Birth stories: a dad's view
Father-of-three Mikael gives us an honest and genuine account of what it's like to be a bystander during childbirth and how it feels to become a dad. Is it really the happiest moment of your life?
Newborn and totally oblivious to their parents' overwhelming emotions.
The other day, my eldest daughter (Stella) asked me what the happiest moment of my life was. I automatically told her that it was when she and her two sisters were born. This got me thinking and I realised that I've never really focused on my own feelings during their births.

I hardly need to tell you that they've been my three most life-changing experiences. Sitting there with a life that you've helped to create. Feeling relief and joy that everything went well. The huge sense of pride. But did I truly experience my happiest moment right then and there?
But did I truly experience my happiest moment right then and there?
Nothing appeared to change on the delivery ward during the ten-year period that my children were born there.
The ward's decor was oddly unwelcoming to new life: anaemic colours, depressing institutional artwork and bland textiles. Uninvitingly shaped furniture in pallid wood. The coffee machine, the only attraction the delivery ward had to offer us sidekicks, was located at one end of the main corridor. It was a faithful old workhorse whose bitter liquid I enjoyed on many occasions, accompanied by muffled agonised screams.

I feel the warmest admiration for those who choose to dedicate their lives to delivering other people's children.
At the other end of the spectrum, we have the hospital staff: the professionals, the heroes, the angels. I feel the warmest admiration for those who choose to dedicate their lives to delivering other people's children. I always had to swallow a lump of sadness when it was time to go home. Not just because I was so profoundly grateful, but because I realised we'd probably never meet again and they were almost certain to forget us. When all's said and done, it's just a job to them. I have never felt such faith and trust in professionals in any other context before. At the same time, I've never felt like such a bit player in my own life.
The pain had made her "vanish" and come back again.
My three daughters mean everything to me. Stella's birth took 20 intensive hours before she was delivered by emergency caesarean. I was in a state of shock and I vividly recall the panic I felt as I sat with a nurse outside the operating theatre and noticed the doctor was wearing rubber boots. Tintin took the best part of one whole day and night to make her appearance. We had to stay overnight and I remember how surreal it was to eat breakfast on the maternity ward among all the new mums and dads. Their ordeal was over. Ours was still to come. I remember thinking how brave Josefine was for keeping it all together. Sammie arrived after just a few hours. But they were intensive hours and I remember how, at the crescendo of one of the strongest contractions towards the end, I heard a cracking sound and met Josefine's surprised gaze. The pain had made her "vanish" and come back again. It was terrible to just sit and watch helplessly. But all the while I was trapped in an emotional vacuum.
That's when the dam has burst and my tears have flown.
It's only afterwards that the feelings have come. When I've been handed my child, wrapped in a blanket, and held her in my arms. When she's lain there and gazed up at me with a wondering expression. That's when the dam has burst and my tears have flown. When I've found myself in the eye of the emotional storm. It's not easy to put into words. But to be totally honest, I wouldn't call this the happiest moment of my life. It's a very strange state made up of equal parts joy, relief and extreme rawness. That happiest moment only comes later, once the emotional storm has blown over and you've arrived home with your tiny new miracle. Once you've landed and feel that it's real, and your new life can begin.

On parenthood: The most important thing for me is that my kids grow up as strong and independent people, that they feel free to be who they are, and are fearless and choose their own path. I want them to be nice and kind people, naturally. But most of all, I want them to live secure and happy lives. I want them to have as much fun as possible and never settle for less than they deserve.

The Trips feature allows employees to organize expenses related to a business trip (i.e. a conference, customer visit, or other work related travel). Each Trip is assigned a name and a date range - any expense that falls within that range can be added to that Trip. Trips are a great way for employees to organize their expenses and they help Admins monitor travel spend, as well as speed up the review and approval process.
How do trips work for employees?
You can create a new trip by choosing the 'Trips' tab and clicking 'Create Trip'. Only employees are able to create, name, and customize the date range for a new Trip.
In your 'Trips' tab, navigate to the upper right-hand corner, and click on 'Create Trip.' From there, you can name the trip, and select the appropriate date range.
Pro-Tip: Make sure you have the most updated version of the Abacus App to add an existing Trip to a new expense!
Expenses incurred during the date range of a Trip will automatically be added into your trip.
If an expense is erroneously added to a trip, you or your approving Admin can remove it.
How do Admins create trips for others?
Admins also have the option to edit or delete trips that have been previously created.
How do Admins review trips?
In the Admin view, you can see your team's Trips in a dashboard by order of date. At a high level, you can see the total number of expenses, expenses with policy violations, total amount spent by a team member, and approval status.
To review and approve the expenses associated with an expense, simply click on the trip and you will be taken to a Live Report of the expenses. If you see an expense that is incorrectly tagged with a Trip you can simply hit 'Edit' and remove it or move it to a different trip for that employee.
Pro Tip: To quickly see a high-level overview of the spending on a trip, hover over the trip on an individual expense, and you will see the total amount of the expenses, their status, and any warnings associated with the trip.
You can also export a CSV or PDF file of expenses tagged with a Trip. Just select all of the expenses in the Trip and select 'Export' from the menu that appears on the right.

Consultation will support Route Review of Creative and Design apprenticeships
Communications campaigns
The Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (the Institute) has today launched a review of apprenticeships across the creative and design sectors. We have launched an eight-week consultation seeking views from employers, apprentices, learning providers and other stakeholders.The reviews ensure well-established apprenticeships continue to deliver high quality training that deliver the skills the employer and the apprentice need to thrive.Those under review include Bespoke Tailor and Cutter; Watchmaker; Spectacle Maker; Bespoke Saddle Maker; Creative Venue Technician; and Broadcast Production Assistant.
Today (31 July) the Institute has launched a major review of apprenticeships across the Creative and Design sectors.
The review starts with an eight-week consultation, closing on the 24 September. Anyone with an interest in the development of these apprenticeships including employers, providers and apprentices, are encouraged to get involved in the consultation. In particular, how the apprenticeships are working and where improvements can be made.
Ana Osbourne, Deputy Director for Approvals at the Institute, said:
"I would like to thank all of the Creative and Design employers and stakeholders who helped develop the broad variety of apprenticeships we have in place so far. We're looking forward to seeing responses to the consultation, which will be crucially important in helping to inform the review."
"The focus of the review will be to improve the quality of our apprenticeships and ensure they are fully up to date with apprenticeship requirements and the needs of both apprentices and employers. This will ensure they're well placed to serve the Creative and Design sector for years to come."
Recommendations to result from the review will be announced in early 2020.
Iain Smith, co-chair of the Institute's Creative and Design Route Panel of sector experts, said:
"This is a fantastic opportunity to help shape the future of apprenticeships in sectors where there are notable skills gaps. I encourage anyone who care about Creative and Design to contribute and encourage others to do to too."
The 15 standards being considered under this review are: Bespoke Tailor and Cutter; Watchmaker; Spectacle maker; Junior Journalist; Outside Broadcast Engineer; Live Event Rigger; Assistant Technical Director - visual effects; Junior 2D Artist - visual effects; Broadcast Production Assistant; Creative Venue Technician; Junior Content Producer; Bespoke Saddler; Organ builder; Live Event Technician; Publishing Assistant.
The first Route Review was on Digital Apprenticeships. The recommendations from the reviews were announced in May.
The Institute launched its second Route Review for Hair and Beauty on Monday 29 July.

Impact Impact Stories Cloud County Ducks Unlimited Grant
Boy Wins Lifetime Hunting License
Ducks Unlimited was awarded a $500 grant from the Seize the Moment Fund to purchase a lifetime hunting/fishing license from the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks to give away to a youth recipient at their annual conservation banquet. This year, the license was given away to Quentin Affolter, age 6, of Clifton, KS.
Their goal with giving away the license is to promote the outdoors and pass along that tradition to a younger generation.
"This grant assists our group in promoting the benefits of the outdoors to youth attendees and is vital in continuing our mission of wildlife habitat conservation," said Josh Meyer, chairman of the Cloud County chapter. "It allows our group to consistently get young people to attend our event and become interested in spending outdoors, as well as the and the importance that volunteering has on our communities."
Since implementing this program, the local chapter has seen an increase in youth volunteers from older winners with youth licenses.
Brown Grand Opera House, Inc.
Thanks to grant funding from the community foundation, Missoula Children's Theatre was able to provide the opportunity for Cloud County youth to participate in a theatre summer program and perform a play/musical to the community.
Smoky Hills Public Television
"We appreciate the community partners recognizing that books in the home are making a profound impact on the low income families we serve," said Kathy Dawson, Head Start Literacy Coordinator.
A grant from the community foundation provided three books to each of the 63 children enrolled in the Early Head Start and Head Start programs in Cloud County.
The Broadway Plaza
Fifty families and children received a special Usborne book, "Big Book of Big Trucks," at the 2019 Broadway Plaza "Touch-a-Truck" event.
The books allow children to continue their learning at home after being able to see and touch the big trucks in person.

I am not a huge fan of party favors at birthday parties and often try to find a way to incorporate party activities and party favors into one. This garbage truck craft was the perfect solution for my son's 3rd birthday.
I got the idea for this garbage truck craft from Pinterest. http://www.pinterest.com/pin/430938258066104219/ Someone had created a similar garbage truck and I took it one step further in hopes of making the garbage trucks a bit more sturdy using wooden dowels for axles and drink lids for wheels.
Step 1. Collect milk and juice half-gallon containers. Milk containers can be a bit stinky so wash/dry really well. For each child/garbage truck you want to assemble at the party, you will need one half-gallon carton, 4 juice lids, 2 pieces of wood dowel, and one toilet paper roll.
Step 3. Measure the amount of dowel needed for the axle and then cut enough pieces for all the trucks. I purchased the dowels at the local craft store.
Step 4. Drill holes into the lids. Size of the whole will be dependent on the size dowel you use. You want the lid to fit very snug on the dowel so no gluing is required to keep the wheels on.
Step 5. Use a screw driver or another pointed tool to make holes for the axles. Size will depend on the size dowel you use for the axles. You wan the hole to be just big enough but not too big.
Step 7. Gather all the pieces and lay them out for the kids to take what they need and then assemble the trucks. Insert dowels into the carton and then attach wheels by pushing them onto the dowels. No glue should be needed.
Step 8. Decorate the trucks! I used tissue paper square, foam stickers, and duct tape for decorations. For little ones, I poured the glue into bowels and had foam paint brushes. I had markers to use to make faces on the toilet paper rolls for drivers. Don't forget to write names on the bottom of the trucks.

A De Soto councilmember apologized by saying that the city simply "forgot" about the need to hold an election. Facing a number of state violations, the city promised to remedy the situation permanently by outsourcing the elections process to a third party. The state provided that the 2009 election must be held by March 2010.[9]

Over the last several years, Residential & Dining Enterprises Senior Associate Vice Provost Shirley Everett and I had met with Brandon Marcello, the director of Sports Performance, to discuss creating a first-of-its-kind Performance Dining initiative on the Stanford campus. As part of this initiative, a Wellness and Performance Dining Nutritionist position was created in Stanford Dining to collaborate on the program. As an alum of The Culinary Institute of America, I also created a strategic partnership with the CIA to help with menu and recipe development and to access the culinary expertise of the CIA's staff of certified master chefs.
Performance Dining consists of six main categories: enhanced immunity, anti-inflammatory components, food synergy, brain performance, sports performance and antioxidants. The Performance Dining program was designed with synergistic food and nutrient combinations and performance themes in mind to help students perform at their mental and physical peak. Wellness and Performance Dining falls under our EatWell program, which encompasses fresh, healthy and sustainable food. The goal of the program, which is open to all students on the dining plan, is to educate students about the relationship between food components, energy output and ability of the body to use food components to improve performance in mind, body and spirit. We also want students, staff and faculty to develop new eating habits that improve their well-being throughout their lifetime. Affecting change in their dining habits through a program of this nature will influence a lifetime of eating behaviors and the eating habits of those within their future influence. This program could become a model for other university dining programs to influence and greatly affect the eating habits of their students.
The cooking suite at Arrillaga is used to prepare food for the dining hall, as well as to cook food to order for the training table during dinner and late-night service. The suite includes a sauté station with two types of gas-fired range tops—open burners and French-top style. The back side of the suite features a griddle, charbroiler and fryer station.
The suite also has an integral bain marie, coolers and freezers. A fire onyx "chef's counter" allows a handful of students to enjoy front-row seats to the alchemy and artistry taking place in the cooking suite. Three high-definition video cameras aimed at the suite can be broadcast on four networked flat-panel screens in the surrounding area to engage large student audiences in the cooking production.
Approaching wellness from a holistic perspective, Arrillaga also has a conference room that doubles as a multipurpose wellness room, with a sprung hardwood floor for classes such as dance, yoga and pilates. A separate study room with a ceiling-mounted projector is used for hosting seminars and classes related to wellness.
Our students enjoy sustainable and healthful food, Performance Dining, menu options catering to dietary or lifestyle restrictions, extended operating hours and customized food cooked to order. In addition the new facility caters to students' overall well-being with spaces that are conducive to wellness, nutrition, culinary excellence, exercise, stress reduction, community-building and relaxation.


(Nanowerk News) Ebola virus, Alzheimer's amyloid fibrils, tissue collagen scaffolds and cellular cytoskeleton are all filamentous structures that spontaneously assemble from individual proteins.
Many protein filaments are well studied and are already finding use in regenerative medicine, molecular electronics and diagnostics. However, the very process of their assembly - protein fibrillogenesis - remains largely unrevealed.
A better understanding of this process through direct observation is anticipated to offer new applications in biomedicine and nanotechnology while providing efficient solutions for pathogen detection and molecular therapy. The formation of protein filaments is highly dynamic and occurs over time and length scales that require fast measurements with nano-to-micrometer precision. Although many methods can meet these criteria the caveat is to measure in water and in real time. The challenge is compounded by the need to have a homogeneous assembly characterised by uniform growth rates of uniformly sized filaments.
A shortened time-lapse sequence of fluorescent micrographs showing a growing protein filament (centre), with the bright round aggregate (left) used as a reference point.
To tackle this challenge, an NPL team devised an archetypal fibrillogenesis model based on an artificial protein whose assembly was recorded in real time using super-resolution microscopy approaches. The findings have been published in Nature Publishing Group's Scientific Reports ("Filming protein fibrillogenesis in real time").
Angelo Bella, Higher Research Scientist in NPL's Biotechnology Group explains: "By being able to continuously image the assembly from the start to maturation we established that protein monomers recruit at both ends of growing filaments at uniform rates in a highly cooperative manner."
The study provides a measurement foundation for studying different macromolecular assemblies in real time and holds promise for engineering customised nano-to-microscale structures in situ.

Located 2.5 miles south of the village of Spring Green, Wisconsin, United States, the 600-acre property was developed on land that originally belonged to Wright's maternal family. Wright designed the Taliesin structure two years after leaving his first wife and home in Oak Park, Illinois with a mistress, Mamah Borthwick. The design of the original building was consistent with the design principles of the Prairie School, emulating the flatness of the plains and the natural limestone outcroppings of Wisconsin's Driftless Area. The structure was completed in 1911. Wright rebuilt the Taliesin residential wing in 1914 after a disgruntled empl...

McGregor Iowa 1870 and 2017 Street Scenes
This video starts with a photo of McGregor in 1870 and then starts with a driving video exiting from Pikes Peak State Park to the bottom of the hill and it turns right onto main street. This video was taken July 4th, 2017, approximately two weeks before an EF1 tornado hit the town on July 19, 2017.
A couple of things you may find interesting is that McGregor, Iowa, is the home town of the Ringling Brothers family. They started by training their dogs to do tricks and it blossomed into a circus known as The Greatest Show on Earth. The circus ran from 1871 to 2017. The video ends with a photo of the circus wagon located near the corner of A and Ann Streets.
If you would like to donate to restore McGregor and help the families affected by the tornado of July, 2017, please contribute to the Restore McGregor 2017 Tornado Fund.

The McKinsey Global Institute released a report early this year detailing how the construction industry is missing out on an additional 1.6 trillion dollars a year because of productivity performance and industrial evolution. They also outline how construction-sector productivity can catch up to the productivity of the total economy adding value and increasing profit. One of the biggest aides to construction productivity is technology, specifically mobile construction management apps because it helps track productivity and manage resources effectively.
Cloud-based construction management software can keep all project data in one place; however, software with corresponding mobile applications allows businesses access regardless of location. Draft field notes or change orders in the field using the app and have those in the office view it once posted. These notes and change orders can then be tracked to see when they're approved or if someone responds to it, this allows everyone on the team the ability to remain connected and keeps everything transparent. The ease of communication between the field and office also helps reduce costs and increase profits, because it will reduce time waiting for information or instruction.
Implementing mobile construction management that allows task assignments and checks completion can help track a project's status better than other methods. Assigning tasks to specific teams based on knowledge of when they're available and how long the task should take also provides for better estimates for the business. Milestone tracking also provides big picture updates or percentage tracking for projects which is easily presented to project managers or clients. Using time tracking or milestone tracking features on a project and sharing it with clients helps keep everyone involved and informed of the amount of time or resources needed for the project and holds the appropriate parties accountable for delays.
Businesses can use easily accessible past and present project information to provide accurate analogous estimates for project bids. Then with the mobile app if anything occurs in the field on a project to require a change order or if the client wishes to change the scope of the project it's easily documented, and the new costs can be quickly calculated and totaled. Using cloud-based software that allows office and field sharing as well as project sharing so clients can see what the cost estimations on change orders or proposed changes means quickly keeps all parties informed about all aspects of the project. Some software even sets alerts so that those in the office and the field know the moment a change order or proposed change is approved allowing for work to resume sooner.
Mobile construction management apps can help manage project and company resources in a variety of ways to better increase productivity. Resource management modules in construction software can allow users to schedule employees and equipment for specific projects and can track real-time changes to it. Using resource management software also can help people in the office or in the field keep track of equipment schedules so that tasks are scheduled when equipment is available and any equipment lost can be tracked back to the last place it was checked out. By allocating resources based on project needs, availability and employee skill level allow for more productive project management avoiding delays from overbooking.
Another way to easily manage construction projects and software is to try software that incorporates all of your business needs. Having construction management app that incorporates all of your construction needs and easily communicates with a business accounting software keeping everything in one place can also increase productivity, especially if the software has its own project file storage source. Having all project files in one location saves time, especially if someone needs to go through old project files or find a specific piece of information. Having all project files in one location that can be accessed from the office or the field, a computer or phone, saves time and money and patience in the long run.
The construction industry might be slow to change and adapt mobile technology to its needs, but this is coming at a 1.3 trillion-dollar loss in value to the businesses that make up that industry. Within the next decade, digitization will save the construction industry trillions of dollars. Adding software and mobile construction management apps now is a business investment that will save time and money by expediting report preparation and other once manual processes.

This unfolding spectacle is in itself a strong condemnation of the entire system of telecom regulation, which leaves too much space for destructive political manipulation. One advantage of a strong system of property rights is that the state's role is limited to enforcing the exclusivity of the property rights, so that millions of dollars are not wasted in trying to shift ceaselessly from one regime to another. ...Of course, the entire regulatory process is fraught with abuses that in individual cases could leave the established rates either too high or too low. It follows therefore that with the first whiff of competition a strong case arises for dispensing with the rate regulation process altogether. In the short run, this might lead to higher rates, but, in the long-run, innovation from new entrants will tend to drive rates down to a competitive level that is likely unattainable under sclerotic rate regulation systems.

South Australia Holidays
Famous for its wine regions and the produce that stems from them, South Australia is where the Down Under's wild side really shines.

And then there's Kangaroo Island – where koalas, echidnas and of course kangaroos are the main residents. Or, if it's rugged landscapes you're looking for, it doesn't get any wilder than the Ikara-Flinders Ranges National Park – home to nature's grand amphitheatre: Wilpena Pound.

When to Go to South Australia
We love the 'Festival State' all year-round – there's always something to do here, from food and wine celebrations to concerts. Generally, you can expect hot and dry weather in the north and cooler temperatures in the southern coastal regions, including Adelaide. The state capital is officially the driest due to its long, hot summers but still receives up to 540mm of rainfall each year. Fear not though – with the rain comes the chance to see even greater numbers of wildlife around the mainland and on Kangaroo Island.

I am a unique and versatile actor who loves performing in all aspects of acting. As a kid acting was something I never thought I would pursue as a career but instantly fell in love with it at school and discovered I had a talent and ability to transform myself into roles I could never imagine myself doing. I went on to study further at college at the Rotherham college of arts and technology before eventually going on to the university of Lincoln. I now believe the time is right and im ready to showcase my skills to audiences, directors and casting agencies and hopefully gain valuable experience in the arts world. I can't wait to start my journey and no role/part would be too big or small for me to challenge myself. I'm enthusiastic full of energy, ambitious and extremely hard working.


Today's memory verse gives us a glimpse of what God's kind of love is all about. This scripture reveals one truth about God's kind of love, which is that it is unconditional.
God loves unconditionally, and His love prompts Him to forgive unconditionally! If God had chosen to wait until we became saints before extending His saving love to us, no one would be saved.
Some years ago, one of my sons illustrated the unconditional nature of God's love. In his place of work, his secretary did something unprofessional, and so he moved him out of his office to another role within the department.
While suspending this man from his role as secretary, my son strangely instructed him to hold on to the computer he had been working with, and told him to retain all the files that were on it.
He then begins to list the characteristics of God's love. Only God's type of love suffers long and shows unusual kindness.
God is sovereign and all-powerful, so He needs not envy anyone, neither does He need anybody to pump up His ego.
Nothing could be further from the truth! God's kind of love is what Paul instructed Timothy to demonstrate in fulfilling his ministry, by reproving, rebuking and exhorting those he was ministering to with all longsuffering and doctrine (2 Timothy 4:2).
My advice to you is that you embrace God's love as personified by His Son, Jesus Christ, who died for the sins of the whole world.
Father, let Your love be shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit in Jesus Name.
Please let's love one another for love is God ,from henceforth i change my perception over this as minister of the Gospel. Thank you Daddy.
For God so loved the world John 3:16. The greatest attribute of our God is Love.Please as a child of God let us emulate our Father by giving our love ❤ unconditionally.

August 1, 2018 Gateway Pundit 0
Georgia Democrat, Stacey Abrams, a former state representative, acknowledged that she owes more than $200,000 in personal loans, credit card debt, and IRS back taxes. She even admits that she did not understand that credit cards incur interest. Abrams owes back taxes amounting to $40,201 for 2015 and $13,851 for 2016. She owes $96,512 in student-loan debt, and another $77,522 in credit-card debt spread over nine different accounts. In spite of this, she has gained popular support with Democrats who apparently feel she is a good choice for Governor who, in turn, has a major influence over the state's finances. Oh, yes. She advocates free college education for all. -GEG
Stacey Abrams was the guest of honor at the Democrat "Way to Win: 2022 Victory Party" at the party's annual spring conference.

It's a socialist's dream.
Stacey wants to run the Georgia economy.
But she is deeply in debt. Stacey owes $96,512 in student loan debt and $77,522 in credit card debt.
Bizpac Review reported:
The former state representative has acknowledged that she owes more than $200,000 in student loans, credit card debt and IRS back taxes.
"I did not understand that those magical slivers of plastic that I was getting in in college, a $100 purchase was going to cost me like $3,000 over the next seven years," Abrams statedin an interview with Yahoo Finance. "And that if I didn't pay the bill every month it was going on some report that was going to follow me even after I had a great job."

Has Dollar Has Lost Half Its Value in the Last Few Years?

Top Registry Cleaner 2014 - Which is Best?
Software tools evolve and 2014 sees the generation of PC cleaners to help fix system errors on Windows based computers. How does this affect my ratings for the year to come and is there new programs out there to knock off the best rated RegCure?
My lab tests indicate that in order to properly diagnose, fix and correct slow performing PCs new software should be able to do three things. Firstly the ability to properly set up the Windows start Manager in a quick and easy way where even the most novice computer user can see what processes at starting up when Windows is loaded from boot up.
This is often underestimated because people presume a hardware fault or virus is the cause and although there is the possibility that a terminal main board or memory stick failure is the source of the problem you can save an expensive trip to a PC repair store by eliminating program faults first – remember that good tools offer a free scan functionality where a deep scan covering the whole of the hard drive and any external devices connected.
A scan can reveal all types of potential problems including fragmented files that need organizing back into their correct location on the C drive.
With terabyte space now the standard in most home and gaming PCs it is best to buy a good powerful cleaner that is up to the job. Your purchase should come with regular updates that can deal with the latest threats and errors on Vista, XP, 7 and 8.
Utility tools are always handy including roll back or restore where you can set your system to an earlier restore point of a few days ago, on board defrag tool (which is a per-requsite when picking the Top Registry Cleaner 2014) that un-clutters C drives and a file manager that can tell you what programs you need in order to open files locked on your computer because you do not have the necessary applications.
Anti Malware (malicious software) should also be part of a professional cleaning tool as what is the use of scanning for potential threats if the program can do nothing to get rid of the infections that exist in the depths of a computer. Malware comes in many forms such as viruses, rootkits, keyloggers and worms – most users do not realize that these are installed on their PC but can prove to be very damaging including the increased risk of identity theft.
A self updating database is required to run along an anti virus program – keeping your system updated with the latest fixes is constantly on-going so if you wish to buy the best tool this then RegCure has a free database upgrade wizard ensuring that all the latest threats can be seen by the tool. Read the RegCure Pro review from Mike.


Sensitive teeth hurting you? You can cure that with some simple changes.
If you've ever drunk a cold lemonade and felt a tingling sensation afterward, you might have sensitive teeth. Sensitive teeth develop two ways: Gum lines recede or enamel erodes. Enamel and gums act as outer shields protecting dentin, the layer beneath the enamel in your tooth. Dentin is full of tubules that lead down to your root nerves. When hot or cold food or drink contacts the dentin, your nerves erupt in pain [source: Carr].
Unlike some dental diseases related to age, tooth sensitivity can appear at any time, but most often affects those aged 25 to 30 [source: WebMD]. Not to worry. Sensitivity is curable with proper treatment and time. If your teeth don't recover after a month of good care, consult your dentist because you might have a nerve problem.
But during that month, begin self-treatment by picking the right toothpaste.

"It's just a miracle," Concordia Trainer William Hall said of the boxes of Adidas gear that arrived on the college's Selma, Ala., campus about 11 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 26.
All 62 people on the bus — players, coaches and the bus driver — escaped unharmed when the vehicle blew two tires, igniting the gas tank and setting the bus on fire en route to Birmingham, Ala., on Saturday, Sept. 21. (See Reporter Online story, "Concordia, Selma, football team escapes burning bus.")
To read more about the gift from Adidas, see the AL.com story "Outpouring of support for Concordia—Selma culminates in new equipment from Adidas."
The Green Bay Packers also plans to donate equipment to the Hornets. The professional football team wears the same colors — green and gold. A Packers representative called Concordia, Selma, Sept. 27 and offered gold pants and socks, which are expected to arrive before Homecoming on Oct. 5.
Local high schools — including Jefferson Davis in Montgomery, Morgan Academy in Selma, and Dallas County in Plantersville, Ala. — also donated equipment to the Hornets.

Announcing the Margaret H Release
March 13, 2012 /0 Comments/in Product Announcements/by Gleb
Following the transition of Mifos from the Grameen Foundation, we're pleased to announce the first major release of Mifos fully supported by community members. This release will be code-named Margaret H in recognition of Margaret Matinde, one of the many women that Nuru Kenya has been empowering to rise up from extreme poverty.
Margaret Matinde has been a Nuru client for three years. Throughout this time, Nuru gave her the ability to save and the opportunity to take out a loan to start a successful restaurant business. Now instead of struggling to provide for her children, she can send them to school and focus on building their future. For the past year and a half, Nuru has been using Mifos to administer loans and savings accounts to clients like Margaret through their Community Economic Development program. Rebecca Herrington and her team have been an active and engaged community member throughout the transition.

One of my favorite exercises that I've performed every year since he first introduced it is Chris Brogan's Three Words. Rather than create resolutions which are difficult to keep, the three words exercise puts together three words that form your mantra for the coming year. My twist on it is to restrict it to just verbs, because verbs are actions to take. I like the three words as an easy way to remind myself of what I'm supposed to be doing, if I find that my mind and focus have wandered.
For example, in 2022, my three words were invest, research, and cultivate. By making them verbs, I could ask myself for any given decision if what I was choosing would accelerate my progress towards a goal, encourage me to create something, or help me experience something more deeply.
That said, that's unique to me only, and that restriction doesn't apply to anyone else. You could choose, for example, end state goals as your words, like wealth or opportunity or friendship. Do whatever will help you move forward on your big goals.
How did I do in 2022 with these words?
Invest. This one went well. I invested, and not just financially. I invested time into things that mattered, relationships that moved ahead my personal life and professional life.
Research. This went exceedingly well. 2022 was a bounty of a year when it came to learning new things, researching stuff, exploring new frontiers. From generative AI to new parts of the R programming language to conducting 50+ weeks of original data and research, 2022 was bursting at the seams in research.
Cultivate. This was all about habits, cultivating habits to sustain efforts over the long term. I ran over 300 kilometers in 2022 (which is not bad for someone who hadn't been a runner before the pandemic), my longest annual distance yet.
Compared to 2021, 2022 was personally a great year (even if the macro pictures was a big bucket of WTF).
So, with that retrospective, what are my three words for 2023?
Release. There's a ton of stuff that's just laying around, personally and professionally. Resources that I haven't done anything with, stuff I've made, things I've accumulated. This year, it's all about releasing it in one way or another. For some things, that means pushing them out of the nest, shipping stuff; for other things, it's about giving them away or just letting them go, knowing that their time has come.
Revoke. There are people, concepts, ideas, and things in my head, in my life that don't need to be there. Part of this year is revoking their access, cutting ties, removing permission for them to be there. It's not just passively letting them go, but actively revoking their privileges. The block button? It's going to get a lot of use. One of my favorite singers, Jewel, has this great line from "A Life Uncommon": no longer lend your strength to that which you wish to be free from. That's the motto of Revoke.
Renew. This year, so much is going to change. So much has to change. Professionally, the world of marketing data and analytics will go through conniptions with major, enforced changes like Google Analytics 4. Personally, the efforts I've made the last 3 years for my health need to continue, to accelerate, so I will renew those efforts (already clocked my first 5K for the year on day 1!). Friendships, relationships, habits – many things that went well in 2022 need to keep going, need to get renewed. Many old things from years past need to be refreshed, given new life again because they work and it's time to upcycle them to something new.
Remember, the three words, should you choose to do this exercise, are guideposts, not iron-clad rules. Things happen – like global pandemics. Even small scale things, on the order of us as individuals, can make the best-laid plans go totally off the rails. So if and when life throws you a curveball, don't hesitate to change your focus either.
Whatever and however you choose to celebrate the turning of a page in time, I hope your 2023 is an improvement over 2022.

On June 25th 2009, the world lost a legend, a true fallen idol. You could not have grown up in the 80′s and not be inspired by his music, his moves or how he completely changed the music industry as we knew it. Michael-mania lived in all of us.
To commemorate his life and celebrate his accomplishments, my cousin organized and coordinated an amazing tribute party that was truly "off the wall".
Everyone attending was asked to pay homage by dressing the part, and I immediately went online in search of something a little different that I could continue to wear long after the party was over. Luckily, I found a vintage shirt that was worn in the beat it video…and it was my size.
I contacted the shipper to find out the package had been returned to sender as undeliverable…and due to unknown circumstances, the item could not be redelivered in time for the party.
Screw it! I'll make my own shirt. It's what I do.
I quickly made a call to a friend who owns a screen printing business and asked him if he could produce a one-off shirt for me.
The shirt received a lot of attention throughout the night and was the topic of many discussions…SKULLebrities was born. Born from death.

Ferritin Identified In Parkinson's Neuromelanin Granules
Evidence of ferritin in the neuromelanin granules in Parkinson's disease affected brain cells has been observed for the first time. A team of researchers from the University of Bochum working under the auspices of Prof. Katrin Marcus and in close collaboration with colleagues in Munich and Würzburg made the finding.
Neurons that produce the neurotransmitter dopamine are the cerebral cells that most commonly die-off in Parkinson's disease.
The cells in the so-called substantia nigra, which contain the dark pigment neuromelanin, are affected. It is also known that the iron content of these cells increases during the course of Parkinson's disease.
Ferritin is an iron depot protein that had only been proven in the supporting cells of the brain to date, but not in neurons.
Dark Cerebral Matter Fades
Investigation of the human brain discloses a distinct dark discoloration of the substantia nigra and locus coeruleus within parts of the brainstem. This is due to the bluish to brown-black pigment neuromelanin, which is only present in the human brain and that of a few other mammals (primates, cows, horses, some breeds of sheep).
Research into neuromelanin is particularly interesting because the substantia nigra of patients with PD fades in color during the course of the disease. The pigment is most common in dopaminergic neurons, which mostly die-off in PD patients.
Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter. Motor control is impaired if dopaminergic cells decay.
This in turn results in the symptoms typical of Parkinson's disease such as resting tremor, increasing postural instability and poor coordination of general movements.
Neuromelanin Granules
After the researchers from Bochum and Würzburg had been able to clarify the composition and production of the neuromelanin granules four years ago, they began investigating the inner life of neuromelanin granules in greater detail.
The significance of the currently obtained data is that the selective necrosis of the dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra is accompanied by an accumulation of ferrous ions (Fe3+).
The homeostasis of the iron content is evidently damaged and this intensifies as the disease progresses. Elevated quantities of free Fe3+ result – inter alia – in an increased formation of cell-damaging free radicals which ultimately leads to necrosis of the cells.
Neuromelanin is capable of bonding ferrous ions (and other heavy metals). For many decades, it had been uncertain whether the cells are protected by the pigment "intercepting" ferrous ions, or whether the accumulation of the iron was actually responsible for damaging the cells.
Data gained during the past few years indicates that neuromelanin primarily plays a protective role for the neurons.
Iron Accumulation
During the current study, the scientists thus investigated whether there could be a further mechanism for the accumulation of iron in the substantia nigra over and above the direct binding of the Fe3+ to neuromelanin.
For the first time, they were now able to supply evidence of ferritin in the neuromelanin granules using a combination of diverse techniques (one-dimensional SDS gel electrophoresis, targeted mass spectrometry, western blot analysis, as well as immune transmission electron microscopy). To date, this important iron depot protein had only been proven in glia but not in neurons.
Prof. Katrin Marcus concludes that ferritin in the neuromelanin granules is a further significant element in the homeostasis of the iron content in the substantia nigra.
This first direct proof of ferritin in neuromelanin granules in dopaminergic neurons is an important step towards an improvement in the comprehension of the iron metabolism in the human substantia nigra. It moreover supplies arguments for new hypotheses concerning the mechanisms of the iron-regulated degeneration of the substantia nigra in Parkinson's disease.
The scientists are currently investigating further unclarified issues, such as how the composition of the neuromelanin granules changes with increasing age and during the course of the disease. Moreover, they are trying to elucidate the exact function of the neuromelanin in the cell, and why only the neuromelanin-containing cells in the substantia nigra die-off.
