During a weekend stay in Sheffield, where I had an overnight due to a Mike & The Mechanics concert, the National Videogame Museum (NVM) in the Southern Yorkshire town was one of the top-of-my-list attractions. Being a gamer since my early years and still owner of www.final-match-tennis.de, a website about the likely best tennis game ever, this was just a must-visit. Here is my review.
The National Videogames Museum is located in the heart of Sheffield. If you arrive from the outskirts of the city or do not feel like walkting, the tram station Castle Square is more or less right in front of the entrance.
The museum opens Friday, 12:00-17:00 hrs, Saturday and Sunday 10:00-17:00. There are extended opening time during school holidays and selected Friday nights. Admission for adults is 11 GBP. You receive a stamp on your hand so that you can leave the exhibition and come back at the same day.
The Museum is like a large hall. At the rear wall, there are a couple of arcade machines. I was especially surprised that Track & Field is still working (you have to massively push buttons in this Decathlon game). There are other classics like Street Fighter, Tetris, Virtua Tennis III and Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing. All machines were working.
Apart from the arcades, there are several group of video game consoles. Instead of the original machines, the museum sometimes uses emulators. Most games are grouped to topics. For example, one group was about designing video games in video games or Hammer Boy on four different platforms. There is also an Nintendo NES to play the shooter Duck Hunt and an area where you can play Rock Band. There is also an area with text adventures. For all games, there is a small description and manual.
The most interesting – and challenging – area for me was the table with the most challenging video games ever. One game presented, for example, was the so simple, but tough Super Hexagon. I spent a lot of time with QWOP, in which you need to run 100 metres by explicitly moving the legs of a runner. Sounds easy? Try it on the game’s website, it is a browser game (I made some 20 meters as my record).
Other areas show alternative games (like one where you need to “kill” enemy light on a long LED light beam – much better than it sounds. There is also a limited collection of video gaming memorabilia like the legendary Samba de Amigo for Sega Dreamcast. One of the showcases even has a collection of Furbies.
If you need a break from gaming, there is a small cafe which gives you a chance to rest. The bathrooms are quite fine, as well. Of course, you may spent your final money in the souvenir shop.
You might leave the place very quickly if you are not in gaming – you may end up with having seen a couple of consoles, emulators and arcade machine. If you like gaming, you will love to spent some time in the National Videogames Museum. It is not as posh as Hub Zero in Dubai, but therefore maybe more charming. To me, it is no Top Pick, though. It has a lot of museum character, but I just don’t feel the necessary level of rarities. There is no PC Engine, no Vectrex – two consoles, which revolutionized the history of gaming. Even Pong is missing.
The space is limited, the museum shows some definite milestones, but they could do even better. Nevertheless, I had more than three enjoyable hours in their place, so it is definitely not a bad one!

Based on a memorial stone in the cemetery, the cemetery was donated by Abraham Soop in 1832. It was formerly called Pleasant View Cemetery but was later returned to the name Soop Cemetery. The land lays on the edge of Belleville Lake behind the Diamond Back Bar off of I-94.
Elizabeth Soop is known to haunt the cemetery. It is said she practiced some sort of witchcraft in her lifetime. Her headstone is said to have two hands pointed down to symbolized her evil practices.
We began our investigation using a ghost meter, audio and video recorders to see if we could capture anything in the cemetery. The sun was really bright so we were not able to look at the video screens while filming.
We started to talk about the various stones and a few minutes later we captured, “Whatcha doing?” We did not hear this on our own and the walking through the leaves may have caused extra noise.
We then was able to make our way to Elizabeth Soop’s plot and while we were there we attempted some video. Three video recorders stopped working so we ended up using a cell phone for video while Patti did a dowsing rod session. You will here Brenda state that she saw a mist by Patti on the cell phone video. The video shows it a bit but you have to look very hard to see the mist. Patti reported feeling energy near her head at the same time. We tried to recreate a mist thinking it could be our breath due to the temperatures, but we were not able to.
One photo we took by the plot looked like a face of a baby in the leaves. We can’t say it is or isn’t paradillia due to the interactions we had at that spot.
We then returned to the RV and attempted an SP-11 Session. We appeared to be unsuccessful in gathering any communication at that time.
Patti then attempted a dowsing rod session to see where the rods would lead us since we felt we were not getting anything on the meters. Her rods took us to an unmarked grave then back to Elizabeth Soop. The rods would spin in circles at her plot.
Ace then went off on his own for a bit with the rods and came to the grave of a Civil War soldier and another grave of a woman named “Sophia”. He told them he was bringing back his friends, but Sophia appeared to just want to communicate with Ace.
We made it known before we left that no one was to follow us home. It seemed like Elizabeth wanted to follow based on the responses of the dowsing rods.
Upon leaving the cemetery, we took notice of some ravens landing near Elizabeth Soop’s plot. Was it a sign for us? We may never know.
“Hey” the audio recorder was left running when we went to check on something.
Video captured during paranormal investigation.
It was a very interesting site and challenges all the equipment used in Ghost hunting. We believe we came into contact with a couple of spirits but we do not know who exactly they are based on the EVP’s. We were happy to debunk the symbolism on Elizabeth’s Soop’s grave which did not appear to have anything to do with Witchcraft and happy to see that she has visitors.

Looks like Apple’s recent purchase of crowdsourced location data company Locationary was part of a twofer mapping acquisition. The company also acquired online transit-navigation appmaker HopStop. HopStop’s area of cartographic expertise: Mass transit directions, something Apple’s mapping service doesn’t currently offer.
“Apple buys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans,” Apple spokeswoman Kristin Huguet said, confirming the acquisition with Cupertino’s standard boilerplate.
At last count, HopStop had two million monthly active users and launched a Waze-like service for reporting real-time delays and other information.
Founded in 2005, the company makes apps for both Apple and Android that cover more than 300 cities. In addition to public transit, it includes walking, biking and taxi options — basically, everything but driving yourself.
HopStop was one of the companies we mentioned as part of a larger feature earlier today on the possibilities for mobile crowdsourcing after Google bought Waze.

Adult Acne Around The Mouth: What Causes Acne Around the Mouth and Jaw line?
Many men and women today suffer from adult acne. In women, hormonal acne is usually found around the mouth, jaw line and the chin region. When it comes to getting rid of acne around the mouth; there is no definitive cure, since what works for one might not work for another. Hence, the topic of today’s discussion is treating acne around mouth and chin region quickly and also finding effective solutions to get rid of it once and for all.
Acne around the mouth: is it preventable?
The good news is that in majority of the sufferers, acne around the mouth and chin region is highly preventable. This is because; in 90% of the sufferers, such acne the can be attributed to wrong cosmetic products including lip balms, sulfate rich toothpastes, make-up products etc. Also; women who tend to sleep with their makeup on are more likely to suffer from such acne.
In the remaining 10% sufferers, acne around the mouth and chin region can be attributed to hormones, stress, and other health conditions. This is generally harder to treat and needs an integrated approach to cure. Many women suffer from hormonal acne all their life: as teenagers at the onset of puberty, after childbirth due to changes in hormones and again during menopause.
A dermatologist can help identify the exact cause of the peri-oral acne. Accordingly, one might have to change their brands of toothpastes and/or lip balms, wash the face twice a day using warm water and acne-specific cleansers and follow a makeup removal routine at bed time. In fact; a regular cleansing-toning-moisturizing routine is of utmost importance for treating and preventing adult acne around the mouth, chin and jaw line.
As stated before, change all makeup products you are using. Opt for hypoallergenic toothpastes, lip balms and cleansers.
Always wash and wipe the mouth and chin area carefully after eating or drinking acidic foods and beverages.
Never touch the pimples and zits around the mouth as this will spread the bacteria causing breakouts in the healthy areas as well.
Remove surface oils, makeup and cosmetics every night using a good cleanser like CeraVe® or Cetaphil. If needed, talk to your dermatologist for the right cleansing products.
Use oil free SPF based moisturizers during the day and avoid excessive sun exposure. This is an important step to avoid acne around the mouth.
Always keep spot-treating acne medicine at hand and apply it on the zits around the mouth and chin area. These usually contain salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide and can help treat zits quickly to prevent scars.
In case of adult acne around the mouth and on the chin, Retinol based products have been proven highly effective. They contain derivatives of vitamin A and can help unclog pores to treat existing acne and prevent new ones. A thin layer applied every night can help reduce existing blemishes while preventing new zits. Retinol is available by prescription as well as over the counter.
It is vital that you remain consistent when following a home-skin care routine. If this fails to show results, make sure you see a dermatologist. Often, what you might think is adult acne could be dermatitis, pruritis or other skin allergies. Additionally, a dermatologist can also recommend the right chemical peels, laser treatments and oral/topical products to heal and reduce the acne around the mouth.
Do not shave if you have cystic acne on the jaw line and chin. Use a sharp razor always to avoid leaving hair behind in the pores.This is a common cause of acne on the chin in men.
Do not touch or pop the pus filled zits on the chin; this will only make matters worse.
Try to switch your toothpaste and after shave products as SLS (sodium laureth sulfate) is an ingredient known to cause acne around the mouth.
If the acne is severe, do see a dermatologist as soon as you can. S/he might prescribe topical tretinoin and/or oral medicines as these are some of the best known methods of curing blemishes and zits on chin and around the mouth in men.
Acne on the chin around the mouth and jaw line can be distressing for both men and women. However, it is also treatable and preventable. We hope this guide helps you get rid of acne around the mouth once and for all.
Why is Adult Acne on the Rise? It’s Almost Like An Epidemic!

Representative Nate Walker (R-Kirksville) says Missouri is going to become a second class state if transportation funding isn’t improved. He says urban state lawmakers are out of touch with the transportation needs in rural Missouri.
“In north Missouri and throughout rural Missouri, we have big issues with transportation. Our bridges are bad and our roads are bad. I think we need to address transportation as a priority,” said Walker.
Walker says fulfilling the state’s infrastructure needs goes hand-in-hand with economic development.
“We won’t have economic development or anything else and everything will suffer,” said Walker.
The Senate has given initial approval to a bill that would ask voters if the state’s fuel tax should be increased from 17 cents to nearly 23 cents per gallon. A final vote is expected Monday.
House Republican leadership opposes a tax hike to pay for roads and bridges.
Missouri’s fuel tax is one of the lowest in the country.

Note: SendGrid is included on the Business Tier.
SendGrid is an email relay service that takes the pain out of setting up a secured relay and works from anywhere. When using SendGrid, PensionPro has the ability to analyze and troubleshoot possible errors that might arise when sending a Blast Email.
Using relays from other major mail vendors can impose daily rate limits and will not allow someone to send emails on behalf of others which is very limiting when sending out email blasts. If hosting your own email server, chances are that you will spend a lot of time setting up your relay, it will only work within your office, and you will have to pay someone to configure it. If an IT Specialist spends 2 hours setting up a relay (which is a very low estimate), that cost could cover using SendGrid for two years.
The cost of SendGrid is $10 per month, which will allow for 10,000 emails per month, and the fee will be added to your monthly PensionPro billing. We take care of the entire setup process and generally can have it up and running within 48 hours. If interested, please reach out to us on the Help Center.

Alexander Jannaeus (also known as Alexander Jannai/Yannai; Hebrew: יהונתן "ינאי" אלכסנדרוס, born Jonathan Alexander) was the second Hasmonean king of Judaea from 103 to 76 BC. A son of John Hyrcanus, he inherited the throne from his brother Aristobulus I, and married his brother's widow, Queen Salome Alexandra. From his conquests to expand the kingdom to a bloody civil war, Alexander's reign has been generalized as cruel and oppressive with never ending conflict.
Alexander Jannaeus was the third son of John Hyrcanus, by his second wife. When Aristobulus I, Hyrcanus' son by his first wife, became king, he deemed it necessary for his own security to imprison his half-brother. Aristobulus died after a reign of one year. Upon his death, his widow, Salome Alexandra had Alexander and his brothers released from prison.
Alexander, as the oldest living brother, had the right not only to the throne but also to Salome, the widow of his deceased brother, who had died childless; and, although she was thirteen years older than him, he married her in accordance with Jewish law. By her, he had two sons, the eldest, Hyrcanus II became high-priest in 62 BC and Aristobulus II who was high-priest from 66 - 62 BC and started a bloody civil war with his brother, ending in his capture by Pompey the Great. Like his brother he was an avid supporter of the aristocratic priestly faction known as the Sadducees, his wife Salome on the other hand came from a pharisaic family (her brother was Simeon ben Shetach a famous pharisee leader), and was more sympathetic to their cause and protected them throughout his turbulent reign. Like his father Alexander also served as the high priest. This raised the ire of the Rabbis who insisted that these two offices should not be combined. According to the Talmud, Yannai was a questionable desecrated priest (rumour had it that his mother was captured in Modiin and violated) and was not allowed to serve in the temple according to the rabbis, this infuriated the king and sided with the Sadducees who defended him. This incident led the king to turn against the pharisees and persecute them until his death.
Alexander's first expedition was against the city of Ptolemais (Acre). While Alexander went forward to siege the city, Zoilus, ruler of the coastal city Dora and Straton's Tower took the opportunity to see if he could perhaps save Ptolemais in hopes of gaining territory. Alexander's Hasmonean army quickly defeated Zoilus's forces with little trouble. Ptolemais and Zoilus then requested aid from Ptolemy IX Lathyros, who had been cast out by his mother Cleopatra III. Ptolemy founded a kingdom in Cyprus after being cast out by his mother. The situation at Ptolemais was seized as an opportunity by Ptolemy to possibly gain a stronghold and control the Judean coast in order to invade Egypt.
Ptolemy landed a large army for the relief of the town; but Alexander met him with treachery, arranging an alliance with him openly while secretly he sought to obtain the help of his mother against him. When Alexander formed an alliance with Ptolemy, Ptolemy in good gesture, handed over Ptolemais, Zoilus, Dora, and Straton's Tower to Alexander. As soon as Ptolemy learned of Alexander's scheme, he invaded the Galilee region capturing Asochis. Ptolemy also initiated an attack upon Sepphoris but failed.
Alexander might easily have lost his crown and Judea its independence as the result of this battle, had it not been for the assistance extended by Egypt. Cleopatra's two Jewish generals, Helkias and Ananias, persuaded the queen of the dangers of allowing her banished son Ptolemy to remain victorious and she entrusted them with an army against him. As a result, Ptolemy was forced to withdraw to Cyprus, and Alexander was saved. The Egyptians, as compensation for their aid, desired to annex Judea to their country, but considerations touching the resident Egyptian Jews, who were the main support of her throne, induced Cleopatra to modify her longings for conquest. The Egyptian army withdrawn, Alexander found his hands free; and forthwith he planned new campaigns.
Alexander captured Gadara and the strong fortress Amathus in the Transjordan region; but, in an ambush set for him by Theodorus, ruler of Amathus, he lost the battle. Alexander was more successful in his expedition against the Hellenized coastal cities (what had once been Philistia), capturing Raphia and Anthedon. Finally, in 96 BC Jannaeus outlasted the inhabitants of Gaza in a year-long siege, which he occupied through treachery, and gave up to be pillaged and burned by his soldiery. This victory gained Judean control over the Mediterranean outlet of the Nabatean trade routes.
The Judean Civil War initially began after the conquest of Gaza by Jannaeus around 96 BC. Due to Jannaeus's victory at Gaza, the Nabatean kingdom no longer had access to the Mediterranean Sea. Alexander soon captured Gadara, which caused the Nabateans to lose their main trade routes leading to Rome and Damascus. After losing Gadara, the Nabatean king Obodas I launched an attack against Alexander in a steep valley in Gadara where Alexander barely managed to escape. After Jannaeus was defeated in the Battle of Gadara against the Nabataeans, he returned to Jerusalem only to be met with fierce Jewish opposition.
After Jannaeus succeeded early in the war, the rebels asked for Seleucid assistance. Judean insurgents joined forces with Demetrius III Eucaerus to fight against Jannaeus. Alexander had gathered 6,200 mercenaries and 20,000 Jews for battle as Demetrius had 40,000 soldiers and 3,000 horses. There were attempts from both sides to persuade each other to abandon but were unsuccessful. The Seleucid forces defeated Jannaeus at Shechem. All of Alexander's mercenaries were killed in battle, and Alexander was forced to take refuge in the mountains. In sympathy towards Jannaeus, 6,000 Judean rebels ultimately returned to him. In fear of this news, Demetrius withdrew. Nevertheless, war between Jannaeus and the rebels who returend to him continuned. They fought until Alexander achieved victory. Most of the rebels died in battle, while the remaining rebels fled to the city of Bethoma until they were defeated.
Jannaeus had brought the surviving rebels back to Jerusalem where he had 800 Jews, primarily Pharisees, crucified. Before their deaths, Alexander had the rebels' wives and children executed before their eyes as Jannaeus ate with his concubines. Alexender later returned the land he had seized from the Nabateans in order to have them end their support for the Jewish rebels. The remaining rebels, who numbered 8,000, fled by night in fear of Alexander. Afterwards, all rebel hostility ceased and Alexander's reign continued in peace. Jannaeus died from the illness of quartan ague in the bounds of Ragaba in Transjordan.

text: Intersystem crossing (ISC), formally forbidden within nonrelativistic quantum theory, is the mechanism by which a molecule changes its spin state. It plays an important role in the excited state decay dynamics of many molecular systems and not just those containing heavy elements. In the simplest case, ISC is driven by direct spin–orbit coupling between two states of different multiplicities. This coupling is usually assumed to remain unchanged by vibrational motion. It is also often presumed that spin-allowed radiationless transitions, i.e. internal conversion, and the nonadiabatic coupling that drives them, can be considered separately from ISC and spin–orbit coupling owing to the vastly different time scales upon which these processes are assumed to occur. However, these assumptions are too restrictive. Indeed, the strong mixing brought about by the simultaneous presence of nonadiabatic and spin–orbit coupling means that often the spin, electronic, and vibrational dynamics cannot be described independently. Instead of considering a simple ladder of states, as depicted in a Jablonski diagram, one must consider the more complicated spin-vibronic levels. Despite the basic ideas being outlined in the 1960s, it is only with the advent of high-level theory and femtosecond spectroscopy that the importance of the spin-vibronic mechanism for ISC in both fundamental as well as applied research fields has been revealed with significant impact across chemistry, physics, and biology. In this review article, we present the theory and fundamental principles of the spin-vibronic mechanism for ISC. This is followed by empirical rules to estimate the rate of ISC within this regime. The most recent developments in experimental techniques, theoretical methods, and models for the spin-vibronic mechanism are discussed. These concepts are subsequently illustrated with examples, including the ISC mechanisms in transition metal complexes, small organic molecules, and organic chromophores.

We all tend to spent plenty of time in front of the mirror, fixing our make up or the hair. It’s because how our hair looks makes very big difference on the complete image of it.
However, the proper care of the hair is going to make it healthy, voluminous, and shiny. In the treatment of the hair, the most beneficial oil is castor oil, since it is abundant in Omega-9 fatty oils that support the health and the growth of the hair.
In addition, this wonderful oil is high in ricinoleic acid which has very powerful anti-fungal and antibacterial properties, fights bacteria and fungi and on that way it accelerates the growth of the eyelashes, eyebrows, and the hair as well.
Moreover, castor oil is great in the case of scars. It has the ability to boost the production of elastin and collagen, it moisturizes the skin, and makes it rejuvenated, shiny, wrinkle-free, and soft.
Since it’s naturally thick, castor oil should be dissolved in a bit of some carrier oil such as almond or coconut oil.
So, combine the oils and apply the mixture on the scalp, on the eyebrows and on your eyelashes, from the roots all the way to the tips of the hairs.
This treatment needs to be done before you go to bed. Leave the mixture to act during the night, and in the morning wash it off with warm water.
Very soon you will notice the positive effects of this wonderful treatment!

I’m Chrissy, the founder and CEO of LEVO. LEVO is a device for infusing oil and butter at home, without the mess. Each day brings a new adventure, but I generally spend most of my time keeping this ship afloat and managing details of our finances, production, and manufacturing! I thrive off the feeling of productivity and love materializing an idea in my head (AKA bringing LEVO to life!).
When did you get started working with cannabis?
I had the idea for LEVO in 2011 when I had a light bulb moment watching a group of friends struggling to infuse. It took all day, was a complete mess, and the smell… let’s just say there was a lot left to be desired. I saw an opportunity for an oil infuser to transcend various industries and promote overall wellness, which I’m passionate about. We have a saying, “an herb is an herb is an herb.” There’s so much power that naturally occurs in plants and in our own bodies. I’m fascinated by the possibilities!
LEVO aims to make a common issue more convenient so that more of us can incorporate plant medicine into our daily lives.
I had my path laid out far in advance since I was a young girl: go to this college, acquire this job, go on this employment trajectory. LEVO was NOT in that life plan. But – thanks to migraines and nerve damage in my arm – I developed a passion for discovering new, natural paths to wellness. Topicals were more effective than various prescriptions I had, as were other herbal remedies. If you can use a plant over a pill, why wouldn’t you?
I’d say a lot of obstacles only exist in my head, until I figure out a way around them. Certainly that’s been the case for the greatest one’s I’ve dealt with to date!
There’s so much power that naturally occurs in plants and in our own bodies. I’m fascinated by the possibilities!
New industries offer a unique opportunity to make a tremendous impact. Further, your standing is merit-based thanks to the lack of legacy and bureaucracy. I hope people of all sexes, colors, sizes, and walks of life know they are welcome and can succeed – especially in a uniquely progressive, fresh industry!

Will Wix Make Web Designers Obsolete?
Let’s hope not, right? I’m not worried as long as self-hosted WordPress sites are still popular, and I don’t see WordPress going away anytime soon. WordPress, the free content management system (CMS), currently powers roughly 25% of all websites which is far beyond the nearest competitor. Despite its dominant market position, WordPress is only becoming more popular over time. In my experience, developers who once dismissed WordPress as insecure and unprofessional now support it as their primary CMS. Therefore, the website design and development market may not be changing as radically as it sometimes appears; there is still a high demand for professionals who design and code websites.
Do-it-yourself website builders such as Wix will help non-technical people who have extra time, but not money, to build their own websites whereas web designers like me get to focus on helping individuals who have money but not time (i.e. businesses).
Wix is an example of Software as a Service (SaaS). Other SaaS brands include Weebly, Squarespace, Shopify, and BigCommerce. There are limitations to all of these platforms when you get into the meat of the service. A user may realize that his or her goal just isn’t supported by the toolset currently available from the software provider, but since their site is locked into the service provider’s proprietary software, the user has to wait months or years for the feature to be released (if it does get addressed by the service provider at all), or start from scratch elsewhere. With Shopify, for example, as of this writing, you can’t do something as simple as create a category more than one level deep; you can’t have Products > Clothes > Socks > Wool, for example, in a hierarchy like that. Shocking, but true. Their software just isn’t built that way. These limitations are one area where WordPress soars. There is an enormous community of developers filling functional gaps every day. Many, if not most, problems with WordPress are a Google search away from a solution. The limitations of SaaS platforms will be negligible for some users and deal-breakers for others. While Wix and similar tools will continue to evolve and allow non-technical users to publish a website (for a recurring monthly fee), a market demand will remain for businesses like mine to create flexible, scalable websites at the right price. I haven’t seen anything yet that can compete with the overall value of WordPress considering cost, flexibility, and developer support.
All of that said, Wix and services like it are great for many use-cases, and those platforms will undoubtedly grow at the expense of website design businesses that can’t compete at similar price points. While I’m not concerned about Wix obviating my job anytime soon, I know how important it is to stay sharp and keep a relevant skill set. The digital landscape is constantly changing. At one time, I would have loved using a service like Wix. I know the pain of trying to get online with a shoestring budget and I fully support tools and services that empower people to do so.

With today’s rapidly changing workplace, emerging technologies and new scientific issues, K–12 educators are challenged to prepare themselves and their students for the future.
Since 1994, NCABR’s Rx for Science Literacy workshops have helped more than 4,800 educators from 95 of North Carolina’s 100 counties do just that.
At the workshops, educators tour a research facility, hear from scientists about their latest research advances and take home a free curriculum and other bioscience education materials.
Each workshop is completely free to attend. You may attend as many workshops as you like.
The Rx for Science Literacy series is open to all K–12 science teachers and administrators in North Carolina as well as preservice teachers actively pursuing a degree in education.
Rx for Science Literacy is partnering with the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) and the National Environmental Education Foundation (NEEF) to present Your Environment, Your Health, a one-day workshop based on the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
The workshop will explore findings from the NIEHS Gulf Long-term Follow-up Study (GuLF STUDY), which examined the health of workers and volunteers who responded to the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. The GuLF STUDY, sponsored by the National Institutes of Health and led by NIEHS, was designed to find answers to the questions that matter to oil spill response and clean-up workers and affected communities. The study examined how different aspects of oil-spill response and clean-up affect current and future health. The study also examined how stress and job loss because of an oil spill can affect health, including mental health. By comparing workers doing specific clean-up jobs to others who did not do those jobs, researchers learned if health problems are occurring at a higher rate than expected among some groups of workers. The findings from this study may influence long-term public health responses in Gulf communities or responses to other oil spills in the future.
This engaging and informative workshop will feature hands-on activities, toolkits and resources developed by NIEHS and NEEF, plus a tour of NIEHS. Workshop attendees also will have an opportunity to meet a NEEF representative and to receive information about the NEEF “Hands on the Land” program, which is a national network of field classrooms.
Rx for Science Literacy is partnering with Duke University to present a one-day workshop featuring an overview of NCABR’s regenerative medicine curriculum, plus updates from biomedical scientists about the real-world applications of regenerative medicine research underway at Duke University.
In this engaging and informative workshop, participants will learn about the critical role that regenerative medicine plays in protecting the health and well-being of North Carolinians and citizens across the globe. Participants also will learn about current research and issues that impact regenerative medicine.
Participants will receive a free copy of NCABR’s highly acclaimed Rx for Science Literacy curriculum manual, which contains the featured regenerative medicine curriculum.
This workshop is most applicable to high school teachers and those teaching advanced middle school students.
Rx for Science Literacy is partnering with the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences to present Chemicals, the Environment and You. This one-day workshop is based on a curriculum developed by the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. The curriculum focuses on the science of toxicology to help students understand the relationship between chemicals in the environment and human health. It also conveys the influence of chemicals on the health of living organisms.

Are you tired of being the skinny guy? Do you want to gain muscles and develop a more attractive physique?
A common issue men struggle with is that they feel like they're too skinny. In fact, men are more likely than women to consider themselves underweight and focus on getting more muscle tone.
If you've been hitting the gym day after day and still don't have those defined arms you're after, you need to learn how to gain muscle the right way. There's a lot of factors that go into building muscle.
Even if you are getting your workout right, you might not be taking in the right nutrients or supplements that aid in building muscle.
Read on for all you need to know about gaining muscle.
Want to know how to gain muscle?
You can do everything right in the gym, but if you're not getting enough calories you won't see any muscle gain. Food is equally as important as working out. To gain muscle, you need to be taking in a higher amount of carbohydrates and calories.
But eating more calories doesn't mean eating whatever food is in sight. What you eat is just as important. A diet high in junk food will gain you unwanted fat instead of attractive muscle.
When it comes to your diet, timing is just as important as the quality of nutrients you're taking in. You need to eat nutrient-dense carbs around your workouts and avoid those starchy carbs when you're inactive. This type of eating routine, with the inclusion of high amounts of protein, will keep you healthy and give you more energy to carry you past your workouts and throughout your day.
Eat about 300-600 calories for a high-carb meal before your workout. Include carbs such as sweet potatoes, oatmeal, brown rice or quinoa. Eat another meal like this after your workout to gain muscle even quicker.
Gaining muscle requires taking in higher amounts of protein. A good goal to reach for is to take in one gram of protein per pound of body weight every day. Get your protein from sources like chicken and lean meats, beans and nuts and protein powders.
Split up your protein intake to 20-25-gram portions throughout the day. Always consume protein before and after your workouts.
It may seem like you're eating a lot of food, and that can be hard to do sometimes. Protein shakes are a great way to get a lot of calories without feeling like you're stuffing yourself.
You need to be working out the right way.
Anyone who wants to gain muscle needs to be lifting weights. When you consistently stress your muscles, they grow and get bigger to accommodate for the stress you continue to put on them.
You don't even have to do that many weight-lifting exercises to start gaining muscle. As long as you're using a heavy weight that is challenging to you, you'll activate your muscle fibers and stimulate muscle growth with just a few exercises.
Get a personal trainer or workout with a buddy to have someone that holds you accountable in lifting heavy weights. Having someone there is also safer when you're lifting heavy. Aim to use a weight that will exhaust your muscles by the end of a set.
In addition to following a weight-lifting routine, keep in mind to mix up your workout once in a while. Try changing things up after three or four weeks to stress your muscles in different ways.
It's also important to mix things up in your daily workout to challenge your muscles. Incorporate strategies such as explosions, bouncing, supersets and negatives to see better results in muscle gain.
Supplements are great to pair with your eating and exercise routines to enhance your muscle gaining ability. You should be able to get plenty of nutrients, vitamins, and minerals from the food you eat, but supplements help when you're constantly burning calories but trying to gain muscle.
As mentioned before, protein is significant in building muscle mass. It's important to choose a good protein powder that you can digest well.
Other supplements to consider include amino acids, creatine, canitine, citruline and beta-alanine. A testosterone booster is also extremely effective for putting on muscle mass.
Supplements do not act as a substitute for nutrition and exercise, but they're meant to be taken in addition to a good diet and workout routine to enhance your muscle-gaining results.
When you're stressing your body so often, sleep is incredibly important. Getting enough sleep allows for proper growth-hormone release. Sleep is your body's way of recovering from the stress of a workout.
Plus, all that extra food you're eating? You're more likely to store it as fat if you're not getting adequate sleep. Sleeping well allows you to build more muscle and store less fat. Aim to get seven to nine hours of sleep each night.
In addition, stretch and massage your muscles during your rest period to enhance recovery between workouts. Use a foam roller to roll out your sore muscles and increase blood flow to those areas.
As you can see, there is a lot that goes into gaining muscle. All of these components must be used together in order to see effective muscle gains.
You can eat well and exercise right, but if you're not sleeping enough you won't see any changes. Likewise, you can be taking the right supplements, sleeping and exercising, but you still need enough real food and extra calories to build muscle.
Remember to implement all four of these tips, and those skinny arms will be transformed into the bulging guns you've always wanted.
To learn more about gaining muscle, check out our exercise guides and supplement reviews for the best information on developing the body you desire.
How many hours of sleep do I need to have a proper muscle recovery?
7 to 9 hours of sleep each night would be fine.

Circular forms of RNA are much more abundant in platelets than previously thought, reports a new study.
Scientists in the UK and Kuwait probe novel forms of ribonucleic acid (RNA) to try and understand them more.
RNA transfers genetic code sequences from the DNA to ribosomes, which translate them to manufacture proteins required for the body’s cell processes. Recently, researchers have identified novel circular forms of RNA (circRNAs) that seem to be more stable and less vulnerable to degradation than their linear counterparts, making them excellent candidates as biomarkers.
The scientists from multiple universities in the UK and the Kuwait Medical Genetics Centre studied how the stability of circRNAs in platelets, tiny circulating cell fragments important in coagulation, affects their numbers relative to linear RNAs. Platelets cannot produce new RNAs because they lack a nucleus.
“Levels of circRNAs are massively increased in platelets relative to levels of linear RNAs coming from the same genes; up to around 3,500-fold in one instance. And for some genes it looks as if there is virtually no linear RNA in platelets at all,” says Michael Jackson from the Institute of Genetic Medicine at Newcastle University in the UK.
The results suggest that degradation of linear RNA is extensive, that previous measurements of some linear RNA levels are inaccurate because they included measurements of circRNA, and that more sophisticated methods that target intact linear RNAs are needed for future analyses, says Jackson.
Other studies had previously suggested that 50% of reported circRNAs are artefacts, but this study shows that they’re not.

LIGHT RECIPES FOR YOUR SPRING MENU. THE PEPPER AND GARLIC IN THE BEANS AND THE PANCETTA AND PASTA WITH THE PARMIGIANO ROMANO CHEESE PAIR WONDERFULLY WITH OUR CINQUE BORDEAUX BLEND. A LIGHTER RED WINE ALSO GOES WELL WITH THESE RECIPES AS THEY ARE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE. ENJOY!
Wash and stem the beans, cut diagonally. Fill a large pot with water, 3/4 full. Bring to a boil; add the salt and the string beans. Cook until just al dente, still firm. Drain and set aside. Wash and slice the cherry tomatoes, set aside.
In a large skillet heat the oil; when hot add the garlic. Saute the garlic until golden then add the red pepper flakes and the tomatoes. Shake the pan to move the tomatoes all around, cook for five minutes. Add the olives and cook for five more minutes. Add the oregano and string beans. Sprinkle with salt, stir well to coat the beans, cook for about 8-10 more minutes and serve at once.
Cut the broccoflower in half. Remove the core and cut the florets into smaller pieces. Wash and drain in colander. Cut the pancetta into small cubes. Crush the garlic and remove the skin. In a small skillet, heat the olive oil, add the pancetta and cook stirring occasionally until it begins to render the fat. Add the garlic and the red pepper flakes and continue cooking until the garlic is golden. Remove from heat.
Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the florets and cook for 8-10 minutes. Add the orecchiette and cook for 12 more minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving one cup of its cooking water. Transfer back into the same pan, add the pancetta with it rendered fat. Over medium heat, stir the pasta and the sauce to coat completely for about one minute. Stir in the cheeses. Serve immediately with additional cheese if desired.
*A broccoflower looks just like a cauliflower but it is green. It is more flavorful than the white cauliflower. There is also another variety which has pointy florets and is known as Romanesco.

2017 – a new year, what’s new?
As another year comes to a close (where did it go?) we take a look at what 2017 has in store for us?
In a nutshell, we see 2017 as the year when digital marketing comes of age. Where over 70% of all internet traffic will be video and the ‘convergence’ of web, video and social media will be the hot topic for most businesses.
Looking back at 2016, this was the year that mobile devices and TV’s got bigger. Smart phones became almost mini tablets and large screen TV’s effectively turned the living room into a personal Cineworld (but without the kids and popcorn).
It was also the year that mobile video really took off, especially among younger viewers, who chose it as their ‘first screen’ This was influenced by the fact that around 50% of all video views are now on a mobile device.
There is no doubt mobile is the future. This is borne out by the United Nations who say that over 50% of the world will have access to broadband by the end of 2017, citing it as ‘the fastest growing technology in human history’.
In 2017, this convergence of technology will mean that video (from TV advertising to livestreaming) will be viewed across all device not just one. This is something that some mainstream broadcasters, such as Sky and Channel 4, already recognise. They’ve ensured that all output is ‘all in one place, designed from the ground up’ while others are struggling to monetise their delivery output.
2016 also saw the battle of the Livestreamers with Twitter, Facebook and You Tube all sparring up to be the platform of choice for live video broadcasting. No outright winner yet but plenty of bruised losers slumped in the gutter.
For example, Meerkat pulled the plug, during the year, losing its investors $12m, despite launching a month before Twitter owned Periscope and Blab, who claimed to have 3.9m daily users also called it a day. Both casualties of early adoption and not fully understanding the fickle nature of the marketplace.
‘Build it and they will come’ might have worked for Kevin Costner but is unlikely to be an effective strategy for creating a sustainable marketing platform. Meerkat’s CEO, Ben Rubin, who is no stranger to live streaming, said his platform failed because it lacked consistency while Blab’s Shaan Puri claimed that most live streams were boring and did not engage with their audience.
He says, ‘the struggle is to show something that is truly awesome – and now. In my opinion, Twitch is really the only platform that has so far got it right, streaming live games’.
However, even with these early casualties, indications are that 2017 does appear to the year for a live streaming revolution, certainly Mark Zuckerberg seems to think so. He is banking on the decline of TV viewing (especially by 18-24 yr olds) to spur live streaming into becoming an integral part of social media. Something that comes out loud and clear from their current TV advertising.
He backs this up with recent research, that found viewers watch live streams x3 times longer and comment x10 times more than regular video. He also points out that around 3000 people are, at any one time, watching the NASA live stream from the International Space station.
It means that just because we can does not necessarily mean we should. We are constantly bombarded with content, much of it irrelevant and uninteresting. To grab our attention businesses have to work hard to create ‘awesome’ content that people actually want to see.
Take them behind the scenes, give them an exclusive peak of your new product / service, tell them about the latest gizmo that will help their business but whatever you do, ensure you engage with your audience. This will help create more followers, extra shares and positive customer feedback, all leading to increased sales.
What else can we look forward to in 2017?
During the summer of 2016, the marketing media was full of AR being the hottest ticket in town. Admittedly, this was based largely on the phenomena of Pokemon Go where, in the first 3 weeks of its launch, the app. was downloaded 50 million times on Android alone.
Launched in July, it was hard not to miss hordes of people running around trying to capture a Pikachu. However, by the middle of August it had lost a third of its daily users and by September had seen its daily downloads decline from a peak of 27 million to less than 700,000.
A summer fad as far as the game is concerned but does this mean augmented reality is dead as a marketing tool?
Not according to the experts. According to those in the know. AR will be embraced by a diverse number of sectors in 2017. These include consumer packaging, retailing, healthcare, architecture as well as entertainment and events. A case of ‘watch this space’.
However,the one thing that underpins all marketing success is listening to what people (are trying to) tell you. Whether it’s game players as in the case of Pokemon Go, users of live streaming platforms or endorsements from satisfied customers.
One area that is likely to see a major sea change, despite what Apprentice finalist Jessica Cunningham may say, is the paying of celebrities to endorse your products. In 2017, it is expected that this practice will become even less effective as a marketing tool.
Consumers understand that such endorsements are rarely believable and are certainly not a barometer of quality and reliability. There is now much more of a reliance on social media influencers prior to making a purchase.
This is becoming equally relevant to both B2b and B2C markets as the role of decision makers’ and ‘consumer’ become increasingly blurred. Businesses now realise that it’s especially important to engage their audience with meaningful conversations, that are relevant and topical, rather than aiming for large number of followers and volume mentions by high profile celebrities and prolific bloggers.
Finally, is 2017 the year when Print hands over to digital as the dominant media platform?
Not yet, is the answer.
However, as traditional media becomes less relevant and social media increasingly becomes the ‘mouthpiece’ of the influencer, there is a definite need for businesses to realign their media metrics. Previously, the number of viewers or readers was the primary acknowledgement of success. Today, it’s all about engagement with the target audience, via interactive content, sharing, feedback and click throughs.
So does this mean traditional media is dead?
Even with the growth of digital platforms, research from Nielsen indicates that print is far from dead. They found that consumers are embracing both and while newspapers still remain largely a print medium, for example, the Sun and Daily Mail still sell around 1.5m copies each day, savvy publishers have become multi-platform content providers. For example, the Times has a print circulation of 404,000 and 400,000 paid subscribers while others (such as the Independent and the local ‘South Yorkshire Times’) have moved totally on line.
So will this decline follow through for magazines in 2017?
Not necessarily. It’s true that average UK magazine circulations dropped around 5% in 2016, but some titles actually grew sales. Surprisingly news and current affairs was one sector. For example, in 2016, Private Eye saw its highest circulation in 30 years and even Readers Digest gained 15% more readers.
In fact, over 60 UK magazines (and this does not include local publications) increased their readership in 2016. Admittedly a lot of this was due to aggressive marketing such as free pick-ups or slashing the cover price, a tactic that helped Cosmo grow its circulation by 57% year on year.
The success of print magazines largely depends on the demographics and locality. Local magazines such as Sheffield’s ‘Exposed’ – aimed at the (18 – 35) clubbing and culture market has a print circulation of 10,000 and 17,000 on line subscribers while other Publishers such as Bauer feel that 13 – 18 year olds don’t read print and are consequently moving print titles such as M and Twist to digital only.
Watch this space regarding the widespread use of new technology such as AR and VR, video content is now viewed on multiple devices so audience profiling becomes even more important, live streaming will be dominated by the big three and become a seamless part of social media communication and relevant and topical content (nothing changes) continues to be king.

The Birmingham Inner Ring Road was completed in 1971.The aim was to remove trunk road traffic from the citycore by building a 3.5 mile road around the centre, punctuated by roundabouts at seven junctions. Although seen as a classic improvement of its time, the 'Concrete Collar' is now seen as an impenetrable barrier between the city cantre and the surrounding neighbourhoods. In particular for pedestrians who are required to use the hostile and intimidating psubways at the roundabouts.
Since 1988 Birmingham City Council has adopted a policy of remodelling of the ring road. This has been undertaken to recreate links between the city centre and the neighbouring areas; enable city centre activity to spread into those areas; improve the pedestrian environment across the city, with an emphasis on shifting vehicular movements out to the middle ring road.
Some of the most notable aspects of the scheme are lower Paradise Circus to create a new pedestrian link to Centenary Square and the International Convention Centre; re-create the Old Square as a pedestrian space on the route from the City Centre to the Law Coutrs area; remodel Smallbrook Queensway, including the removal of subways, to create a much improved pedestrian link to the Chinese quarter of the city.
New routes improve the Pedestrian experience in Birmingham.

Back in January, the lovely and talented Lili Wilkinson won a Stonewall Book Award Honor in the Children’s and Young Adult division for her young adult book (and U.S. debut) PINK, a lively and resonant look at a teen’s attempts to don a new personality and figure out who she really wants to be. What a treat to be able to share her remarks here, read at the Stonewall’s ALA Annual celebration by Lili’s wonderful editor, Anne Hoppe.
“Good evening. My apologies for not being here – Australia is a very long way away.
I’d like to start by thanking the Australian publisher of Pink – Allen & Unwin, in particular my editors Jodie Webster and Hilary Reynolds.
And if it’s not too awkward for her to read this out loud, I must also thank the wonderful Anne Hoppe and everyone else at HarperCollins. Pink is the first of my books to reach American shores, and you have given it such a warm welcome and loving home. Thank you for the gorgeous cover. Thank you for putting it into the hands of teenage readers. Thanks especially for your help in translating the book into American while keeping its Australian setting and flavour.
And of course thanks to my fabulous agent Kate Schafer Testerman, for working so tirelessly to find my books homes in the US.
The book is dedicated to publisher and writer extraordinaire David Levithan, and I wanted to take a moment to explain why.
Many years ago David came to the Reading Matters conference in Melbourne, which I used to help organise. David made an impassioned speech about how teachers, publishers, parents, librarians and other “gatekeepers” have a responsibility to help young people kill the vampires.
… This was pre-Twilight, I should add.
David was referring to a song called Die Vampires Die from an off-Broadway musical called Title of Show. A vampire, in this case, is “any person, thought or feeling that stands between you and your creative self expression.” They creep around and whisper in your ears, saying things like “Your teeth need whitening. You went to state school? You sound weird. Shakespeare, Sondheim and Sedaris did it before you, and better than you.” They tell you you’re not good enough, and you can’t help believing them.
One of the ways we could help young people kill these vampires, suggested David, was by making sure that every teenager could see themselves reflected on the shelves of their libraries and bookshops. And, in his opinion, when it came to books about gay teenagers, we were failing to do that.
The speech received a standing ovation, and I’m proud to say that the Australian publishers, teachers and librarians in the room listened, and since then things have started to change.
But I got to thinking. I’d read books about gay teenagers. Not many, certainly. But I had read a few – David’s not least among them. But I couldn’t think of any books I’d read about the teenagers who aren’t sure. And really, who’s sure about anything when they’re sixteen? I wanted to write a book for those teenagers. I wanted to write a book that said – there are some things you never have to definitively decide on. You don’t ever have to put yourself in a closed-off, past-the-point-of-no-return box, and you really don’t have to do it when you’re sixteen. It’s okay if you’re not sure.
Books about girls often don’t win awards. We focus a lot of our attention on getting boys reading. I visited an all-girls secondary school recently where not one book was studied that featured a female protagonist. And funny books with pink covers are even less likely to catch the attention of academics and awards judges. When you get home, have a look at how much academic analysis there is of authors like Meg Cabot, Maureen Johnson, Cathy Cassidy or Louise Rennison. Is it because their books are shallow and insubstantial? Cabot’s The Princess Diaries is about a teenage environmentalist who brings democracy to a small European principality. Just because a book is funny and romantic, doesn’t mean it has nothing to say.
I love writing about strong, funny, flawed girls who are curious about the world. I love writing romance. I love writing books that make the reader think, that encourage them see the world in different ways.
Which brings me back to Pink, and to my thank yous. More than anything, I want to thank the judges that saw fit to recognise Pink. It means so much to me that a funny, romantic pink book from the other side of the world is to be given such a prestigious honour, to sit alongside amazing writers like Brian Farrey, Ilike Merey, Paul Yee and of course Bil Wright.
The importance of organisations like the American Library Association, and awards like the Stonewall, cannot be overestimated, and as an author I am immensely proud to have that sticker on my book. It’s also lovely that it matches the cover.
Thank you, Lili! We’re honored to be your publisher, and inspired by your words.

MIX THESE TWO INGREDIENTS AND SAY GOODBYE TO SINUSITIS, RHINITIS, INFLUENZA, PHLEGM AND MANY MORE!
Sinusitis is a medical state that causes swelling and inflammation of the sinuses. They are blocked with fluids on which bacteria grow, bringing nasal congestion and pain. Pressure around the eyes, nose, and face is felt, as well as headaches can occur. Moreover, there might appear thick yellow discharge from the nose and fever and cough in rare cases. In order to avoid the side effects of the pharmaceutical medicines, you may want to try a natural option.
How to prepare it: grate the ginger and then mix it with ACV. Place it in a jar and close the lid tightly. Let it act for 10 days at a room temperature, shaking the jar occasionally.
How to use it: inhale the mixture for 5 minutes, and then moisten a handkerchief into the mixture, placing it on the neck. Let it act during the night. This method should be followed for 5 days. You will be able to get rid of phlegm, influenza, rhinitis, and sinusitis naturally without any meds.

A rare solo performance by one of jazz's great originals, Canadian pianist Paul Bley, recorded live at the Oslo Jazz Festival in 2008 by Jan Erik Kongshaug and Manfred Eicher. There is nothing else quite like a Paul Bley concert. As the New York Times noted, "Mr. Bley long ago found a way to express his long, elegant, voluminous thoughts in a manner that implies complete autonomy from its given setting but isn't quite free jazz. The music runs on a mixture of deep historical knowledge and its own inviolable principles". Here Bley, encouraged by an attentive and enthusiastic Norwegian audience shapes music in the moment, plays his own compositions, and brings the music to a fine conclusion in a performance of Sonny Rollins' Pent-Up House.
The solo medium is one that Bley first broached on ECM. The 1972 recording Open, To Love was to prove one of the defining works in the unaccompanied genre, and at least as influential in its way as Paul’s classic jazz trio albums of the 1960s’s – such as Footloose!, Touching, Closer – had been. 35 years would elapse before the release of a ‘sequel’ at ECM, Solo at Mondsee, with Bley’s kaleidoscopic transformations of standard themes in a series of variations.
Bley’s vision of musical freedom – as Play Blue again makes plain – is inclusive. Even at the height of the 1960s free jazz movement, Bley argued that the aesthetics of earlier jazz could and should be incorporated by a revolutionary art form. His discography and his live appearances have made the case ever since, with radical, intelligent music whose phrases can reference the blues or bebop, Berg or Bird, Ayler and atonality. In or out of the tradition he still sounds like irreducible Bley in every line. His touch is instantly recognisable.

Solo in Oslo, Bley, encouraged by an attentive and enthusiastic audience, shapes music in the moment, plays his own compositions, and brings the performance to a fine conclusion in an inspired interpretation of “Pent-Up House”, composed by his one-time employer Sonny Rollins.

TENNIS legend John McEnroe has put his luxury Malibu mansion up for rent for a hefty £one hundred,000 per month.
The ocean-entrance residence, which has its personal library, will appeal to the astronomical payment within the peak summer time months of June, July and August.
Nevertheless, it's a snip at simply £forty three,000 per month for the remainder of the yr. Discount.
McEnroe and 80s rocker spouse Patty Smyth bought the house within the Paradise Cove space in September 2015 for £15million.
The multi-degree, elevator-outfitted residence has 4 bedrooms and 4 loos in 6,445square-ft.
There’s additionally a chef’s kitchen, an workplace and a local weather-managed wine room.
All three visitor bedrooms have ocean views and the penthouse-degree main bedroom even has a balcony.
Whoever opts to splash the money on the mansion may have a few well-known neighbours too.
Nation music stars Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood reside within the gated group, together with The Lego Film producer Jon Burton and worldwide financier Vivi Nevo.
McEnroe and Smyth personal TWO different properties in Malibu alone, with one even in the identical complicated.
In early 2013, the couple purchased a £2.4m "ranch-type" home on a landlocked 1.5 acre plot of land.
McEnroe nonetheless owns a home on the guard-gated Colony enclave that he shared with first spouse Tatum O'Neal.
On prime of that, he and Smyth – who married in 1997 – personal a two-acre property within the upmarket Hamptons group of Southampton, Lengthy Island, NY.
That home set the pair again £3m again in 1999, however they did promote a one-bed room house in New York for £2m.

Pets are vitally important in the lives of their caretakers. Your animal companions add a unique dimension to your lives, so your desire to see that they are properly cared for is admirable.
You ask what would happen when you die, but Texas law allows you to plan for after death and to plan for disability. If both of you were to become suddenly ill, you need to have an emergency care plan. Who will feed and see after your pets if you are hospitalized? If you were to gradually decline, you want to keep your pets nearby for love and therapeutic value but need someone to supervise their care (if you cannot drive, you cannot take your pets to their vet appointment). If you were to die, you must at least know who will take your pets and how they will afford to pay for necessary care.
Talk to your Elder Law Attorney about an updated Durable Power of Attorney. Give your Agent written permission to take custody of and to provide care for your pets should you become ill. That Agent should be authorized to use your funds to purchase supplies, pay veterinary bills, and pay a caretaker for your animals (if the Agent is not going to be the caretaker). You may want to make a special Limited Power of Attorney for a backup caretaker, separating the pet care issues from your general financial issues.
Select a backup caretaker for your pets. Be sure that person agrees to the role and gets to know your animals. Arrange for that person to check on your status regularly. Make a written record of your animals’ health care and wellness routines. Provide instructions for emergencies, listing the vet who has their records, their medications, their diets, and their exercise needs. Give a copy to the backup caretaker.
Talk to your Elder Law Attorney about a formal Pet Trust. Texas law specifically allows you to set aside funds to care for your animals, so long as the amount is not excessive. (Remember Leona Helmsley’s $12 million trust for her dog was challenged in court and ruled to be excessive.) A Pet Trust can provide for any companion animals who were alive while you were alive, but Texas law does not allow you to provide for their offspring. The Trust must end upon the death of the last of your pets, and any remaining funds must be distributed as you direct.
The Pet Trust can be included as part of your Will or as part of your Living Trust. A Living Trust would require the Trustee to provide for your personal needs and to provide for the welfare of your pets if you become ill. A Will with a Pet Trust is effective only after you die, providing for the welfare of your pets. If you put the Pet Trust into your Will, then it is doubly important that you have a Durable Power of Attorney which gives your Agent authority to care for your pets.

Slimming should lead to better health as well as external appearance.Some people focus so much on their weight that they resort to methods that pose a threat to their health and sometimes even to life.No matter how much you want to lose weight, you should avoid the ideas below.
The bulimia theme is often discussed in the media.It would seem that every person should be aware of the danger of provoking vomiting in order to get rid of the previously ingested meal.Meanwhile, some people think that this behavior is not bad if it is not repeated often.Not everyone is aware of how difficult it is to refrain from provoking vomiting if it happens several times.Contrary to the prevailing myth, vomiting is provoked not only by young girls.Those who do not want to provoke vomiting, try to get rid of the food they eat by using laxatives.Such products should only be used in case of digestive problems.Overuse them leads to dysregulation of the digestive system, which undoubtedly does not facilitate weight loss.
Ephedrine is a component of medicines used to treat respiratory diseases.Unfortunately, the substance is sometimes used in other situations, including during weight loss.Ephedra, in combination with caffeine, suppresses hunger.Among the effects of excessive food ephedrine should be mentioned psychotic episodes, convulsions, palpitations, tachycardia, anxiety and increased psychomotor excitability.Although ephedrine-containing medicines are available on prescription, some people manage to get it from illegal sources.Undoubtedly, ephedra should be considered as dangerous methods of weight reduction.
Read also: Caffeine versus other stimulants!
Nearly everybody has heard about tapeworm larvae.The fact that the sellers of such funds continue to gain customers proves that not everyone is aware of the consequences of their use.The tapeworm diet is not new because it appeared in the thirties of the last century.Such slimming consists in swallowing tablets, in which there are tapeworms or eggs, obtaining from farm animals.An adult tapeworm reaches a length of 4 to 20 m and is a deadly threat to the human body in which it is found.On the Internet, you can find stories of many people who would pay for such slimming life or were close to death.
The negative impact of cigarettes on health does not raise any doubts.It is difficult to understand, therefore, some people decide to smoke to help them lose weight.Nicotine actually reduces the appetite for some foods, and smoking itself replaces some of the eating habits.However, one should consider whether it is worth to expose smoking health problems to speed up weight loss.What’s more, smoking negatively affects the appearance.Even if cigarettes help in obtaining a slim figure, you will probably have to deal with such problems as deterioration of the skin and discoloration on the teeth.A reminder of this weight loss will also be the smoking habit, which is difficult to cure.
Another dangerous weight loss aid is the Caucasian moroznik, also known as the Caucasian hellebore.You can buy it in Poland and at a low price.The moraznika contains bufadienol glycosides that affect the heart muscle in a similar way as foxglove.Ingestion of an excessive amount of hellebore leads to arrhythmias, atrial fibrillation and delirium, so it is a serious threat to life.The use of such a supplement is therefore not sensible, especially if we take into account the fact that there are equally effective but very safe slimming supplements on sale.
Sibutramine is a substance whose sale in Poland is illegal, but some import it from other countries.Formerly, the inhibitory appetite for sibutramine was used to treat obesity.After some time, it turned out that the substance causes many side effects, dangerous for life and health.Among the side effects are insomnia, headaches and dizziness, hypertension, anxiety, taste disorders, impotence, menstrual cycle disorders, alopecia, and even atrial fibrillation and depression.The medicine containing sibutramine was withdrawn when studies confirmed that the use of sibutramine increases the risk of heart attack, stroke and cardiac arrest.
The use of the above methods poses a threat to health, and in some cases also to life.Before trying any of them, ask yourself whether it is worth it?With the help of an experienced diet and trainer, you will certainly be able to get rid of excessive kilos without using such dangerous methods.
