New Delhi: Delhi health minister Satyendra Jain asked the homeopathy fraternity if they could come up with a "permanent" solution to tackle dengue which affects hundreds of people annually in the national capital alone.
"Homeopathic system of medicine is capable of healing most of the diseases of the time. Delhi has been facing a dengue problem, if homeopthy comes up with any permanent solution for the prevention of dengue it would be a great help to humanity," he said.
He was addressing a gathering at a symposium on dengue and homeopathy here, jointly organised by the Board of Homeopathic System of Medicine and Delhi Homeopathic Federation on Sunday, according to a statement.
................................ Advertisement ................................
Mr Jain further said the AAP government will focus on providing "more fund and attention to its AYUSH programme in order to make homeopathic system more popular. May 16 is being observed as National Dengue Day.
Several experts present at the symposium were of the view that homeopathy has a large scope in both effective prevention and treatment of dengue fever thereby reducing the disease burden in the country, and tangentially, also reducing the overall cost of preventive programmes carried out by the Central and state governments every year during the wave of dengue epidemic in the country.
................................ Advertisement ................................
It was mentioned that Central Council of Research in Homeopathy (CCRH) ran a preventive trial in the first ever reported worst year of dengue outbreak in 1996, and the results were reassuring.
Homeopathic remedies have the effect in "improving" the platelet counts in haemorrhagic dengue, which can result in the fall in the platelets and can even cause death, they said.
"Homeopathy is very effective in cases of dengue. We have both types of treatment-preventive and curative," claimed A.K. Gupta, president of Homeopathic Medical Association of India (HMAI) Delhi.
At least seven cases of dengue has been reported in the national capital with five of them in the first 10 days of April, according to a recent municipal report.

Dengue and such diseases are easily preventable diseases provided administration is serious about eradicating the awefull sanitary and hygenic environment in the capital city of delhi. though treatment part is also important, it may come from any system of medicine.
Very true. Prevention is always better than cure. Authorities should take all preventive meaures. Awareness camps and strict preventive measures to be taken.

Signs to Look Out for to Know If You Have an Indigo Child
Indigo children are born with a much higher level of consciousness and are enlightened souls, who will renounce archaic paradigms and dogmas for the sake of positive development.
Rohini Mohan
Last Updated: Oct 06, 2017
'Indigo Child' was a term coined by Nancy Ann Tappe, who claimed to have noticed an indigo aura around certain children and individuals, through her synesthetic and psychic perception.
According to Tappe, 95% of children born in the last decade have auras that are dominated with the color indigo. This color is said to symbolize the energy of the "third eye chakra". She believed that, indigo bearers are here to unify the world and make it a more peaceful place to live in. Whereas, some believe that in order to bring peace, these children will need to breakdown redundant and oppressive systems by dawning their spirit like an armor.
Indigo children are here to carry the weight of the world into a more globalized era, and for that purpose their energy is always undergoing metamorphosis, so as to change with time and become more equipped to lead the way. According to Nancy Ann Tappe, there are four types of indigo personalities, which include humanists, artists, conceptualists, and catalysts. Following are some signs that are attributed with each indigo personality.
Indigo children are here to carry the weight of the world into a more globalized era, and for that purpose their energy is always undergoing metamorphosis, so as to change with time and become more equipped to lead the way. According to Nancy Ann Tappe, there are four types of indigo personalities, which include humanists, artists, conceptualists, and catalysts. Following are some signs that are attributed with each indigo personality.
The children are good-natured, friendly, and extrovert, if they find like-minded or intriguing people to interact with. Communicating is their strongest trait and this ability to converse keeps them happy and balanced.
They are likely to portray androgynous behavior, are not insecure about being around children who are boys or girls. They have an innate tendency to treat everyone equally, irrespective of their looks, gender, or background.
They are quick at grasping information and learn very quickly, which can also make them get bored very soon and lose interest or get distracted often.
It is extremely hard to make such children detract from their routine. They feel unhappy when their study or play time is affected in any way.
Such children will often take inspiration from the most mundane things and from their spiritual existence, to create fantastic works of art and literature.
They are highly unlikely to imitate others, and would rather create something original and unique. That being said, they still need training and time to learn the required skills to harness their artistic abilities and put them to good use.
They are performance-driven and will not stop until the desired results are achieved. This perfectionism can be daunting for the parents but interrupting their creative work may set off a series of dramatic outbursts and tantrums.
It is not uncommon for indigo children to spend most of their idle hours in daydreaming. They can also be extremely sensitive to how their peers perceive and treat them. They also like exercising and enjoy being outdoors.
It is hard for them to adjust with the disciplinary environment of school. They have a problem with authority and will not accept anyone dominating them.
If stressed beyond patience, it is highly probable for indigo children to shun people. This will happen after the child has forgiven and ignored several past instances of rudeness from the other person. Thereafter, it is hard for them to trust the ones who hurt their feelings.
They are the happiest and the brightest when they are busy working on their art or performing, which adds new life to their being!
The Conceptualist Indigo Child
To think out of the box is the very essence of the conceptualist indigo child. From a very early age, they will begin to question the norms of the society around them. It is their endeavor to usher in new concepts and outlook, which replace redundant or harmful ones.
Such children are likely to suggest a completely different and functional way of doing something which will help make the work easier for everybody. This tendency can be noticed while working alone on a class project or working with a group of classmates. It can also be noticed in the questions asked by toddlers to their elders, that can often leave the adults speechless!
They also need some form of physical activity that helps them feel a sense of belonging to a team or cause. However, they do not really like mingling with people much and would rather stay alone and spend time building their virtual world.
The Catalyst Indigo Child
The catalyst indigo children are rare and few. These children have a philosophical bent of mind, are philanthropic, and greatly affected by the plight of the world. They are extremely kind, sensitive, psychic, and easily angered by the sight of injustice.
They also have a comparatively keener insight into the probable events of the future. They are often sidelined by other children because of their keen sense of righteousness and intellect, which makes them the odd ones in any group.
They find it hard to adjust with school life because they can't relate with the method of teaching or their other classmates. They like learning on their own and will create their own unique method to do so. These children are most likely to be tagged as autistic or suffering from ADHD, because half of them do have some learning disability. Nonetheless, most of them simply think differently and that is what makes them special.
Based on these traits of the four personality types, the parents must assess which characteristics are dominant in their child. Indigo children are not a scientifically proven fact, thus it is inadvisable for parents to place undue pressure and label their children as indigos.

Tent rentals could be cost-effective and pretty useful for several kinds of industries. Tents could be utilized for warehousing and storage, for protection of equipment repair and construction projects, and also for precise industrial projects like environmental remediation. The precise kind of tent that would be required by you would be depending on various factors including the surface & environment, the nature of your specific project, and most importantly, your budget. An experienced and proficient tent rental service would be having the necessary knowledge of industry requirements and so could guide you while choosing the tent that is most suited to your kind of industry. Here are a few benefits of installing industrial tents.
Adaptable & Spacious
Industrial tents are known to provide maximum space and too much flexibility for different kinds of industrial projects. Whether the tent would be required for protecting construction or for providing temporary warehousing, the customizable configuration and unrestricted space offer optimal efficiency and freedom. The lack of outside lines and ropes or interior supports offers an extra security and safety benefit, eliminating undesirable and needless hazards and obstacles for the crew and the equipment.
The cutting-edge industrial tents boast of a modular nature and so are an excellent choice for uneven terrain and oddly-shaped settings. Size does not seem to be an issue, industrial tent structures could be constructed as large or as small as required by the business project. These tent structures could easily be set up on diverse surfaces including concrete and porous soil etc. Your industrial tent professional would be advising you regarding the flexible choices that would be optimizing stability and safety for your structure.
The most advanced industrial tents would be offering a broad spectrum of optional accessories meant for the industrial segment. Clients have the option of choosing from numerous kinds of lighting and flooring. Extra add-ons would be including security doors, walkways, overhead panels, and more. Look around for a professional tent rental service provider which has an adequate knowledge of your industry's precise requirements and could assist you in organizing and customizing the most reliable tent for your project.
Weather-Resistant & Pretty Durable
No matter what project you are working on, your tent must be robust and durable enough for protecting your merchandise, supplies, and costly equipment against any hazards and damage from inclement weather conditions, theft, or vandalism. Industrial tents are selected primarily on the basis of their capacity to withstand the external environment. You may have to operate in excessive humidity, extremes of temperatures, heavy downpour, freezing cold, and high winds. You must choose a robust tent that would be able to withstand and endure the elements effectively. Premium quality industrial structures are provided with effective solid enforced aluminum frames and flame-retardant fabric panels and are fully geared toward withstanding most kinds of weather conditions.
You must consider customizing your lighting, flooring, security options, and climate control options. Choose a trustworthy and affordable tent rental company that provides high- quality, durable, industrial tents.

A user reported a problem when you want to export the logical framework to an existing MS Word document
When you want to export the logframe and insert it at the end of an existing document, Logframer stops the process and gives an error message. Exporting the logframe to a specific bookmark does work however.
This problem was solved and I made a new build of Logframer 2.0 that I published on the download page of this site.
To remedy this problem, you have to re-install Logframer so the new build will replace the earlier version:
Many thanks to the person who was so kind to make me aware of this problem. If you encounter a similar problem, feel free to use the contact form on this site to report it. When you do report a bug, please give a detailed description of the circumstances in which it occured. This helps me enormously in finding and eliminating the problem. Good user feed-back is essential to improve Logframer and to iron out all the bugs.
Today a user made me aware of a problem in Logframer 2.0. When your logical framework has more than one purpose (or outcome, or specific objective) then you may run into troubles when you try to add or delete outputs or activities.
I was able to remedy this problem and I made a new build of Logframer 2.0 that I published on the download page of this site.
That's all there is to it. Thank you to the person who was so kind to warn me of this problem. If you encounter a similar problem, feel free to use the contact form on this site to report it. When you do report a bug, please give a detailed description of the circumstances in which it occured. This helps me enormously in finding and eliminating the problem. Good user feed-back is essential to keep improving Logframer and to iron out all the bugs.
Some people have reported that they were unable to download and install Logframer because they got a warning from Microsoft SmartScreen:
There is no reason to worry, this happens because SmartScreen checks of list of known applications. If an application has a bad reputation, it is blocked. The problem is that young, new applications - such as Logframer 2 - are not known yet by Microsoft and therefore haven't got any reputation (good or bad) yet. So by default they are blocked.
Luckily, it's relatively easy to install Logframer anyway. Here are a couple of articles that explain how you can install an application anyway:
You can also turn of SmartScreen if you want. It is not a virus scanner, it just checks for an application's reputation. So if you have a decent virus scanner installed (and you should have one) then you are perfectly save.
It is done. The last line of code is written. The last bug is ironed out (although inevitably there are some more to be discovered). The last icon is drawn. The last help page is written and translated. After two years of non-stop occasional intermittent stop-and-go programming, Logframer 2.0 is finally released!
And it certainly is a 'new' version. No stone has been left unturned: every line of code has been scrutinised and I guess about 90% has been rewritten or modified to some point. One main objective was to improve the overall performance and speed and you'll certainly notice that viewing and printing large logframes will be much smoother. But that's not all of course.
The biggest change that you will notice when you start up version 2.0 is that you can develop the logical framework of your project AND develop a project plan like you would in Microsoft Project AND develop your project's budget like you would in Microsoft Excel. All in one file, but at the same time all these major building blocks are linked to each other. Add some activities to the project plan? Then they will also be listed in the logframe and vice versa. Made up your budget? Then you can choose from the budget items and use them in the Resources/Budget columns of your logframe.
You will also notice the new ribbon tab toolbars at the top of the window. Their functionality changes depending on what you're working with: the logframe, the planning, the budget, the list of partners, text, etc.
Another main development was the improvement of anything related to project monitoring. For starters, you can now set multiple targets for your indicators (as well as a baseline) and develop a monitoring calendar. There are no less than 17 types of indicators to choose from and each indicator has many options. All in all, there shouldn't be a monitoring scenario for which Logframer doesn't offer a solution. But maybe the best thing is that once you've selected all the necessary indicators to measure the impact, effects, outputs and progress of your project, you can create a monitoring instrument in MS Excel by the touch of a button. Indicators can now have sub-indicators. And sub-sub-indicators and sub-sub-sub-indicators and so on.
Risk management has improved as well: in the fourth column you can now select between Risks, Assumptions and Dependencies. In the monitoring calendar you can indicate when you need to follow-up risks and at the touch of a button Logframer will generate a Risk Register in MS Excel that you can use during your project.
The earlier versions of Logframer had a planning window, but it was not interactive. Instead it was more of a static overview of the information you added for each activity. In version 2.0, you get an interactive Gantt chart to design the key moments, processes and activities. With the introduction of processes, you can have activities with sub-activities with sub-sub-activities and so on. The gantt chart has drag-and-drop functionality, which means that you can move activities, make their duration longer, increase the time needed for preparation and follow-up (only available in Logframer people!) and link them to one another.
The budget is a brand new addition. You can simply add budget headers and budget items. Totals are calculated automatically for each header. You can work with different currencies and manage exchange rates in a central location. You can even create multi-year budgets and automatically calculate total expenses on the front page. Also included are budget templates to get you started. Automatically calculate administration (indirect) costs as a percentage of your direct costs, etc. Logframer can handle it.
There's a host of other things to be discovered, but I don't want to repeat everything that you can find in the help pages. So instead, rush over to the download page and install the newest Logframer (still for free and no-strings-attached) on your computer or laptop!
It's been quiet around here lately, but don't let that fool you. During the last months I've been very busy with the brand new Logframer 2.0. As I've announced previously, this version is a major upgrade to Logframer 1.x, with all new features as well as a major overhaul to improve performance.
But enough chit-chat, how about some screenshots?
Tadaaaah! How about a round of applause folks?
You'll immediately notice the familiar logical framework in the centre. Although at first glance it looks much the same, it has some nifty new features. And now it is lightning fast too, thanks to a completely new rendering engine.
Near the top you can see that Logframer now has a MS Office-style ribbon. The content of the ribbon changes according to what you are doing, as you would expect from a ribbon.
With the lay-out tab you can control what elements are visible in your logframe. You can show or hide columns, as usual, but now you can also show/hide the different sections of the logframe. There is a new button to show the whole logframe at once, or hide everything but the purpose(s).
This is the Items ribbon tab. On the left you can see the various copy/paste options. The cut-copy-paste mechanism has been greatly improved, making it amongst other things easier to copy text from other applications, or copy/paste groups of items and so on. Next to the Add and Insert buttons, you can see the Insert Parent and Insert Child buttons...
... because now you can add child-activities and child-indicators. You can add as many levels as you like (I tried up to 12 sub-levels in practice).
Talking about the indicators, these have had a major revision too. Not only can you create compound indicators using the sub-indicators; the way that you can add up the values or scores of the indicators has had a major update. For instance, you can use the values that are registered directly, or replace a certain value range with a score.
Below you can see how the total value of a main indicator is calculated based on the values of its sub-indicators. This is just an example of the 'values' type of indicator, but in total there are sixteen different types of indicators, all of which can use sub-indicators.
Another new feature that you may have remarked in the image above is that it is now possible to identify multiple targets (instead of just a single target in the current version of Logframer). For each section in the logframe (goals, purposes, outputs and activities) you can determine at which intervals indicators have to be monitored:
For instance, you can specify that impact (goals) and effect (purpose) indicators anly have to be monitored at the end of the programme, while the output indicators have to be measured yearly. Also, for every indicator you can measure a baseline.
Jumping to the last column, the Risks detail window will look familiar to you. However, I now integrated the RAID-typology, which stands for 'Risks - Assumptions - Issues - Dependencies'.
So when you select Assumptions you can complete the following information:
And this is the Dependencies window:
For each type of RAID element you can identify how you will deal with it (over time) and how it may influence your programme.
In Logframer 1.x, you would get a single overview of the logical framework with the details section in the bottom and a pop-up window showing the project's planning. In version 2.0 you can use different tab pages to see the various main elements of your programme. The logical framework has its page of course, and via the details window you can still see different information about your project. But the first page you'll see when you open the application is the Project overview, withe the project's title, its duration and other info. Below it you can immediately see who will benefit from the project, in the overview of the target groups. Other tabs allow you to register partners, donors, etc. On this page you also find the monitoring options that we saw above (when - intermediary - targets have to be reached and monitored).
The Planning window also had a major overhaul. In version 1.3, the Planning pop-up window just gave a static overview of the key-moments and activities that you identified using the logframe and the detail window. In version 2.0, the planning is now fully interactive, up to the point that you can design a project just like you would in Microsoft Project, using Gantt charts rather than the logical framework. I'll show you how it works in a follow-up post.
Also new in this version is the inclusion of the project's budget:
You have the choice between working with a single page budget for the whole of your project, and establishing a multi-year budget. In that last case, you create the main budget headings on the overview page, and then you can specify year by year what specific costs (budget items) you want to include.
For each budget item you can calculate its cost based on how many times you will need it (in terms of duration), how many items you need and how much a single item costs (optionally in local currency). At the left you can see the totals in local currency (should you need this) and in the currency of the budget.
The totals for each budget heading are then summed up on the 'Total budget' page:
Back in the logframe, once you've established your project's budget you can use it to indicate for every activity how many resources you will need:
You make (indicative) totals by selecting budget items and then you can specify what percentage of that cost will be needed for the activity in question.
So far the development of version 2.0 has progressed quite well - I've even been working on elements for later versions. But on the other hand there's still quite a bit to do before I can release version 2. Amongst other things, I have to update the printing and import/export modules to use the new rendering engine and accomodate for the new features such as the child activities/indicators and the new budget. The Undo/Redo module also needs an upgrade and then there's all the work of translating the interface and creating or updating the help files as well as the website. At the moment I'm aiming for April or May next year to release Logframer 2.0.
At the moment, I'm frantically working on version 2.0 of Logframer, which will be utterly fantastic once it's finished. Some day. In the far future.
Anyway, just to say that the release of the newest version is not for toworrow because I'm giving Logframer a really thorough make-over. But that doesn't mean that the current version 1.3 is left to its own devices. I was made aware by a couple of users of some bugs in the system, most notably when you try to set the start date of an activity or key moment.
Apart from removing these bugs I incorporated some elements under the hood from the future version 2.0. Nothing drastic you know, just to make sure you can plan activities the way you want to. So that is why I have published a second build of version 1.3, which you can now download from the page with the same name.
Don't expect any new functionalities, this is just maintenance. You'll have to wait for Logframer 2.0 for any real changes. But I'll give some clues about the new version in a follow-up post.
YIIIII and also HAAAAA !!! Logframer smashed the 10,000 downloads barrier. In the donor countries, Logframer is most popular in the US, France, Belgium, Canada and the UK. But what I'm most pleased with is that Logframer is equally popular in the recipient countries, notably in India, Kenya, Pakistan, the Philippines and Uganda. Obviously, Logframer is a bit less popular in Spanish/Portuguese speaking countries because as yet the programme is not yet available in those languages. But that doesn't mean no-one uses it; Logframer does have quite a number of users in Brazil and Spain for instance.
The feedback I get is overwhelmingly positive. Occasionally people report bugs, which helps me improve the software. Sometimes I get questions on how to do specific things in Logframer and occasionally we find that this or that is not yet possible. So I keep this in mind when developing the next version.
The development of Logframer 2.0 is well underway. As the version number suggests, this will be a major revision of the current 1.x series with a number of new features. But more on that later.
So thank you for using Logframer and do check this website from time to time to learn about the newest version.
A couple of days ago, a user informed me about a problem he had when trying to import a logical framework from an Excel workbook. Strangely, importing from Excel works fine in Windows 7 and Windows 8 but not in Windows 8.1
For its Excel importing and exporting functionality, Logframer relies on the Microsoft ACE or Microsoft JET providers (the latter is used when you still have Windows XP on your computer) which allow Logframer to connect to microsoft databases (mainly MS Access but a MS Excel worksheet can also be approached as a database).
Previously these were included during the installation of Microsoft Office. However now it seems that this is not always the case, which means that you will have to manually install the MS Access Database Engine (2010). When I did some tests I found that the problems occurs when you have Windows 8.1 with 64-bit version of Office 2013/365 installed. Even when the MS Access Database Engine is installed, it is the 64-bit version which cannot be used by Logframer because it is a 32-bit application. As a side-note, working with 'older' technologies is a consious decision on my part, because a lot of people and organisations in developing countries use older computers and operating systems.
So enough with the technical mumbo-jumbo. What is the solution then:
You can download the MS Access Database Engine using this link: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255
The latest release of Logframer is out now, so quickly run to the download page!
Version 1.3 has improved importing and exporting abilities. Now you can import logframes not only from Excel workbooks, but also from Word documents. As in Excel, you can select the table that contains the logical framework and import it, using a wizard.
To export your reports to Word, I've made a uniform wizard. In the previous versions, you could choose if you wanted to export your logical framework to a new Word document, or to an existing one. In an existing document you had the option to insert the logical framework at the beginning of the document, at the end or after a specific bookmark. But for all the other reports you didn't have these options, you could only create a new Word document with the report in question. So in this version, this wizard works for all reports.
Speaking of reports, you can now export four additional reports: the table of resources, the project's planning, the list of partners and the target group identification forms.
Additionally, I created an autosave function. To set the autosave timer, go to the preferences and choose after how many minutes Logframer has to autosave your document. Also, when you close the application and your document hasn't been saved, Logframer will ask you to save (this feature didn't work in the previous versions).
As always, I've smashed some bugs too. In previous versions, Logframer would generate an error if you tried to set the starting date of an activity before you'd set the starting date of your project. And the search function introduced in version 1.1 had some instabilities as well, so I've sorted that out too.
Proceed to the download page
Full alert and everyone to battle stations! I came across an article about a Drupal vulnerability that exposed any website made in version 7 of the popular content management system. In total, it was suspected that no less than 12 million sites had been exposed to hacking, with the hackers using automated tools to get control of each individual site. After reading the article, I quickly opened this website. At first everything looked fine, until I logged in with my content management account. Then it became blatantly obvious that the site had been hacked. Another clear sign was that I couldn't even log in any more as the site's admin.
Well, to make a long and arduous story short, I had to take drastic measures to get those weasels out of my property. Because of the distinct possiblity that the hackers had installed backdoors that would allow them to regain control, I had to disinfect the server with medical alcohol, weed killer and DDT. Luckily I had a recent back-up, which allowed me to revert the site to a version from before this vulnerability was created in Drupal.
So what was the damage? All in all, not much really, apart from some anxious hours spent cleaning and reinstalling the back-up. Hackers are mostly interested in passwords and people's personal data, but apart from my personal accounts there was nothing to find here (I don't keep mailing lists for intance). They weren't able to hack my admin account, just delete it and create their own accounts (which I deleted with diabolical laughter after I'd discovered them). I don't use may accounts for other sites and just for safety I changed my passwords after this business. So it seems that my prudence has paid off. But on the other hand it was also an eye-opener: however prudent you may be, if there is a vulnerability in the software you're using, you are completely helpless. That is an important lesson for a software developper.

|Ubiquitin-like protein which can be covalently attached to target lysines either as a monomer or as a lysine-linked polymer. Does not seem to be involved in protein degradation and may function as an antagonist of ubiquitin in the degradation process. Plays a role in a number of cellular processes such as nuclear transport, DNA replication and repair, mitosis and signal transduction. Covalent attachment to its substrates requires prior activation by the E1 complex SAE1-SAE2 and linkage to the E2 enzyme UBE2I, and can be promoted by an E3 ligase such as PIAS1-4, RANBP2 or CBX4. Plays a role in the regulation of sumoylation status of SETX (By similarity).

Covalent attachment of one protein to another is one of the more prominent posttranslational modifications in respects to size and ubiquity ? to which eukaryotic proteins are subject. Ubiquitin is the most familiar of the protein modifiers and its activation and transfer to target proteins has been studied for over two decades. Recently a new group of ubiquitin-like (Ubl) proteins have come to light. One of the most intriguing of them is SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier, ~12kDa) also known as Sentrin. SUMO family has been described in vertebrates: SUMO-1 and the closest homologs SUMO-2 and SUMO-3. SUMO have been shown to bind and regulate mammalian SP-RINGs (such as Mdm2, PIAS and PML), RanGAP1, RanBP2, p53, p73, HIPK2, TEL, c-Jun, Fas, Daxx, TNFRI, Topo-I, Topo-II, WRN, Sp100, IkB-alpha, Androgen receptor (AR), GLUT1/4, Drosophila Ttk69, Dorsal, CaMK, yeast Septins, and viral CMV-IE1/2, EBV-BZLF1, HPV/BPV-E1. These bindings implicate SUMO in the stabilization of the target proteins and/or their localization to subcellular complexes. SUMO research enters now an exciting phase with a promise to help understanding how cells orchestrate the complexities of rapidly regulating protein level and activity.

Prepare Like a pro for Your First Weightlifting or Powerlifting Meet
This blog post was originally posted on Working Against Gravity by Danielle Sheriiff, our Buff Babes Nutrition program affiliate, and has been modified. Excited, nervous, and anxious — the emotions and adrenaline rush of competing are what make it such a worthwhile experience. It is the reason that once you compete, you'll want to do it again and again. When you register for a meet you feel determined and proud; you should because you made a brave move. As competition draws closer, you can feel ill-prepared and out of place. Not strong, fast or technical enough. Your self-consciousness starts to creep...
Let It Make You Stronger: A Mantra to Live by
This guest blog post was written by Barbell Babes Ambassador, Elly Hauber. It was a single bracelet that gave me hope while I was struggling with the aftermath of an abusive relationship. It wasn't the bracelet itself really, but what it said, "Stronger". When I would remember the painful events of this relationship, I would find myself rubbing the flat metal surface where the word was engraved. Soon, that turned into a personal mantra, "Let it make you stronger!" I would chant this to myself when I could feel the veil of depression trying to take over. I was still...

According to the author the real name of Icefrog was Abdul Ishmael, an Arab and he added also that Icefrog was a liar and hard to work with person. Is this true?
On the middle of his confession the guy pointed out some important information connecting Icefrog to several game developing companies.
According to him, Icefrog first work to Riot games (Burger King), then quit transferred to S2 games (Fatburger) and now Icefrog join with Valve games(Wendy) to produced DOTA2.
So what's the issue about it? For me you just can simply think that valve conspired with Icefrog works that he was stealing some trade secrets from different companies.
I don't know what's the motive of this anonymous guy who speak against icefrog.Jealous?lol..
In my own view ,I wonder before how S2 Games quickly produced the DOTA replica, "Hereos of Newerth". Interesting right? Does Icefrog give the game copy to S2 Games or He was one of the HON team working to it.
Well, you cannot blame Icefrog if he wants to monetize his invention because making a good game such DOTA requires much skills and resources. Remember, Icefrog is not getting revenue from the Maps he created for DOTA while running in Warcraft due to Blizzard TOS.
If you could observe Icefrog introduce some different platforms that DOTA could run to start fleeing from World of War Craft. Icefrog Dota 2 project will run on Valve not in Blizzard. Does Blizzard TOS could stop Icefrog to monetize his maps since he is now at VALVE? I don't know.
If I am Icefrog maybe I'll do same thing to support my living and that's we call game but I wouldn't act as hostile to my co-team. Look now somebody named him (Icefrog) a terrorist.
I have emailed Icefrog to ask if all this accusation is true but no response.

Tabanan district legislators have backed the provincial government's ban on geothermal power at Bedugul, saying it would break religious taboos by drilling into sacred earth, posed a risk of environmental damage and could threaten disaster if something went wrong.
I Ketut Loka Antara, a Golkar legislator from West Selemadeg, has told the legislature his region would be the first to feel any negative effects from a geothermal project at Bedugul. "I have opposed the concept from the beginning," he said.
He said local concern about the proposal was immense and had been heightened by the Sidoarjo mud volcano disaster near Surabaya in East Java in which thousands of people had lost their homes.
A Democratic Party member, I Putu Oka Mahendra, from rural Pejaten, also opposed a geothermal power project at Bedugul — or anywhere else in Bali.
He said Bali was a small island that did not need such a massive project. "We will not be supporting the environment if a geothermal project is built in Bali."
Mahendra said the only feasible industry in Bali was tourism because Balinese culture and customs were what attracted tourists to the island.
"Our way of life will be disrupted by mega-development projects such as geothermal power," he said. "If you want to make geothermal power, look for places outside Bali which have the potential for it."
Mahendra said the effects of forest destruction in the uplands were already clear from heavy stream flows in rainy weather. Catchments needed to be protected so rivers would not flood heavily downstream and inundate populated areas.
Bali have to follow the demand by a growing number of tourists and make tha necessary changes into a more environmenatally sustainable ways of producing energy. Geothermal energy would be a great alternative and I believe it could even become successfull tourist attraction. Besides I believe it would be in hindu spirit to protect the environment from the present poluting cole-fired power plants that make up almost all of Bali´s present energy. If the geothermal project is not an option for religious reasons I believe Bali should quickly be looking for alternalive ways of generating its increasing energy consumption needs.

Supreme Court rules ban on liquor shops along every highways from April :- The Supreme Court on Thursday requested a restriction on all alcohol shops on national and additionally state thruways the nation over and made it clear that licenses of existing shops won't be reestablished after March 31 one year from now.
A three-judge seat headed by Chief Justice T S Thakur likewise coordinated that all signages showing nearness of alcohol shops will be precluded on national and state parkways. The seat additionally involving Justices D Y Chandrachud and L Nageswara Rao said the current licenses of alcohol shops over the interstates won't be restored after March 31, 2017.
A week ago, the zenith court had communicated worry more than 1.5 lakh fatalities consistently in street setbacks, saying it might coordinate conclusion of alcohol distributes on national and state expressways the country over, other than the evacuation of the signages demonstrating their area. The summit court, while saving decision on December 7 on a cluster of supplications looking for a course to revise extract laws to guarantee that no alcohol is sold nearby interstates.
Descended intensely on the Punjab government for looking for unwinding and allowing alcohol shops close thruways on the off chance that they are hoisted ones and the distribute are under or close it. Take a gander at the quantity of licenses you (Punjab) have given.
Since the alcohol hall is so intense, everybody is cheerful. The extract division is cheerful, the extract priest is glad and the state government is additionally upbeat that they are profiting.
In the event that a man bites the dust because of this, you give Rs one or 1.5 lakh. That is it. You ought to stand firm which is useful for the general public," the seat had said.

Hewlett-Packard is the largest PC maker in the world, significantly outpacing even longtime rival Dell these days. So it was more than a bit of a shocker today when the company announced plans to spin off or sell its personal computer business.
By the same token, HP spent more than $1 billion to acquire Palm and its webOS a little more than a year ago. Which made it even more of a shocker when the company said today that it would be discontinuing its webOS device sales — including the TouchPad — and re-evaluating the future of the mobile operating system.
But digging into the underlying trends, even our rudimentary chart gives a sense for where things are headed. We can only imagine what HP CEO Leo Apotheker is seeing in the numbers available to him.
Reflecting trends in the broader PC market, HP's computer shipments have essentially been flat over the past couple of years — in large part because people are spending their money on iPads rather than lower-cost PCs when it comes time to buy a second or third machine in the home.
HP's decisions today were "shaped heavily by secular market trends that are redefining how technology is consumed and deployed," Apotheker said in announcing the news.
In short, Apple's fingerprints are all over both of HP's decisions today.
So where does this leave companies still relying on the traditional PC business? Time will tell, but this much is clear: Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer had better hope those Windows 8 tablets are the best thing since the ham sandwich. September can't get here soon enough.

The 2015 Nepal earthquake that occurred on April 25 absolutely devastated Kathmandu, created avalanches on Mount Everest, and left hundreds of thousands of impoverished Nepalese people homeless. With a magnitude of 7.8, the earthquake was the strongest experienced in Nepal since 1934. A second earthquake on May 12 and scores of aftershocks toppled damaged buildings and created even more casualties.
Nepal is considered one of the poorest countries in Asia and depends heavily on tourism which has been stifled at the moment. They have appealed to the international community -- with limited success -- for assistance. And while officials are discouraging tourists from visiting the capital for now, they could really use donations to aid in recovery.
How Strong Was the 2015 Nepal Earthquake?
Nepal was actually hit by two powerful earthquakes less than a month apart. The earthquake that hit Kathmandu on April 25 was given a magnitude of 7.8 by the U.S. Geological Survey. The China Earthquake Networks Center rated the same earthquake at a magnitude of 8.1. The last earthquake of that strength to hit Nepal was an 8.0-magnitude quake in 1934.
The 7.3-magnitude earthquake that struck on May 12 was followed just minutes later by another 6.3-magnitude quake in the same area. Many powerful aftershocks rated from "moderate" to "severe" followed.
The earthquakes in Nepal were so powerful that tremors were felt over 600 miles away in New Delhi. The earthquake actually caused damage and casualties in several Indian states, and it was felt in Tibet, Pakistan, and Bhutan.
Casualties and Death Toll
As of May 21, 2015, the death toll from the earthquake and aftershocks was over 8,600 people; that number is still expected to climb as the hundreds of missing are eventually added to the casualty list. Over 19,000 people were injured during the earthquakes. Hundreds of thousands of people are currently homeless; the lucky survivors are living in tents throughout Kathmandu.
The 2015 Nepal earthquakes hit in the spring during peak season for tourism. Among the casualties were at least 88 foreign nationals including six Americans, 10 French, seven Spaniards, five Germans, four Italians, and two Canadians.
The earthquake triggered a series of avalanches on Mount Everest that hit Everest Base Camp, killing at least 19; an additional 120 people were listed as injured or still missing. April 25, 2015, became the deadliest day in history on Mount Everest. Among the climbers was Dan Fredinburg, a 33-year-old Google executive from California. Fredinburg had already climbed four of the Seven Summits -- the highest peaks on each continent -- and narrowly escaped becoming a casualty the year before during the 2014 Mount Everest avalanche that closed the climbing season.
The 2015 Nepal earthquake was so powerful that it even caused casualties in adjacent countries. At least 78 deaths were reported in India, 25 in Tibet, and four in Bangladesh.
A U.S. military helicopter on a relief mission after the earthquake crashed for unknown reasons killing six U.S. Marines and two Nepalese soldiers.
How to Help the Victims of the Nepal Earthquakes
Sadly, Nepal is regarded as one of the poorest countries in Asia. World Bank estimates the per-capita income in Nepal to be less than US $500 per year. Along with the loss of life, many poverty-stricken residents lost their homes and livelihoods. Many damaged buildings are still crumbing and threaten to collapse. With limited resources on hand, recovery could take more than a decade.
To ensure that the most dollars from your donation go directly to help the victims of the 2015 Nepal earthquake, consider giving to the Nepal Red Cross Society.
These other major charities have set up special funds for helping Nepal:
- UNICEF (UNICEF claims that 90.2 cents from every dollar donated will go to helping children in Nepal.)
- The Salvation Army (The Salvation Army is a good option if you wish to donate via PayPal.)
Support Offered by the International Community
Although many countries have sent volunteers and/or aid, the monetary response to the disaster is still considered inconsistent and lacking. Many impoverished countries gave larger monetary donations than 'developed' countries with exponentially larger GDPs.
Amounts are in U.S. dollars
The U.S. government gave only $10 million for relief, and the European Union gave only $3.3 million. The United Arab Emirates, with a GDP of over $377 billion, donated only $1.36 million. In comparison, the United Kingdom's government contributed $36 million.
Top contributors to Nepal include Australia ($15.8 million), Germany ($68.3 million donated by the public), the UK ($36 million), and Switzerland ($21.9 million through fundraising). Norway gave $17.3 million compared to Sweden's donation of $1.5 million.
Singapore, one of the wealthiest countries in Asia, donated only $100,000 to relief efforts. South Korea, also considered a wealthy country, gave only $1 million. Algeria, Bhutan, and Haiti each gave $1 million dollars, surpassing Italy's donation of $326,000 and Taiwan's donation of $300,000.

- Page 1 Garmin nuvi 3590 LMT Review
- Page 2 Features, Navigation and Verdict Review
- Lifetime European maps and RDS-TMC traffic
- Packed with features
- 5in display and premium build
- Full range of Live Services are expensive
- Smartphone Link is Android only
- Combined destination search covers local addresses only
Key Specifications
- Review Price: £226.20
- 5in widescreen display
- European maps with lifetime updates
- Lifetime RDS-TMC traffic
- Compatible with Garmin Smartphone Link
- Voice control system
Garmin was a little later than TomTom to add live interactive mobile data services to its sat-navs, and hasn't had the same success with the concept either. The Garmin nuvi 3590 LMT is the latest in the line, following on from the
Garmin nuvi 1690 and Garmin nuLink 2320, both of which have built-in mobile data connections. However, the Garmin nuvi 3590 LMT takes a slightly different tack to previous models, piggybacking off your smartphone, which saves Garmin having to pay for the mobile data connection, but brings some useful extra features.
Garmin nuvi 3590 LMT Design
Even without the live services, this is an extremely fully featured sat-nav. The Gamin nuvi 3590 LMT sports a 5-inch screen and a classy body, with a solid build and an attractive chrome bezel with Garmin-branded spur. It's not as slim as the amazingly skinny Garmin nuvi 3790 T, but this is still a very attractive device. The mount is designed for ease of use. The car power adapter plugs into the mount, so you can slot the sat-nav in to connect power as well. RDS-TMC traffic reception is built into the power cable, although you have to route the antenna around your car's windscreen for the best reception, using the supplied attachments. There's a speaker in the mount to improve audio quality, too. But many more features can be added via the Smartphone Link.
Garmin nuvi 3590 LMT Smartphone Link
To use the Smartphone Link features of the Garmin nuvi 3590 LMT, you need to install an app on your smartphone, and this brings us to the first bit of bad news – the app is Android only. So all of those looking to escape the woes of the iOS 6 incorporated Apple Maps with a standalone Garmin sat-nav will only be able to use the base unit's features. Android users will gain a slew of new capabilities, however.
Once the app and sat-nav are paired via Bluetooth, you can subscribe to a range of Live Services. These include Garmin's 3D Live Traffic, the company's competitor to TomTom's HD Traffic, for £19.99. You can get an Advanced weather service, Dynamic Parking, Fuel Prices, Safety Cameras and photoLive for £8.45 each. PhotoLive is Garmin's unique service whereby you can see the view from roadside traffic cameras, and decide for yourself how bad the jam really is. All of these services are served to the Garmin nuvi 3590 LMT rather than your phone – the latter just acts as a tethered data conduit.
Even if you don't subscribe to any of the Live Services, the Smartphone Link is well worth getting. With the two devices paired, you can use your phone to tell the sat-nav to calculate a route to a saved favourite or recent destination, and find parking near your current location. It's a little annoying that you can't use the phone connection to search addresses and set up new destinations, other than finding parking and ones already saved on the sat-nav itself. But these are still useful features, particularly so someone else in the car can configure things for you whilst you concentrate on driving. You can also share destinations via a host of services, including email, Facebook, Google Plus and Twitter. The Smartphone Link isn't limited to the Garmin nuvi 3590 LMT, either – a selection of other Bluetooth-equipped Garmin models support the service as well.

Home Recycling Basics
Each year, Americans generate millions of tons of trash but according to the EPA, the national recycling rate is only 30%. Many people don't recycle because they feel that it is a hassle, inconveient and messy, but in reality it is very easy! There are a variety of ways to make home recycling easy, and all it takes is changing a few small habits and attitudes. Recycling as well as reducing and reusing what we consume benefits everyone and the environment.
There are different kinds of recycling. There is recycling of paper, plastic, glass, aluminum, and even car oil. Bleached paper and newsprint recycling reduces the amount of trees that are cut down. Plastic can be recycled into other plastics. Glass can be melted down and made into many different forms from drinking glasses to glass fiber. Aluminum can be recycled into other cans, foil, and even wrapping paper. Most do not realize that even car oil can be burned for energy recovery and/or recycled and re-used. Below are some tips to help you get started recycling at your home.
• Place recycling bins next to your garbage can. This will make it easier to recycle if you have all waste containers in the same area.
• Contact your home trash collection service's recycling program. Most cities offer a free curbside service that makes it convenient to recycle!
• Know what you can and can't recycle. Read up on the recycling rules for your area and make sure you don't send anything in that can't be processed. Always check with your local municipality or waste hauler to see what kind of recycling services are available in your area. Locate a recycling center near you.
• Avoid products that cannot be recycled such as aerosol cans and Styrofoam. Try to find alternatives that are more environmentaly friendly.
Starting a household recycling program is easy and there are several ways you can make a difference each day by changing your habits, attitude and being more conscious.
We can produce less waste by reducing the amount of trash discarded, reusing containers and products and buying with recycled content.

Pension regulator makes provision for partial withdrawal under NPS
New Delhi, May 3 (IANS) The Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA) on Thursday said that it has made modification in partial withdrawal rules under the National Pension System (NPS).
According to PFRDA, partial withdrawals will now be allowed to NPS subscribers who wish to improve "their employability or acquire new skills by pursuing higher education or acquiring professional and technical qualifications".
"Further, individual NPS subscribers who wish to set up a new business or acquire new business will also be allowed to make partial withdrawals from his contributions. Other terms applicable to partial withdrawals will remain unchanged," PFRDA said in a statement on Thursday.
PFRDA took the decision in its recently-held Board meeting.
Besides, the pension regulator has increased cap on equity investment in "active choice to 75 per cent from current 50 per cent for private sector subscribers".
Presently, there is a cap of 50 per cent on equity investment under active choice in NPS.
"The proposal on increasing cap on equity investment in active choice to 75 per cent from currently 50 per cent has been approved by the Board. However, it comes with a clause of tapering of the equity allocation after the age of 50 years," the statement said.

Teasing its latest issue -- the one with four collector's covers featuring stars from The Walking Dead -- Entertainment Weekly has unveiled new cast portraits, behind-the-scenes photos and episode stills from the upcoming third season of the hit AMC drama.
The portraits, which you can see below, show Rick Grimes, Danai Gurira as Michonne, David Morrissey as the Governor and Michael Rooker as the returning Merle Dixon. The behind-the-scenes photos, which you can see at EW.com, are particularly interesting, as they include animated walker transformations (among them, Michonne's jawless, armless companions).
The new season, which debuts Oct. 14, finds Rick and the other refugees from the Greene farm hoping to transform the West Georgia Correctional Facility — aka the Prison — into a safe haven, only to discover the greatest threat may not come from the zombies but rather from the nearby town of Woodbury.

In the Charleston City Council race for the redrawn District 5, a talkative small business owner faces off against a Baptist pastor of few words. Both are concerned about traffic and development in their district, which encompasses parts of Johns Island and the westernmost portions of West Ashley, but neither has much to say about City Council's most prominent issues: bicycle lanes and cruise ship regulation.
The Rev. Michael Ray Mack, who answered all of the City Paper's questions in under 20 minutes, is the pastor at the Resurrection Full Gospel Baptist Church on Johns Island and has served as chairman of Apple Charter School, vice chairman of the Franklin C. Fetter Health Center, and as a member of the Charleston County School District's Constituent District 9. He wants to attract more commercial development to the island and improve traffic flow and road safety in the district.
Marvin D. Wagner, who answered the same list of questions in 56 minutes, is the owner of M.D. Wagner, Inc., an executive tax and bookkeeping company in West Ashley. He spent 32 years as a civil servant, earning Meritorious Civilian Service Awards from the Navy and Air Force and retiring as resource management flight chief at the Charleston Air Force Base. He also used his accounting experience as an adjunct professor at Trident Technical College for 20 years. He wants government to be smaller and more efficient, and he sees Johns Island and the outskirts of West Ashley as the next frontier of Charleston's expansion.
"I have watched this whole thing grow up around me, and then we woke up one morning and said, 'Hmm, maybe we need some roads,'" Wagner says. "I would think that we need to be a little more structured and make sure the infrastructure is there before we build just to start building." He says the duration of his five-mile commute from home to office has tripled over the last five years, and he adds that while new housing developments come with well-planned sidewalks, wastewater systems, and streetlights, the streets connecting them to the rest of the city often do not.
Mack, too, sees a need for infrastructure improvements, particularly on Maybank Highway. The road narrows from four lanes to two as it crosses onto Johns Island. As he understands it, the original issue preventing a four-lane highway on that part of Johns Island was a tree that people didn't want to cut down.
"I think that if a tree has to be cut down for safety on the highway, then so be it," Mack says. If elected, he also says he will push for updates at Johns Island Park — "That park over there sucks," he says — and the establishment of satellite city offices where Johns Island residents can pay their taxes and utility bills. Many Johns Island residents do not own cars, he says, and the trip to the peninsula to run simple errands is an unnecessary burden.
When it comes to the city's budget, Wagner says he thinks that the city has done a good job for the most part in eliminating unnecessary spending, but that he would bring "new eyes and new dedication" to the search for waste. When it comes to environmental issues and recycling, he says there is only so much the city can do — "You cannot legislate at any level how people act," he says. In Wagner's eyes, the city's hands are also tied in regards to regulating cruise ships. "The city cannot do it by itself," he says, noting that the state and the Ports Authority are major players, too. He does, however, say that moving the passenger terminal from Union Pier to the Columbus Street Terminal is "probably a good solution."
Mack, meanwhile, says he does not have a stance on cruise ship regulation yet. "I'm not there yet. I don't have my hands on it," he says. "I think once I get elected and get to the table and do my assessment, then I'll be able to give my opinion." Similarly, on the issue of improving bicycle safety, he says he doesn't have enough data to take a stand on issues such as creating a bicycle lane across the Ashley River. "I do believe that bicycles should be safe on highways and that they should have their own lane," he says.
Wagner, too, confesses ignorance on the topic. "That would be something we would need to work at," he says. "Somebody a lot smarter than me is going to have to figure that out."
Both candidates say they support farmers on Johns Island, but Wagner says the city cannot keep a family from selling its farmland to developers. Mack says he will take a more active approach to keeping farmers on their land. "I will not stand by and let the farmers be run off of Johns Island," Mack says. "As long as I've got a voice and a breath, farming will always be a part of the culture of Johns Island."

SANDPOINT — The cool factor is undeniable — a sleekly contoured glass keyboard that "traps" colored light inside, making the input device appear to have materialized out of thin air.
The functionality and potential for almost infinite product extension are equally attractive, as witnessed by how quickly the entrepreneur behind these new products landed funding to move ahead with the ideas.
For TransluSense President and CEO Jason Giddings, that means his original plan to start developing the über-high-tech keyboards and mouse pads has been vaulted into fast-forward. For the Sandpoint area, it means a new light-manufacturing employer that could bring more than 100 new jobs into the market once production hits full stride.
Giddings initially sought financial backing through the Kickstarter web site — a move that resulted in drumming up nearly three times the $50,000 he first envisioned as seed money for the start-up. Ready to move forward with close to $150,000 from the "crowd-funding" site, he quickly found himself in the enviable position of fielding an overture from a Swiss consulting that wanted to put another $3 million into the venture.
Things became truly surreal when Software Solutions & Technologies flew him to its offices in Zurich, where the firm's general manager Mark Collins joined him for a helicopter ride over the Swiss Alps. The two men landed at the base of the Matterhorn, where they inked the multi-million-dollar funding deal.
"With just Kickstarter, it would have been a prototype," the CEO said, adding that the infusion of Swiss funding completely revised the game plan for development.
"In a sense, it slows it down," he said. "When we received a big chunk of cash, it put us in a position where we want to this at a consumer level."
Speed must be relative, because, to the outsider's eye, things at TransluSense seem to be moving at the speed of light. The company is in the final stages of renovating a 16,000-square-foot former IT building on the south end of the Coldwater Creek campus to become the headquarters and manufacturing facility for the new products. Next month, they travel to Las Vegas for an unveiling at the Consumer Electronics Show, followed by the hiring of 15 employees to begin assembling the products in February.
What makes the keyboards and mouse pads so attractive to investors is the fact that they are not merely keyboards and mouse pads at all — they have the chameleon-like ability to be turned into whatever the end user desires. Each device is covered by a thin film that depicts familiar keyboard or mouse-tracking layouts. Want your mouse pad to become the master controller for your home theater system? Zip off one film and replace it with another that features the controls you need for the job.
Put simply, the devices are controlled by a series of LEDs that port light up through the glass. When the surface is touched, a camera picks up the connection and software does the rest.
"It becomes very intuitive — like using an iPad," said David Rogers, vice-president and director of global operations for TransluSense. "You can do things like pinch, zoom and swipe right on the keyboard."
"And because this is a multi-touch surface, we can add functionality as we move along," Giddings added.
According to the CEO, consumers will have the ability to go online and collaborate with other users to share layout designs and come up with new ones to suit their needs. TransluSense then prints out the customized film "and they have a keyboard that functions they way they want it to function," he said.
The ability to change the LED light color into almost any shade imaginable gives the devices an upscale cache in applications such as high-end restaurants, boutique hotels and other consumer or industrial settings where a keyboard might be prominently placed. Unlike traditional input devices, where dust or bits of food can become trapped, the TransluSense products can be cleaned by wiping them off.
That last feature has not been lost on the medical community, which already has been working with the company to find new ways to mitigate infection by keeping touch surfaces as clean as possible.
"We've got some hospital groups that are anxious to see how this would work in a hospital application," Rogers said.
Not surprisingly, this fast-moving tech firm has envisioned a next-generation product that could prove even more effective against germs. By replacing the LEDs with UV lighting at specific frequencies, the devices could become a weapon to keep infection at bay in labs, nursing stations and exam rooms of the future.
"We have the ability to port in UV lighting that actually kills bacteria," Giddings said.
Outside of the medical field, TransluSense has entered into a partnership with Intel, giving it instant access to one of the more robust distribution channels in the industry.
"They have identified our product as something that can prop up their desktop market," Rogers said. "It's a way to get new and innovative products into the marketplace."
TransluSense expects to turn out about 5,000 keyboards per month when production starts early next year. Its assembly area has been designed so that new modules can be added as demand grows, allowing for incremental increases in both production and local employment.
"We'll have 15 people in assembly to start, but that will go up dramatically pretty quickly," the CEO said.
"We could put as many as 130 people in here," he continued, adding that 100 assemblers would be joined by employees working in the areas of sales and finance. "At that level, we could turn out about 100,000 keyboards a month."
It sounds like a huge figure, but compared with the biggest producers out there, it still would represent a small slice of the international pie, Rogers pointed out.
"We're very much a niche business," he said, "but we're excited about making that niche go."
Luckily for Bonner County, Giddings grew up in the Spokane area and revisited his old roots when searching for a place to start his new business. Big cities were out, he explained, because he didn't want to be just one more company doing business in a big pond.
"We could have gone someplace like Portland, but coming to Sandpoint allows us to make an impact on the community," said Giddings, who moved his family to the area as part of building the new company. "It's an opportunity for me and we wanted to extend that opportunity by creating jobs locally."
He credits Sandpoint's planning director, Jeremy Grimm, and other area officials for making him aware of the vacant Coldwater Creek building, as well as for steering him toward resources for employee training and job creation.
In a corner of the business world where new products can be realized almost as soon as they can be imagined, it might be tempting for an entrepreneur such as Giddings to leverage his background in product design and his international manufacturing connections in order to jump headlong into the tech market. But executing a vision — even one that attracted millions in capital in a just matter of weeks — tends to be a time-intensive stage of company development.
"While I'd like to turn this on at full speed ahead, it's probably smarter not to, because the infrastructure is literally coming together beneath our feet," said the CEO, whose closed office door barely masks the sounds of construction going on throughout the rest of the building.
Besides, he added with a laugh, things have been moving fast enough over the past year.
"It has been one moment of excitement and one moment of sheer terror, back-to-back, since the start of this whole game," he said.

Born: 19th Jan 1991.
Died: 11th Aug 2010.
Tejaswee's blog.
LAST POST WRITTEN ON 29TH JULY, was after this one.
It's difficult for me to talk about it now. All I would say is we have decided it would help tremendously to channelize our grief in some positive direction. A relative hugged me during her funeral and said, "Now this grief will go with you to your grave. Till the last moment of your life, till your last breath, this baby you gave birth to and loved is going to make you cry." And suddenly something snapped. My daughter was an easy child to raise. My dearest friend and my closest ally, a confidante, a companion, we talked endlessly, we shopped, we read, we laughed at the same things and I never had to face any of the parenting problems one hears about. I feel I was extremely fortunate to have her with me for the best nineteen and a half years of my life. The thought of crying and not smiling fondly whenever I thought of her – a girl who never made anybody cry… I knew I did not want that.
We have all decided to talk about her without bitterness. One of her closest friends visited me and helped reactivate her Facebook account. (I had persuaded Tejaswee to deactivate it last month because I felt she was spending too much time on facebook). We have decided to understand that everybody has to go someday, she left earlier than we would have liked. We have decided to see which of her causes we can support. One of the thoughts is to start a scholarship in her name, maybe a fund. I would appreciate suggestions for this. And also any suggestions that help us stay positive.

Naomh Conaill are heading to Ballyvourney in West Cork this weekend to defend their All-Ireland Comórtas Peil Na Gaeltachta title they won for the first time last year.
Naomh Conaill are also the reigning Donegal champions following last month's county final victory over neighbours, Ardara. However, Ardara will also travel as the Donegal representatives in the senior section.
And that is why Naomh Conaill have to play a preliminary round while Ardara go straight into the quarter-final, something that has not gone down well in Glenties.
"We find it very strange that we as All-Ireland and Donegal champions are in the preliminary round and Ardara go straight to the quarter final," said Martin Doherty, joint manager of Naomh Conaill along with Martin Regan.
"We feel it is very unfair that as the champions we have a preliminary round game on Saturday morning and if we win that we have a quarter-final on Saturday evening.
"We made our feelings known to the organisers on the matter but they wouldn't budge so we have no choice but to accept and play the game."
Naomh Conaill will face Belmullet, the Mayo champions, in the preliminary round game on Saturday at 12.30.
The winners will face either Moycullen, Galway or Wolfe Tones, Meath, in the quarter-final. The throw-in for that game is 7.30 pm. Moycullen and Wolfe Tones also meet in a preliminary round on Saturday morning.
Ardara face An Rinn from Waterford in the first of the quarter-finals on Saturday at 4.30 pm. The finals are being hosted by Naomh Aban, Ballyvourney.
Both Naomh Conaill and Adara are travelling without their county players due to the closeness to Donegal's championship clash with Fermanagh the following weekend.
In the case of Naomh Conaill they will be without Leo McLoone, Anthony and Ciaran Thompson while Paddy McGrath is not travelling with Ardara. They will also be without their county minors.
The Leaving Certificate and injury has also stripped both squads of a number of key young players.
"I know we are without the county men and the eight lads doing the Leaving Cert but we still will have a strong enough side and we are going down to defend our title," Martin Doherty insisted.
Former county seniors Dermot 'Brick' Molloy, Darragh Gallagher, Marty Boyle and Brendan McDyer - who has returned from a lengthy injury lay off (and nuptials) in recent weeks - will backbone the Naomh Conaill line-up. Leon Thompson is also carrying an injury.
Ardara already without Paddy McGrath, are making the trip without the injured Brendan Boyle and Jimmy O'Connell and Cathal Gallagher and Tomás Boyle, who have headed to the US for the summer.
However, Declan Gavigan and Gareth Concarr, who missed last weekend's league clash with Naomh Conaill, are set to return and along with team captain Conor Classon, Kevin Herron and Ryan Malley, will lead the Ardara challenge.
Downings will fly the Donegal flag in the junior championship in Cork. Andy Connor and his men also face a preliminary round meeting with Kilcommon from Mayo, on Saturday, throw in 11 am.
The semi-finals are on Sunday and the finals are on Monday.

text: KIRKUS REVIEW In a cheerful, if hardly startling, review, Clarke traces humankind's transformation from a mosaic of isolated states into a true global community--through modern communications-technology that began with the laying of the first submarine cables and continues to future visions of "talkmen" (Walkman-like telephones). The story of the laying of the first submarine communications-cables--highly speculative ventures to which many men's fortunes, careers, and spirits were eagerly sacrificed--is one of the most profound of the 19th century, Clarke suggests; and he proves it by describing the nerve-racking succession of broken cables, entangled whales, and deadly silences that led to the miraculous, transformative intercontinental communications. Clarke maintains that the first messages to cross the oceans sparked a thirst for increased interaction that has yet to be slaked, and that led, almost inevitably, to such astonishing technical achievements as the telephone, long-distance service, TV, satellite communications, and fiber optics. Clarke's off-repeated hope is that universal communication will continue to transform what has become a global village into an interactive global family--easing ignorance through satellite-beamed, televised education in rural areas (as demonstrated in India); discouraging war through live, uncensored broadcasts from battle scenes (via such 24-hour coverage as CNN's) and through satellite surveillance; and, perhaps, even allowing for diversity within the global whole as small communities take what they need from dozens of orbiting moons while maintaining their independence. Little here is new--Clarke must be hoarse from repeating this message--but such a charming, pleasurable retelling of the societal unification myth is certainly worthwhile.

If You Like Flowers
The Cottage District has flowers, bright and beautiful.
Let's visit the Cottage District.
This is one house in the District that does flowers up right with a beautiful seating area from which to admire them.
This garden is a bit bigger than most in the Cottage District.
Many hot colors are throughout this bright garden.
The Sedum is artfully arranged along the fence.
Typical of the District, no space is left unplanted or left bare.
But really not much is only green.

For some autos, you're advised to alter the coolant every single 30,000 miles. I as a result chose to conduct testing to figure out if pure antifreeze or antifreeze mixed with water in a 50% remedy (coolant) would ignite or burn. Nevertheless, given that the majority of the International engine coolant industry makes use of either glycols or water we will concentrate on the use of these materials when discussing engine coolants and heat transfer fluids. If you have doubts about switching from the red or green kind of antifreeze to the new orange extended life antifreezes, contain your gear manufacturer or dealer and ask about compatibility with your engine parts and cooling system.
Some older automobiles have no coolant reservoir, so to verify and add coolant, you have to open the cap on the radiator. A difference of up to 10° F can be noticed if the antifreeze becoming tested is hot or cold. If the coolant appears clean, start the job by jacking up the vehicle and supporting it with jack stands. When the coolant has reached the finish of its service life you will want to take the auto to a professional mechanic to have the complete program flushed and replaced with fresh coolant. This and the suitable mixture of coolant and distilled water are the lifeblood towards maintaining your technique operating cool.
The effortless element is that most antifreeze makers nevertheless make coolant with ethylene glycol (EG), a kind of alcohol made from ethane. If you are topping up the coolant level it really is essential that you identify the expansion tank correctly – adding antifreeze to the screen wash, brake fluid or energy steering reservoir would be a really poor idea. An antifreeze/coolant flush and fill at typical intervals can assist stop overheating, freezing and premature cooling-program corrosion. In addition, automobiles that overheat due to old coolant are much more probably to suffer a blown head gasket, which is extremely expensive to repair.
Engine coolant, or anti-freeze as it's generally recognized, ensures your engine doesn't freeze or overheat. Lots of misinformation about the compatibility of the different varieties of coolant technologies exists in literature and the marketplace. Rated five out of five by Rebuilderdude from Engine has fewer noises, shifts smoother I utilised Royal Purple oil following draining to lubricate my work with my drill press one time. Yet another side impact of more than-cooling is lowered functionality of the cabin heater, even though in typical circumstances it still blows air at a significantly greater temperature than ambient.
If there are coolant hoses connected to the intake manifold or throttle physique, disconnect them at the other ends, and let the element to drain. Where engines are mid- or rear-mounted, it is frequent to mount the radiator behind a front grill to achieve adequate airflow, even though this demands long coolant pipes. At the end of the service life of a particular kind of antifreeze, it is ideal to flush the entire technique.

The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas is a musical with a book by Texas author Larry L. King and Peter Masterson and music and lyrics by Carol Hall. It is based on a story by King that was inspired by the real-life Chicken Ranch in La Grange, Texas.
It is the late 1970s, and a brothel has been operating outside of fictional Gilbert, Texas (subbing for real locale La Grange) for more than a century. It is under the proprietorship of Miss Mona Stangley, having been left to her by the original owner. While taking care of her girls, she is also on good terms with the local sheriff, Ed Earl Dodd. When crusading television reporter Melvin P. Thorpe (based on real-life Houston news personality Marvin Zindler) decides to make the illegal activity an issue, political ramifications cause the place to be closed down.
Production history[edit]
The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas opened on Broadway at the 46th Street Theatre on June 19, 1978, and ran for 1,584 performances. The production was directed by Peter Masterson and Tommy Tune and choreographed by Tune and Thommie Walsh. The opening cast included Carlin Glynn, Henderson Forsythe, Jay Garner, Joan Ellis, Delores Hall, and Pamela Blair. Glynn was replaced by Fannie Flagg and Anita Morris later in the run. Alexis Smith starred as Miss Mona in the first U.S. National Tour, September 1979 through February 1981,[1] with stops in major cities from Boston to Los Angeles.
In what was described as "a return engagement", the show opened on Broadway at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre on May 31, 1982, and closed on July 24, 1982, after nine previews and 63 performances. The cast featured Glynn and Hall.[2]
The West End production opened at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane on February 26, 1981, again starring Glynn and Forsythe. It ran for 204 performances.[3]
A short-lived sequel entitled The Best Little Whorehouse Goes Public was staged on Broadway in 1994.
"The Aggie Song" was performed on the Tony Awards broadcast, but was heavily censored because of the nature of the lyrics and choreography.
A U.S. National Tour starring Ann-Margret opened on February 14, 2001.[4]
A benefit concert took place on October 16, 2006, to benefit the Actor's Fund. The concert was directed by Mark S. Hoebee and choreographed by Denis Jones. The cast included Terrence Mann (as Sheriff Ed Earl Dodd), Emily Skinner, and Jennifer Hudson.[5]
A revival production of the musical was staged on London's Fringe at The Union Theatre, October through November 2011, starring Sarah Lark as Miss Mona, Nancy Sullivan as Shy and Leon Craig as Melvin P. Thorpe. Ensemble members included Jarred Page, Sasi Strallen, Katy Streader, Frankie Jenna, Patrick George, Dayle Hodge and Dan O'Brian. The production was directed by Paul Taylor-Mills.
A Broadway revival, with direction and choreography from Rob Ashford, was reportedly in the works in 2015.[6][7]

The first element of these styles to consider is gold. Because wood was always a prominent feature in Baroque furniture, gilding was often applied and the ornamentation was almost always done in gold. This bedroom features several telling characteristics, such as the extravagant gold ornamentation atop the tufted headboard. While that is decidedly Baroque, the lavish bedding is more Rococo because it is made from silk.
Baroque and Rococo decor are popular styles, and bedrooms are one of the places in your home where these eras of design can shine. The characteristics of Baroque furniture and Rococo elements are perfect for a space meant to be opulent, relaxing and luxurious. Curving lines, ample embellishment and sumptuous fabrics, which are typical of these styles, make a bedroom extra special.

We spent our last night in Adelaide being accommodated by our good friends Trevor and Carolanne. Trevor made the comment "I helped you move into this house and now I've helped you move out!" We were up before 6.00am and I did some final re-arranging of our possessions in the rental car. Every last small space had something squeezed into it. Carolanne cooked us a breakfast with the idea of providing us with some energy for the road. By 7.30 we were on our way. Ahead of us was a journey roughly equivalent driving from Stafford to Rome. The plan was to stop for a rest break every 2 hours. This would also give Bella (our miniature daschund) the opportunity for a toilet stop.
The first stop was just beyond the town of Lamaroo. By then we were on the Mallee Highway in the heart of the wheat belt.
These "scrubby" looking trees are very drought resistant and exceptionally hardy. When cut for firewood they will burn for hours. Unfortunately they don't have many other uses. The entire countryside was covered in them before the Europeans arrived and settled the area. It must have been exceptionally hard work clearing the land.
We stayed on the Mallee Highway across South Australia and Victoria before arriving at the New South Wales border after a drive of approximately six hours.
