NVIDIA Studio Laptops the Best Choice for Creatives
Apple recently launched its latest MacBook Pro for creators.
While these laptops provide an upgrade compared to prior gen MacBooks, they fall well short of RTX-powered NVIDIA Studio laptops. New MacBook Pro buyers should expect to spend at least 11,000aed. At the same time, Nvidia Studio laptops exceed the MacBook Pro for such creative pursuits as 3D modelling, video editing and graphics design. Plus, NVIDIA Studio has many excellent choices of system that cost less and offer a lot more advantages in addition to being faster.
key reasons why Creatives Should ONLY Consider Nvidia Studio Laptops
NVIDIA earned its reputation primarily with gamers because of their graphics processing solutions, but these same GPUS and supporting software can also support creation.
NVIDIA Studio is a full end-to-end accelerated computing platform for Creators, aiming to help artists create faster and better.
PERFORMANCE - NVIDIA Studio products are equipped with the RTX GPUs – the most advanced and the fastest GPU in the world. They are 5X faster performance for 3D content creation, and the fastest when it comes to video/photo editing
AI ACCELERATED APPS - NVIDIA Studio has over 75 of the top creative applications accelerated for RTX GPUs, including the top apps for Photography: Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom, The top apps for video editing: Adobe Premiere Pro and Blackmagic Davinci Resolve, The top broadcasting app, OBS, and every major 3D rendering including Blender, Autodesk Maya, 3DS Max, V-Ray to name a few - and this is in addition to over 200 apps that are accelerated for NVIDIA GPUs. Additionally, with NVIDIA Studio drivers, creators can have a super stable experience as NVIDIA Drivers are thoroughly tested against a long list of the top creative apps avoiding your system to crash or being slow.
The biggest growing sector of content creation is 3D. We are seeing how several factors are converging towards it - the eruption of virtual worlds, the increase in usage of AR and VR, and the increased accessibility to creation tools that allow artists to dive into 3D. Most content creators will have to start adding 3D to their workflow. And for this, NVIDIA Studio Laptops stand in a class on their own. Here are the top 5 3D rendering apps, and you can see how the performance compares between NVIDIA Studio laptops and MacBook Pros.
This amazing performance comes from the RTX GPU - which is not only faster but also features dedicated hardware acceleration for ray tracing, and AI denoising for quick and responsive feedback.
If you add on top of this the possibilities that the NVIDIA Omniverse platform provides, there's really only one choice for creators - NVIDIA Studio.
Not only NVIDIA studio is perfect for 3D artists, they are also fantastic for video and photo editing. You can see here the benchmark of NVIDIA Studio Laptops in the most popular photo editing apps. In a sample project, NVIDIA GPUs finish the work much faster than MacBook Pro 16s with the M1 Pro or M1 Max.
EXLUSIVE USEFUL FREE APPS - Another great reason is the fact that, NVIDIA Studio has a powerful set of exclusive free apps to support creators in unique ways such as NVIDIA Omniverse to accelerate 3D creation and collaboration, Broadcast allowing you to use AI to enhance your microphone, webcam and speakers, turning any room into a home studio. It's incredibly useful for streamers, students, and professional meetings, and finally Canvas allowing you to draw beautiful landscapes with a few simple strokes, all vastly reducing the time needed in drafting and concept work
Another great reason is the extensive choice in form factors, features and performance as NVIDIA Studio is available in a wide array of Studio validated systems: from ultra portable laptops to all-in-one minimalistic PCs, to ultra powerful multi-GPU workstations.
To share an example of what some of the 3D artists have to say about NVIDIA Studio Laptops, checkout this video https://nvda.ws/3IzKipy to hear what Stijn Windig has to say about NVIDIA Studio laptops, Stijn is the Concept Artist at Digicomm.ae which is one of the most reputable creative content creators in the UAE, additionally checkout https://nvda.ws/3aTYbDm to hear what Ihsan from TGMProduction has to say about NVIDIA Studio laptops. TGMProduction is a local company that specializes in producing commercial videos & photography for TV and Social media
NVIDIA Studio are the ultimate laptops for creators. Compared to the new MacBook Pros, NVIDIA Studio laptops feature:
·Fastest performance, stability, compatibility for creators and gamers thanks to NVIDIA RTX, the most advanced GPUs
·5X faster performance for 3D content creation plus the fastest video/photo editing performance – For example, a rendering job that would take 95min (octane) on Mac would only take 10minutes on a RTX3080 studio laptop which is a huge difference and benefit.
- 75+ RTX accelerated creative apps helping you improve your workflow and create faster saving you tons of time.
- Exclusive, free creative apps including Omniverse, Broadcast, and Canvas
- Offer ultimate gaming experience and the latest gaming technologies.
- Extensive choice in form factors, features and performance with over 100 Studio designs from our OEM partners
As you can see, NVIDIA Studio is a comprehensive top to bottom platform providing distinct value to creators. Checkout this page HERE and this video HERE to learn more.

"Our only hope in fighting this virus is to get vaccinated. Those of us who have gotten the jab will stand a much better chance of survival than those who have not. I want you to stop reading nonsense on social media, stop listening to stupid people spreading propaganda that have no medical knowledge. GO AND GET VACCINATED."
Al Thompson, President of A.L. Thompson's
(CMR) Local home improvement retailer, A.L. Thompson's, has become the latest organization in the Cayman Islands to require mandatory vaccination for all eligible employees. In an internal memo, President Al Thompson expresses frustration at people outright refusing to get vaccinated for a disease "where death could be the final outcome."
He notes that as of Monday employees are required to provide evidence of vaccination or a doctor's letter stating why they should not be vaccinated. He states that he wants no excuses but just "want this done." In order to incentivize employees further, he noted that the company's voluntary bonus payouts for the ned of June have been postponed by a week until all results of "what staff have been or not been vaccinated."
Speaking exclusively to CMR Thompson shared that no decision has been made regarding the future payout of bonuses.
He thanks his staff for their hard work and ends with "I know we can count on everyone to cooperate.
In late May 2020, they had at least two confirmed positive cases at the island's largest hardware retailer. At that time, they implemented numerous COVID-19 safety protocols including mandatory PCR testing. They were closed for about five days due to the infection. His organization at the time employed close to 200 people.
Last month CMR reported that the Health Services Authority has decided to make vaccination mandatory at the time of contract renewal or signing for its employees. It explained that as frontline workers they had a particular obligation to protect patients from the virus. That message was also distributed via an internal memo to all employees.
This hardline comes after a fringe anti-vaccination meeting hosted by Katina Anglin was held at the George Town Town Hall on Saturday evening. CMR understands that she collected money "much like a church sermon" as she vowed to fight the COVID vaccination and take legal action if necessary. Stating that this was "an educational seminar" aimed at informing people on their "patient rights, informed consent, and the legal position on medical treatments."
Many countries and companies including universities around the world have already begun mandating the vaccine. There are some 15 countries around the world that have imposed compulsory vaccination at some level.
Several European countries have made COVID-19 vaccines mandatory for healthcare workers. In Greek mandatory inoculation for healthcare and nursing staff has been implemented. France and Hungary announced it is now compulsory for healthcare workers after a surge in cases driven by the fast-spreading Delta variant. Italy was the first European country to mandate the shots for health workers through a government emergency decree.
In San Francisco, California it was announced that all 35,000 city employees would have to get the jab. Zimbabwe has followed suit for all civil servants.
In France and Israel, people must be vaccinated to enter public buildings.
Mandatory vaccinations have been used during other times in history including when the United States was fighting the smallpox vaccination in the 19th century. The Supreme Court ruled in 1905 that doing so was constitutional.
Several days ago a US federal judge rejected a request from students to block Indiana University's vaccine mandate. Students who refuse to vaccinate cannot attend classes.
In the Cayman Islands, the PACT government has so far indicated that it is seeking legal advice and contemplating making vaccination mandatory for work permit holders. The Human Rights Commission has already given the government its blessings to mandate vaccines with proper safeguards in place.

Good for dairy and gluten free.
These biscuits are good considering they are dairy and gluten free. There is a distinct powdery texture to the biscuits and a distinctive taste but definitely recommend to those with allergy. I prefer the plain ones over the raspberry flavoured ones.
So good for gluten and dairy free
They are an excellent cookie, great on it's own or with a cuppa. It's not as buttery and soft as a cafe style version but for a gluten and dairy free cookie it's amazing!
Quite nice
Looks like like a regular melting moment but you can absolutely taste the difference. I still think they taste pretty good but nothing beats the sugared up version!
best GF bikkies on the market
This is the better of the gluten free biscuits you can buy at the supermarket, they are not dry like the other GF biscuits out there.

The difference between Woolen Spun and Worsted Spun
October 19, 2021
Woolen yarns are spun with the fibers going every which way. This causes the yarn to be light, airy with small fiber ends poking out. They are also warmer because of the airiness. Worsted yarns are spun with all the fibers aligned, making a smooth and dense yarn with more sheen and drape. Many commercial yarns are spun with the worsted style.
I once had it explained very simply: Woolen spun yarns are like bedhair in the morning - going every which way, and worsted spun are like hair after it's been combed.
Examples of Woolen Spun:
Cascade Eco+ Merino DK
Cascade BFL
Examples of Worsted Spun (not a complete list):
Malabrgio Rios
Cascade 220 Superwash

Learning Objectives
After this lab you should be able to:
- Define pH.
- Explain the quantitative difference between two different pH values, for example, pH 4 and pH 6.
- Describe the major effects pH changes can have on a cell.
"Growth of the bacterium Clostridium botulinum in canned food may cause botulism—a deadly form of food poisoning. These bacteria exist either as spores or as vegetative cells. The spores, which are comparable to plant seeds, can survive harmlessly in soil and water for many years. When ideal conditions exist for growth, the spores produce vegetative cells, which multiply rapidly and may produce a deadly toxin within 3 to 4 days of growth.
Acidity may be natural, as in most fruits, or added, as in pickled food. Low-acid canned foods are not acidic enough to prevent the growth of these bacteria. Acid foods contain enough acid to block their growth, or destroy them more rapidly when heated. The term "pH" is a measure of acidity; the lower its value, the more acid the food. The acidity level in foods can be increased by adding lemon juice, citric acid, or vinegar."

Sergio Romo was an incredibly-loved San Francisco Giant for 11 seasons after getting drafted by the team in 2005. So, it was a little bit jarring for fans to deal with the idea that their beloved middle reliever became a heated rival this February when he joined the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Wednesday, KNBR commentator and former San Francisco Giants second baseman Duane Kuiper came on KNBR's Murph & Mac with strong words about Romo and his new squad, saying despite Romo's obvious loyalty to the franchise, it's going to be difficult to welcome him back to AT&T Park with open arms.
"I think he's gonna do the stank eye look, I think he's gonna do what he does, and it might actually pick up a little bit if he were to strike out Buster Posey with the bases loaded."
Word clearly reached Sergio Romo, who felt so strongly about Kuip's comments that he reached out directly to Paulie Mac via text message to respond. The 3-time World Series champ made clear his lengthy messages were meant for Mac to read on-air in order to reach as many members of the Giants' family as possible.
"I heard Kuip's interview and take on me going to the Dodgers. No lie i am not [Brian] Willson, nor did i leave with a sour taste in my mouth about anything, even though I am no longer needed there. I know what I was a part of and I left my heart out there whenever i got the ball no matter who it was against."
"It wasn't my choice not to be a giant again as I was straight up told I didn't have a spot there anymore. So, I chose la for my family and not to piss off, in spite, nor to hurt anyone with the Giants. I have no vendetta and no ill-will towards any of my friends that I was made to leave behind in San Francisco. I will not do anything to show any of them up up as I respect and truly love everyone one of them for the way they accepted me and let me play on their team.
"Paulie, if you can convey this message for me to all your listeners that I am beyond appreciative of the experiences and blessings that I was given when I was being a giant I am now left with only trying to be the best Sergio Romo that I can be, but is no longer wanted on the Giants' roster. It hurts though, that after 12 years of only knowing the orange and black, that I am forced to leave my home that has given me so much. I would like it if everyone would just stop talking trash about me and my life, I will truly be leaving my heart in San Francisco and that's no lie. Appreciate you and Murph to the max. God bless you brother and that's what's up! 🙂 :)"
Romo, 33, was drafted by the Giants in the 28th round of the 2005 draft, and spent his entire career in San Francisco up until this February. The right-hander missed a healthy chunk of the season in 2016 recovering from elbow surgery, but ended up finishing with solid numbers, his 2.64 ERA his lowest since 2013.

Simple Table Runner
Just a simple table runner to share today! This I made from a charm pack of Antique Fair from Moda I picked up at my LQS. The pattern is not original (nor difficult) and I used a picture I found online of a table runner. I also made this one the same way. Easy, peasy and quick, yet satisfying. And oh so fun to free motion quilt without the usual weight of an entire bed quilt like I'm usually doing!
This was a birthday present for my mom. I picked up the charm pack since the country colours made me think of her!

If you've been suffering with fibromyalgia, you may have tried everything to no avail. The debilitating disorder can significantly impact quality of life, and so many of the treatments and medications can have unbearable side effects, leaving sufferers exhausted with low mood, low energy, and low motivation. Here at Bodyline Wellness Clinics, we offer an incredible solution that has seen users completely alter their lives for the better. So how can we help you?
What causes Fibromyalgia?
Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and tenderness in localized areas. It is often accompanied by other symptoms such as sleep disturbances, headaches, and cognitive difficulties. While the exact cause of fibromyalgia is not known, however it is believed to involve abnormal processing of pain signals in the brain.
Unfortunately, fibromyalgia is a difficult condition to treat, as there is no cure and the available treatments are often ineffective or have unpleasant side effects. However, there is hope in the form of low dose naltrexone (LDN) treatment.
What is Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN)?
Naltrexone is an opioid antagonist that has been used for years to treat addiction by blocking the effects of opioids. However, in low doses, it has been found to have beneficial effects on the immune system. LDN works by blocking the opioid receptors for a short period of time, which triggers the body to produce more endorphins. Endorphins are natural painkillers that help to reduce pain levels and improve mood.
Research shows that LDN treatment can be effective in reducing pain and improving quality of life for people with fibromyalgia. In one study, patients who received LDN treatment reported significant improvement in pain, fatigue, and quality of life compared to those who received a placebo.
LDN treatment is safe and well-tolerated, with few side effects. It is also prescribed to those who suffer with other auto-immune diseases and inflammation, such as Crohn's disease and long Covid. The most common side effect is vivid dreams, which usually resolve within a few days. Some patients may also experience nausea, headache, or dizziness, but these side effects are typically mild and transient.
Most users see results in around 3 months, and continue to feel complete relief from chronic pain, as well as seeing benefits across every element of their lives. Without the pain of fibromyalgia, mental health can improve, mobility will increase, and the quality of life will sky rocket.
How can I get LDN for Fibromyalgia treatment?
If you are thinking about using LDN treatment for fibromyalgia, it is important to work with a healthcare provider who is knowledgeable about this treatment. Here at Bodyline Wellness Clinics, we have expert clinicians who can talk you through an LDN treatment programme that works best for you. The first step in your LDN journey would be to contact Bodyline Wellness Clinics to find out if this treatment is right for your needs. You can call us on 0800 995 3036 or fill in our online contact form for a call back.
We can prescribe LDN to you as part of a treatment programme for fibromyalgia when you have tried everything and nothing seems to work. To find out whether you are eligible for an LDN prescription, get in touch and we can discuss your individual needs.
Once we are satisfied you meet the criteria for LDN here at Bodyline, we can provide consultations, a titration and prescription process, and monthly reviews, along with support calls every other week to make sure you are content and the plan is working for you. Our bespoke service will ensure you are supported and happy as you start seeing results!
We have over 17 years of clinical experience, and over 100,000 happy customers and clients that have seen significant improvements in their lives thanks to our medical wellness treatments and programmes.
Fibromyalgia is a challenging condition that can be difficult to manage. However, low dose naltrexone treatment offers a promising option for people with fibromyalgia who are looking for effective and safe treatment. If you are struggling with fibromyalgia, get in touch today and see if it may be right for you.


text: 3 Reel SlotsPlay NowThree-reel slots tend to polarize opinions between slot players. Some people love them whereas others cannot think of anything duller to play. Of course, life isn't that simple, and three-reel slots cannot all be classified in the same manner. If you want to know whether you should play these games, look through our questions below. They might help you decide. Do you love classic slot games?If so, three-reel games are going to appeal – perhaps more than anything else. They're based on the original one-armed bandits, and while they have changed in some ways, they are often designed to recall those glory days. Do you like straightforward games?Some slots are very complex, requiring a good read of the rules before you begin play. Three-reel slots are the opposite of this. If all you want to do is pick a slot, sit down, and play it without any hassle, these are the games for you. Do you prefer games with plenty of bonus possibilities?If so, you would be better off playing some five-reel slots. These provide more room to fit in various bonuses. You might occasionally see a bonus in a three-reel game, but this is rare, and they tend not to be that complex. Do you want to try a game you can play for a while?The biggest issue with three-reel slots is they can become repetitive if you play over a longer time. This isn't always the case; there are occasions when you'll see a three-reel game involving multipliers and wilds that is a delight to try. However, many games are basic and get dull after a while. If you want to play for longer, complex five-reel games can offer far more. Make your choice todayRemember, you can play all types of slots depending on what mood you are in. However, we wouldn't advise missing out an entire category of slots just because you don't tend to like most of them. If you do that, you could well end up missing out on one or two great games you would enjoy if you tried them. Remember too that some three-reel games are available in demo format. That means you can try them to see if you want to play for a while, rather than avoiding them altogether. You never know whether you might encounter one you love to play. Play Now

Dr. Randolph's Reviews
November 28, 2023
Loved meeting Linda and having her help! She is awesome and I was impressed with how she took time to listen to me about all my concerns leading up to delivery.
October 3, 2023
Had a Med student and a new midwife come in to get a history, which I am fine with! However once this provider came in- she asked no questions about anything they obtained- did a breast exam, did pap, and was on the way out the door asking if I had questions- which I did. So I didn't appreciate that especially considering the wait. She overall brushed off my questions and I had to push for something my OBGYN recommended for this visit if I was still having issues, who is now gone.
June 12, 2023
I've recommended this office & my provider to a couple of my pregnant friends! Great office
April 2, 2023
I have xxx and compared to previous gyn here they never run any preventive tests, which worries me. I had to ask for a sonogram. In other clinics doctors will monitor my hormone levels, do preventive sonogram, had better and different treatment to my conditions. Here the only option they offer me is birth control options, I feel the doctor is jot specialized on my condition.
March 26, 2023
Doctor Randolph was concerned for me and baby, but shared the information in a way that caused me excessive concern. Overall, she seems like a good doctor, but her bedside manner has me worried for my unborn child now.

Although Greater Manchester has seen a 12% increase in number of new built houses in 2015, the region is still far behind the amount needed.
Government figures reveal that a total of 4,260 new homes were built in Greater Manchester in the last year – 460 more houses than the year before.
Of course, this sounds like great news for anyone trying to move to the area to begin with. And it is. But it also points out that the city is still well behind the pace of house building across the rest of England.
The increase all over the country was registered at an average of 21% regarding the number of completed homes, in other words last year saw an extra of 25,170 new home built.
Manchester accounted for 870 out of those newly-finished homes, up by 24% from the previous year.
Impressive at first, but when compared to the area's peak in 2008, when Greater Manchester welcomed an extra 3,520 new homes, the recent numbers seem to lose a bit of their power.
Not all of Manchester's boroughs were lucky enough to even register a rise in numbers in the last year. Several of them, in fact, saw a fall in total numbers of completed homes in 2015.
Greater Manchester's Stockport, for example, only registered 260 new homes, a drop of 35% from the 400 properties built one year prior.
Leader of Stockport Council, Sue Derbyshire, stated those figures came as a surprise to her but was convinced that it wasn't the result of a lack in council action, whilst also explaining that there is a fair number of developments which have been granted planning permission in 2015 but haven't been completed yet.
She said: "I think that it tends to be that building tends to be started in one year and finished in the next. It is nothing that we're doing which is discouraging house building."
Nevertheless, Derbyshire also voiced her opinion that this was not even close to enough new houses and that Greater Manchester as a whole region needs to build more accommodation.
Oldham, another Greater Manchester borough, also suffered a considerable drop in number of new homes being built. The borough only registered 300 new homes finished by the end of 2015, a 41% decrease from 2014's 510 new homes built.
The council fought those results by arguing that the results don't represent reality due to a difference in the time scale used in the report, stating that Oldham was actually well ahead of its target.
A spokesperson for Oldham Council said: "All councils are under pressure to provide housing. We are meeting our housing need with the finances we are given by the government."
"We are not underachieving in any way."

You might be wondering how search engines decide what websites to show to searchers when they display their lists of results. When someone enters a search term into a search engine like Google, the search engine will use an algorithm to analyse, find, and then display, what it considers is the most relevant set of results.
To do this the search engine scans its index of millions and millions of websites to compare them so it can bring back the best answer. It does this instantly, displaying the top 10 or so in list format to searchers. If searchers don't like the first ten results, they can click through to the second page, or even the third. Most people never do this however, so it's important to get on the first page of search engine listings, and preferably into the first 1-3 positions.
So how do search engines decide what webpages are the most relevant result for searchers? Every search engine uses a different algorithm, so the answer varies, but for now let's focus on Google, since it's by far the most popular. Google doesn't make all the factors it uses to decide search position clear, but there ARE some factors that are widely known to influence Google ranking.
1. Relevancy: When people search, they are usually seeking information on a specific topic, so Google looks for pages that appear to host the most relevant content for that search term. If you were looking for healthy food, for example, you'd be disappointed if a search engine gave you a list of results on garages! Google crawls websites to spot pages that seem to be a close match for the keyword a searcher has used. The thing is, there are 1000's, if not millions of pages that might be relevant for most of the keywords people search for, and Google can't show them all.
If you were to search the term banana smoothie for example, you'd get 56 million results! To sort out what results to show on the first page, then the second page and so on, Google's algorithm looks at two other factors – Authority and Usefulness.
2. Authority: Google decides whether the content it crawls is trustworthy and relevant to what searchers are looking for. To assign an authority ranking, Google weighs up how many backlinks from trusted sites a webpage has managed to obtain. The more trusted backlinks from relevant sites, the higher any webpage will rank in Google's authority rankings.
3. Usefulness: Even if Google gives your content a high authority and relevancy value, it will still need to look at its usefulness before it ranks it in search. If Google doesn't think your content is useful, it won't score you highly. Google has even stated that it assesses content for both quality AND usefulness. So, what would be an example of content that Google might view as useful?
A webpage with content that is well-organised, that uses clear language and makes use of sub-headers to break up large text chunks, would get a high usefulness score from Google. Even if that page didn't have many quality backlinks it would still do well in Google search results.
The reason this sort of page receives a ranking boost is because Google measures how useful a page is based on how users interact with it. This is known as User Experience Signals. A page that is well-organised, well-structured, and clear makes it's more likely that when users click through, they'll have a positive experience and stay for longer.
Spend time creating well-structured quality content that people enjoy interacting with, so you boost your User Experience Signal rating. When Google crawls its index of sites, it measures User Experience Signals, to try and discover the websites people love. It then prioritises the sites that offer the best User Experience in its rankings, making User Experience Signals an extremely important factor to focus on.

Synthesia is an video AI generator that allows users to create videos that look realistic with artificial intelligence technology. This is especially useful for businesses who want to produce videos without having a production team, as the software allows users to quickly and effortlessly create professional-quality videos in a matter of minutes. In this article, we will explore how Synthesia functions in addition to the benefits of using video AI generators such as Synthesia.
Synthesia Io
How Synthesia Works
Synthesia uses a combination of artificial intelligence and machine-learning technology to create realistic-looking videos. The process starts by the user choosing a video template, which can be customized with different backgrounds, texts, and images. The user then selects the voiceover from a selection of pre-recorded voices or records his own narration. The AI uses the voiceover to create animations for the chosen template, creating the video that appears to be narrated by the chosen voice.
The AI technology employed by Synthesia can be used to analyze the user's voice, tone, and inflection and it uses this information to draw video video in a manner that is in line with what the user's voice is saying. For example, if a voice of the user becomes animated in a specific part of the video it uses that information in order to create movement to the video during that part of the video. This results in an video that appears as if it was made by a professional production team, despite the fact that it was created by the power of AI in a video generator.
Benefits of Video AI Generators Like Synthesia
There are several benefits to using video AI generators such as Synthesia. They include:
Cost Savings: The production of video can be costly, particularly when businesses are looking to produce high-quality videos that are designed to entice viewers. The hiring of a production team as well as leasing equipment can cost thousands of dollars as well as the procedure of creating a video can take weeks. By using an automated video AI-powered generator, such as Synthesia it is possible for businesses to create professional-quality videos in just a couple of minutes, and without the requirement for costly equipment or production staff.
Time Savings: Alongside cost savings, video AI generators like Synthesia can also help businesses save an enormous amount of time. The process of making an video with traditional methods can take a long time, from preparing and writing scripts to filming and editing. With Synthesia, businesses can create quality video in a matter of minutes, allowing them to concentrate their time and resources on other areas in their businesses.
Customization The primary benefits of the use of Synthesia is the ability to customize video templates. This means that businesses can create videos that are tailored to their brand and audience, without the necessity of a production team. The possibility of modifying videos allows companies to explore various styles and formats which is particularly useful for businesses which are just starting out and trying to figure out their style.
Increased Engagement Increased Engagement tool to engage viewers. Companies that use video AI generators such as Synthesia can create high-quality videos designed to entertain their audience. Through animation and other visual effects, companies can produce videos that are informative and entertaining that can boost the chance that viewers be able to watch the entire video and take actions.
Accessibility: Video AI generators like Synthesia can be used by companies of all sizes. Startups and small businesses that might not have the funds to hire a production team can utilize Synthesia for creating quality videos that are created to engage their audience. This lets smaller companies be competitive with larger corporations and create an image that is professional and can help them to build their brand, and connect with new customers.
In the end, Synthesia is a powerful video AI generator that allows companies to create high-quality video within a matter of minutes. Utilizing artificial intelligence and machine learning technology Synthesia is able to analyze the voice of a user and create videos with realistic appearance that look like they were recorded by the user. The benefits from making use of video AI generators like Synthesia include cost savings, time savings customization, increased engagement, and accessibility.
As the usage of video continues to increase as a medium of communication, having the capability to quickly and efficiently create high-quality videos is increasingly essential for companies of all sizes. With video AI generators such as Synthesia, companies can create high-quality videos that are created to be engaging for their viewers and help them to build their reputation. As technology continues to improve and improve, it is probable that we'll see more efficient video AI generators in the future, which will make even more simple for businesses to create high-quality videos that are specifically designed to appeal to their viewers.

Do you love animals? If so, then you have probably heard of the axolotl before! The axolotl is a freshwater salamander that grows very slowly. They are typically only 2-3 inches long when fully grown.
But if allowed proper space to grow, they can get quite large! Most species reach around 6 feet in length which makes them interesting wildlife creatures to see. Because axolotls are protected by law, most people cannot handle one unless authorized through a zoo or aquarium. This is why prices vary so much for axolots!
Some may be more expensive due to their size or because they are rare.
Where can I get one?
Having your own pet axolotl is definitely not for everyone, but if you are interested in them then there are several different sources to acquire one!
You can visit reptile ranches or wildlife preserves to see axolotls in the wild. This is not always easy since they are endangered so it depends on where you go as to whether this happens. Another option would be to volunteer at a zoo or animal sanctuary to help take care of one of these creatures.
Zoos that have axolotls include The San Diego Zoo, Brookfield Zoo, and Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo. At the San Diego Zoo, visitors can even hold some of their babies!
Animal sanctuaries also have access to axolotls, although they may cost more to adopt due to additional expenses like food and shelter.
Are they easy to keep?
This is one of the most expensive salamanders you can buy! They are not easily bred in captivity, which makes them very expensive. Even though they cost more, this does not mean that they are unnecessary or impractical.
Axolotls are still quite popular and many people enjoy keeping them as pets. If you do decide to get one, make sure it's from a reputable breeder who doesn't overbreed their animals. Make sure your animal is eating and grooming itself and has adequate shelter and habitat where it can live and grow.
There are several axolotl fan clubs across the internet with lots of information for potential owners.
What are the costs?
The axolotl can cost anywhere from $25 to well over $1,000! This depends mostly on how much you want it as well as what size tank you have. If you are buying a smaller aquarium home, then there is less of an excuse for spending more money on your new friend.
The price per individual varies depending on where you purchase yours from and if you are buying a hatchling or adult form. Hatchlings are usually cheaper than adults because they do not need as large of a habitat or space to live in.
Adult animals typically go for higher prices due to them needing larger tanks and more space to roam around in.
Do they live longer than a frog?
A lot of people ask how much does it cost to keep an axolotl as a pet, so let's take a look at that! The price for this depends on a few things such as size, sex, and whether you want a hatchling or adult animal.
The biggest factor is determining how many inches long your axolotl is going to be when it is fully grown. This will determine what sized tank you need and what kind of care the animals needs.
Some species of axolotls can grow up to 2 feet long! So if yours is anywhere close to that length then you should know about them already! Unfortunately most axolotl owners are not given adequate information about their pets after they buy them, which is why we have to tell you more here!
AxoBears only sells adults over 5 pounds because we are very careful about who gets one! We also require a veterinary visit within the first week to make sure everything is fine and health guaranteed.
What do they eat?
Most axolotls are omnivorous, eating both meat and plants as main components of their diet. They can even be described as vegetarian due to their lack of taste for red meat.
Axolotls mostly feed off insects including worms, crickets, grasshoppers, cockroaches, earwigs, and other small invertebrates.
They will also take berries, fruits, vegetables, and sometimes fish or mice if hungry. Due to their nocturnal nature, most individuals only come out at night to hunt for food.
When they are not feeding, axolotls usually either sleep or remain inactive in a quiet area to conserve energy.
Is it true they can eat their own fingers?
The next myth is that axolotls are able to eat their own digits. This has never been observed, nor have there ever been any reports of this happening in captivity. Anaximenes was reported to carry his thumbs in his mouth as a pet, but even he didn't seem to enjoy this much!
If anything, most axolotls will actively avoid eating their own hands- sometimes for days at a time! When they do consume them, it is usually when they are very hungry or something is interfering with food intake (like another animal trying to snack on them).
But why would they need to eat their own hand if they don't like touching other things? It seems odd to us, but then we aren't necessarily the best judges of what makes them uncomfortable.
What do you do with them?
Most people enjoy keeping axolotls as pets! They are very intelligent, curious animals that can be playful at times. Some even keep their pet axolots as part of their aquarium collection. Others show theirs off by breeding them or giving birth to young ones.
There are several different ways to houseaxolotlas. Many breeders recommend using glass terraria because they are waterproof and easy to clean. You may also choose to use plastic tanks if you are more experienced in taking care of freshwater animals.
The most expensive thing about owning anaxolotls is actually feeding them. The average cost per meal for axolotls is two dollars. Because they eat mollusks such as cramp shells and mussels, these foods can be expensive. Luckily, you can purchase dried food pellets which make it much easier to give your animal its needed nutrition.
Do they come with a kit?
Even though they may seem expensive, most people have a misconception about how much these animals cost. Most of the time, it is because they do not know what to include in the purchase!
Axolotls usually only require some aquarium soil as a home base.

Consequences of the Chernobyl accident: 20 years later
«Radiation and Risk», 2006, vol. 15, no. 3-4, pp.97-119
Balonov M.I.
International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, Austria.
The Chernobyl Forum (September, 2005) concluded that in 20 years after the Chernobyl accident along with reduction of radiation levels and accumulation of humanitarian consequences severe social and economic depression of the affected regions and associated serious psychological problems became the most significant problems. The majority of the 600000 emergency and recovery operation workers and five million residents of the contaminated areas in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine received relatively minor radiation doses which are comparable with the natural levels. An exception is a cohort of several hundred emergency and recovery operation workers who received high radiation doses, of whom 28 died in 1986 due to acute radiation sickness and it consequences. Except dramatic increase in thyroid cancer morbidity in those exposed to radioiodine in their childhood and some increase in leukaemia and solid cancer morbidity among emergency and recovery operation workers with high radiation dose no evident growth of radiation-associated cancer diseases and leukaemia was detected in other groups of population. Radiation levels in the environment have reduced by a factor of several hundred since 1986, this ensures that the majority of the previously contaminated land in now safe for life and economic activities. Despite unprecedented scale and character of the Chernobyl accident its consequences for health and life of the affected population are significantly less compared with A-bombing in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Findings of research of consequences of the Chernobyl accident made invaluable contribution to the development of nuclear technology and safety, radioecology, radiation medicine, radiological protection and social sciences. The Chernobyl accident initiated development of the global nuclear safety and radiation protection regime.

The seemingly never-ending downward spiral that is the career of Freddy Adu just got a little bit worse. Adu announced that he would be leaving his current team, KuPS of the Finnish first division this summer to, "...pursue other opportunities". Having played only a handful of games for KuPS before being relegated to the reserve squad KuFu-98 that plays in the Finnish fourth division, I don't know how many opportunities are left to pursue. Perhaps he can go back to hosting/promoting night clubs, but any future in professional soccer seems to be less likely with every passing day.
As of today, Adu has now played for eleven clubs throughout his career (twelve if you count the loan stint with KuFu-98), a number matched by fellow Philadelphia Union fan-favorite Rais M'Bolhi. The amount of teams each player has joined is matched only by the intense dislike that Union fans have for them. Perhaps the two could get together some day and open up an over-priced and consistently disappointing nightclub that switches towns every few months.


text: More specifically they have clearly been shown that the addition of scGOS/lcFOS ameliorates the microbial composition reducing the presence of clinically relevant pathogens (57). be discussed with specific emphasis on immune development and the susceptibility to neonatal and childhood infections. attachment to cultured epithelial cells (40). Likewise, it has been shown that LNT, or its fucosylated derivative LNFPI, both can inhibit the growth of Group B Streptococci (41). Moreover, the presence of 3-FL within the complex mixture of HMOS structures has been inversely correlated with Group-B Streptococci abundancy in infants (42). In addition, (1-2)-fucosylated HMOS like 2-FL, or LNDFH I may reduce of early life diarrhea incidence and severity, via their ability to block specific diarrhea inducing pathogens (43). Prebiotic effect of HMOS Development of selective bacterial strains is subjected to their capacity to metabolize HMOS (44). The role of microbial modulation i.e., the prebiotic capacity of specific HMOS structures have in addition been subject of extensive studies. More specifically, secretor positivity of mothers, hence expressing FUT2 and therefore able to produce (1-2)-glycosidic-fucosylated HMOS, have been shown to affect the gut bifidobacterial communities of breastfed infants (45). Bifidobacteria and Bacteroides species are known to metabolize HMOS with high efficiency in contrast to other bacterial species such as (44). This appears strain specific and selective for specific HMOS structure (44, 46, 47). For example, exhibited strong growth stimulation while expansion of and were suppressed within cultures using specific HMOS (like 2-FL, 3-FL, and LDFT), whereas Enterobacteria could not grow on 2-FL or 6-SL cultures (48). In addition, utilization of fucosylated type human milk oligosaccharides by isolated human gut microbes was shown (49). These data indicate selective and specific prebiotic capacities of different functional HMOS structures, showing growth of commensal bacteria such as at the expense of pathogens, as shown in Figure ?Figure3.3. Hence beyond directly blocking viral and bacterial entrance to the host also these prebiotic capacities of HMOS may help to reduce the susceptibility to infection of the host. Mucosal barrier maturation by HMOS HMOS interact with glycans present in the surface of intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) or with dendritic cells (DC) which protrude to the gut lumen from lamina propria. This results in direct support of epithelial barrier maturation or an indirect effect on barrier integrity via modulation of the microbiota and consequent short chain fatty acid (SCFA) production (50). In this regard, beyond blocking pathogen invasion, HMOS may also promote mucosal barrier maturation by increasing the differentiation of IECs. Indeed, synthetic HMOS or HMOS isolated from human milk were shown to promote differentiation and reduce proliferation of various IEC cultures GW 501516 (HT-29 and Caco-2). Similarly, expression of mucosal maturation factors was promoted in fetal intestine cultures after exposure to HMOS isolated from colostrum. These findings suggest that some specific HMOS may be able to promote gut maturation and contribute to epithelial barrier integrity in the gastrointestinal tract of neonates (18, 50, 51). Modulation of pathogen recognition by HMOS Receptors involved in the Rabbit Polyclonal to GPR150 recognition of microbes such as toll-like receptors (TLR) are suggested to be modulated by HMOS. Subsequently the response of the host cell to pathogens is altered (17, 37). studies to elucidate the receptors involved in HMOS effects have been performed mostly in cells isolated from GW 501516 adult individuals which might not translate directly to the neonatal situation. Specific HMOS structures have been postulated to modulate bacterial and viral signaling on epithelial cells and/or DC (19). For instance, 2-FL modulates CD14 expression in human enterocytes, thereby attenuating LPS-induced inflammation (17). On the contrary, HMOS such as sialyllactoses, human galactosyllactoses and/or LNFP III may be ligands for toll like receptors (TLR). For example, TLR-3 signaling seems specifically inhibited by human milk 3-galactosylactose (52). Moreover, it has been shown that the addition of human milk as well as HMOS interacts directly with DCs, through DC-SIGN, Siglecs and related glycan-binding proteins which are also essential in immune regulation (53C55). DCs are key in directing the adaptive immune response toward effective immunity identification and clearance pathogens. Alpha-fucosylated HMOS (2-FL and 3-FL) showed GW 501516 specific binding to DC-SIGN (54). Effects of scGOS/lcFOS were suggested to be mediated by TLR-4 (56). Similarly, TLR-4 as well as TLR-3 have also been related to modulate the effects of HMOS. 3-FL, 2-FL were able to modulate TLR-3 and elicit an anti-inflammatory effect, while exposure to 2-FL inhibited inflammation through TLR-4 (52). More specifically it has clearly been shown that the addition of scGOS/lcFOS ameliorates the microbial composition reducing the presence of clinically relevant pathogens (57). Selectins were also suggested as possible receptors for binding of HMOS due to their ability to block P-selectin (58). Several receptors are hypothesized to be.

Background and Theory Behind the Compensation, Accessions, and Personnel Management (CAPM) Model

Pay and other forms of compensation for military service are important factors in a person's decision to join the military or to reenlist after an enlistment period is completed. Since the introduction of the All Volunteer Force in 1973, it has been essential for policymakers to understand how changes in pay, retirement compensation, selective reenlistment, and other compensation policies affect the military's ability to retain qualified personnel.
RAND's Project AIR FORCE and its National Defense Research Institute developed a personal computer software tool called the Compensation, Accessions, and Personnel Management (CAPM) system. The system enables decisionmakers to quickly study the effects of policy changes on retention rates and future inventories of military personnel. CAPM has the following main features:
CAPM uses policy information to calculate reenlistment rates and future force structure. The system uses a mathematical model to represent how individual personnel weigh the financial benefits of staying in the military against the benefits of leaving. Based on the user's policy choices, CAPM estimates reenlistment rates and projects the size of the force over a given time period. Decisionmakers can view these results by demographic category (such as sex, race, and mental aptitude), pay grade, and year of service.
CAPM's standardized metrics and analytical tools should make decisionmaking faster and easier and should foster greater coordination among authorities throughout the personnel policy community.

As any kind of Michigander can easily inform you, the Glove State has plenty to create home regarding. From its richpast as a forerunner in fine art, market, and also innovation (our company' re taking a look at you, Motown, Ford as well as Edison) to the unlimited elegance as well as experience of its own lakeshores as well as Upper Peninsula, Michigan has a lot to use.
Nevertheless, regardless of the attractive picture that is presented withthe Pure Michigan ad campaign, in between changes in task markets and population shifts all over the condition, there are a lot of Michigan houses having a hard time to make ends satisfy.
As of 2016, the mean home profit in Michigan was $50,803 –- about 8% lower than the national median revenue of $55,322. In a similar way, Michigan' s scarcity price of 15.0% at that very same opportunity was likewise higher than the national standard of 12.7%.
For lots of households who are actually living coming from paycheck to income, playing at the subprime car loan market for easy cashmay think that the only option to manage.
Payday Loans in Michigan
Payday loans –- additionally contacted cashloan, check advances, or " put off presentment solution deal "- deliver a means for an individual that' s quick on money but needs amount of money right now to obtain money promptly for highcharges. Payday loans are usually for relatively small amounts, and also they must be actually paid back quickly. In Michigan, cashadvance have to be under $600, and they must be actually repaid within 31 times. Any person along withgovernment-issued " personal identification, an examining profile, and verification of anticipated income coming from a job or regulatory advantages" " may commonly access a pay day financial institution either link here a store front and also get an urgent funding of up to $600.
While this may feel like an excellent idea –- that doesn' t operate short on money occasionally? –- the service fees that payday financial institutions may charge are actually commonly way more than folks who have a tendency to find themselves looking for these services may afford. As the Michigan Attorney General' s workplace notes: " Incredibly higher service fees, mixed witha brief monthly payment time period, might result in clients to come under a payday advance loan financial debt trap. Instead of short-term financial comfort, the customer experiences reoccurring liability."
From this, it is actually crystal clear that payday finance is actually frequently merely definitely in the most effective passion of the lending institution –- certainly not in the most ideal passion of the person obtaining the car loan.
Consider this. There are actually 650 payday finance companies in Michigan. As a point of comparison, there are almost twenty% even more cashadvance lenders than McDonald' s bistros (545 in overall) throughout the state. This ratio is muchless than neighboring conditions Ohio (616 McDonald' s:1,374 payday creditors) as well as Wisconsin( 285 McDonald ' s:439 lenders ), but it greatly goes beyond the proportion in Indiana (326 McDonald' s:117 pay day lenders).
On standard, eachof these payday creditors problems 3,541 loans yearly, witha predicted average loan quantity of $350. This leaves behind Michiganders paying an estimated $108,701,335 just in cashadvance charges every year.
Michigan limits the costs that a cashadvance finance company may charge based on the amount of money a customer obtains in cashadvance. Payday creditors may bill 15% of the total funding for the 1st $one hundred, 14% for the second $one hundred, thirteen% for the 3rd $one hundred, 12% for the 4th$100, and also 11% for the fifthas well as sixth$one hundred. Right here' s a failure of what that appears like:
While a 15% service fee may certainly not seem like a lot, it adds up –- specifically for the folks who get frequent loans. What might sound like a reduced percent for a temporary loan generally equates into an enormous annual percentage rate (APR) –- or percent that you would certainly repay if that price were applied over and over once again over the same time period for a year.
Consider this: for a $100 funding that you pay back in 14 days, a payday creditor can easily bill you 15%, or even $15. If you got that very same car loan along withthose very same costs every 14 days for a year, you'd be actually settling 391% of the funding back to the finance company throughout that year. Consider that by the end of that year, you would certainly not have actually certainly not gained any type of loan from these purchases. Even thoughyou settled the loan back promptly eachtime you take it out, you'd still be actually out 391% of that $100 you always keep borrowing –- or $391 –- when it' s all stated and also done.
Michigan' s APR restrictions are prepared by its federal government, but several of its border conditions possess hugely various policies governing their payday lenders –- as well as hence, too, governing their financing costs.
The Record of Pay Day Loans in Michigan
Michigan' s 2005 Deferred Presentment Service Purchase Act (Act 244 of 2005) moderates all payday lending in the state. To name a few needs, this Action mandates that customers authorize a written agreement that consists of itemized expenses, their comparable APRs, and also settlement desires and timetables. This Process additionally needs that a specific itemized list of customer rights show up on every payday loan agreement, as well as it defines the language a loan provider need to utilize in urging a consumer of how to file a criticism.
There has been actually extremely little movement in Michigan laws that oversee pay day loaning, other than that in 2017, Us senate Bills were actually introduced to increase payday loan amounts to $2,500 (up coming from $600) as well as increase loan lengths to a maximum of 48 months (up from 31 days) at APRs of as highas 180%. As of June 6, 2017, all 3 costs had been referred to the Senate Board on Banking and Financial Institutions, but nothing had been offered the floor for a vote. It is actually uncertain what the future of those expenses are going to hold.
Among other points, the Dodd-Frank Action licensed the Consumer Financial Defense Bureau, whichis actually charged withmanaging as well as providing tools that help buyers prosper. There have been actually no policy changes in Michigan considering that Dodd-Frank' s 2010 flow, whichmay show that Michigan' s lending-related plans currently was incorrect on the side of buyer protection.
Michigan CashAdvance
Michigan seems to be to become a moderately regulated state when it pertains to predative loaning practices. Althoughhigh-interest payday advance loan are allowable, they go throughnumerous regulations and regulations in order to guard daily people coming from falling into harmful debt traps. Althoughyou might be actually lured to secure a payday advance while struggling to make ends fulfill, remember that these loans can easily get incredibly pricey extremely fast.
- Maximum Financing Volume:$ 600 every payday financial institution. Buyers can merely possess pair of remaining payday advance loan immediately.
- Loan Condition: Approximately 31 times
- Rollovers Permitted?: No
- Fees as well as Financing Charges: Approximately 15% on the 1st $100, 14% on the 2nd $one hundred, thirteen% on the third $one hundred, 12% on the 4th$100, and also 11% on the 5thand 6th$100.
- Finance Charge on a 14-Day, $one hundred Loan:$ 15 optimum
- APR on a 14-Day, $one hundred Funding:391%
- Maximum Variety Of Outstanding Loans at a Time:2
- Repayment Plan: Pay day creditors are required to feature in the composed financing deal authorized througha client: " If you are unable to pay your put off presentment solution transaction and also have actually entered into eight put off presentment company transactions withany type of licensee in any sort of 12-monthtime frame, condition rule allows you to ask for a payment of that purchase in installations."
- Collection Charges: Returned examination of as muchas $25
Title Loans in Michigan
In some conditions, a consumer that is having economic difficulty might opt for to take out one more form of high-risk, short-term, high-interest funding. Headline loans call for consumers to hand over the title to their automobiles as security for urgent accessibility to cash. Like payday advance, headline loans typically possess APRs in the three-way fingers and also require complete payback within a month; they additionally have a tendency to raise debtors' ' financial obligation down the road, and, since they involve the risk of providing your automobile –- and also the right to retrieve it –- as collateral, lots of folks lose their vehicles when they can easily' t repay headline loans.
Thankfully, vehicle label loans are essentially prohibited online loans in michigan usury rule prohibits automotive headline loan providers coming from taking bodily possession of someone else' s car or even vehicle title, and also they restrict auto title loan providers to asking for an APR of 7%.
However, some Michiganders might be tempted to project in to surrounding conditions like Ohio, where label lenders have actually found way outs to supply what are properly title loans under other borrowing labels that are legal, as well as Wisconsin, where title loans are lawful as well as can be provided for fifty% the worthof somebody' s automobile up to$ 25,000.
While it might seem promising to get a $3,000 financing in Wisconsin for providing the title for (and the right to repossess) your $6,000 auto as security, customers that seek this training program put on their own at major threat because there are actually no optimum month-to-monthexpenses or even interest rates controlled by the condition. That' s straight- your name loan provider can charge you way more than you could ever reasonably be anticipated to pay back over the course of a monthbefore mauling you into a series of carry over loans that ultimately lead to you shedding your vehicle and owing additional money than you ever before anticipated from the beginning.
