Nanoparticle-Based Gene Therapy Preserves Vision in Lab Study for Stargardt Disease
Foundation-funded researcher from the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences
Center, used a nanoparticle-based gene therapy to provide long-term
preservation of vision in mice with Stargardt disease. A study recently
published online in the Journal of Clinical
Investigation shows that the innovative treatment approach has the
potential to be an advantageous alternative for delivering therapeutic genes to
the retina for a variety of conditions.
Current gene therapies in early clinical trials for retinal disease — including Oxford BioMedica's StarGen™ treatment for Stargardt disease — employ gene delivery technologies based on human-engineered viruses, including adeno-associated viruses and lentiviruses. While those viral systems are performing well thus far, they do have limitations. Foremost, they do not have the capacity for delivering very large corrective genes, including those that would be used to treat Usher syndrome type 2A (USH2A), Leber congenital amaurosis caused by defects in the gene CEP290 and certain forms of retinitis pigmentosa (RP).
In addition to the Stargardt disease treatment, the Foundation is funding Dr. Naash to develop nanoparticle-based gene therapies for USH2A and forms of autosomal dominant RP and cone-rod dystrophy caused by defects in the gene PRPH2 (also known as RDS).
Some experts believe that nanoparticles — tiny manmade particles that are 1/10,000,000th of an inch or smaller — may be a highly safe medium for delivering genes to the retina, because the body is unlikely to have an immune reaction to them. However, the safety profile for viral gene delivery has been excellent in early clinical trials for retinal diseases.
"The bottom line is that it is best that we pursue multiple options for gene delivery, especially at this early stage of development," says Dr. Stephen Rose, chief research officer, Foundation Fighting Blindness. "We don't want to put all of our eggs in one basket. It may turn out that viral delivery is better for some conditions and nanoparticles are better for others."

Typical UA even our underwear overachieves. Youll Never Wear Regular Underwear Again

"Me: what do you want to do today?
Mateo: a craft"
Well, there ya have it. The kids loves to craft. My work here is done. As adorable as that is, I hadn't planned on crafting yesterday so I had no fancy craft prepared. Therefore we went with a paint based sensory experience instead… and enjoyed an hour of toddler busyness.
This crafting adventure is a prime example of the joy being in the journey, not the result. Painting with trucks will not yield you an adorable craft to hang on your fridge. It will yield a giant painty mess… and that's the point. It's truly just an activity for your little one.
The premise simply could not be easier. Cover a baking tin with paper. Create four lines of paint down the middle and let your little one drive their trucks through the paint to watch the tracks the wheels create. Please note that Mateo required a second piece of paper because he decided he wanted to make handprints as well. Why not?
Mateo had a blast. This occupied him for almost an hour and he was fascinated by watching the wheels make their tracks, seeing what happened when the colors blended together, inspecting the wheels for paint and racing his trucks from one end of the cookie sheet to the other. Then, he moved right along to digging his hands in the paint, making handprints and discovering the cool marks left behind when he used his fingernails to scrape paint from one side to the other. A clean craft, this is not. The end result was a paint covered kid, a giant mess of brownish paint on his paper and an extremely pleased two year old.
If you're looking for a fun and easy sensory paint experience for your little one, this gets two messy thumbs up from me.
- A cookie sheet to cover in paper to confine the truck driving fun
- 3-4 diffeeent color paints
- 3-4 plastic trucks
- Cover a baking sheet with paper
- Squeeze a line of each of your colors down the middle of the paper and set out 3 trucks.
- Show your little one what happens when you drive a truck through the paint.
- Sit back and watch the fun ensue.

2018 Rolls Royce Phantom Rumors, News, Specs
The brand new prototype of 2018 Rolls Royce Phantom has been coming at glance. The manufacturer has recently tested a car to hook up attentions to changes and upgrades for its Phantom generation. Rumors indicate that the car is plotted to be the successor of the first 2004 model version. Apart from the limit of information, for car buffs who do curious to the final look of this vehicle, just keep an eye on the latest news updates for the continued car advancements.
2018 Rolls Royce Phantom Changes
Several spy shots of a new platform model have divulged that the Phantom version will be larger than its predecessors with 20 feet in length. The lighter weight of aluminum material with only 5,600 pounds has been reckoned a firm selection for the current car as it is envisaged capable in enhancing its dynamicity. The new 2018 Rolls Royce Phantom is expected to bring the more futuristic styling with rounder dynamic aesthetic. For the contemporary outlook, the car designer has planned to equip two additional air vents to the front part of bumper. Some speculate that the forthcoming car will still maintain its conventional model and come with more captivating and alluring outlook. The inside part of the car, unfortunately, cannot be obviously pictured.
The ongoing competition to provide car with good emission efficiency has demanded the car manufacturer to supplement their vehicles with more endurable power. The upcoming 2018 Rolls Royce Phantom is still expected to configure a hybrid model featured with a large battery. The public expectancy requires this plug-in model to remain using a traditional V-12-powered version as responding to its rivals such as Bentley that also plans to introduce new hybrid cars. The further information about the car engines cannot be satisfyingly revealed.
2018 Rolls Royce Phantom Release Date and Price
As the name suggests, the Phantom vehicle is predicted to show off and ready for sale in around 2018. The premiere of this car is not yet officially published. So far observing, the price tag of 2018 Rolls Royce Phantom has not appraised. No need to worry, just make sure to follow the latest info and updates to figure out the news development.

Has anyone seen the new commercial live during March Madness? If so, I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Anyways, moving on… I was racking my brain, talking to J, trying to think of a topic for this week's blog post. The point in the blog is for you to get some inside information on our shop, gain knowledge of the industry and learn more about us as individuals. Sometimes it's really easy to come up with what to share, this week not so much. I resorted to my trusty friend google and searched "pawn shop news" and this website came up. Pawn Shops Today is a site informing you about all things pawn shops. The part of the site I found the most interesting was "The Customer." People have notoriously always had a negative idea of the type of people that do business in a pawn shop, I've been trying to end this stereotype with the blog but I think this site does an excellent job explaining the average customer of this industry. There is also a ton of other general information and knowledge to gain, I've learned a lot just by browsing the site in one afternoon. I think it would be a great resource for anyone that still hasn't quite grasped the concept of what we do. In fact, I think this is 100% more factual than any of the very entertaining reality shows you might have seen.
Keep in mind each state has its own individual laws and regulations. Also, the team at Loan USA would be happy to answer any questions you may have about our unique business.

You always tell it the same: fresh off the flight
to Amsterdam you got no further than
some sunlit canal and a Moroccan
who measured hash in bites he spat into his palm.
Grand Tour of Europe in the 80's – three months
stoned and dirty, water bright off the canal.
Then in August, frightened of your folks
you bought a Frommer's guide to crib from on the plane.
Back home you smiled lies, came to remember
train timetables, statues, Matterhorn and Zee.
The Moroccan gone, the bike bells, filthy jeans.
But we know: all these years we've spent that summer:
glowing wasted hours of bit hash in our palms,
our lost young selves draped sun-blind on the stones.

Former Disney CEO Michael Eisner, and current owner of Topps, picked up the rights to to adapt the bubblegum comic strip Bazooka Joe into a feature film. Writing the movie will be Mark Hammer, not to be confused with Mike Hammer, who apparently graduated from college this past week.
"Bazooka Joe" has been a comic strip used as an advertising device for the gum since the 1950s. Joe, who wears an eye patch for reasons never explained, has child-friendly misadventures, sometime joined by a host of friends with the names Pesty, Mort (always with a turtleneck sweater pulled up over his mouth), Toughie, Hungry Herman, love interest Jane and a dog named Walkie Talkie.
No word on release date, but expect this to a very different comic book movie.

iOS 9 Features – What you need to know
After gathering the usual inevitable buzz, the latest operating system from Apple, iOS 9, was released on the 16th of September. Some are now calling it the best of Apple's latest operating systems, and for good reason.
Below are a list of the most significant new features and updates we're seeing in iOS 9.
Built-In Apps
The most promising features of iOS 9 all come down to the built in apps. Through enhancing pre-existing default apps and adding a completely new one to boot, it's clear where Apple's priorities were in the making of the new operating system. The Notes app, once a simple word processor similar to Microsoft's Notepad, has been revamped, bringing it closer than ever to replacing Office programs everywhere. Users are now able to create sketches as well as import images, audio, documents and locations into their notes.
The Maps app has received its fair share of updates as well. iOS users now have access to public transit integration in several major cities across the globe including Toronto, Berlin and Paris, making trip planning easier (hopefully in the coming months we'll see the list of compatible cities grow).
The News app – Apple's new default app – brings iOS users a collection of news from major sources such as ESPN and Wired on a daily basis. Articles are published specifically with the mobile user in mind, keeping content and layouts optimised for mobile touchscreen viewing and navigating. News is currently only available in the States on iOS 9 but is available to the UK in the iOS 9.1 update.
Smarter Siri
Perhaps the most surprising upgrade we're seeing is in Siri's intelligence. Once the butt of every smartphone-related joke, Siri has been hitting the books and is smarter than ever. Not only are her suggestions much more relevant, users now have the choice of receiving unsolicited suggestions as Siri sees fit, based on a devices activity at that time.
More Efficient
A common complaint made by iOS users is that each update seems to bog down devices and drain the battery. Apple responded to this by giving iOS 9 users quicker device speeds and longer battery life. iPhone users specifically have the option of enabling a "Low Power Mode" on their device, decreasing its energy use when no resource-heavy programs are needed, further increasing battery life.
Multitasking has always been one of Apple's faults when it comes to their mobile devices. Many have suggested that one can't multitask at all, due to devices' nasty tendency to refresh an app upon being minimised. Now however, users of specific devices are able to run an app covering the better portion of the screen while simultaneously checking up on another app in a smaller portion of the screen. i.e. a popup window.
Formerly known as the Passport app, Wallet allows users to pay electronically in-store using loyalty cards as well gift cards, now with support for Discover's debit and credit card. Those in the UK also have the Apple Pay feature, a payment program compatible with ExpressPay (American Express), PayWave (Visa) and PayPass (Mastercard) terminals, allowing for quick, easy, on-the-go payments.
Apple seems to have taken a different (and much needed) approach in developing iOS 9. Responding to customer criticism seemingly their ultimate goal this time around, iOS 9 is everything good about every other iOS minus the bad. We'd wager this is Apple's best work yet.
What do you think about the new iOS9? The best ever? Or overhyped?

It's a schedule III medication.
It has tighter controls on it than, say, Ambien (cIV), but you can still have it called in to a pharmacy by your doctor.
It contains a barbiturate, which is most likely the main reason it's controlled like it is.

Why Make a PREP Passport?
By bringing your academic history, interests and personality into one place, the PREP Passport acts as an introduction, whether you are looking for a year abroad or a permanent transfer to a boarding school in Canada, the United States and England. Based on your PREP Passport, PREP Boarding will recommend schools for you to apply to and submit your PREP Passport to the schools you select on your behalf.
What is the PREP Passport?
The PREP Passport is a private online profile you create. You and your parents or guardians answer a series of questions about your education, your talents and your family background. Once you decide which schools to apply to, your current school can upload the supporting documents (report cards, letters of references, etc.) required and your PREP Passport will be sent to your chosen schools.
How Do I Get Started?
Creating your PREP Passport is free and simple to do. All you need are two things:
- A parent or guardian to answer the parent section
- An electronic copy of your official passport or a birth certificate
Once you have answered all the questions, you review your answers before submitting your final PREP Passport.

It has been my world away from everything just to take the time and someplace other than here, it has taken me to a new world full of excitement and wonder fulled with joy and sorrow for others that can be as young life's are touched in so many way that we have forgotten about, this has been a great feeling to live the life of the kids, in a way only in a story.

By H. P. Oliver
It seems fellow wordsmith and Twitter friend E. M. Wynter (@WynterEm) has thrown down the "Blog Hop" gauntlet once again, this time including some exigent questions for the new year. With the clear understanding that my answers may not have a darn thing whatsoever to do with the questions, I have accepted Ms Wynter's challenge. So, in the words of the Great One, "And awaaaay we go!"
Question #1: If you could achieve anything with your writing in 2014, what would it be?
To make the New York Times Best Seller List with at least three books!
Seriously, though, my writing goal for the new year is the same as it has been since I entered the craft some thirty years ago. Simply put, that goal is to become a better writer.
No, that's not a cop-out answer. If I've learned one thing in my writing career, it is that a writer can never stop learning. Or, as Ernest Hemingway so aptly put it, "We are all apprentices in a craft where no one ever becomes a master." Few truer words have ever been said of our craft.
As one aspect of this learning process, I am always striving to create clearer, more colorful word pictures, whether they be of a novel's setting, action, or a character's feelings. Done right, those word pictures draw readers into our yarns, making them feel a part of the story. That is the essence of my job as a storyteller.
Along the same lines, a fan described me in a recent review as a "reader's writer." While I'm not entirely sure what all that entails, I can think of no greater achievement than becoming the best reader's writer I can be.
Question #2: What are the top three demons you must slay to achieve your goals in 2014?
One concern that's always on my mind is falling prey to the Rut Demon. The Rut Demon and his old pal, the evil Deadline Demon, conspire to make us fall back on old tried and true techniques rather than taking the time to create new, fresh approaches to telling our stories.
A writer attracts fans who enjoy her/his style, but those fans will quickly grow tired of reading essentially the same story with a different title every time they pick up one of our books. I try to fight the Rut Demon by challenging readers with unique, irony-filled plots and creating believable characters who are as unique as the living people we find most interesting in our own lives. Take that, Rut Demon!
Question #3: Name three things that inspire you to write.
Places, history and people. Oh, you want an explanation, too?
An example of a place that inspired one of my mysteries in history is the Avalon Casino on Santa Catalina Island. More specifically, an acoustic anomaly in the Casino's beautiful deco-moderne' ballroom gave me the idea for And The Angels Sing. The anomaly is a small thing, really, but once I knew about it and went to the Casino to experience the phenomenon for myself, I knew I had a key ingredient to a thrilling story.
Historic events have inspired several of my mysteries, including my current project, Winging IT. In this instance, the historic event that inspired the story was the filming of the epic silent film, Wings. Directed by the brilliant and irreverent "Wild Bill" Wellman and staring the controversial It Girl, Clara Bow, the making of Wings became an epic event in itself . . . and the perfect setting for a diabolical murder.
Many of my stories have been inspired in one way or another by well-known people in history, but my recently completed mystery, Goodnight, San Francisco (to be released February, 2014) is particularly unique in this regard. Early in my writing career I had the good fortune to work with a nationally renowned radio newscaster. Goodnight is not his story, but is based on some of the experiences he shared with me--experiences I found fascinating and inspiring. The result is a gripping, human drama set in the San Francisco of 1937.
Question #4: What advice do you have for a new writer considering writing fiction?
I shy away from giving "advice" to writers for the simple reason that we each must find our own unique path through the writing maze. In other words, what worked for me probably won't be of much help to anyone else.
I am willing, however, to offer a few points I learned along the way that have proven to be strong building blocks for anyone interested in pursuing a career in our craft:
LEARN THE CRAFT - As I said earlier, learning is a career-long process, but understanding that there is always much more to be learned is one of the first steps toward becoming an accomplished wordsmith.
HONE YOUR SKILLS - When I look back on my earliest writing efforts, I shake my head in amazement at how unrefined my skills were, especially since I thought I was writing great stuff at the time. Many successful writers tell that same tale of discovery. Time and experience are the sharpening stones that will give your skills the cutting edge you need to carve out memorable stories.
BE PATIENT! - Not many writers create a bestseller with their first manuscript. By way of example, my first major success--a screenplay that received national acclaim--didn't happen until I'd been working in the craft for about eight years. Good things take time!
In conclusion, I offer a suggestion made by a wordsmith who is far more qualified than I to offer sage writing advice. In addition to the quote I included in my answer to the first question, Ernest Hemingway also said, "It's none of their business that you have to learn to write. Let them think you were born that way."

Cert grabbers - used to be one myself.
Now it's about doing certs that you use every day. Otherwise its a waste of;

Cert grabbers - used to be one myself.
Now it's about doing certs that you use every day. Otherwise its a waste of;

30+ certs deep I am only now maintaining the ones I use :)
Bettsy agreed......
Yes, I am glad I've got certs from Microsoft, VMware, Citrix, Cisco, Google etc as it helps me as a consulting architect.
Nothing is more impressive to a client if you are discussing Office 365, they happen to mention an issue with Citrix and you can offer on the fly advice about it based on a cert/lab experience you did 3 years ago ;)
But going forward I like playing golf and scuba diving far too much to be a cert grabber anymore.
GCIA for sure, maybe CEH.
I have quite a bunch of certifications on my own and some of them are not put to best use due to the lack in demand or not knowing the real demand. Recently I have stumbled upon a startup that might help you too get notice on the certifications acquired and why not, see what others have interest in getting certified as. Keep in mind it is only at the beginning, but might be of value in few years and might be glad to be with me among early adopters : https://www.xpertr.com/register/
My goal is to get an HTML 5 certificate and finish my course in BootStrap.
network +
you guys doing this in the next 3 days?
For this 2017 I want to pass:
Comptia security
And if I have time get MCSA or VCP6-DCV. Which one of this 2 is better for security orientation?
I took VCP6-DCV to maintain my older VCP certs. 2 weeks ago, I took my SSCP. I am working on my CISSP for late Q2. In May, I will be at VeeamON for VMCE training and probably wrote the test onsite. Q3 and Q4 will be for MCSA/MCSE on Server 2016
I would like to finish my WGU bachelor's degree within my next term(starts next month) and I need to knock out the following Cisco certs to accomplish that:
I am unsure of the difficulty of these exams but I'm going to try and squeeze them in before the year ends if I pass my Cisco exams in time:
LOL, it would be fun to necropost here on if we accomplished what we wanted. I honestly reached exactly zero of my goals... Too much stuff was going on last year...
Hopefully I'll do better this year with following through with my goals. I'm about to revive my RHCE thread from last year.
I did pass CISA in late 2015, got GCIH in 2016 and picked up hands on experience with ESXi 6, Juniper and a couple of security appliances. So far I have obtained ECSA and CCSP in Q1. CCSK is no longer a priority; I see job postings asking for CCSP but not CCSK. I intend to focus on pen test certs this year going for eLearnSecurity, CREST before diving into OSCP late this year. Hey, it seems that CompTia may even come out with a pen test cert. :roll:
Huawei HCNP
Cisco CCDA
Cisco CCDP
then i`m moving towards my Msc in network security
Hopefully in the future depending on how things goes ill either pursue Juniper or Cisco for SP stuff (id rather go Cisco SP)

- Experience the public transportation, including a double decker bus and the Underground. Children especially love riding on a double decker while viewing the sites outside. Whether it is daylight or nighttime, it is so much fun to climb those narrow steps to the top deck and see the sights of London. The bus routes are plenty and you're sure to find a bus route that will take you to most of the major attractions. Be sure to get an Oyster card to hop on and off the public transportation system in London. This includes the double decker and Underground (subway) system in London. You purchse the Oyster card and load it up with British pounds and can more conveniently pay for your fare and get a discount. Children under 11 are free - don't forget that!
- If you have 2 months before your visit, write to the Ceremony of Keys office to request tickets to see this fascinating ceremony that's been conducted for over 700 years. The tower guards lock up the crown jewels while explaining the history of the Tower of London, where such notable and infamous people including two of King Henry the VIIIs wives were beheaded. NOTE: during certain high peak times, tickets are limited to groups of 6 of less. Also, be sure to include a self-addressed envelop with UK stamps which can be purchased over the counter from most US Post Offices.
- Harrods - this is purportedly one of the most famous department stores in the world. We went on December 28th, which was just one day into their busiest and biggest sale during the year. It was jammed packed with people who just had to spend their pounds! If you know you will spend a good deal here, be sure to join their free Rewards Club. For every 500 points you will receive £5 to spend however you like.
- The British Museum - This is one of the most immense museums in the world. Comparable to the Lourve in terms of important relics, this is a must see museum. There's something for everyone. It is a very family friendly museum (there's no fee, and there is a designated area called the Ford Centre for Young Visitors during weekends and during school holidays where you can find a picnic-style eating area. There are high chairs, water fountains and vending machines for treats. The cafe also serves children-friendly selections. Be sure to check out the mummified cat, and the very interesting section on time pieces.
- Oxford - while you may only be in London for a few days, your children may opt to take a 1 hour train ride to Oxford rather than see some of the touristy sights like Buckingham Palace in favor of this very quaint and interesting town. For Harry Potter fans, many sections of this town, such as Christ Church, were used in the filming of several of the movies. Die-hard fans will recognize those locations very quickly. In the summer, beware of long lines, we were fortunate during the winter months that the lines were not long and we got to languish in the areas to take photos undisturbed by others. Several of the ticket takers told us that the lines are tremendous in the summer. The town itself is very quaint and several sections of the town do not allow cars to travel making it easy to wander the streets of the town. We picked up the train at Paddington Station in London, hopped on a train that took under an hour, and from the Oxford train station it is an easy 10 minute stroll to the center of town. There are many tour companies that will ask you to join, some are worthwhile if your time is limited.
- Tower Bridge - the Tower Bridge is easily walked across by foot. It is often confused as being the London Bridge, but it's proximity to the Tower of London is what gives it its name. You can take a paid tour inside, or just walk across it and see many great London sights. You can purchase tickets on line, or buy them on the spot.
- Enjoy fish and chips in an English Pub. Be adventurous and find a local neighborhood pub where they serve families - and hopefully fish and chips. We found two great pubs; in the city we were directed by a resident to try The Two Brewers on 40 Monmouth Street, which is near the theater district. It was a great place to get out from the cold December air and warm up to a cozy fire and relish in the greasy fish and chips (and mushy peas) they served. Yummy! Great ale too! They do accept credit cards.
- Parks - Regents and Kensington Parks are two of the most famous parks in London. Regents Park covers over 400 acres, and is home to the famous London Zoo (where scenes from the first Harry Potter movie were filmed). Originally the grounds were appropriated by King Henry the VIII as a hunting field. Kensington Park, while smaller than Regents Park, is home to Kensington Palace where Princess Diana lived. The Princess of Wales' Memorial Playground is a nice place for a visit with the children.
- Buckingham Palace - Changing the Guards or Guard Mounting is a must see. From May through June, peak tourist time, the changing takes place daily at 11:00 am, and on alternate days the rest of the year. Check out this site for more details. When the queen is in residence, you will know because there will be four sentries in the front of the building. When she is away there are two. There are other opportunities to see Changing the Guard including the Tower of London, Window Castle, and Horse Guards Arch.
- This tenth must see is a toss up. Our kids might say Madame Tussauds wax museum, or St. Paul's cathedral. What is your top "must see" in London?

Why I voted Conservative
Tuesday, May 12, 2015
((Image Source))
Unless you have been living under a rock, or you have no care in the world about British politics, then you will be aware that last week it was announced that we now have a Conservative government. It was my first year to vote and before turning 18 I had no real interest in politics. I didn't understand the different parties and what they stood for. I noticed on Social Media that this election was getting a lot of coverage and everybody, whether it be a blogger I followed or my mum was talking about the election so I thought I better show a little bit of interest.
In 2010, when we had the last election, I was only 13 so I really had no interest in it. Politics has never been an interest of mine, I just never understood it. I could have taken Politics in sixth form and then maybe I would've understood it more but I didn't.
I turned 18 in October last year and as the election had been nearing I decided I should probably vote, for the sake of my 20-something year old self in a few years. That's what people forget, we may not care much about politics when it's our time to vote but in a few years time when it matters to us we'll regret it!
I felt pressured to vote too, because all over my Social Media were young voters tell us that we should all vote and we should vote for WHOEVER WE WANT.
So for the past few months I have been studying every single party and seeing which ones I liked the most. There were policies I really agreed to and then some I would find myself questioning what they even meant and then ignoring them. Maybe if I understood the policies a little better I would have voted a different party, however, although by only a few points, there was a policy that had won me over. So on the 7th of May I voted Conservative.
Announcing this online is a very brave thing for me to do because to my confusion the majority of people I see on my news feed are attacking anybody that voted Conservative.
Don't get me wrong, I can understand why some people are disappointed but surely Conservative wouldn't have got a majority if they were that bad?
I voted Conservative because I've actually always liked David Cameron. I thought he was the strongest leader out of each and I felt that he could actually deliver on what he had promised. I myself am not going to University unlike a lot of other people I know and so the addition of apprenticeships and minimum wage being raised is pretty ideal. I was also focusing on policies to do with on how much we would be taxed within our income as within the next five years I'm pretty sure I'm going to be in a stable job. I was looking at the education and childcare promises for young children as I have lots of a nephew and nieces that will be starting school within the next five years and childcare is pretty expensive. I picked up that Conservatives promised on focusing on making Mental Health a bigger priority which is a pretty important issue for me too.
There were lots of policies that I liked from Labour, Lib Dem, Greens and yes, even UKIP but Conservative were the ones that I liked the most and that's what did it for me.
The hate needs to stop. It made me feel rubbish seeing everybody on Twitter and Facebook call the Conservative voters horrible names, such as stuck up, idiots, only thinking about themselves and their money. I'm not being funny but i'm 18 with no money so that's starting to say something about some of their voters.
And all this talk about getting rid of the NHS needs to stop...because lets be honest the NHS will never be completely privatised and it is not the government that is ruining it for us - it's the abusers. It's the people that get paracetamol and ibuprofen for free when they can get it cheap from Boots anyway. It's the people like Josie Cunningham that gets cosmetic surgery done on the NHS with no reason behind it.
If you want to make people continue voting in the elections then why attack them for supporting one particular party? As I have learnt these past few months, the young vote is important.
I do hope that Conservatives do Great Britain proud and make us a stronger nation, we will just have to see within the next five years.

Read this tip to make your life smarter, better, faster and wiser. LifeTips is the place to go when you need to know about Ceramic Brushes and other Ceramics topics.
Remember, a brush acts like a fountain pen, allowing colour to flow down the brush body to the tip as you work.
Hold your brush as straight up and down as you can, using light pressure when you are making lines.

The Thief Carbon Process is a patented technology developed by the National Energy Technology Laboratory and licensed to Mobotec USA, a leader in the development and marketing of technologies for multi-pollutant control for utility boilers. The Thief Carbon Process entails extracting active carbon from the flame region of a pulverized coal-fired boiler. The carbon is then injected into the back-pass to serve as a low-cost mercury sorbent.

In partnership with Mobotec, WRI deployed our 250,000 Btu/h Combustion Test Facility (CTF) to test a Thief Carbon device and optimize the extraction conditions. Thief Carbon sorbent was tested on a slip stream in a full-scale power plant, and mercury capture data confirmed its effectiveness. In fact, its mercury emissions reduction was comparable to that of commercially available sorbents.
The Combustion Test Facility and the carbon extraction device designed and built by WRI are available for testing and optimizing technologies and processes for the coal-fired power industry.
