Fulvic Acid Benefits
Fulvic Acid works best in nourishing the digestive system.
What are the benefits of Fulvic Acid?
Fulvic Acid is a constituent of humus. So, it is a naturally present component found in soil, dung, rock sediments, sewage, etc. Fulvic Acid is produced as a result of the progressive breakdown of specific flora and fauna by microbes. They are about yellowish-brown in color. Further, they are packed with nutrients and powerful substances that are great for your health. For instance, they include:
- trace minerals such as zinc, iodine, iron, etc.
- fatty acids
- amino acids
- particles of plant DNA
- and many more.
In reality, the acid doesn’t have a delightful flavor on its own. But, you can mix it with smoothies and other beverages to give it a taste. Also, to enhance the healing powers, you can mix Fulvic Acid into liquids or consume it with medications. Fulvic Acid has a high alkaline pH, roughly 1, and is microscopic. This is why it has excellent soluble nature and gets mixed in the body quickly.
Now, let’s talk about its benefits.
The Key Advantages and Uses of Fulvic Acid
Improves Digestive and Immune System:
Fulvic Acid works best in nourishing the digestive system. The compounds present in the acid multiply the power of good bacteria that create a healthy gut atmosphere. A sound digestive tract is necessary for building immunity, controlling hormone levels, balancing hunger, reducing stress, and far more. Thus, in this way, Fulvic Acid benefits your body.
Inflammatory conditions and immunological responses can arise due to gut permeability. Gut permeability, in simple terms, is the leaky gut. It happens when substances can flee via the stomach lining and reach the blood, which is not right. Fulvic Acid has a record of reducing digestive illnesses and other problems.
Some of them include:
- Small intestine bacterial overgrowth signs
- Inflammatory bowel diseases
- Bacterial illnesses
- Common colds
Fulvic also cures other digestive concerns such as constipation, dysentery, bloating, etc.
Reduces Pain and Boosts Energy Levels:
Fulvic Acid has shown results in building on energy levels in the body. It is because of its essential nutrients, such as electrolytes (minerals that transfer electrical charge when mixed with the body fluids).
Some studies discovered that organic electrolytes present in Fulvic Acid activate and energize almost all biological functions in the body. They allow cells to tolerate mental stress, untreated infections, improper diets, poor sleep, and surgery traumas. This enables Fulvic Acid effective care for severe nerve damage, headaches, arthritis-related joint stiffness, bone and muscle difficulties, etc.
Protects Mental Functions:
Fulvic Acid contains numerous antioxidants, nutritional qualities with the promising ability to defend against brain abnormalities, especially Alzheimer’s disease.
Free radical injury and tau are the factors that lead to the growth of memory problems. Tau is a protein that provides necessary nutrients to the brain, but they get dangerous when they become a toxin. Studies reveal that Fulvic Acid can help shorten the duration and shape of tau fibers, breaking their function and blocking illness growth.
Fulvic Acid appears to have several properties to protect neurons, giving breakthroughs in the growth of organic medicines.
Well, Fulvic Acid benefits animals’ brains too. It increases their memory power.
Lessens tenderness and free radical damage:
Free radicals are highly reactive atoms that can harm cells, resulting in sickness and premature aging. Fulvic Acid has antioxidant properties that cleanse the body. Antioxidants are natural chemicals that assist human bodies in fighting harmful free radicals. It combats many issues such as agricultural pesticides, nuclear waste, etc.
Fulvic Acid also contributes to cellular uptake and lifespan by supplying electrolytes, which serve a lot of activities in the heart, muscles, head, etc.
Recent research suggests that fulvic compounds have medicinal qualities that can aid in preventing some cancers, such as colorectal cancer.
Heals and Safeguards Skin:
Fulvic Acid contains antibacterial characteristics that help kill bad bacteria. They can help shield the skin and cure injuries or discomforts that occur due to fungus or microbes. Examples of such irritations include eczema, insect bites, cuts, and sores.
Assists in Absorbing Nutrients:
The bacteria that Fulvic Acid provides can be consumed in minute quantities and still produce major changes in the proportion of gut bacteria. In addition to offering raw nutrients, findings indicate that Fulvic Acid actively delivers minerals and other vitamins to tissues. Likewise, through this, Fulvic increases nutrient uptake by turning cells more porous and helps relieve the intestinal tract.
Other Fulvic Acid Benefits:
Apart from the advantage mentioned above, Fulvic Acids have some more. They are:
- Decreases cholesterol levels
- Betters muscle strength
- Promote Cell Processes
- Improves Testosterone
- Prevents Cancers, etc.
How does Fulvic Acid Work?
Fulvic Acid is high in several micronutrients that most individuals lack nowadays. Moreover, Fulvic Acid is different from other soil microbes as it can easily flow through cell systems. As a result, it becomes easier to be consumed completely and improves the intake of other micronutrients or medications.
Besides, Fulvic Acid is beneficial to plants and soil fertility, and for a similar purpose, it is useful to human bodies.
Let’s look at some ways of how Fulvic Acid make your health better:
● A vital source of essential electrolytes and antioxidants. This aids in the slowdown of aging and the regulation of inflammation-causing activities.
● Has the potential to disrupt factors that lead to brain illnesses like dementia.
● Supports the slowing of cancer development.
● Triggers the immune system, which aids in the body’s defense against viruses and diseases.
● Appears to help limit bodily reactions that produce allergies.
Fulvic Acid is completely safe to consume. You can say that it is one of the most important concepts to rationalize chemical behavior in the body. Certainly, they help you to perform excellently. However, it is best to opt for an expert consultation before going for it. Thus, get in touch with Siorai and understand how it can benefit your body.

A Mississippi statute prohibits adoptions by same-sex couples. Four lesbian couples and two advocacy groups, including the Campaign for Southern Equality (plaintiffs), sued the director of the Mississippi Department of Human Services, the state governor, and the state attorney general (defendants), challenging the law as unconstitutional under the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses. Two couples sought adoption of one partner’s biological child, while the other two sought adoption of a child through state foster care. The department, governor, and attorney general claimed governmental immunity and that the claimants lacked Article III standing to sue. The claimants requested a preliminary injunction precluding the department from enforcing the law prohibiting same-sex couples from adopting.

The care package, however, didn't seem to sit well with the new mommy. She captioned the snapshot of the gift using the hashtags, "#IHateFakeMediaFriends" and "MayIHumblySuggestYouNotSendGiftsThenTalkSh-t." Well, then. So what could the newscaster have done to leave such a bad taste in Kim's mouth? Well, just yesterday, Katie spoke out publically about her real feelings towards the Kardashiansand she wasn't exactly kind with her words. In an interview with In Touch magazine, Katie let it slip that she isn't a fan of the famous family.

I was responding to a reporters question, and explaining how Im intrigued by the publics fascination with her family, the veteran newswoman said in a statement. I didnt mean to hurt her feelings. The gift is genuine, and Im happy for Kim and Kanye (West), Couric added. RELATED: KOURTNEY KARDASHIAN'S PATERNITY TEST PROVES SCOTT DISICK IS MASON'S DAD According to the pictures uploaded by Kardashian, Couric sent the new mom a cream-colored jacket adorned with light-brown trim and tiny polka dots. But the newswoman clearly didnt take the time to read her own note, which was missing words in places and truncated the babys name, reducing it to just no instead of North.
Kim Kim K Superstar stream Kardashian Wears Baggy Clothes For First Public Appearance With Baby North
Kim Kardashian, whos baby was born just a few months ago and who hasnt been seen or heard from publically since, must really be mad to come out of seclusion to make the proclamation. Kim Kardashians Instagram postings lately have been levelled straight at the news veteran Katie Couric. Kim Kardashian has been out of the public eye since Baby North was born in June, but she posted a picture of the card and the gift she got from Katie Couric. The card congratulated Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for their blessed event. But it didnt fool Kim Kardashian. Kim Kardashian posted this caption under the picture: "#IHateFakeMediaFriends #MayIHumblySuggestYouNotSendGiftsThenTalk(Bleep)." Kim Kardashian is most probably in a huff over Katie Courics recent interview with InTouch magazine, where Katie Couric wondered "I don't understand why are they so famous? I think it's mostly teenage girls that are interested." Couric mused.
The 32-year-old reality star was photographed with beau Kanye West at a medical building in Los Angeles on Wednesday, with baby North in tow (but concealed in a car seat with a blanket over the front). Kim kept her post-baby bod under wraps, wearing moccasin-esque Ugg-type boots (with suede fringe!) and black capri leggings.

CLINTON — Both Prince of Peace varsity teams couldn’t pull out a win for homecoming against the Calamus-Wheatland Warriors on Friday night at Central Catholic Auditorium.
Both teams had played Cal-Wheat earlier this year. For the girls, the first matchup was their closest game of the year. The 61-36 loss on Friday night was a different story.
“We got beat on the boards early in the game and we just had too many turnovers,” Coach Dave Nelson said. “We reverted back to kicking the ball around a little more than we should be and it cost us.”
Nelson said that the biggest issue against the Warriors tonight was the defense. The Irish found themselves down by 20 but the time the fourth quarter began, and it only went up from there.
“Their shooting percentage was high and the translation is that our defense is not where it needs to be,” Nelson said. “We need to get things together. We have a return opportunity against them so we will have to see what we can do then.”
Prince of Peace came out in a full court press late in the game to try to force some turnovers and close the gap, but the Warriors easily found their way to the other end of the floor, picking up a few easy baskets in the process.
“We have a plan as far as how you’re supposed to handle the pick and people coming off,” Nelson said. “We go through it at halftime but we get out there and have people out of position. It was not our best showing. No excuses, we just have to execute.”
The Irish have been a low-scoring team all season, but put up more shots than normal on Friday night. Two athletes scored in double digits—Isabel Hansen and Anabel Blount— and the Irish drained three 3-point baskets.
“One of the problems we have is we don’t spend nearly the time we need to on shooting. This week we were able to get a lot more shots in,” Nelson said. “I thought they shot with more confidence. Our defense and rebounds have to pick it up.”
Both Hansen and Blount had 15 points for Prince of Peace. The Irish come up against the Warriors next Thursday in the first round of the post season.
“We have two-thirds of a week to prepare and we plan to come out and put together a better outing than we did today,” Nelson said.
The boys lost their first matchup with the Warriors 80-57 and were looking for the redemption win. However, Patrick Mulholland was out sick, leaving the Irish without one of their leading scorers and ball handlers. The Irish fell 62-47.
The Irish stuck with the Warriors in the first part of the game. Kaidion Larson started things off with a layup, then the Warriors beat the Irish press down on two consecutive possessions to take the 4-2 lead. Larson drove and dumped the ball off to Payton Schnier, who easily found the rim to tie it up.
Cal-Wheat scored, and Larson answered by finding Michael Matthew on the block. The Warriors put in a pair of free throws, then Nate Moeller hit a short jumper for the Irish to keep it tied 8-8.
Two consecutive scores from Cal-Wheat gave them a four point lead, but Schnier drew a foul and sunk both free throws, Larson hit a layup, and Moeller finished on a fast break to take the 14-12 lead.
The Irish would end up tied with the Warriors 18-18 after the first quarter. They couldn’t keep up with Cal-Wheat for four quarters.
Larson ended up with a team-high 14 points, while Moeller finished with 11. Both Payton Schnier and senior Conner Williams—Prince of Peace’s 2018 Homecoming King—finished with seven points a piece.
The boys travel to Easton Valley on Tuesday
Marquette falls on road
LISBON, Iowa — Even with 26 points from Blayne Banowetz, Marquette Catholic couldn’t pull out a win over Lisbon and fell 77-68.
The game was close, with the Lions only leading by a few points most of the way. With three minutes left, they had the four points advantage and pulled away the last minutes of play.
In addition to Banowetz’s 26, Nate Brinker scored 17 and Ethan Pfiffner put up 11
Marquette falls to 9-11 and will take on Midland in Wyoming next.
Sabers edged by Mount Vernon
DEWITT, Iowa — Alex McAleer scored 18 for Central DeWitt and they fell 56-50 to Mount Vernon at home.
The Sabers only shots 10-20 from the free-throw line, while Mount Vernon put in 21-28 in free shots.
McAleer drained three 3-point field goals to aid him to 18. BJ Frick pitched in nine, and Mason Braddock added another eight.
The Sabers will take on Northeast tomorrow in another home matchup.
Comets handle Wilton
BELLEVUE, Iowa — Th Bellevue Comets took down the Wilton Beavers at home on Friday night, pulling out a 67-42 win thanks to Cade Daugherty’s 25 points.
Although trailing by two after one quarter of play, the Comets ran away in the second quarter to take the 14 point lead by halftime. They rolled to a win after that.
Daugherty led the scoring while Trey Daugherty pitched in another 13. Paxton Felderman, Lucas Tennant and Conner Michels all had six points a piece.
Daugherty’s 25 points tied him for the school’s single season scoring record.
Bellevue improves to 9-12 and will play Monticello on the road on Tuesday.
Bellevue defeats Wilton
BELLEVUE, Iowa — Rebecca Schroeder had 24 points in Bellevue’s 59-57 victory over Wilton on Friday night at home.
The Comets jumped to an early lead with the six point advantage after the first eight minutes of play. They maintained that into halftime, going into the break up 40-34.
The Beavers pulled close in the third, getting within one of the Comets. It stayed that way through the fourth but the Comets held on.
Schroeder led all scorers with 24. Lindsey Banowetz pitched in 13, Giana Michels scored 11 and Camryn Reeg had 10 for Bellevue.

That was a fantastic Hantai show at Kasmin. I'm glad to be seeing the French post-war artists, greats like Hantai, and others associated with supports/surfaces a little bit more visible in NY lately. I appreciate Joe Fyfe's recent putting together of “Le Tableau” at Cheim & Read for the same reason. That stuff looks interesting and has an intellectual and imaginative spirit that's pertinent right now.
unfortunately i missed the big show at the main space... this photo was taken at a small group show at the smaller space around the corner.yeah the fyfe tableau show was excellent.
I saw that little group show too, that was funny to stumble on. I remember they had a little Al Held piece in there as well, right?
i can only remember two small warhols... i was focused on this. i want that catalogue!
Didn't get to see this show. But did get to see the other Hantai show at Paul Rodgers 9W gallery and it was amazing. I have been a fan of Hantai's painting since introduced to it at the Wexner Center exhibition As/Painting.

Malloy names two to serve on crime victim privacy panel
HARTFORD — Gov. Dannel P. Malloy today announced that he has appointed Officer Jillian Knox of New Haven and Andrew Woods of Hartford to serve on a new task force that will be responsible for reviewing and making recommendations regarding the balance between the privacy of crime victims and the public’s right to obtain certain documents related to crimes.
Officer Jillian Knox joined the New Haven Police Department in 2002, where she served as a Patrol Officer for several years. She later spent a year and a half on assignment with the detective’s bureau investigating sexual assaults. Soon thereafter, she worked with children as a School Resource Officer at Riverside High School. Her latest assignment has been with the Victim Services Unit, where she helps victims of crime stabilize their lives after experiencing various degrees of trauma.
Woods is the Executive Director of Hartford Communities that Care, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to create a nonviolent, drug-free environment through the coordination and collaboration of services, promotion of education, healthy lifestyles, and practices, and by the formation of effective partnerships with key members of the community. The organization through its Hartford Crisis Response Team provides a variety of services to victims of weapon assaults and to families of homicide victims, including short and long-term counseling, and financial assistance for expenses related to crimes.
Established by legislation that Governor Malloy signed into law in June, the task force consists of seventeen members representing various backgrounds, including law enforcement personnel, victim advocates, freedom of information officials, academics, representatives appointed by the Connecticut Society of Professional Journalists, and appointments by legislative leadership. The chairpersons will be selected from among the members of the task force by the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the President Pro Tempore of the Senate.
The group is required to submit its report of recommendations by January 1, 2014.

Additional resource officers, no teacher furlough days and an increase in the price of school lunches are among the highlights in Gwinnett County Public Schools' 2013-2014 draft budget.
The budget represents recommendations from the district's superintendent, J. Alvin Wilbanks. Today (March 26) is the first day citizens will hear about the budget during area school board meetings. In Lilburn, that meeting is scheduled for April 2.
The first public hearing on the budget will be May 9. The second public hearing, the final budget adoption, and adoption of a tentative millage rate will be May 16. The final adoption of the millage rate will be in June.
Below is a snapshot of the highlights. Patch will provide more details in the coming weeks.
2013-2014 Budget Highlights:
1. How much is the budget, and is it more than last year?
The total budget is $1.763 billion. This represents a decrease of $12.8 million or .7 percent.
2. How much is the general fund budget, and what does that mean anyhow?
The general fund budget is the operating money of the school district -- how it runs day-to-day. Most of it is for instructional purposes. It is the largest chunk of the total budget, representing 71.4 percent
In the recommended budget, the general fund is $1.258 billion, which is an increase of 2.4 percent over the previous year.
3. Does this mean there will be a millage increase?
That is likely, but the district will not know how much that will be until around June, when more information is available on local property taxes.
Right now, the property tax digest is estimated to decline by an additional 2.5 percent. This decrease would result in a loss of $10.3 million at the current rate of 19.5 mills.
If there is a millage rate increase, it will be the first in eight years. However, district finance officials say it would only be a slight increase.
4. How does the new "Title Tax" affect the district?
In the capitol projects fund, the school district will lose approximately $10 million in sales tax revenue next year due to the elimination of sales tax on newly purchased vehicles. But, it will receive $7.8 million from the new "title tax" for the general fund budget for next year.
5. Will teachers have furlough days next year?
The superintendent's budget calls for no teacher furlough days. This year there were two. Teachers were compensated for one of those days in November.
The average teacher would see a $587 annual increase in salary, with increases ranging from $393 to $913.
Teachers have not received a salary increase of any kind since the 2010 fiscal year.
5. How much is the district expected to spend for each student?
The average amount spent per student increases in the recommended budget by $102 to $7,548. This is a 1.4 percent increase.
6. Are class sizes going up?
No. Despite a projected increase in enrollment of 1,690 students for a total of 166,667 students, officials say the class size ratio will stay the same. This would be the first time in five years that class sizes have not increased.
7. Does the enrollment increase mean more teachers?
Yes, there will be more teachers. Approximately 85 additional teacher positions will open due to enrollment increases. This is estimated to cost the district $6.2 million.
Overall, the district expects to need about 575 new teachers to start in August, with many being in special education.
8. More students mean more children to keep safe. What is the district doing about campus security?
In the superintendent's budget, 18 school resource officers are recommended. This would mean one additional officer per cluster. This has been a department request in prior years.
9. What about school lunches? Are parents going to shell out more money?
Yes. According to the recommended budget, meal prices will increase .25. This is, in part, due to new federal mandates. Lunch prices would be $2.25 for elementary students, and $2.50 for middle school and high school students.
10. How does the district plan to cut costs in order to balance the budget?
In part, the district will continue the hiring freeze at the district level, which amounts to $2 million; will not restore the 54 central office positions eliminated in the current year; and will continue district-level operating budget cuts over the past four years, which saves $9.7 million.

text: The Cumberland “comeback kid.” Rhode Island Governor Dan McKee bounces back after low approval ratings and a debate miscue by showing he is still the frontrunner for Governor. McKee at first seem timid but got into a comfortable groove that propelled him to even joke about almost skipping the forum altogether. For one solid hour, the Democrat candidates for Governor and the Republican candidate for Governor had McKee on a stage at Crown Plaza but at no time was it even slightly awkward for the low-approval Governor. FBI probe? Not mentioned. Tony Silvia probe? No mention. $3k bonuses to state workers and judges? Nothing. The fact he had planned to skip the forum was brought up by him as a joke. Biden low-approval numbers? No mention. Failing Providence schools? No mention. Epidemic of drunk driving? Not discussed. Super scam building? Barely a mention. The ILO contract and latest testing contract scandal? Zero. Last night they had to install fencing around the Supreme Court but it was not mentioned in a full hour. Governor McKee seemed to be laughing as he was gliding to his waiting vehicle completely unscathed. McKee must have thanked whoever convinced him to change course and attend the forum as the rest seem lost on the stage. Four months until the primary and the McKee campaign is leading the pack.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease also recognized as COPD is one of the most common diseases of respiratory nature in our society. This disease is the most typical for individuals who smoke on the regular basis. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a serious condition and in many cases, it leads to death. The rates of COPD among modern individuals are growing, and if this tendency continues to progress, there is a risk that COPD may hit the top of the list of the leading causes of death in just a couple of decades.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease affects people’s lungs and airways causing permanent damage to the respiratory system. COPD results in the shortness of breath that is accompanied by such symptoms as progressive coughing, sputum, and chronic inflammatory processes in the airways that appear as a reaction to constant inhalation of harmful substances (Herath & Poole, 2013). This disease makes the airways narrower and therefore breathing becomes difficult (Han, Stoller, & Hollingsworth, 2015). As a result, the patients may experience problems getting enough oxygen in their blood and releasing excess carbon dioxide. As a disease, COPD is preventable and there are treatments for it.
As COPD is caused by cigarette smoking in most cases, its main prevention treatment targets this habit as damage to one’s airways and lungs can be prevented using a tobacco cessation program (Mayo Clinic, 2015). The best ways to prevent COPD from appearing or progressing start with smoking cessation measures. However, the programs targeting the harmful habit of smoking have low effectiveness because of the addictive properties of nicotine (Mosenifar, 2015). Smoking may be facilitated by various factors such as the forceful promotion of this behavior, depression, and stress encouraging an individual to seek stress-reduction measures, or poor health literacy. The programs addressing the habit may be delivered with the help of communities, workplaces, family members, caregivers, or based on self-help (Mosenifar, 2015). Moreover, the individuals who already have COPD are recommended to get vaccinated for flu because catching flu they are likely to develop complications such as pneumonia and expose themselves to higher risks (COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) – Prevention, 2014). The upstream prevention of COPD includes the promotion of a non-smoking lifestyle to the youth (teenagers and adolescents) who have little or no experience smoking (Herath & Poole, 2013).
Smoking causes 75% of all COPD cases; the rest are facilitated by harmful workplace conditions that expose the employees to chemicals and gases that result in the damage of people’s airways and lungs (Herath & Poole, 2013). Moreover, genetic factor such as asthma and environmental influence such as air pollution is the other triggers of COPD. These causes may be prevented through a range of public health programs targeting environmental or occupation-related impacts. The treatment of asthma provided at an early age is another way of minimizing rates of COPD (Herath & Poole, 2015).
To sum up, the prevention of COPD may be divided into two main strategies – the prevention of complications and the prevention before the disease appears (How Can COPD Be Prevented? 2013). The former approach targets the individuals who already suffer from this disease and the second one is oriented to those who are at potential risk of COPD. The prevention of smoking is the main strategy for the reduction of the risks of COPD around the world.

In the Arena by, Richard Nixon
In the Arena was the eighth book written by Richard Nixon, published in 1990, and one of his most candid. The subtitle of the book is "A Memoir of Victory, Defeat, and Renewal" and Nixon opens with one example of each. For victory, the former President talks about his groundbreaking visit to China in 1972. For defeat, it is his resignation and self-imposed exile to California. His previous memoir, RN, ended with Nixon and Pat boarding the helicopter on the White House lawn, and the chapter on defeat picks up the night before, dealing conversations with his daughters, who wanted him to fight. He then talks about a sever bout of phlebitis, which sent him to the hospital for a surgery that almost killed him, and his years in the wilderness. For renewal, it was the writing of his memoirs and the television interviews with David Frost that helped him rediscover his purpose and decide what he wanted to do with the rest of his life.
Nixon critics who want to hear about Watergate shouldn't look here for answers (RN is better for that), as the President barely mentions the scandal. After the trio of chapters on victory, defeat, and renewal, the book is divided into five page mini-essays, each on a one word topic (e.g. faith, family, war, peace). He offers advice for politicians or anyone in a leadership role based on his years in office and things he learned from some of the big names of the 20th Century like Churchill, Eisenhower, and de Gaulle. The last chapter, "Twilight", is all about the importance of keeping active and mentally sharp as you age.
This is the third Nixon book I've read, and the man could write. He was also a very clear thinker and knew how best to communicate his ideas. It seems funny to say it about the only U.S. President to resign from office, but he writes at great lengths about duty and honor. If any politician lifts from his chapters on power, privacy, or governing, they'll have my vote.
Democrats hate Nixon for Alger Hiss and Watergate. Republicans hate Nixon for the EPA, OSHA, and wage and price controls. Conservatives should be heartened to know that in this book, Nixon says the wage and price freeze of 1971 was a mistake and he would not take that action if he had to do it over again.
In the Arena is a great read that I'd recommend to any student of American politics or history.

The concept of QI Charging is inductive charging, so it has another name called ‘Wireless Charging’. You can charge your device wirelessly, and this feature will become a new trend in power banks. The battery that can be easily compatible with the device is charged by the principle of inductive transmission, which frees the configuration of the data cable and the charging head to charge. This is a milestone in device charging, which facilitates the carrying of charging devices, and there is no need for a separate charger, charging cable or adapter when traveling.
We all know that electromagnetic fields can transfer energy between two individuals. This is the magnetic induction technology in our physics class. The principle of induction charging is the same, and it is now used in real devices.
Magnetic induction is through the interaction of two coils, one at the transmitter end and the other at the receiver end. The coil on the transmitter side generates an alternating current magnetic field, and then the receiver induces a voltage in the magnetic field to charge the device.
The current standard mobile device manufacturers include: Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, Oneplus, Meizu, Apple, Samsung, so all devices with the QI logo are compatible with wireless chargers.

Is there anything more precious than a newborn baby? I think not. The miracle of pregnancy, childbirth and the circle of life just knock me over every time I brush up against them. Just look at my new nephew and try to find one thing more awe inspiring than the arrival of a new life.
I can’t do it. I look at him and strains of Louie Armstrong’s What a Wonderful World go rolling through my head. I start thinking about the years that lie head for him and the milestones he’ll pass in just the first few years. And I wonder what he’ll be when he grows up. Oh, the places he will go, and he doesn’t even know it yet. His trip into the world was an adventure in itself.
Because the doctor suspected he was going to be a big baby, Mrs. Scrubs was scheduled for inducement. She arrived at the hospital Monday night for the preliminaries and was knee deep in the process by yesterday morning. The only problem was that someone forgot to tell Special D. he needed to move. The little stinker didn’t want to budge. Have I mentioned stubbornness runs in our family? Apparently, he takes after our side. He wedged himself in tight and hunkered down for a full day of pressure and coaxing. After hours of pitosin and two epidurals, Mrs. Scrubs was worn down, Special D. still wasn’t positioned right, and the doctor finally decided to do a c-section. Around 8:35pm he sprang into the world, kicking and screaming. Boy was he peeved! He was NOT happy to be out of that little hot tub he’d been floating around in the last nine months. No doubt about it, his lungs were fine. Of course, he was probably scared to see that big welcoming party that was waiting for him at the nursery window. Tell me we didn’t look as anxious as I think we did. Heh, I thought so. We didn’t even try to act cool about it. There were more camera flashes than a Paris Hilton movie premiere, and we resorted to taking desperate fuzzy pictures through a side door window until they put him in full view. But when he was finally scrubbed and measured and suctioned we got a good look at all eight pounds, eight ounces of him. He looks huge, like he should already have teeth.
Look at that hair. Don’t you just want to rub his head?And those pudgy like cheeks. Oh, those cheeks! And those feet. Lordy, he’s got some big feet. I love how Super Cop couldn’t take his eyes off of him. As I watched everything unfold, I kept thinking about those first few hours of being a parent and how overwhelming it is. How full your heart feels, and how you instantly fall in love with that little person who instinctively clings to you. How scared you are that you are responsible for turning this new life into a decent, productive citizen and how ill equipped you feel at doing that. There’s nothing like a newborn baby to make you feel stupid. Most of all I kept thinking about how Super Cop’s and Mrs. Scrubs’ lives have changed forever in ways they are only beginning to understand. They say a baby changes everything, and that is certainly true.
The Hula-gen’s are thrilled with this special delivery and can’t wait to get our hands on him this evening. We left the hospital last night around 10:30, before Mrs. Scrubs was ready for visitors because I had to get up at 5:30am for work, Teen Angel had to get up for school, and frankly, I thought the new parents had enough family in the way. You see, the grandmas had pretended to take a walk and then slipped right into the recovery room, oh yes they did. Tonight I’ll get my turn to rub his little head, smell that roly poly neck, wrap my finger around his finger and rub those big wrinkly feet. All of this just one week after I said goodbye to a friend who lost his battle with cancer. One life quietly ends, another loudly begins. What a wonderful world.
Grey winters day - I was feeling inspired by the snowstorm we had yesterday so I thought I'd go for a drive and take a few pictures. All images were taken in Seabrook, NH o...

WHSmith is contemplating further overseas expansion of its travel business by opening in more foreign airports.
The retailer, which last week revealed a better than expected 5 per cent dip in first-half profits, is considering adding to its existing international airport stores in Copenhagen and Shannon, Ireland, which it opened this year.
Sources close to the retailer said it is “very early days” for these shops and that WHSmith is “trialling different ways of running its stores”.
It is thought the retailer is examining the cost and potential of opening stores more widely in Europe, as well as outside the continent, although any expansion would be small scale to begin with. In the second half, WHSmith plans to open a further 24 travel stores and six high street stores in the UK.
The retailer is also in the process of rolling out the pick ’n’ mix offer that it launched after Woolworths’ demise to 200 stores.
Pre-tax profit dropped to £61m in the six months to February 28 and group operating profit was flat at £67m. Group sales were also flat at £731m, and like-for-likes fell 5 per cent. High street like-for-likes dropped 6 per cent and travel fell
1 per cent.
Gross margin improved 170 basis points. Half the margin growth came from the retailer’s continued focus on stationery, books, newspapers and magazines while shifting away from entertainment products, which slumped 33 per cent on a like-for-like basis.
WHSmith chief executive Kate Swann said: “Our markets remain challenging. However, we have planned accordingly and are confident in the outcome for the year.”
Singer Capital Markets analyst Matthew McEachran said: “The business is well managed and the low-ticket defensive product offer, the continued growth potential in the travel business and the margin/cost-led strategy offers a resilient platform. Strong cash generation and a strong balance sheet are also key positives. Full-year numbers are likely to edge up from £78m to £80m.”
Investec analyst David Jeary said the retailer had “again produced a solid set of results”. He said there is “substantial potential in hospital stores – WHSmith has less than 100 such shops at present but sees potential for 1,000.

The top end of the London housing market is reaching supply capacity and risks turning to bust if property continues to be built or if foreign buyers let up their current feverish demand.
‘There is a potential oversupply of homes priced between £1,000-£2,000 per square foot,’ said estate agent Savills London property development specialist Katy Warrick.
More than 20% of upper-end home buyers in 2012 were based outside of the UK. A string of new residential developments along the South bank from Battersea to London Bridge are due to reach the market in the next few years, testing demand in areas previously not considered prime locations.
The company pointed to a bracket it defined as ‘new prime’: new flats built outside of the traditional top-end locations and typically sold to non-London residents as either holiday homes or rentals, targeting around £5,000 per calendar month and offering a yield of between 3% and 3.5%.
‘We would question whether all new schemes can justify their premiums,’ said Warrick.
‘A slowdown in economic growth abroad and further taxation of high value property at home, could dampen demand for London homes in this bracket.
‘However, the real test will come via the rental market. Will tenants be prepared to pay the rents required to deliver the returns investors expect? We are already seeing weak rental growth in prime central London where there is plenty of rental stock.’
In contrast to rampant demand and shortages lower down the ladder, price inflation at the top end of the market has already slowed markedly, with prime residential values up 0.8% year-on-year.
‘There are a lot of developments going up along the river sold as ‘prime’ that simply aren’t as well connected as traditional prime districts,' James Moss of London estate agent Curzon told the FT.
‘Many of the international bank and City workers who rent high-end properties simply aren’t prepared to live in those areas at those prices.’
An extension of capital gains tax to property owned by overseas residents has been one idea floated by the government in recent weeks as it has taken heat over the rising cost of living and warnings that companies may be forced to relocate from London if employees are unable to live in the region.

The Kawasaki Ki-88 was a proposed design that was inspired by the Bell P-39 Airacobra of the US Army Air Forces. It had its liquid-cooled engine mounted behind the cockpit and driving a tractor propeller via an extension shaft. Design was undertaken in 1942 but, following the inspection of a full-scale mockup, development was discontinued within a year as its calculated maximum speed was only slightly higher than that of the Ki-61 already in production.
