I am 31. I am quite familiar with every procedure there is out there. My first advice would be to seek out a skilled professional who knows exactly what he is doing, and what best suits you. I did a vampire facial in Sydney, in a very well-known dermatology clinic. It was by far the best facial experience I had with the results that came in gradually, but were very obvious. It is really a non-surgical facelift, no doubt about it. The blood cells are treated in a way that aid your skin to produce more and more collagen, and the skin itself actually starts to feel more soft, smooth and elastic. Just like when I was 15. It’s really amazing, and harmless. There is nothing bad I can say about it, I’d just say be careful who does it. Do your research and choose a reputable doctor who will examine you, care for you and do follow ups if necessary.
Platelets, Zeichner explains, are rich in growth factors, which essentially act as energy boots for our skin. This helps our skin function optimally, increasing everything from collagen to elastin, while also bringing antioxidant and hydrating properties. "Platelet-rich plasma is now commonly used topically as part of a regular facial, used along with microneedling to enhance penetration into the skin, and is even being injected into the skin in the same manner as dermal fillers," says Zeichner.
Briefly, here's how it works: A doctor will draw blood from you, spin it in a centrifuge to extract the PRP, and then inject or apply it topically. The treatment "is being used to improve skin tone and texture, smooth fine lines, and even promote hair growth," Joshua Zeichner, director of clinical and cosmetic research in dermatology at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City previously told Allure.
Aside from the novelty of having a Dracula-inspired skin treatment done, the benefits of the PRP facial appealed to me. The PRP injections can help stimulate collagen. Combined with microneedling, the treatment can result in scar reduction, correction of sun damage, and minimizing fine lines and pores. And because the PRP is coming out of your own bod, there are no risk of side effects! However, patients who have blood disorders or take blood thinners should skip this type of procedure.
“Thanks to modern science, we now know that platelets contain various factors that stimulate the production of collagen, elastic fibers and new blood vessels,” says Mandeville. “Microneedling causes direct trauma to the skin. As a result, the body rushes to repair the wounds, sending platelets and cells to the rescue. As platelets play a significant role in terms of growth factors, it seems particularly appealing to inject the plasma back into the skin through the punctured holes to really speed up the healing of the tissues.”
After that, it was time for Dr.Lorenc to take a small amount of blood from my arm. When I talk with anyone about the procedure this is the step that makes them squirm the most. It was so quick and painless, I really don’t get what all the fuss is about. Once my blood was drawn it was spun in a centrifuge at a fast rate to separate the highly concentrated platelets from the red cells. While I waited for the centrifuge to work its magic I chatted with Rhiannon about the benefits of this procedure.
At Reflections, we know that you want to make smart investments that your future self will thank you for. That’s one of the biggest appeals of a Vampire Facelift – not only will you see results that last longer than having any one of these procedures on their own, but upkeep will be minimal, and for the results you’ll see, this is one of the most cost-effective treatment options.
As a result, skin spas and dermatologist offices like Skinfluence have seen more requests for PRP facials than ever before. Dr. Peredo explained that while the skin tightens after just one vampire facial, the more frequently you undergo the Dermapen (as in, once a month), the better your results will be. In other words, if you want a quick mini face-lift that leaves your skin looking refreshed and refined, drop $800 and give it a go. But, if you’re looking for more noticeable results in terms of fine lines, wrinkles, scarring, and pore size, get ready to dedicate a bit more time to your overall transformation—not to mention a pretty chunk of change.
Your surgeon draws blood from your arm (not your neck, as many a movie vampire has been known to do) and spins it to separate out the plasma, which contains platelets. These are the proteins and growth factors that may stimulate collagen production and thereby promote skin regeneration and rejuvenation. There are several kits available to isolate these growth factors, and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Once collected, the PRP is injected back into your face.

"A few years ago, I heard about a 'vampire facial,' and I was so intrigued," Kardashian West wrote. Right before she signed up to try the treatment, she found out she was pregnant, which meant that she couldn't use the a numbing cream or painkiller before the treatment as doctors typically recommend, she says. That made for a super uncomfortable experience. "It was really rough and painful for me. It was honestly the most painful thing ever! It's the one treatment that I'll never do again."
The Vampire FaceLift® Procedure™ is not as gruesome as a visit from Count Dracula. Your board-certified plastic surgeon begins by drawing blood from your arm. He or she then spins the blood to separate out the plasma. Blood plasma contains platelets, which are proteins and growth factors that stimulate collagen production, among other bodily functions. Collagen, in turn, is the protein that makes our skin look and feel supple, elastic and youthful.
The patient is numbed with a topical anesthetic gel. The PRFM is then injected with a short, small gauge needle into the desired areas of the face. The PRFM induces growth of new blood vessels, skin cells and collagen resulting in a healthy glow, better color, better tone, reduced wrinkles and sagging. The new blood flow helps create volume and shape, lifting the skin and sculpting the face. In 30 minutes, you are on your way to a new you with a more youthful appearance!
Providers of the Vampire Facelift (R) procedure take into account the mathematics of beauty as defined by much research (starting with the notebooks of Lonardo da Vinci) to avoid at all costs creating an unnatural shape. These ideas about the HA fillers are not commonly known even among the best of cosmetic surgeons and constitute part of the intellectual property protected by the trademarked name (Vampire Facelift®).
First, the physician (1) isolates growth factors from the patient's blood. Then (2), the provider uses a micro-needling device to create multiple micro-punctures --both driving the isolated growth factors into the skin & creating stimulus for tightening and rejuvenation of the collagen of the face. Then (3), these provider paints the growth factors onto the micro-punctures so that the growth factors soak into the tissue for further stimulation of tightening and skin rejuvenation.

Cal Ripken Baseball's graphics aren't very detailed, but the players look sharp. Perhaps in an attempt to reproduce the grass-cutting patterns you see at many ballparks, the fields sport fat green stripes on the grass that look really, really bad. The control is much better than the Genesis version, except for the diving, which is terribly clumsy. The baseball has a tiny shadow that makes fly balls difficult to track down. In terms of audio, this is a pretty quiet game. Low-key background music plays throughout the contest, and an enthusiastic umpire calls strikes and outs. Cal Ripken Baseball's best feature is the "zoom window" which displays full screen close-ups of exciting plays. These are cool but brief, so don't blink or you may miss them! All in all, this is a repectable baseball game for the SNES, but there's no way it can compete with the faster and more polished Ken Griffey Baseball.
Hauptmanko sind aber ganz klar die zu geringen Beeinflussungsmöglichkeiten der Spieler. Beim Schlagen kann der Ball angeschnitten werden, die Fänger auf dem Feld werfen sich die Bälle aber praktisch von selbst zu. Spieltiefe wird noch nicht einmal über Statistik und Menüs angedeutet. Baseball-Fans werden enttäuscht sein und die Feinheiten der Sportart schmerzlich vermissen. Solltet Ihr an einer guten Baseball-Simulation interessiert sein, wartet lieber auf andere Versionen.

Overall, this game is just plain boring. There are no real bugs but just plenty of flaws that should have been worked on. There are far better baseball games out there, including 8 bit ones. This is at or near the bottom of the 16 bit pack.

are showing up for me right now. I have been wondering what my archetypes are and I think they are some what unconventional. Not your classic heros and heroines, but they are already in my sculpture and in my art. For instance I have an affection for the snake motif, like native american, spiral, growth imagery. Really love spirals. I think I have been making them to remind myself. My felted project looks like a snake to me. It would be fun to do a series. 4 years ago

in June. We have quite a few now, I like this one with the beaded spiral. 5 years ago
a beaded project, I did the snake around the leg part. My friends and I are makeing these goddess dolls for each other adding wishes in the form of embroidery, beading etc. 5 years ago
of laying prone with bubbles flowing from and through me, like a hot springs, some of them were tiny souls. 5 years ago
about a sculpture of a guardian angel, some glass parts came to me yesterday. 5 years ago
had a spiritual experience getting the massage yesterday, sometimes her touch will make me weep, I felt like I had wings sprouting out of my back, then after, lots of artistic visions. Also I am doing a project that is a glass and steel angel that has opened up my heart. who knew? the whole day was filled with spontaneous serendipity. 5 years ago
did a piece for my visual journal documenting the waterfall I sat under at the hot springs, it was sureal and wonderful, very relaxing. made me think about “the river of life” an art project I have under conception. all those experiences and people who are a part of our lives. 6 years ago
on the “hatch ” painting. I am seeing stones over turned, where the insects are coming from and the symbolism is sharply painful and about uncovering the past and something else. seeing also the paths of the insects in motion. I am thinking about developing this painting further, maybe start it again. 6 years ago
painting is coming along. I have the whole surface painted in it’s first layer! it has some nice shading from dark to light and some mottled areas. it will need a wash of purple next, maybe a reddish purple, i have some spots bleeding out from oil spatters that I like. 6 years ago
have been showing up for this. I found some blue luster at the craft store that will be good. I am a little nervous (why) to just start laying down paint. Have a thought about the title. “Streams of mercy” from a song I love and representing my humble humble awareness of my close brushes with heartbreak. Also “The river of life” 6 years ago
I have this dream of making a blue canvas ( like underwater, a nice gradiated mix of deep blues) for a couple years now. I started it today (priming the canvas, which was actually cooler than it sounds because I got to think about brush strokes), I am proud of myself getting it started and looking forward to what it reveals to me. it is big 30 by 40 inches! 6 years ago
I saw my teacher today and did a nice drawing/painting of myself seated with insects all around me up on mushroom rock. it is such a cool process, almost dreamlike. I was looking for a way to put thank you , three times in to the drawing and I came up with three hearts down the open pages of a book that was over my heart. it was a beautiful image, I start to see the symbolism of openheartedness and rebirth and expansion. also stillness and acceptance. it was about the memory of the day my dad died and I went up there with my brother and sat for a while. It has this combination of being grounded (because of all the rock) and up in the air, because it is on a cliff. Isn’t that life, one foot here and one in the spirit. 6 years ago
is a wonderful artist and sometimes we have coffee and conversation. we are thinking about doing a visual journal, calendar style, haikus, images and words when ever it moves us for a year. he did,t call it that but that is what it is, fun to have ideas echoed back. I heard something cool today—-”liberating information” was astory about a guy who looked into obscure books to revive the info in them. I was thinking this has a parallel in our lives. what if we have “all the information” available , but we have to liberate it. sounds more fun than struggling 6 years ago
now this is for a client but the brainstorming we did was really fun and she is my visual journaling teacher. something that is an altar in the form of a goddess-angel with glass wings, may be 30 inches high, copper body encrusted with jewels with places to attach wishes until her skirt becomes a fully filled garmet like a square dancers skirt. her hands and face will be glass.Th e hands will be outstreched and open. she will have little pinholes of light shining through her clothing and light through her face and hands. words like “possibilities, believe, grow, fly ” on her wings and garmet amd base of stone. this is the first piece of reference for it. feel free to contribute 6 years ago
Well first I got a 2nd job, preloading boxes for UPS. It is a crazy thing, I get up at 3 in the morning and move boxes off a conveyor belt into the trucks. they are moving at us pretty fast. so early this morning I was thinking about the concept of being put in a box or boxed in and I realised I am living a metaphor. I have been really struggling against the idea of being limited by trying to conform to other people’s expectations (and of course my own), it has really been a lifetime issue. I have odd memories of my dad wanting me to sit in a corner and not talk or move, just be available, like being on a shelf.I also have echos of this throughout my life, the whole concepts frustrates me. so now I am thinking god (or my subconscious) has given me this chance to move a lot of boxes around, resort,reroute, organise etc. I think even the “preload” term has a certain irony to it (early input, memories, etc). It is a very surreal situation. I do feel very empowered and stronger and healthier from the exercise.(maybe I am exercising ghosts). This could take a while I think those bastards need a lot of exercise. ha ha. I am thinking also about expressing this in art form (to understand more). I have some little glass faces that I cast that I could build a glass box for , some could be inside and some could be emerging through, might be a good use for magnets here.this also relates to when I feel overwhelmed because I perceive that my choices becoming more and more limited.I find it pretty interesting how we receive and process in our lives.I am having a vision of a person moving through a sheet of glass, with part of them on one side and part on the other. 6 years ago
I am creating a personal ritual as an act of transformation. I have carved and painted the name of my father on a small piece of marble and the words”infinite gentleness” on the back. I am going to carry it to the highest point I can get to, 11,550 feet or so and place it on the mountain, symbolically laying my burden down in a high way. I am taking some chalk and writing on or around it the things I want to let go of. The way I see it is: the chalk will will weather in a few weeks , the name in a few years and the words “infinite tenderness” will last the longest. the piece of marble is a scrap from a self portrait praying piece I am working on so it feels like a piece of me. 6 years ago
I have a vision of an art piece, a fairly thick clear fused glass torso with an image of a blue book in the heart area. The book is open and has the words thank you across the top of the two open pages and the pages of the book are filled with tiny sparkling winged insects, kind of firefly like or starlike. It is upright on a steel base that hold the edges of the torso like hips. This represents my sitting in a hatch of insects thinking about the death of my father and thinking about his energy spreading out like the insects and that the hatch represents rebirth. the open book represents an open heart. 6 years ago
This is a method of using visual art for a journaling process. The images hold a lot of information that continue to speak to me over time. It is powerful tool for self awareness and a gentle non judgemental way of self expression. They are like visual poems. 6 years ago

Just moments after being declared guilty in a Saudi court, a woman was dragged kicking and screaming into a parking lot by police and a man clothed in white. She screamed to proclaim her innocence, against a court that is all too eager to convict women without due process. The woman from Myanmar was accused by her Saudi husband for being responsible for the death of the couple’s 7 year old daughter, though exact details of the case still remain a mystery. She was helpless against the brutality that would follow her trial, and she ultimately paid with her life.
Saudi Beheading Of Myanmar Woman Sparks Outrage From Rights Groups
The graphic video was filmed by an onlooker who stood back from the group that actively participated in subduing the emotional woman. Even though the resolution was low, and details were shaky at best, you could clearly see and hear her pleading for her life. She repeated the same phrase over and over, as if the men who wished her dead would change their minds. A man wielding a sword seemed eager to get the woman into a position where he could easily cut at her head. Some even claim that the man in white was the woman’s husband, determined to deal justice at his own hands.
After the woman fell to the ground, the executioner held her by her clothing around the top of her head. He took two hard swings with the sword, and the woman let out one last audible gasp. The horrific sound signaled the end of the execution, as blood began to pour out of her severed neck. The sword not only decapitated her head, but cut off the shroud that was covering her face. The executioner seemed nervous after he delivered the final blow, seemingly contemplating taking another swing at the woman’s neck.
It is clear from the video that many of the police who were present were determined to witness the execution, as none made any attempt to stop the process. The video was posted onto social media shortly after it was taken, and soon became the subject of many woman’s rights and civil rights groups. Saudi Arabia has been ridiculed for their continued use of barbaric beheadings as a sentence for sometimes petty crimes.
Saudi Arabian officials, embarrassed by the leaked video have reportedly arrested the person that they believe to be responsible for recording the execution and posting it online. He may not be expected to receive the death penalty for the crime, but he will likely receive a significant punishment. Filming a beheading is illegal under Saudi law, and even though it is rare for them to be filmed, this execution was already the 10th execution carried out by Saudi courts since the beginning of 2015.

This photo was taken from the Arnas Valley side. A hike can reach the area to the Lago Dietro La Torre, and the photo was taken from just below the Lago Dietro La Torre.
We started our hike early in the morning and planned to be at the Lake by sunrise. We had a great forecast, but it got cloudy and foggy. However, when we reached the area, it started to clear, and we had a beautiful scene in front of us.

Q. My husband and I have split up and we have three children. My husband runs a successful family business. We have led a comfortable lifestyle but since we split, he has completely cut me off financially. I do not work and have no income of my own. I need legal advice but I cannot afford a lawyer. Now that there is no such thing as legal aid, how can I best protect my interests?
The Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 that came into effect in April 2013, effectively removed legal aid for the majority of family law cases. It is now only proven victims of domestic violence, or cases concerning challenging care orders being imposed by local authorities that remain eligible for legal aid. Therefore, most people will have to pay legal bills from their own pocket.
This is a difficult position that people from all walks of life find themselves in. It sounds like your situation could become quite complex, particularly if the separation is acrimonious. Professional advice is crucial. There is no cheaper alternative to appointing a solicitor, other than going it alone. Many people do feel comfortable dealing with their divorces and financial settlements without legal assistance. However, there are risks which can be significant. In contentious divorces where there are factors like yours to consider (i.e. a family business and significant assets) the risks become even larger.
The lack of public funding or legal aid as it was commonly referred to, should not put you off confronting your matrimonial breakdown. Burying your head in the sand can cause more problems further down the line resulting in higher legal bills than were perhaps necessary at the outset.
There are various options available to minimize the costs burden.
- Your solicitor can organise mediation appointments for you to help you reach a settlement out of court. If both you and your husband are willing to attend and your solicitor advises you that your case is appropriate, this can significantly reduce costs as it can be quicker and more effective to negotiate in person rather than via solicitors’ correspondence.
- To assist with the payment of the costs of general family litigation, your solicitor will be able to give you information about available credit options such as litigation loans. Please note that a solicitor is not permitted to give financial advice and so you must seek independent financial advice.
- In some cases, solicitors may be prepared to agree with their client that payment will be made at the conclusion of the case when the payment of legal bills can be made out of the financial settlement awarded to the client.
- Have you approached family members for financial assistance at this difficult time? Many people find this to be the best solution when family members are willing and able to help.
- In some cases, a spouse is willing to volunteer funds to assist his/her spouse if they are in a stronger financial position. This is quite rare.
- If your spouse will not volunteer funds and none of the above options are available to you, you could ask the court to make an interim order for regular payments from your husband to you throughout the financial proceedings in order to help you pay legal costs. The court can, in some cases, order one spouse to make payments to the other specifically for legal costs. The downside is that there are extra legal costs involved in making this application to court. It is possible to claim those costs back from your spouse, if the court so awards.
Each of these options (and the list is not exhaustive) are case specific and so we would highly recommend that you speak to a solicitor to see what your options are.

AC Milan’s Serie A title defense suffered another blow on Saturday as, despite coming back from two goals down to draw 2-2 at Lecce, the champions trailed league leaders Napoli by nine points.
Rafeal Leao and Davide Calabria scored to lift Milan out of a dismal first-half display that left them trailing with an own goal from Theo Hernandez and a well-placed header from Federico Baschirotto.
Stefano Pioli’s side struggled to match promoted Lecce, who beat Atalanta and Lazio in their last two games at the Stadio Via Del Mare.
But the draw, which put second-placed Milan one point ahead of Juventus, who were smashed by Napoli on Friday night, caps off a poor week that has severely compromised their bid to retain the Scudetto.
It comes after blowing a two-goal lead in the closing minutes against Roma last weekend and then being knocked out of the Italian Cup in the round of 16 by a 10-man Torino side in midweek.
“We will believe in it until the end. Now we have to see what we did wrong and what we did better,” midfielder Ismael Bennacer said when asked if Milan still had hopes of holding on to their title.
“We are a good team, when we have these problems we are able to solve them on the pitch.”
Traveling to Saudi Arabia for Wednesday’s Italian Super Cup against Inter Milan, Milan now lead their local rivals by just one point after Lautaro Martinez handed them a 1-0 win over downbeat Verona.
The seven-time European champions were lucky to be just two goals down at half-time in an entertaining game, as Lecce had two great chances to secure an unassailable lead.
Federico Di Francesco slid wide from close range before connecting a perfect cross for Valentin Gendrey, who headed wide with the goal at his mercy in the 26th minute, by which time the hosts were already two lead.
– ‘All wrong’ –
“We got everything wrong that we could have done wrong in the first half. We made dumb mistakes and it was an uphill fight from then on,” Pioli told DAZN.
And after Calabria headed Milan to a header in the 70th minute, they rarely threatened to wrest all three points from them, with Fikayo Tomori nearly giving Lecce the win when he nearly deflected Antonino Gallo’s cross into his own net.
“We had the Italian champions in front of us…if you don’t chase them and put pressure on them, you’ll end up in trouble,” Lecce coach Marco Baroni said.
“We are a recently promoted team, we want to create a space for ourselves… with these results we are getting closer to achieving it.”
Lecce is 12th and one point behind Monza, which defeated bottom-place Cremonese 3-2 to continue a remarkable first season in Italy’s top flight.
Monza was in the third tier when former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi bought the club in 2018 for three million euros.
They now sit 11th after their seventh win under 38-year-old Raffaele Palladino, who took over in mid-September, thanks to Patrick Ciurria’s opener in the eighth minute and goals in every half from Gianluca Caprari.
Monza are unbeaten in four games and look like a good bet to stay on their feet, unlike Cremonese, who are yet to win in their first Serie A campaign since 1996 and then sacked manager Massimiliano Alvini in a bid to salvage their season. .
Italian media report that former Genoa, Cagliari and Palermo coach Davide Ballardini is in line to fill the vacant position.

The decision has taken many Ghanaians by surprise.
This is because before approaching IMF, the government, on numerous occasions, insisted that a bailout from the Fund is not in its plans to restore fiscal stability in the country.
In February, the Finance Minister, Ken Ofori-Atta noted that the repercussion of seeking an IMF bailout will not be favourable for the country’s fortunes.
“Consequences are dire, we are a proud nation, we have the resources, we have the capacity.
We are not people of short-sight, but we have to move on.”
To this, the e-levy was introduced as a homegrown solution to raise money for the country.
However, Gabby Otchere-Dorko on Wednesday tweeted that the levy has failed to live up to the expectations of the government.
Many Ghanaians have been reacting to the news. Some people are not happy that the government “forced e-levy down the throats” of the public only to seek an IMF bailout.
Others are questioning why the government has changed its decision from no IMF support to an IMF bailout.

Most importantly, they became controllable, which suddenly made them useful both as weapons of war and, even more vitally, as our means of accessing outer space. Without the rocket, it is safe to say we would not only have never gone to the moon or visited every planet in our solar system. What started as an irritating, but still deadly, weapon in World War One grew into a monstrosity in World War Two- sinking more than any other type of weapon used. Today, with the advent of nuclear power—which gave the submarine nearly unlimited range and endurance—it has become the capital warship in every first-class Navy in the world and as such has effectively rendered naval warfare of the past obsolete.

Ask anyone who has ever served on one. Until Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin in , almost any little bug that someone picked up was potentially fatal. Once penicillin—and later a whole range of other antibiotics—came on the scene, however, death due to bacterial infection became rare, resulting in a greatly reduced mortality rate and much longer life-span. It also rendered many scourges of the past—from small pox and typhoid to gonorrhea and syphilis—obsolete or, at least in the case of venereal disease, something easily treatable. Yes, I know it destroys brain cells and renders people emotionally and psychologically damaged, but really, where would we be without the boob tube?

This would mark the decline of electric cars at the time with them being completely eclipsed by combustion engine cars when large deposits of petroleum were discovered worldwide. By , most electric car manufacturers had either gone out of business or stopped production completely. The technology persisted for specialist uses like forklift trucks, milk floats in the UK, golf carts and some niche vehicles like the Henney Kilowatt but it generally stayed on the sidelines until its renaissance later in the 20th Century.
Although GM did experiment with electric vehicles as early as the mid's their first concept, the Electrovair never made it to mass-production. Fast forward a few decades and General Motors decided to "give it try" once again well not entirely voluntarily as you will see. Their first modern-age electric car, the General Motors EV1, was developed in the mid's.

The EV1 was the first electric car to be mass-produced and purpose-built in the modern era by a major car manufacturer.

The original Roadster is a battery electric vehicle BEV and was the first highway legal serial production all-electric car to ever use a lithium-ion battery as a power source.

Of course, in recent years it can now add a very unique epithet to its already impressive list - the first production car to ever be launched into space.
Between its production years , over 2, Roadsters were sold in over 30 countries around the world. Here is a selection of events in the history of the electric car. This timeline is not exhaustive. Easy, the Toyota Prius right?
Sadly not. According to records, the first electric vehicle was actually developed much earlier. Although not a car by our definition, it's still a very interesting concept. The same chap also adapted his design for use in a boat propulsion system the same year. As an engineer, it taught be quite a bit about the development of the field of engineering, as opposed to science, as I know it today. Literally every facet of the modern world has been shaped by these eight innovations. Our lives today would be unimaginably different even if one of them did not develop.
Billington, David P. – | workpendti.tk
Furthermore, it is fascinating how each innovation later launched entire industries and millions of jobs all over the world. This is very inspiring. The book gave me the impression that these were the equivalents of Google, IBM, and Facebook in their day.

About David P. Princeton University Gordon Y. Books by David P.


Researchers from Stanford University have identified DNA-embedded nanoparticles as key to unlocking cleaner energy sources.
According to a new study by Stanford scientists, combining synthetic DNA with microscopic particles could help harness the geothermal energy.
During an experiment, researchers used embedded synthetically derived DNA molecules between silica nanoparticles and an additional silica shell.
The particles were then injected through packed sand at various temperatures in order to assess their survivability through the journey.
Stanford School of Earth, Energy & Environmental Sciences study first author Zhang said that the particles were able to survive temperatures as high at 150 degrees C, validating its ability to survive the extreme environments of geothermal fields while allowing for better mapping.
Zhang added: "Currently, reservoir fracture networks are still poorly known despite advances in seismic imaging, tracer testing, and other imaging and sensing technologies.
"Nanotracers are able to carry much more information about the reservoir, from temperature distribution to fracture geometry.
"By encoding each batch of tracers with a unique DNA signature, we could get a much clearer picture of the temperature distribution and fracture geometry that we need."
According to the researchers, the initial study marked a significant step ahead in meeting the goal of characterizing geothermal resources which is difficult to exploit.
Stanford Geothermal Program director Roland Horne said: "Each enhanced geothermal system is unique based on the underlying geology and fracture geometry.
"To develop those systems properly, we will need to know how those fractures join together and how the temperature field is distributed. DNA-embedded nanotracers could be a powerful tool that would help realize geothermal energy’s global potential."
According to estimates, geothermal energy could contribute to 5% of the world’s power supply upon optimizing enhanced geothermal systems.
"Five percent of 22,000 billion kilowatt hours is still a lot of energy," Horne added.

- "Reach the Russian President's daughter before Makarov's men get to her."
- — Level description
"Scorched Earth" is the sixteenth mission of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3. The mission takes place in Berlin, Germany, as Delta Force, assigned to rescue the Russian President's daughter from the impeding attack by the Ultranationalists. Delta is supported by a column of German tanks from the Bundeswehr.
- Derek "Frost" Westbrook (playable)
- Kelly (status Unknown)
- Grant (status Unknown)
- Granite Leader (K.I.A.)
- Alena Vorshevsky (P.O.W.)
- German Tank Commander (presumably K.I.A.)
- Vladimir Makarov (mentioned only in the cutscene)
The mission starts with Frost lying on the ground, voices can be heard but are muffled, gunfire and explosions are sounding in the background also. Frost looks down at his hands and soon looks up to see Sandman running over to help him. The pair then starts moving past injured soldiers until they reach a collapsed building, where the screen fades.
Twenty minutes prior to this event, Frost is on an MH-6 Little Bird, flying into a war-torn Berlin where many American troops and German tanks advancing through the bridge across towards Alena's present known location. While flying towards their destination, one of the Little Birds is hit by RPG fire and crashes on the streets below.
Frost's ride lands on the roof of a building and Frost and the rest of Team Metal get off and start engaging hostile Russian forces. Once Team Metal has eliminated all threats on the roof, they move inside to the office areas. After clearing the first floor of offices, they ascend the building to reach the second floor. Here they fight off more Russian soldiers before reaching a staircase. This staircase takes Team Metal onto a rooftop, where the Russians have constructed a makeshift mini-base. After all the enemies here have been taken out, they signal Team Granite to start their assault on the hotel.
At this point, Frost and Grinch provide overwatch for Team Granite. This is where the player will need to use their Scoped M14 EBR for sniper support. Once all the enemies are down, Team Granite lands on the roof, but more hostiles suddenly appear from inside the hotel, and the player must kill them with their sniper rifle. As soon as all the enemies are eliminated, Russian tanks arrive in the streets below and begin firing on the hotel using their cannons. Using a SOFLAM, the player must target the tanks for a strafing run by friendly A-10 Thunderbolts. After all the Russian tanks are destroyed, Team Granite rappels down to a floor below. However, once they land on the floor, the door they are about to enter is suddenly breached, but Team Granite is luckily able to take them out before the breachers do so to them. They then proceed to enter through the door, making them no longer in Team Metal's line of sight, giving them no further sniper support. But this sadly becomes their downfall as they are ambushed as soon as the round the corner through the door. The player then starts hearing gunfire and yelling on their radio as Team Granite becomes overwhelmed. An explosion suddenness goes off as the player hears it on the radio and sees it through the doorway, the radio goes static, Granite Team is gone.
With Granite Team eliminated, the team that was supposed to rescue Alena, Team Metal 0-1 informs Overlord of the situation. Overlord understands and approves of them taking over the responsibility of securing Alena. The player must then rappel down the building he is on along with the rest of Team Metal. After landing on the street, Team Metal goes through a back alley, where they meet the remains of the dead Team Onyx, until they reach the river bank, where they assist a German tank column to repel enemy Russian forces on the main street. Frost then destroys a Russian T-90 using an RPG-7 and Team Metal moves up the street with the German tank column. However once they reach the end of the street, a building rigged with explosives detonates, sending the building crashing down on the American and German forces.
Soon the player regains consciousness and wakes up in exactly the same place he had started the mission. He then follows Sandman through the ruins of buildings, until the hotel is visible across the street. Team Metal then battles Ultranationalist troops as they advance into the hotel and up flights of stairs to rescue Alena. When they reach the room Alena is being held in, they prepare for breaching. But before they can, the door explodes, sending the player to the floor. Frost takes Sandman's pistol and kills two Russians. After recovering from the explosion, the enemy helicopter takes off with Alena on board. Grinch tries to take a shot, but Sandman stops him, saying that it's too risky and that their objective has failed. The mission ends with Sandman relaying the bad news of the Ultranationalist capture of Alena to Command.

37. Once dropped off by the helicopter, head into the building, go up the stairs, fight your way into the office and find the intel on a desk in a cubicle.
38. In the same building, on the roof, the intel is located behind the fences of a short platform with three air conditioning units, near some short metal stairs. The laptop has its back turn towards you, so look carefully as it blends in with the background.
39. After rappelling down the building, enter the bookstore. The intel is easy to find on top of the cash register.
40. Once you made contact with German tanks, locate the Teknik Deutsch building on the left side of the street. Head inside the lobby and look for the intel beside the elevators.
41. Near the end of mission, after fighting your way into Von Werde Hotel, you will reach a staircase with brown door. Wait for Sandman to open it. Find the intel on a black coach beneath the stairs.

Innovation Institute Intends to Spur Startups in Pittsburgh
The University of Pittsburgh is combining resources to spark innovation and increase support for entrepreneurial initiatives on and off campus.
Pitt Thursday launched the Innovation Institute, which consolidates the existing offices of Technology Management and Enterprise Development as well as the Institute for Entrepreneurial Excellence.
Pitt Provost Patricia Beeson says the new institute will eliminate any duplication of services by the three previously separate units. It is part of a "broader effort to cultivate an environment that empowers faculty, students, and staff to reach greater heights in their innovative research and entrepreneurial activities.”
Marc Malandro, vice chancellor for technology management and commercialization, will serve as interim director of the institute.
“The Office of Technology Management and the Office of Enterprise Development will continue to work with faculty, staff, and students to facilitate the commercialization of new technologies and the formation of new companies originating at the University,” Malandro said. "Our goal is to give them (students) a choice rather than leaving Pitt and going to an established company, understanding that there's this other path which may be entrepreneurship, which may be starting your own company."
According to Malandro, 98 startup companies have been launched around Pitt innovations since 1996.
“The Institute for Entrepreneurial Excellence will continue to support and educate business leaders in the regional entrepreneurial community,” he said.
Malandro said more than 800 startup companies in the region have received guidance from the Institute for Entrepreneurial Excellence over the last 20 years.
He said innovation is essential for the university to be a stronger leader in education, research, and regional development.
"We look forward to doing our part to maximize our economic development footprint," Malandro said.
The start of Pitt’s new Innovation Institute comes a day after Carnegie Mellon University announced that 36 new startup companies were created at CMU this year — a record for that university. The startups include PECA Labs, which has developed a heart valve for children, and SolePower LLC, a company commercializing power-generating shoe insoles that can charge portable electronics including cell phones.

Having been dethroned by Thailander Denkaosen Kaowichit last December, ex-WBA flyweight champ Takefumi Sakata (35-5-2, 16 KOs), 114.25, decked his second comebacking bout and impressively demolished ex-Indonesian national champ Dicky Putra (5-4, 2 KOs), 113.25, a taller southpaw, with persistent body bombardments at 1:47 of the second round on Monday in Tokyo, Japan. It was also Sakata’s second after moving up to the 115-pound category, and he looked sharp and speedy in his short work. Putra displayed solid southpaw lefts to the onrushing ex-champ in the opening session, but Sakata’s combinations to the belly sank him for the count in the neutral corner. Putra, eight years his junior at 21, was unable to beat the count because of his pain in agony. (more…)

MAY 15, 2006 - Posted at 8:08 a.m. CST
COLUMBIA, MO - Farmers are getting older. And agriculture experts say that doesn't bode well for the future of food production.
That's why Missouri and several other states are experimenting with programs to draw younger farmers back to the fields.
Randy Saner is an extension agent who runs a University of Missouri program, called Farm Beginnings: Preparing a New Generation of Farmers.
He says one thing keeping young farmers away is steep capital costs for land, equipment and livestock.
That's why the program offers low-interest loans to farmers.
Saner says training is great, but the state also has to invest in farmers.

USAO Encourages STEM Curiosity with Women in Technology and Science Workshops
The University of Science & Arts of Oklahoma will hold its 13th annual Women in Technology and Science event on Saturday Nov. 5 in Austin Hall. This full day of fun and educational workshops is open to fifth- and sixth-grade girls interested in the STEM fields: science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
The cost of attendance is $5 and registration will begin at 8 a.m. Pre-registration is highly encouraged as space is limited, however walk-ins are welcome. Snacks will be provided, but participants should bring a sack lunch and inform USAO faculty of any special dietary needs or food allergies.
“We ask you to encourage your daughter to continue this amazing tradition,” said Dr. Jeannette Loutsch, professor of biology and workshop organizer. “These workshops are an excellent opportunity for girls to learn about careers in science and technology, while also participating in hands-on activities led by female professionals in the central Oklahoma area. Each girl will attend seven different workshops throughout the day, providing wonderful building blocks for these young ladies at this very critical stage in their educational development. It is crucial that they know of the many options they have both in terms of education and careers in these high-demand fields.”
For more than a decade, USAO has offered the WITS workshop to fifth- and sixth-grade girls in the surrounding communities as a way to give them early exposure to the potential open to them through science and technology, including speaking with women currently working in medicine, chemistry, agriculture, education and other fields. They will also learn about the classes they will need to take to prepare them for high school, college and their chosen career.

Son of Ernesto Camelo and naïve painter Ana Camelo, Marcelo was born in Rio de Janeiro, having grown up in Jacarepaguá, a west suburb of the city. He had his first contact with rock as a fan of American hard rock Bon Jovi. His contact with rock music would take most of his time in college, through an active participation in a fanzine focused on Rio's music scene where he interviewed many musicians including Alexandre Kassin, a member of the Band Acabou la Tequila at the time, one of the major musical influences of Camelo. When studying journalism at the PUC-Rio Marcelo had first contacts with stage performing through forming the bands Drive By, Barnabé and Minanina's Popcorn before creating Los Hermanos.
In 1999, Marcelo Camelo's band, Los Hermanos, released their first self-titled album. The band later released Bloco do Eu Sozinho and Ventura respectively in 2001 and 2003.

However Camelo decided to change everything and moved to São Paulo lived with his wife and returned to his old town Rio de Janeiro he says after handling titled Toque Dela: "To my demands, I was missing another type of aesthetic I made a strategic stop to hear what he had written. He brought [the tracks] to Rio, and they sound totally different here and in Sao Paulo. Already on the plane disk is changing. "
Marcelo is the composer, singer and solo player of the biggest hit of Los Hermanos, the song Anna Julia, which became a world hit with Jim Capaldi's english version, featuring himself in vocals, Deep Purple's Ian Paice in drums, The Jam's Paul Weller in bass and the beatle George Harrison in guitar (playing the solo).

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy’s second term as Connecticut’s 88th governor began Wednesday at 2:15 p.m. as Andrew McDonald, the state Supreme Court’s first gay justice and the governor’s former legal adviser, administered the oath of office in the canvernous drill shed of the State Armory.
Asked if he would swear to uphold the duties of the office, Malloy raised his right hand and replied, “I most assuredly do.”
The crowd was smaller than four years ago, when Malloy became the first Democrat in 24 years to take the oath as governor, facing a $3.6 billion deficit, a stagnant economy and the high expectations of a party that could win every office except the one that mattered most.
“These four years now behind us were not easy,” Malloy said. “We faced difficult choices, with few simple answers. We had contentious debates, even among friends. We weathered historic storms from which we had to rebuild. We were shaken by unthinkable tragedy in Newtown, and we found consolation within one another.”
Malloy quickly glossed over the past four years, prompting applause when he mentioned increasing the state’s minimum wage, which jumped to $9.15 last week and will rise to $10.10 in two years.
At 4 p.m., he was to deliver a policy address to a joint session of the General Assembly, many of whose members filed into the armory as a group to watch Malloy, Attorney General George Jepsen, Comptroller Kevin Lembo, Treasurer Denise Nappier and Secretary of the State Denise Merrill take their oaths. Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman was sworn in Wednesday morning by Malloy.
He was preceded to the microphone by his wife, Cathy, who made remarks she had hoped to share on election night, but postponed after Republican Tom Foley declined to concede until the following day. She talked about how they met while Malloy was a student at Boston College in the 1970s.
The First Lady complained she never got to make a campaign commercial in 2014. She said she had a ready tag line: “As a Massachusetts girl would say, ‘He’s wicked smaht’.”
Her voice choking, she described how the Malloys moved her mother into the Executive Residence for the last two years of her life and said, “Your governor was an amazing son-in-law.”
Lowell P. Weicker Jr., a governor who faced a similar deficit upon taking office in 1991, was in the audience. He skipped the inaugural in 2011 over a sense he had been slighted by the incoming administration.
When Malloy introduced him, the crowd rose and applauded.
“Lowell, that’s everyone standing,” Malloy said, smiling. “Not just your wife.”
Malloy marched with his wife and three sons, Dannel, Ben and Sam, from the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Arch in Bushnell Park, around the Capitol and into the Armory, which is named for his most recent Democratic predecessor, William A. O’Neill. It was a parade with more marchers than spectators.
Near the end of the route, Malloy greeted Robbie and Kiley Mullins, children who came to the parade with their parents, Rob and Jeanne Mullins of North Branford.
“How are ya?” Malloy said.
Their father said,”They are interested in politics.”
