Google Releases the Pixel: A $999 Chromebook
Subject: Mobile | March 12, 2015 - 02:56 PM | Sebastian Peak
Until yesterday virtually all Chromebooks had two things in common: low-end specs and equally low prices. Most sell for around $200 and are available from virtually every manufacturer, and the relative success of these Google Chrome OS laptops in the post-netbook portable space has relied on price. Now Google has announced a new concept for a Chromebook: give it high-end specs and charge $999.
Is it reasonable to assume in 2015 that a user could be perfectly content using cloud storage and web-based apps to accomplish daily tasks? In many cases, yes. But asking $1k on the strength of better hardware is going to be a difficult sell for a Chromebook. The specs are impressive, beginning with a very high resolution 2560x1700 touchscreen, and like the new MacBook this is also sporting USB Type-C connectivity (with the same 5Gbps speed as the Apple implementation).
The pricing for this device continues a disturbing trend, coming just days after Apple's announcement of a Core M MacBook for $1299. In appearance the Pixel seems to borrow rather heavily from the MacBook Air design with a silver finish, glass trackpad, and backlit island-style black keyboard. If the build quality and screen are top notch then Google may have some justification for the price, but with the limitation of just 32GB of local storage (an additional 1TB cloud storage is offered at no cost for 3 years) and an OS that can only run applications from Google's Chrome store, the price does seem high.
Specs from Google below:
- 12.85" multi touch display, 2560 x 1700 (239 ppi), 400 nit brightness, 178° viewing angle
- Intel® Core™ i5 processor @ 2.2GHz, 8GB memory or Intel® Core™ i7 processor @ 2.4GHz, 16GB memory
- Intel® HD Graphics 5500, supports 4K video output over DisplayPort or HDMI with optional Type-C video adapter cable
- 32GB or 64GB of flash storage
Backlit keyboard, fully clickable etched-glass trackpad
- 720P HD wide angle camera with blue glass
- 2x USB Type-C (up to 5Gbps data, 4K display out with optional HDMI or DisplayPort™ adapter, 60W charging)
- 2x USB 3.0
- SD card reader
- Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 2x2, Bluetooth 4.0
- High power stereo speakers, built-in microphone, headphone/mic combo jack
- Universal Type-C USB Charger, 60W
- Up to 12 hours of battery life
- Dimensions: 11.7" x 8.8" x 0.6", 3.3lbs
If you're ready for the $999 Chromebook experience the Pixel is available now from Google's online store.
The MSI GS30; is that a GTX 980 in your dock or are you just happy to see me?
Subject: Mobile | March 12, 2015 - 02:46 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: msi, gs30, gamingdock
The MSI GS30 Shadow is a high powered laptop with the first external GPU that you can actually buy. The GamingDock is indeed rather unattractive and hefty on the outside but it is what is on the inside that counts, a full GTX 980 with its own dedicated PSU. The external connection is a rear mounted PCIe slot which allows the 980 to run at the speeds you would expect it it were inside a desktop PC. The laptop itself has a Haswell i7-4870HQ, 16GB of DDR3-1600 and pair of Kingston 256GB M.2 SSDs in RAID 0, with the only internal graphics being the Iris Pro 5200 on the CPU. Kitguru has posted a review here, though it would be interesting another review featuring a head to head competition with the GTX980M.
"When we previewed the MSI GS30 Shadow and GamingDock at the end of 2014 we were blown away by the combination of Core i7-4870HQ CPU in the laptop and the desktop GTX 980 graphics card in the GamingDock. The concept of using an external dock to add proper gaming graphics to a thin and light laptop worked superbly well and we could hardly wait for the official release of the final package of hardware."

Introduction and Specifications
Had you asked me just a few years ago if 6-inch phones would not only be a viable option, but a dominant force in the mobile computing market, I would have likely rolled my eyes. At that time phones were small, tablets were big, and phablets were laughed at. Today, no one is laughing at the Galaxy Note 4, the latest iteration in Samsung's created space of larger-than-you-probably-thought-you-wanted smartphones. Nearly all consumers are amazed by the size of the screen and the real estate this class of phone provides but some are instantly off put by the way the phone feels in the hand – it can come off as foreign, cumbersome, and unusable.
In my time with the new Galaxy Note 4 – my first extended-use experience with a phone of this magnitude – I have come to see the many positive traits that a larger phone can offer. There are some trade-offs of course, including the pocket/purse viability debate. One thing beyond question is that a large phone means a big screen. One that can display a large amount of data whether that be on a website or in a note-taking application. The extra screen real estate can instantly improve your productivity. To that end Samsung also provides a multi-tasking framework that lets you run multiple programs in a side-by-side view, similar to what the original version of Windows 8 did. It might seem unnecessary for an Android device, but as soon as you find the situation where you need it going back to a device without it can feel archaic.
A larger phone also means that there is more room for faster hardware, a larger camera sensor, and a bigger battery. Samsung even includes an active stylus called the S-Pen in the body of the device – something that few other modern tablets/phablets/phones feature.

Introduction and Design
Although the target market and design emphasis may be different, there is one thing consumer and business-grade laptops have in common: a drift away from processing power and toward portability and efficiency. At the risk of repeating our introduction for the massive MSI GT72 gaming notebook we reviewed last month, it seems that battery life, temperature, and power consumption get all the attention these days. And arguably, it makes sense for most people: it's true that CPU performance gains have in years past greatly outstripped the improvements in battery life, and that likewise performance gains could be realized far more easily by upgrading storage device speed (such as by replacing conventional hard drives with solid-state drives) than by continuing to focus on raw CPU power and clock rates. As a result, we've seen many mobile CPU speeds plateauing or even dropping in exchange for a reduction in power consumption, while simultaneously cases have slimmed and battery life has jumped appreciably across the board.
But what if you're one of the minority who actually appreciates and needs raw computing power? Fortunately, Lenovo's ThinkPad W series still has you covered. This $1,500 workstation is the business equivalent of the consumer-grade gaming notebook. It's one of the few designs where portability takes a backseat to raw power and ridiculous spec. Users shopping for a ThinkPad workstation aren't looking to go unplugged all day long on an airplane tray table. They're looking for power, reliability, and premium design, with function over form as a rule. And that's precisely what they'll get.
Beyond the fairly-typical (and very powerful) Intel Core i7-4800MQ CPU—often found in gaming PCs and workstations—and just 8 GB of DDR3-1600 MHz RAM (single-channel) is a 256 GB SSD and a unique feature to go along with the WQHD+ display panel: built-in X-Rite Pantone color sensor which can be used to calibrate the panel simply by closing the lid when prompted. How well this functions is another topic entirely, but at the very least, it's a novel idea.
GDC 15: Imagination Technologies Shows Vulkan Driver
Subject: Graphics Cards, Mobile, Shows and Expos | March 7, 2015 - 07:00 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: vulkan, PowerVR, Khronos, Imagination Technologies, gdc 15, GDC
Possibly the most important feature of upcoming graphics APIs, albeit the least interesting for enthusiasts, is how much easier driver development will become. So many decisions and tasks that once laid on the shoulders of AMD, Intel, NVIDIA, and the rest will now be given to game developers or made obsolete. Of course, you might think that game developers would oppose this burden, but (from what I understand) it is a weight they already bear, just when dealing with the symptoms instead of the root problem.
This also helps other hardware vendors become competitive. Imagination Technologies is definitely not new to the field. Their graphics powers the PlayStation Vita, many earlier Intel graphics processors, and the last couple of iPhones. Despite how abrupt the API came about, they have a proof of concept driver that was present at GDC. The unfinished driver was running an OpenGL ES 3.0 demo that was converted to the Vulkan API.
A screenshot of the CPU usage was also provided, which is admittedly heavily cropped and hard to read. The one on the left claims 1.2% CPU load, with a fairly flat curve, while the one on the right claims 5% and seems to waggle more. Granted, the wobble could be partially explained by differences in the time they chose to profile.
According to Tom's Hardware, source code will be released "in the near future".
Finally, a SHIELD Console
NVIDIA is filling out the family of the SHIELD brand today with the announcement of SHIELD, a set-top box powered by the Tegra X1 processor. SHIELD will run Android TV and act as a game playing, multimedia watching, GRID streaming device. Selling for $199 and available in May of this year, there is a lot to discuss.
Odd naming scheme aside, the SHIELD looks to be an impressive little device, sitting on your home theater or desk and bringing a ton of connectivity and performance to your TV. Running Android TV means the SHIELD will have access to the entire library of Google Play media including music, movies and apps. SHIELD supports 4K video playback at 60 Hz thanks to an HDMI 2.0 connection and fully supports H.265/HEVC decode thanks to Tegra X1 processor.
Here is a full breakdown of the device's specifications.
|NVIDIA SHIELD Specifications
|NVIDIA® Tegra® X1 processor with 256-core Maxwell™ GPU with 3GB RAM
|Video Features
|4K Ultra-HD Ready with 4K playback and capture up to 60 fps (VP9, H265, H264)
|7.1 and 5.1 surround sound pass through over HDMI

|40W power adapter
|Weight and Size
|Weight: 23oz / 654g
Height: 5.1in / 130mm
Width: 8.3in / 210mm
Depth: 1.0in / 25mm
|Android TV™, Google Cast™ Ready
|Bundled Apps
|In the box
NVIDIA SHIELD controller
HDMI cable (High Speed), USB cable (Micro-USB to USB)
Power adapter (Includes plugs for North America, Europe, UK)
|TV with HDMI input, Internet access
|SHIELD controller, SHIELD remove, SHIELD stand
Obviously the most important feature is the Tegra X1 SoC, built on an 8-core 64-bit ARM processor and a 256 CUDA Core Maxwell architecture GPU. This gives the SHIELD set-top more performance than basically any other mobile part on the market, and demos showing Doom 3 and Crysis 3 running natively on the hardware drive the point home. With integrated HEVC decode support the console is the first Android TV device to offer the support for 4K video content at 60 FPS.
Even though storage is only coming in at 16GB, the inclusion of an MicroSD card slot enabled expansion to as much as 128GB more for content and local games.
The first choice for networking will be the Gigabit Ethernet port, but the 2x2 dual-band 802.11ac wireless controller means that even those of us that don't have hardwired Internet going to our TV will be able to utilize all the performance and features of SHIELD.

GDC 15: Native versions of Doom 3, Crysis 3 running on Android, Tegra X1
Subject: Graphics Cards, Mobile | March 3, 2015 - 10:43 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: Tegra X1, tegra, nvidia, gdc 15, GDC, Doom 3, Crysis 3
Impressively, NVIDIA just showed the new SHIELD powered by Tegra X1 running a version of both Doom 3 and Crysis 3 running natively on Android! The games were running at impressive quality and performance levels.
I have included some videos of these games being played on the SHIELD, but don't judge the visual quality of the game with these videos. They were recorded with a Panasonic GH2 off a 4K TV in a dimly lit room.
Doom 3 is quoted to run at full 1920x1080 and 60 FPS while Crysis 3 is much earlier in its development. Both games looked amazing considering we are talking about a system that has a total power draw of only 15 watts!
While these are just examples of the power that Tegra X1 can offer, it's important to note that this type of application is the exception, not the rule, for Android gaming. Just as we see with Half-Life 2 and Portal NVIDIA did most of the leg work to get this version of Doom 3 up and running. Crysis 3 is more of an effort from Crytek explicitly - hopefully this port is as gorgeous as this first look played.
GDC 15: NVIDIA Announces SHIELD, Tegra X1 Powered Set-top with Android TV

Tagged: Tegra X1, tegra, shield, gdc 15, GDC, android tv
NVIDIA just announced a new member of its family of hardware devices: SHIELD. Just SHIELD. Powered by NVIDIA's latest 8-core, Maxwell GPU Tegra X1 SoC, SHIELD will run Android TV and act as a game playing, multimedia watching, GRID streaming set-top box.
Odd naming scheme aside, the SHIELD looks to be an impressive little device, sitting on your home theater or desk, bringing a ton of connectivity and performance to your TV. Running Android TV means the SHIELD will have access to the entire library of Google Play media including music, movie and apps. SHIELD supports 4K video playback at 60 Hz thanks to an HDMI 2.0 connection and fully supports H.265/HEVC decode thanks to Tegra X1 processor.
Speaking of the Tegra X1, the SHIELD will include the power of 256 Maxwell architecture CUDA cores and will easily provide the best Android gaming performance of any tablet or set-top box on the market. This means gaming, and lots of it, will be possible on SHIELD. Remember our many discussions about Tegra-specific gaming ports from the past? That trend will continue and more developers are realizing the power that NVIDIA is putting into this tiny chip.
In the box you'll get the SHIELD set-top unit and a SHIELD Controller, the same released with the SHIELD Tablet last year. A smaller remote controller that looks similar to the one used with the Kindle Fire TV will cost a little extra as will the stand that sets the SHIELD upright.
Pricing on the new SHIELD set-top will be $199, shipping in May.
ARM and Geomerics Show Enlighten 3 Lighting, Integrate with Unity 5
Subject: Graphics Cards, Mobile | March 3, 2015 - 12:00 PM | Ryan Shrout
Tagged: Unity, lighting, global illumination, geomerics, GDC, arm
Back in 2013 ARM picked up a company called Geomerics, responsible for one the industry's most advanced dynamic lighting engines used in games ranging from mobile to console to PC. Called Enlighten, it is the lighting engine in many major games in a variety of markets. Battlefield 3 uses it, Need for Speed: The Run does as well, The Bureau: XCOM Declassified and Quantum Conundrum mark another pair of major games that depend on Geomerics technology.
Great, but what does that have to do with ARM and why would the company be interested in investing in software that works with such a wide array of markets, most of which are not dominated by ARM processors? There are two answers, the first of which is directional: ARM is using the minds and creative talent behind Geomerics to help point the Cortex and Mali teams in the correct direction for CPU and GPU architecture development. By designing hardware to better address the advanced software and lighting systems Geomerics builds then Cortex and Mali will have some semblance of an advantage in specific gaming titles as well as a potential "general purpose" advantage. NVIDIA employs hundreds of gaming and software developers for this exact reason: what better way to make sure you are always at the forefront of the gaming ecosystem than getting high-level gaming programmers to point you to that edge? Qualcomm also recently (back in 2012) started employing game and engine developers in-house with the same goals.
ARM also believes it will be beneficial to bring publishers, developers and middleware partners to the ARM ecosystem through deployment of the Enlighten engine. It would be feasible to think console vendors like Microsoft and Sony would be more willing to integrate ARM SoCs (rather than the x86 used in the PS4 and Xbox One) when shown the technical capabilities brought forward by technologies like Geomerics Enlighten.
It's best to think of the Geomerics acquisition of a kind of insurance program for ARM, making sure both its hardware and software roadmaps are in line with industry goals and directives.
At GDC 2015 Geomerics is announcing the release of the Enlighten 3 engine, a new version that brings cinematic-quality real-time global illumination to market. Some of the biggest new features include additional accuracy on indirect lighting, color separated directional output (enables individual RGB calculations), better light map baking for higher quality output, and richer material properties to support transparency and occlusion.
All of this technology will be showcased in a new Subway demo that includes real-time global illumination simulation, dynamic transparency and destructible environments.
Geomerics Enlighten 3 Subway Demo
Enlighten 3 will also ship with Forge, a new lighting editor and pipeline tool for content creators looking to streamline the building process. Forge will allow import functionality from Autodesk 3ds Max and Maya applications making inter-operability easier. Forge uses a technology called YEBIS 3 to show estimated final quality without the time consuming final-build processing time.
Finally, maybe the biggest news for ARM and Geomerics is that the Unity 5 game engine will be using Enlighten as its default lighting engine, giving ARM/Mali a potential advantage for gaming experiences in the near term. Of course Enlighten is available as an option for Unreal Engine 3 and 4 for developers using that engine in mobile, console and desktop projects as well as in an SDK form for custom integrations.
Who Should Care? Thankfully, Many People
The Khronos Group has made three announcements today: Vulkan (their competitor to DirectX 12), OpenCL 2.1, and SPIR-V. Because there is actually significant overlap, we will discuss them in a single post rather than splitting them up. Each has a role in the overall goal to access and utilize graphics and compute devices.
Before we get into what everything is and does, let's give you a little tease to keep you reading. First, Khronos designs their technologies to be self-reliant. As such, while there will be some minimum hardware requirements, the OS pretty much just needs to have a driver model. Vulkan will not be limited to Windows 10 and similar operating systems. If a graphics vendor wants to go through the trouble, which is a gigantic if, Vulkan can be shimmed into Windows 8.x, Windows 7, possibly Windows Vista despite its quirks, and maybe even Windows XP. The words "and beyond" came up after Windows XP, but don't hold your breath for Windows ME or anything. Again, the further back in Windows versions you get, the larger the "if" becomes but at least the API will not have any "artificial limitations".
Outside of Windows, the Khronos Group is the dominant API curator. Expect Vulkan on Linux, Mac, mobile operating systems, embedded operating systems, and probably a few toasters somewhere.
On that topic: there will not be a "Vulkan ES". Vulkan is Vulkan, and it will run on desktop, mobile, VR, consoles that are open enough, and even cars and robotics. From a hardware side, the API requires a minimum of OpenGL ES 3.1 support. This is fairly high-end for mobile GPUs, but it is the first mobile spec to require compute shaders, which are an essential component of Vulkan. The presenter did not state a minimum hardware requirement for desktop GPUs, but he treated it like a non-issue. Graphics vendors will need to be the ones making the announcements in the end, though.
Before we go further, some background is necessary. Read on for that and lots more!

Newsome lands Sun Belt honor
Isaiah Newsome has earned three more weekly honors for his strong play at Texas State.MONROE, La. -- One day after being named the Walter Camp Football Foundation's National Defensive Player of the Week, ULM's
Newsome was named the Sun Belt Conference Defensive Player of the Week on Monday and also earned a pair of honors from the College Football Performance Awards. Newsome was named the National Defensive Performer of the Week as well as the National Defensive Back of the Week by CFPA.
Newsome recorded a 71-yard interception return for a touchdown with 6:09 to play in the first quarter to give ULM a 7-0 lead. Later in the game, Newsome returned an interception for 75 yards to put the Warhawks in front, 14-0, with 11:07 remaining in the third quarter.
He is the second Warhawk to ever tally two interceptions for touchdowns (two; Karlton Washington; Northwestern State; Sept. 25, 1999). He is also just the second Sun Belt player to accomplish the feat (two; Tony Lukins, New Mexico State; at Tulsa; Oct. 6, 2001).
The Petal, Miss., native set a new SBC record in interception return yards (146) and interception return average (73.0). Newsome broke the records held by Middle Tennessee's Darin Davis who had 101 interception return yards and 50.5 yard average vs. Florida Atlantic on Nov. 27, 2010.
Newsome also finished the game at Texas State with four solo tackles, including one tackle for loss.
The Warhawks have the week off from competition and will return to the gridiron on Oct. 26 when they host Georgia State for Homecoming.

Ohh, I'm about to go Andre the Giant
Lyric Meaning
Famous wrestling champ
Andre the Giant was a huge man, as well as a very good wrestler. He died because he was growing at an abnormal rate, and Wayne uses this metaphorically: He will continue to get bigger in the rap game, but before he dies he will also become much more skilled, probably at a far faster rate than his competition.
Let's just hope Weezy doesn't die from the rate of growth.

No plumbed water the reason I purchased I was told by the Good Guys that you can buy a wine rack and an extra glass shelf. NO you can't. As stated in another review, what do you do if a shelf breaks they are after all glass? My water won't pump to make ice. The ice box is empty, I cleaned everything. Not working. About 18 months old. Cold water via the dispenser is not cold which is surprising considering the container is in the fridge. 3 October 2015
Just OK Mine just started leaking today from the ice side, every where was water in the kitchen and no cooling on the ice side. The amazing thing is this happened just after 2 year and one month, so don't have warranty any more. 2 August 2015
Love the fact that no plumbing is needed Bought my fridge about 15 months ago, the water filter stopped working. i did buy a extended warranty i called LG direct and they had someone out and fixed it within 3 working days :) Hopefully it was just a faulty part and not something that keep breaking as i love the fridge. Thanks guys for the speedy work. 22 June 2015
Reasonable value for money Pros: Exterior finish is easy to clean and looks good. Fridge and freezer stay cold. Ice maker works well and is easy to use. Cons: Not enough shelves in fridge to pack smaller items efficiently although there are alternative shelf slots. Water comes out of door at room temp not chilled. Ice maker takes up a lot of freezer space. 10 October 2014

Continuing on in my series about cybersecurity and whether or not government should manage it centrally, I thought I would look at some obstacles towards setting up such an office.
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Depending on your interpretation, the federal government is limited to the powers explicitly outlined within the Constitution. What about overseeing cyberhealth is spelled out within the powers delegated to the federal government? Removing botnets? Cleaning up users infected systems? Enforcing standards for RFCs? There are a couple of responses to this. One is that cybersecurity is a matter of national security; bots could engage in military or economic sabotage (just look at what happened to the 12 colonies in Battlestar Galactica). National security does fall into the realm of the federal government and therefore, cybersecurity does fall under the umbrella of a central office at the national level. Another response (and here comes the cynic in me) is since when has the 10th amendment been an actual, as opposed to theoretical, constraint on the powers of the federal government? There are many programs too numerous to name - the federal home mortgage program, the department of education, agriculture, wildlife services, environmental protection agency... Some of these programs have good intentions, of course. There is no denying that. But they are clearly programs that are not delegated to the United States by the Constitution and, the way I read the 10th amendment, are reserved to the States or to the people. But they are not, they are under the auspices of the federal government. So, why not simply add one more? On the other hand, I am not a lawyer who specializes in Constitutional law. So what do I know?
The second obstacle - Government Precedent Historically, government does not have the greatest track record when it comes to making things efficient. I once read (from a small government type) that in order for the government to create $1 worth of public value, it takes them $2 of taxpayer money. In other words, government is very inefficient and the private sector could do it much better for a much smaller cost. At this point in time, much in the cyberworld has not been decided, but technology does have a way of eventually settling on standards. VHS beat Beta, Blu-ray defeated HD-DVD. Microsoft Windows is the de facto standard for business computers (please, no arguments here, it's a fact that most office workers run Windows and Office for their daily tasks), UTF-8 is gaining more popularity as a character set encoding. In Europe, the continent converged on the GSM standard whereas previous incarnations were a ragtag bunch of FDMA access technologies, none of which were interoperable. The Bluetooth project was an initiative designed to allow any electronic doodad to talk to anything else. It's taking some time but it's catching on. And speaking of communications devices, the SIM card in most cell phones today are interoperable with other cell phone companies' handsets. The point is that yes, sometimes it takes a while to get technology to agree on common standards. But it does happen. What do we need government for to make these decisions? They can't possibly have access to all the data that consumers want or need whereas private enterprise can react more quickly and update their standards accordingly. The come back to this is that we cannot afford to wait while private business decides how they want to handle this. Whereas in the previous cases the biggest detriment to consumers was inconvenience, in this case, the biggest detriment to consumers is fraud, fake pharmaceuticals, and the ruining of the Internet. How much time can we afford to wait?
Are there other obstacles that I haven't named?
More in a future post.
The problem with this is that government does not have the agility or flexibility to respond and adapt as needed. All public entities whether government or public school are bound and limited in what they can do such that it suspends common sense. They cannot act quickly or without policies or laws in place to guide a consistent standard approach to every aspect. That is not what is needed here.
If, on the other hand, the authority to act quickly and have very high discretion is given, then you run the possibility of corruption, misuse of office or a tyrant.
I cannot say I have a magic bullet for the problem. A possible middle ground perhaps would be a grant to offer financial incentive to a private entity or group of entities to handle the problem.
It will be interesting to see the remainder of your thoughts on this matter.
I'm going to wrap up my brief series on cybersecurity and the federal government by taking a look at
I totally agree... since when has the gov't cared or paid attention to the 10th amendment? If they enforced it the way they should have all along 90+% of the federal gov't actions and 90+% of their spending would be unconstitutional.
Sadly, the 10th amendment has little meaning anymore. And I think the Obama administration will care even less about it than the previous administration.
Interestingly, I believe that the US Constitution, as literally written, gives the Federal gov't too little power. (and much of this believe is due moderization of interstate commerce, transportation, and communications ...all of which the founding fathers could not possibly have anticipated)
But, in practice, we've gone so out of control too far with too much federal power (far far beyond what I'd advocate) that it makes a mockery of the Constitution. We got there largely through judges' overreaching proclamations--instead of through written law and amendments. And the problem with this approach is that--once it starts--there no clear line designating where to stop.
This is like untying a ship from its dock and letting it float away. At first, it seems safe and nearby. But, eventually, its destination and safety are in jeopardy.

Perfect for that fall/winter seasonal gathering—and mighty tasty! I figured it was also a fun post to start the week off. Hope you have a most excellent Monday.
Being that I love all things rustic and non-traditional, it's clear that I was smitten when Mekala of Tie That Binds posted this baby shower featuring her custom stationery. Oh, to be a guest! The subtle charm and sweet southern flair is so classy, and the stationery was perfect for the occasion. This chica is constantly showcasing one beautiful event after the other, and I so admire her hard work and building a dream business from the ground up. Motivation for us all to pursue our dreams.

These wine glass charms were a super fun craft that my sis-in-law, Colleen, put together for a bridal shower. Perfect for any group of gals, using their personal taste to create something unique and sassy.
Just combine any bead with any wire in any shape. I just loved how easy this craft was, especially for the non-crafty types. And the perfect job for the leftover stash of unwanted beads! My charms turned out more dull than others', because I wanted to coordinate with my kitchen color! < nerd
} A selection of colored wire
} A slew of leftover beads // all shapes & sizes
} Wire cutter
} Needle nose plier
And this is my adorable nephew, Van, that is the creative genius behind Colleen's blog name, Chipmonkey. I included him just for show and tell.
Remember the fun melon palette clothespins I made? Time to share why I made them!
My friend Amy from Lovely Nest hosted THE most adorable shower I've ever been to. Each detail was adorable, everything from the invite to the cupcake toppers! She shares tips on her blog, so swing over if you are in the market for baby showers. All photography courtesy of Lovely Nest, posted here. Yummy fruit kabobs courtesy of myself, but can't share those with you.
I have one additional surprise to share Friday—the non traditional "game" we played!
Supplies // Paper cut into 2" squares // stir straw // stick pin // star stickers {see fig. 1}
Stick the pin through the center. Cut each corner toward the center, leaving a dime sized amount {see fig. 2}. This should leave you with four triangle shapes. Take one corner of each triangle (be consistent on the right or left side of each triangle) and punch a small hole with the pin. Place the star on the pin and then each of the corner holes {see fig. 3}. Then take the pin and stick through the drinking straw {see fig. 4}. To complete, you could either glue the sharp end to the straw or perhaps take needle-nose pliers and bend a small 90 degree angle.
So there you have fun little drink accents!
Please let me share my hopes and dreams (in the form of styling this photo shoot).
Photo Info > Strawberry shortcake, showcased red white & blue. BTW, this recipe for lemon shortcake is AH-mazing. Pinwheel drink stirrer DIY coming Wednesday.
Rambling > This is what I want to be when I grow up (or do, I suppose). Yes, I just threw this together for no reason other than the fact that someday I want to earn a living styling photos. I love it. SO MUCH. Coming up on six months of having this blog, I hit a small identity crisis of "what I am I doing with my life?" What steps should I take? How do I map this out? What is the means to this end? This blog is a tool, but am I using it the right way? So many questions that will go unanswered. Creative lives have to be individually explored one step at a time—with no instruction manual—and outside the box. If anyone has direction or a word, please drop me a hint. That's all. Thank you for your time. I hope you enjoyed the fruits of my mini crisis.
I threw together a fun weekend photo shoot. The rest of the photos showcase Monday. Don't miss it!
Any weekend projects you plan to tackle? Holiday planning perhaps?
Probably the most amazing thing about having this blog is knowing that people are inspired by my ideas and encouraged to be thoughtful. Here is an adorable gift that was such a treat to see. Kerry from Sweet Sanity used this free download and made a super great bridal shower gift. I love it and I'm SURE it was the best gift at the shower!
I LOVE show and tell—so be sure to document and send my way!
Time to show you what I've been working on for months! All photography is by Amy of Shutterly Lovely. She did an AMAZING job, I just love the photos. My friends helped A LOT on many of the details, so I don't want to take all the credit. I couldn't have done it without them.
The bridal shower was held on the patio of a small coffee shop called Cafe Ventana. It rained nearly the entire time, but we were sheltered luckily. Centerpieces were squares of cut fabric, birdie name tag favors, and mason jars with coffee beans and daisies. For the guestbook, I had guests bring marriage advice on a notecard and tape it into a vintage book I picked up. The book is actually German text, which is probably better since the point is not to read it! For the shower game, I replicated this adorable quiz, (which was inspired by this). It was my favorite part, the couples' answers were SO GREAT and everyone loved the game. For prizes, the winners could choose a vintage coffee mug.
More details and images later today, don't miss it!

I think it's great how you solved the lighting of the face and hair, despite not having a colored drawing level you handled it great that you dont need to know what type of lighting is the face. Its excellent sorry for my english its not very well
I did use a picture for reference so it wasn't so hard to find out how the light would fall on her face. Thanks though.
Epic piece. Nice use of shadows and highlights. I think the hair should be smoother but the sort of work contrasting the softness of the skin. I also like how the eyes and lips serves as pop of color drawing emphasis to her face. Good job

Within the divorce procedure, among the many intricate problems that have to be settled is the department of assets and debts; this becomes tougher to stay if no pre-marital contract was produced, of course, if the divorcing spouses believe it is hard to acknowledge phrases, demanding the problem to become settled in court instead.
You will find two basic programs whereby courts divide assets and debts; fair distribution and group home. Under equitable distribution, possessions, all earnings and obligations acquired by the couples are reasonably or rather, in the place of equally, divided between them. This system of distribution is the one more commonly used in most of the states and offers greater flexibility, though, it thinks numerous factors, generating the result that is possible very difficult to outlook. According to the website of Marshall & Taylor, a number of the aspects the judge considers under fair distribution contain:
Underneath the system termed neighborhood residence, on the other hand, exactly what the spouses purchased during marriage is equally divided between them, no matter their gaining capacity, fiscal needs, etc. This system, nonetheless, limits low-marital properties or distinct properties, that's, those already owned by the individual also before marriage.
In a few claims the definition of low- house or marital resource can sometimes include:
You can find seven group property states in America currently: Iowa, California, Florida, Arizona, the Carolinas, Florida and New Mexico. All of these states allow couples to decide on group property measures during breakup anda Alaska and Puerto Rico are not group property states.
Sarcomas are types of cancer that stem from the soft connective tissues. They are often malignant and can spread to surrounding satellite nodules. Although it only makes up around 1 percent of all cancer, they can affect both young and old people. Because they are malignant, they can spread to other parts of the body (such as the lungs and liver) through the lymph system, the blood, or by affecting the surrounding tissues that can lead to ball-like growths.
One of the very rare types of sarcoma is the uterine sarcoma, which affects the uterine muscles or tissues supporting the uterus. It should not be mistaken for endometrial cancer, which is caused by cancer cells growing in the uterus lining. Exposure to x-rays has been known to increase the risk of uterine sarcoma, as well as having had radiation therapy on the pelvis and taking tamoxifen for breast cancer treatment. Surgery is often used to help diagnose, stage (determine whether the cancer has spread to other parts of the body), and treat the uterine sarcoma at the same time. It is through surgery that the doctor will remove as much of the cancer possible. For more information about the types of surgery that can be used in diagnosing, staging, and treating uterine sarcoma, click here.
Metastatis is what occurs when the cancer spreads to other parts of the body. When the cancer cells spilt from the primary tumor, they can travel through the blood or lymph system to other parts of the body. This often happens when the tumor being removed was believed to be benign fibroids that was not detected or diagnosed as cancerous. Surgeries such as hysterectomies using power morcellators have been known to increase the risk of spreading the cancerous cells. Many victims have already come forth and filed lawsuits stating they were not informed of the risks of using the medical device and the manufacturer's negligence in sharing the information.
If detected early, uterine sarcoma can be treated and can be cancer-free. The chances of recovery (prognosis) for uterine sarcoma depends on the stage of cancer, the size and type of cancer, if the case is new or a recurring one, and the overall health of the patient.
Raising a child suffering from cerebral palsy can be very painful, difficult and costly for any family. This brain disorder can either partially or totally eliminate a child's capability to perform and actively participate in fun-filled activities and, depending on the severity of the disorder, but a severe type of cerebral palsy will definitely require medical care for rest of the child's life.
Cerebral palsy is an umbrella term that is used to describe a group of incurable and chronic brain disorders that impair a child's motor skills, coordination, balance and mental abilities. These result to
abnormal muscle tone and reflexes, problems with movement, insufficient muscle growth, misaligned joints, deformities in bones, extreme fatigue due to movement and walking, difficulties in breathing, language and speech, feeding and swallowing difficulties, learning disabilities, cognitive impairment and so forth.
More than 500,000 children are currently suffering from this injury, which may be congenital or acquired in nature, and about 10,000 more acquire it every year. Besides that fact that cerebral palsy is currently the most common neurodevelopmental motor disability in children, it is also most often a result of medical malpractice due to negligence.
There are four major forms of cerebral palsy, each being based on the specific effects of this disorder:
Victims of medical malpractice resulting in cerebral palsy have legal rights that may entitle them to receive compensation for all the damages due to the injury. For better understanding, click here to learn more about cerebral palsy.
Preparing a plan regarding how one intends to ensure the future of his/her loved ones upon his/her death may be quite a challenge due to the many different legal documents and concerns that need to be dealt with. Making one, however, such as an estate plan, need not be complicated, and since death is a natural occurrence that everyone will go through, making preparations early can prove to be really advantageous and beneficial, especially to your family.
Ensuring your family's future may be done through a Will or a Living Trust. The contents of a Will, which become effective upon your death, basically allows you to name your chosen heir/s, the specific individual/s to whom you wish to bequeath your property; it also lets you appoint an executor or personal representative, whose tasks shall include: the collection and management of all your assets; selling of your real estate or securities, if necessary; payment of your remaining debts; and, the distribution of what remains from your assets (after all debts have been paid) to all your named heirs. While still alive, you as the testator or the person who made the Will, can make changes to it as often as deem necessary. To be able to execute it, it will first need to be filed in the local probate court (in the state where you reside or where the estate you own is situated) and then subjected to probate, the legal process that will prove your Will's validity.
A Living Trust or an "inter vivos" trust, on the other hand, is a written form of agreement, which specifies the transfer of your properties to a Living Trust. It requires a trustee, a role which you, yourself, can assume; the law, however, allows a trust company or a bank to assume this role.
A Living Trust manages all transferred properties for the benefit of your heirs named in the trust agreement. You can also revoke or amend it (just like a Will) any time before your death. But, while a Will may be executed only upon your death, a Living Trust takes effect as soon as you create, and transfer your properties into, it. Its length of effectivity is considerably flexible too since you can specify when exactly you want it to end, like when the beneficiary turns 23, two years after your death, and so forth.
There are definitely many things that you may want to consider before deciding whether you should prepare a Will or a Living Trust. According to the website of Peck Ritchey, LLC, this is because while the latter also offers the huge benefit of it being exempt from the probate process, it is still not outrightly recommended to everyone.
The National Safety Council, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, nongovernmental public service organization that promotes health and safety in the US by helping minimize the alarmingly high number of preventable injuries and deaths in working environments, homes and communities, records about 70, 000 pedestrians accidents in the US every year. From the given figure, about 4, 500 are fatal or end in the victim's death a few days following the accident.
Fatal accidents are usually more frequent in rural areas where vehicles can run at faster speeds due to lighter traffic, where pathways are poorly illuminated at night, and where there are usually no sidewalks where pedestrians can walk safely. In urban areas or cities, on the other hand, where pedestrian activities and the volume of cars are always high, pedestrian accidents are usually non-fatal.
Ensuring the safety of pedestrians is a major traffic concern for the simple reason that all Americans become pedestrians at certain times of the day. Besides a person walking, the term "pedestrian" also refers to anyone who is on foot, including someone running or jogging, or a person standing at a street corner. If a car driver can sustain severe injuries in an accident, how much more will a pedestrian, who has nothing, whatsoever, to protect his/her body from the impact caused by an approaching vehicle. Thus, an accident can easily result to severe injuries or, worse, untimely death.
While drivers play a major role in significantly reducing incidences of pedestrian accidents, some car manufacturers have taken the initiative of designing their new car models with the latest safety devices that will enable the car to detect the presence of pedestrians (and cyclists) meters ahead and fully stop the car (or slow it down), even without driver input, to either lessen the force of impact or totally eliminate the possibility of crashing into anyone or anything. These accident avoidance technologies include the Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake, the Forward Collision Warning system and the Automatic Braking system, which will automatically stop the car, if it senses that the vehicle ahead has suddenly stopped, to avoid collision.
Pursuing legal action to seek compensation for any kind of harm suffered in an accident is the right of anyone; it is also allowed under the law. Many cases are settled, however, even before these reach the courtroom, as liable parties rather decide to offer compensation to the victim and ask that the lawsuit be dropped in return. Many victims accept these seemingly trouble-free settlements, thinking, or being made to think by the liable party's legal counsel, that accepting the offered compensation totally favors them. In any form of settlement it remains essential that victims are represented by personal injury lawyers to make sure that their rights are fully defended and that the compensation they will receive will justly cover all the present and future damages caused by the injury.
If you dread the thought of going on a dental chair, don't worry; you are not alone. Most of us equate visits to the dentists as equivalent to a living nightmare with that awful drill and lots of pain, though experience has taught us that under the hands of a skilled dentist the pain is minimal. But there is no gainsaying how we feel; we still tense up and this makes the experience worse.
In response to this general if unreasoning dread of dentists, there are clinics that offer sedation dentistry to calm the most jumpy of patients. Sedation dentistry is not a specialty per se, although general practitioners and pediatric dentists typically go through several courses to train them in the use of pharmacological agents called sedatives designed to calm and relax patients.
A patient can choose the degree of sedation to which he or she will be reduced to. Minimal sedation leaves the patient awake and aware but calm. Moderate sedation reduces the patient to a semi-conscious state where the patient is awake but speech is slurred and events that happen during the sedation period may not be remembered. With deep sedation, the patient is placed in an unconscious state and will not respond to stimulus.
In general, sedation is accomplished orally, rectally, or through inhalation. The sedative may also be introduced into the central nervous system intravenously or intramuscularly. This will depend on the preferred method of the dentist and the patient, which will be discussed prior to sedation.
Sedation dentistry is ideal for specific patients as enumerated on the website of Dr. Sid K. Steadman D.D.S., such as those with physical limitations that preclude extended periods with the mouth open i.e. jaw muscle problems. Sedation will help relax the patient safely and sufficiently to carry out the necessary procedure.
Being charged with a traffic violation offense and slapped with a fine are already heavy penalties; these are not all, though, for there are still the demerit points that give drivers that added painful sting. Demerit points differ with the type and severity of the violation committed. While some violations are given 1 or 2 points demerit, others are given up to 6 points.
In some states, a total of 12 points demerit can result to suspension of driving privileges and higher car insurance premium. Attempting to elude an officer, DUI and reckless driving are violations that usually get the highest demerit points. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA), coincidentally, has also identified drunk-driving and reckless driving as among the major causes of injuries and death during car accidents; the rest are overspeeding, failure to wear a seatbelt and distracted driving. But just as it appears that the strict and consistent implementation of traffic laws directed against drunk drivers, reckless drivers and speedsters are finally earning favorable results, another violation is consistently making itself as the newest worst cause of driving accidents – cell phone use, whether texting or talking on a handheld or hands-free cell phone.
Cell phone use while behind the wheel is currently considered the worst and most dangerous kind of distracted driving and, on a daily basis, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 1,153 people are injured and 9 killed due to it. Due to the great risk cell phone use puts innocent motorists and pedestrians into, the state of New York, particularly, deemed it necessary to increase demerit points for violation of texting while driving ban from 3 to 5 (this change became effective on June 1, 2013).
States vary with regard to prohibition of cell phone use while driving. At least 44 states, including the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, and D.C., ban text messaging for all drivers (but not talking on the phone), while 37 states plus D.C. prohibit any form of cell phone use by teen and new drivers – the ones mostly involved in car crashes resulting to injury or death (based on CDC and NHTSA records).
Driving distraction, however, is never limited to cell phone use, whether using it to text or talk with someone. There are many other forms of distractions that almost all drivers are guilty of, but without even noticing it. Anything that takes one's eyes off the road, hand off the wheel, and/or mind off driving, like eating, talking with friends, talking on the phone (whether on a handheld or hands-free phone), adjusting a GPS or radio, applying make-up, and so forth, is a form of distraction.
An article on the website of law firm Williams Kherkher explains how a driving accident due to distractions, which are totally preventable, can suddenly change a person's (and his/her family's) life. An injury will also mean lost wages (due to inability to render work for a number of days) and medical bills. In relation to such, Williams Kherkher advises injured victims of car accidents to contact a personal injury lawyer, who can clearly help them in all legal concerns, including the possibility of being compensated by the liable party.
The term may sound complicated (anything that involves math sounds complicated), but in fact freight factoring is a pretty simple concept. You, as owner of a trucking company or independent trucker, sell your accounts receivable (invoices) to a third-party company called the factor for slightly less than the face value of the invoice. It's similar to rediscounting a postdated check; instead of getting $100 which is what the check is for, you get something like $90 but you get it at once.
There are many reasons why it may be a good idea to avail of freight factoring, but the main reason is to improve your cash flow without having to go through a long process as you would have to for a bank loan, for instance. Freight factoring companies such as TBS Factoring can typically let a trucker have the cash they need for operations within 24 hours of getting an invoice. Moreover, it is not considered debt because the invoices are in essence sold, not used as collateral, and the terms are usually short, between 30 to 90 days at most.
Independent truckers are especially vulnerable to tight pockets because they depend on what they collect not only to keep the business going but for their personal needs. When an invoice is due in 30 days that means the trucker needs to have cash from elsewhere to live on until the invoice becomes due, and even then there is no assurance the client will pay on time. In addition, independent truckers do the hauling themselves, so they are unlikely to have the reserves available to bigger operations where there is a continuous flow of money from invoices that mature one after another.
Of course, a savvy independent trucker will manage the cash when it does come in so that there is enough to continue operations and pay for expenses until the next invoice becomes due for payment without needing to have the money advanced. Sometimes, though, it just makes more sense to have the money on hand, such as when there is a chance to upgrade the business that will enable the trucker to take more or better contracts i.e. buy a bigger truck.
Personal injury laws can vary from state to state, therefore filing for a claim can require necessary research and information regarding the laws that would apply to your state and understand how it would affect your claim. There are states that follow the shared fault for accident and injury cases. It is important to understand how this type of rule or law will affect your compensation, otherwise you might not even have any compensation.
The state of Texas follows the "modified comparative negligence" law, where the amount of compensation will depend on the percent of fault of each party. In layman's terms, this means that the total amount of compensation that will be awarded will be reduced by the amount equal to the percent of fault that the person is legally held liable to. When you have been carry more than 50 percent of the blame for the accident, you will not have legal rights to ask for compensation from the other at-fault parties. If this is still confusing to you, or you would want to argue your case in court, then it is advised to find an Austin personal injury lawyer to help you sort out and gather evidence for your claim in court. Meanwhile, the state of Wisconsin follows a similar personal injury law, where they fall under the shared fault or comparative fault system. Despite being partially to be blamed for the accident, you can still collect compensation form the other party involved for the injuries and damages suffered.
There are other similarities between two states, but what a Sheboygan personal injury lawyer should point out is that Wisconsin has a three-year statute of limitations for filing a personal injury claim, while Texas only has two years from when the injury occurred. Missing the statute of limitations would mean forfeiting your right for compensation. Personal injury claims that are filed after the statute of limitation closes will not be entertained or heard in court.
Personal injury laws can take time and additional expense, therefore it is important to hire the right type of lawyers who will properly represent your case in court. Because there are certain differences in state laws and each case is unique in its own, the right lawyers would make or break the case.
Accidents do happen, but when they occur within the workplace, the damages may not only be for the injured worker but also the company as well. Companies have lost millions of dollars after being filed with personal injury lawsuits by workers who have been injured during their employment. Although these worker's are covered with workers' compensation, the company may still be held liable if they neglected their duty of ensuring the safety and wellbeing of their workers.
As reported on the website of Scudder & Hedrick, PLLC, despite the recent updates in ensuring workplace safety, there are still companies that tend to disobey safety rules and regulations given by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) that have lead to many life-threatening or life-altering injuries or sickness. Worker's compensation does help in providing financial assistance to injured workers, but they may not be enough to cover for the expense or the accident was purely preventable and occurred due blatant neglect of worker's safety. Worker's compensation is protection for both the worker (to cover for expenses while injured) and the company (to avoid being filed a personal injury claim). When no settlement on the worker's compensation is agreed upon, then the injured worker can file for a personal injury claim.
Because personal injury claims are a daunting task to prove in court, most of these cases are settled outside of court before they are actually heard. After gathering the necessary evidence for a personal injury claim, find a lawyer who can properly fight and represent your claim. They can also help in calculating the amount of compensation that could be settled, along the special damages, past economic losses, and future losses.
Personal injury lawsuits damage a company's reputation, and could cause them to lose a lot of money as well as waste important time. This is why as part or protecting themselves from employers who only wishes to milk them through personal injury lawsuits, WorkSTEPS recommends having effective pre-employment testing and evaluation. These examinations help in ensuring that the right person will be hired for the specific job, lowering that chances of accidents in the workplace and promote a more productive workplace environment.

Best Local Roaster (2011)
Novo Coffee
Herb, Jake and Joe Brodsky are passionate about getting the best cup of coffee possible into the hands of consumers. And so they spend a lot of time forging relationships, searching for beans and perfecting the processing of Novo Coffee. Their search for perfection sends them to Ethiopia, Nicaragua, Indonesia and many other corners of the world, but then they bring their finds back to their warehouse just north of downtown Denver, where they use a custom-built roaster to finish the coffee for packaging. The father-and-sons team is obsessive about quality control, checking for flaws and roasting in small batches; the Brodskys are also willing educators and ardent about building the coffee community, conducting on-premise cuppings with the public to explain the nuances of beans, roasts and brewing methods. But a cup of Novo coffee speaks for itself: It's rich, complex, heady and absolutely delicious.

Centro Port Pirie shopper rewards launch
In-store posters, mailed flyer, press and other guerilla tactics were used to get the town talking. What is Ppsst? All pre-launch material had no Centro branding, to add to the intrigue. Everything directed people to the mini web site which had a countdown and area to submit e-mail and address. Upon launch an e-mail was sent to everyone who had joined explaining that Ppsst (Port Pirie Secret Saver Time) was an online rewards scheme for Centro customers.

Advancing health through science, education and medicine
Blood doping has been achieved by either infusing red blood cells or by administering the drug erythropoietin to artificially increase red blood cell mass. Blood doping can improve an athlete's ability to perform submaximal and maximal endurance exercise. In addition, blood doping can help reduce physiologic strain during exercise in the heat and perhaps at altitude. Conversely, blood doping is associated with risks that can be serious and impair athletic performance. These known risks are amplified by improper medical controls, as well as the interaction between dehydration with exercise and environmental stress. Finally, the medical risks associated with blood doping have been estimated from carefully controlled research studies, and the medically unsupervised use of blood doping will increase these risks. It is the position of the American College of Sports Medicine that any blood doping procedure used in an attempt to improve athletic performance is unethical, unfair, and exposes the athlete to unwarranted and potentially serious health risks.

I am pretty certain this does not belong here, but I tried the official forums and it did not seem to help me.
I am looking specifically for the perks and certain choices for a RP build.
My current courier, Alicia is a descendant of the Enclave. My problem is what perks I should take. I have the tagged skills of Energy Weapons, Repair, and Science, and might take Tagged for either survival or Medicine. Level 2 perks is always RP for me, so start at level 4.
The choices I need to know are the endgame choices for the DLCS and strangely what this character type should do about the BoS.

The PRTCM is an Irish-based professional body founded in 1983 to promote and protect the professional interests and medical standards of fully qualified practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine throughout Ireland and in the UK, thereby to foster the highest quality of TCM health-care for the public.
It was the first such professional body in Ireland whose members are recognised, for the provision of Acupuncture treatments, by VHI Healthcare, Quinn Health, Aviva and the other principal health insurance providers.
This site is designed to provide members of the public with the information they require to select a fully qualified and fully insured practitioner of Acupuncture TCM or, indeed, one of the other TCM therapy options such as Chinese Herbal Medicine or Medical Qigong.
Details about each of the main TCM therapies is provided, as well as information about finding a practitioner, making an appointment, and attending for treatment.
Dear Members, With the anniversary of the Nepal earthquake, Nepal has been in the news recently. We thought you might like to know about the Barefoot Clinics project who create free acupuncture clinics and train acupuncturists in Nepal. Below is a letter you can display in your practice if you wish to participate in the […]
Since the arrival of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the West, pain alleviation or relief has been one of the regularly observed benefits of treatment with needles (Acupuncture TCM). A client with a main complain of, say, lower back pain, would, on arrival at the clinic of a PRTCM member, be given a full Chinese Medical diagnosis […]
We are pleased to announce the launch of a Facebook page for the PRTCM (The Professional Register of Traditional Chinese Medicine). The PRTCM is the oldest Register of Practitioners of Acupuncture and TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) in Ireland, founded in 1983. It represents practitioners who are fully qualified in one or more TCM specialist fields: […]
Acupuncture is part of an ancient and sophisticated form of medical treatment called Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) which originated in China but has increasingly spread throughout the world.
It is important to realise that acupuncture is only a part of Chinese medicine - to imagine that Acupuncture is TCM is as mistaken as to imagine that, say, surgery is western medicine.
In the hands of a fully qualified professional practitioner the use of acupuncture TCM is effective, entirely safe and free of any harmful side-effects. It has stood the test of time over thousands of years and has not been found wanting.
It is safe to say that there is no sick person who cannot be helped by TCM. The extent of this help will depend on a number of considerations.
There is no limitation in terms of age, sex, or condition regarding acupuncture treatment. The very young or the extremely old can be treated.
The scope and range of ailments amenable to TCM care is enormous. It treats people who complain of a deficiency or break down in their health. It can focus on physical, psychological, emotional or even spiritual disorders with equal effect.
... That Traditional Chinese Medicine is the most widely utilized healing system on this planet, and one of the oldest practicing forms of medicine known to date?
... That acupuncture's use for certain conditions has been endorsed by the National Health Service of the United Kingdom, the United States National Institutes of Health and the World Health Organization.
