Some Kids Make Money Online Testing New Video Games
There are numerous "making money on-line" ideas for those who wish to earn some money on the web, but about the most popular ones amongst teenagers and young boys is beta game testing.
The fact that kids and many teenagers make money on-line is nothing new. Lots of kids are earning money on the web and doing great too.
But earning money from home as a beta game tester is a great job that is worth doing if you can get one.
Many young kids are of the opinion that to work as a video game tester, all you need is to love playing video games and have the knack to spend several hours a day playing, but this is not so. There are learning curves and processes involved in game testing.
What is Video Game Testing?
For those of you who don't quite understand what this means, video game testing involves testing beta video games before they are released to the public for sale.
Testers are supposed to test "yet to be released games" for glitches, errors and bugs that may occur or exist in the games.
As a game tester, you will be evaluating the gameplay and the quality of its sound and graphics. You are also expected to share your views on whether the game was enjoyable or not.
The idea behind this is to ensure that the game works perfectly as it is meant to before it can be released to the millions of buyers all over the world.
One of the perks of working on-line as a game tester is that you get to play the games first before anyone else does but things can get monotonous very quickly.
Playing and testing the same game for hours can become tiresome or even nerve racking, and like many internet based jobs, things can get repetitive.
But then playing video games and getting paid for it is many video game playing youngsters dream, and most will do almost anything to "land" this exciting though demanding job.
Is it Easy Making Money Testing Games?
Yes and No.
You may love playing video games and probably spend eight to ten hours a day playing.
But if you are under sixteen, it is almost impossible, but you can start off by learning and interacting with others of similar interests.
Yes, you may think you are a good candidate for beta game testing job openings, but getting video game tester jobs isn't as easy as many may feel because being a high paying and enjoyable job;
- The competition is stiff. Every kid wants to be a game tester but job openings are few.
- Many game development industries prefer that you work on site.
- You may have to possess ample computer skills, though requirements may have become lenient these days.
- You need to be current about the latest high-tech devices and video games on the market.
- Have the skills of quick adaptation to the different strategies, systems, and techniques involved in video game playing.
- And most importantly, your English must be impeccable and fluent because you will have to write very detailed reports.
These are just some of the requirements of becoming a video game tester but it also means that most enthusiastic but self-disciplined players can become a video game tester and receive an income for services rendered.
Many companies that do employ may make you wait for a number of weeks before hiring you.
But even though many kids have been lucky to get a slot in this great industry, it's very hard (though not impossible) to get one if you are under eighteen.
How to Become a Video Game Tester
Making money on-line as a game tester is interesting especially if you are a video gaming enthusiast, but it's a lot of hard work and you may have tight schedules and deadlines to meet.
But it's still fun if you can get the job and earn money on-line doing what you love best.

It is essential to learn a bit about game testing before thinking of asking for employment.
Reading books and searching on-line for further information goes a long way in preparing you for something that's worth making a career out of.
It is good to know that the video game testing industry is highly lucrative with income ranging from $10 to $20 an hour.
Other than these, you don't need much more to become a video game tester. You need to get (or share) a computer with good internet access and some spare time.
What you'll be doing is playing games, and while playing, detect irregularities, unwanted electronic signals, bugs, glitches, technical problems, etc., and submitting what you find to the video games manufacturers. That's it!
Sounds hard? Not really, because you don't need experience as such, nor do you need a BA degree in marketing to do this.
And if you are smart and resourceful you can do this without even having to finish high school. And you can keep making money on-line constantly because the more games you can test, the more money you will earn.
The game development companies that will employ you to play and test their video games will give you the latest and greatest games that are yet to hit the stores.
They do have programmers who abound in their industry, but programmers are not game players in any way.
And as companies find it too expensive to hire full-time video game testers to test their products, they, therefore, employ youngsters and pay them well to test and play their newly developed games.
Testimonials from Young Video Game Testers

New York, NY.

Viryabo, I need a game tester job, I am homeschooling so I only do school for like 4 hrs so I get off at like lunch which gives me a giant mobility for any possible game time,I have been interested in video game testing and I can play for hours and my attention span to catch a glitch is pretty good so bugs are no problem. My usual days go from 8:30 am to about 12:00 pm and I could wake up at 6:00 am and play to 7:30 pm, I usually eat at around 8:00-9:00 and I'm not sure if it is true but most websites say that they don't care when you get the testing done but it is prefer it to be done in about a month and that depends on you're pay and i don't know if that is the same here. Sum up: I can play, I can stay up,and i can Test

hi im 13 and i can play what ever i want and but i like to ply xbox 360 the most and i play ever day and my parents have to yell at me to get me off
I only ps3,dsi,xbox 360,wii
I was able to land a game tester job making $12 per hour my first 3 months and then my pay when up to $15 per hour because I was able to provide them with quality work thanks to what these membership sites online teach you.
I tried the old school way of getting a video game tester position with one of the local game developers in my area but I never got called in for an interview.
These online game tester websites are worth the information they provide, and I think it's funny how everyone still talks about these places like their scams.
The top rated one has been online for 5 years helping gamers out everyday. So hope that helps if you had any doubts.

I would like to let people know that I've gotten a testing job with 5*h*ce**. and that many companies are now hiring persons over the age of 18. I believe capcom is one of the more notable companies.
In another note, in the united states, it is very much possible that a youth under the age of 16 can get a simple job with their parent's consent. I know this as i an only 16 an have had a job since I was 14.
By the way video game testing jobs require A strong vocabulary and correct use of grammar. That is why most younger people like myself would not get hired.

Thank you for this informative site, i am a frustrated mother of an 8 year old. My son is only allowed to play video games during the weekend and on a non busy day he can play for 3-5 hours. In two 3 hour sessions he can clear a game. Is this Normal? I know every parent thinks their child is special, I am a realistic person, although he is adorable, I just don't know enough about games. We have x-box, PS3, WIi, DSI and PS2. I am sure I make most parents cringe but we let him play Call of Duty, Red Dead redemption, Modern Warfare, James Bond eagle eye, halo, Simpsons and ect. No matter the level he's done it just 2 days! He's been doing it since he was 4, so we have became pros a game renting since the challenge is a breeze. I don't think a game tester is place for an 8 year old, I just don't know if we should be trying improve a skill I find a tad annoying but something he is good at and enjoys doing. I am not game savvy, so clearly he doesn't get it from me, I just don't know how to challenge him or direct him for a possible gaming future!

hey I'm looking for a game tester job (go figure) and I was wondering if there are any sites that you could refer me to that you trust or any tips as to help me on this since my parents are telling me not to trust any of the game tester job sites that are out there even though there have been some that I feel are acceptable.
Can anyone help me out Im really into this type of job and looking hard for employment but i cant seem to find one for my age (14) so please can someone tell me hoe to get this job
Hi, I'm 14 years old and have just finished building my own gaming PC, and I was wondering if anyone could link me to, or tell me about a site for game testing for under 18s.
I spend a fair amount of time playing games, and any opportunity to get played for it, and help the gaming community would be much appreciated.
Jeez, some of the kids commenting here really can't type well. Either that or they're not good at English. You know it isn't all just fun and games you have to have some English skills because you have to write well detailed reports. You aren't just playing the game you have to analyze it and see where the bugs are or where are the rough patches and then report them to the company. I don't think that this kind of job is for 11 or 13 year olds. I think maybe you should explain that in your article above. This is coming from a 17 year old who has tested and now I make small games with a group of friends. (we're just learning the programs right now). Learning to program is a pain in the butt, but I think rather than small kids looking for jobs in video game testing, I think they should be encouraged to learn more about the games they love. You guys are to young. It bothers me just how many of you believe it is just getting paid to play when it isn't. Well those are just my two cents.
Is this Actually real? I'm 19 and I love Video Games and i dropped out o School when i was 18, I didn't want to but i had to. To be able to help my Mom and i Promise i did't want to but it was my only choice and now i'm reading about this and shocked me.
Can i really Get paid for something i enjoy doing? This will be Helpful for me if i could play and get paid while i'm finishing my GED and i am really good with Computers and Consoles.
Your blog site is really insanely impressive! I am certainly thankful I had been able to successfully come across such proficiency on the web. Reg Zooka
does anybody know were to go to actually get a job like this because im old enough but i don't know how to find a job to do
As you can see at the top left hand corner that my name is Eric. Im 13 years old and have a deep desire to get a job and make good money fast. I play video games on a regular basis and have a tendency to get stuff done cleanly and quickly. I had my eye on video game testing for quite a while now and also thinking about going further than that in the gaming industry such as coming up with ideas and things they need to fix or put in. As if they can use my imagination to use. For now video game testing. Im hoping to get some information on where I can start and not whether im too young or not.
Thank you for the valuable information
im 13 and i was wondering if there were any spots open for this job. im a girl and i love video games have a nice day
Hello , Im a 15 year old teen that would like to get into the game testing industry. I have good teamwork and also leadership communication skills. The consoles that I have are an Ipod 4th gen.

Hey! My name is Gloria and I'm 16. I am not exactly interested in video game beta testing. I'm more interested in like IMVU or Second life; Virtual worlds and such. I'm also interested in different types of software like music production, videography, photography and graphic design as well as art studio software and ect. I was wondering if you guys could help. I have been looking everywhere!
I'm 24 and have been searching everywhere for an online game testing or game reviewing position. Are there any specific sites to check?
Hi guys
I REALLY want to be a game tester as I love video games so much.
I'm one of those people who 100% complete games without any guides so yeah. You can probably see why I want to be a game tester. However my game time is limited because of school and cadets (yep I go to a military school) please help!
Hi there,
I read all of your post and since I've worked for Nexon, I know what is meaning working as a Quality Assurance in a serious place. It's not just playing the game... Sometimes it could be very tiring, especially when you are forced to test a game that you don't like for over 1 or more years. Otherwise, I wish to you all a huge luck for your future experience as a Game Tester/QA.
I just wanna know where to place an application, or jobs that are hiring.
Hi I am twelve, and I was wondering what sites are hiring now and if they would be open to me.

San Francisco, California – (The Hosting News) – August 7, 2007 – Data center developer and operator, 365 Main, has released the results of its investigation that detail the root cause behind a back-up power generator failure, during a PG and E power outage last week.
365 Main's San Francisco data center was impacted by a power surge caused when transformer breakers at a local PG and E power station unexpectedly opened. PG and E has still not determined what caused the breakers to open, resulting in approximately 40 percent of customers in the facility losing power to their equipment for up to 45 minutes.
365 Main is sharing the discoveries of its investigation with other Hitec customers. In addition, Hitec has expanded its preventative maintenance procedures as a direct result of discoveries made during the 365 Main investigation.
Chris Dolan, President and CEO of 365 Main commented, "365 Main has a track record of providing customers with data centers that are considered to be among the world's finest. We extend our sincere apologies to customers who were impacted by this incident. Addressing customer concerns is our top priority. In the days since the incident occurred, we have identified and corrected the root source of the problem and are taking steps to prevent this type of problem from happening again. We are also making our comprehensive findings available to other data centers to try to prevent the same problem from recurring elsewhere."
Typically when a power outage occurs, the outage triggers 365 Main's rigorously maintained and tested back-up diesel generators to start-up and take over providing power supply to customers. 365 Main's San Francisco facility has ten 2.1 megawatt back-up generators to be used in the event of a loss of utility power. Eight primary generators can successfully power the building, with two generators available on stand-by in case there are any failures with the primary eight.
However, following the power outage last week, three of 365 Main's 10 back-up power generators, manufactured by Hitec, failed to complete their start sequence. A complete investigation of the incident began immediately.
Within hours of the incident, an international team of specialists was deployed to 365 Main's San Francisco data center facility to join on-site technicians and begin systematically testing the generators in search of a root cause. After days of thorough testing around the clock, the team discovered a weakness in an essential component of the back-up generator system known as a DDEC (Detroit Diesel Electronic Controller).
The team discovered a setting in the DDEC that was not allowing the component to correctly reset its memory. Erroneous data left in the DDEC's memory subsequently caused misfiring or engine start failures when the generators were called on to start during the power outage on July 24.
The investigation team discovered DDEC issues on each of the failed Hitec units and were able to successfully simulate failure. A fix was introduced by altering the timing of a command to the DDEC component, allowing more time between the engine shut-down command and the DDEC reset command. Once this fix was introduced, the Hitec generators successfully passed more than 50 consecutive start-up sequence tests without incident.
The testing methodology was performed by Hitec specialists along with 365 Main's chief technician and staff. Specialists from Cupertino Electric were present during all testing, and EYP Mission Critical Facilities will provide independent verification of the findings the week of 8/6/07.
365 Main has implemented the DDEC fix in its San Francisco and El Segundo facilities. Of the five data centers in 365 Main's portfolio, the San Francisco and El Segundo facilities are the only ones with Hitec generators containing DDECs. All other facilities feature other brands of generators or have different models of Hitecs.
In the wake of the outage, 365 Main published an apology to customers and daily updates directly from the investigation team meeting minutes, allowing customers and the public at large to track progress. A complete archive of these updates and more details about today's update are available at: www.365main.com/status_update.html.
Glenn Ellis, president and CEO of Hitec USA, also commented: Our top priority is taking steps to prevent this type of unforeseen incident from occurring again. We sincerely apologize to 365 Main and its customers that our generators failed to deliver the continuous power as designed.
Since its inception over five years ago, 365 Main has delivered 99.9967 percent power uptime to customers across its five-data-center portfolio. This includes the outage experienced in San Francisco last week. 365 Main's San Francisco facility has delivered 99.9942 percent uptime to customers during the last five years, inclusive of last week's outage.
As part of their service level agreements with 365 Main, 365 Main customers receive rent abatements (refunds) in the event that electrical power is dropped in the section(s) of the data center where their servers are located. 365 Main is honoring all service level agreements with affected customers.
Recently, 365 Main participated in The Green Grid's global nonprofit consortium of energy ecosystem technology, joining other companies and professionals, dedicated to advancing energy efficiency. Formed earlier this year, The Green Grid is committed to driving new user-centric metrics, technology standards and best practices for use by data center managers worldwide. Membership is open to any company developing products and technologies aimed at the data center market, as well as to information technology professionals tasked with data center operations. Member companies currently sitting on the organization's board of directors include HP, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, AMD, APC, Dell, Rackable Systems, SprayCool, Sun Microsystems and VMware.
The Green Grid's key areas of focus include:
- Defining meaningful, user-centric models and metrics

|Yasuki Tsanumi
|Yasuki Nobuto,
Yasuki Jiriki
|Yasuki Daimyo
Yasuki Tsanumi was the daimyo responsible for the Yasuki family breaking away from the Crane Clan during the Crane-Crab War. After the break, he had to enlist ronin to protect Yasuki business interests from the Crane. [1] [2] His family estate, Yasuki Yashiki, became the capital of the Yasuki. [3]
Demeanor Edit
Kiringu was a peaceful man, and he was smart enough not to meet the Crane on their terms, the courts. In an act the Crane mocked as weakness, Kiringu quietly endured the insults and jeers from the Crane while continuing to assimilate himself and his family as important Crab vassals. [4]
Children Edit
Kiringu had two sons, Yasuki Nobuto and Yasuki Jiriki. When his second son reclaimed a Crane village as part of their lands, the Kakita ordered a counterattack. The Crab Clan supported the newcomers, so the Crane were forced to withdraw, rather than escalate the conflict into open war. Kiringu bestowed the vassal family name Nobuto upon his first son and charged his descendants with maintaining strong ties to the Crab armies. [5]
Shrine Edit
A shrine honoring his name was built at Yasuki Defiance. In the annals of Crane history, few villains were so despised as him. To the Crab, the heroic Yasuki Kiringu was the skilled negotiator who freed the persecuted Yasuki from their unjust treatment at the hands of the Crane. [6]

Biochemical and haematological assessment of toxic effects of the leaf ethanol extract of
Basic research
The toxic effects were assessed by quantifying liver enzymes such as serum aspartate amino transferase (AST), alanine amino transferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total serum protein and liver weight. Effects on haematological parameters were assessed by analysis of parked cell volume (PCV), red blood cell count (RBC), white blood cells (WBC) and haemoglobin (Hb) concentrations. Histopathological studies were done on the liver and kidneys.
The extract caused significant increase in serum activity of alanine amino transferase and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels at the dose of 1000 mg/kg. Other biochemical and haematological parameters were not affected at lower doses. Conversely, the liver weight was not affected after eight weeks of treatment at the dose levels studied. The organs obtained for pathological study, were structurally unchanged under histopathological evaluation at lower doses but inflammatory and necrotic features were observed at doses ≥ 1000 mg/kg.
The results indicate that the leaf ethanol extract of
Although, the use of the plant is discouraged in heart and kidney disorders due to its water retention capabilities, however, its anti inflammatory and probable immune boosting properties make it relevant in the traditional treatment of urinary tract infection, nephritis, cystitis and prevention of renal stones formation. In addition, it is also a common home remedy for obesity and reduction of itching in insect bites
With reference to herb-drug interactions, Parsley has been known to interfere with warfarin (Coumadin) treatment due to it's high content of vitamin K
It is pertinent to note that the ingestion of the plant is toxic to many domestic animals including horses, cats and dogs due to the action of furocoumarins causing symptoms such as photosentisization, ulcerative and exudative dermatitis and ocular toxicity that may require veterinary consultation
Consideration should also be giving to sources of plant cultivation due to the fact that resorption of heavy metals by the plants has been observed in soil irrigated with untreated waste water making the plant a potential source of heavy metal toxicity
Phytochemically, the leaves and seeds of
While phytochemical and pharmacological experiments with
The experimental protocol and procedures used in this study were approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology Osogbo Campus, Osun State, Nigeria; and conform to the
Plant materials
Preparation of plant extract
Administration of the extract
Separate groups of animals were given oral doses of the extract at 10, 100 and 1000 mg/kg body weight daily for 8 weeks. A control group was treated daily with 2 ml of the 5% Tween 80 in saline.
Clinical signs and death were observed daily, while weekly body weight was recorded for each animal. Blood samples were obtained after eight weeks of oral administration of the under light anaesthesia from the orbital sinus using heparinised microhaematocrit tubes according to the method of
The activity of aspartate amino transferase (AST) and alanine amino transferase (ALT) were determined colorimetrically at 546 nm using a standard method
Orbital sinus blood sample was obtained weekly in EDTA for haematological examination. The parameters measured were hemoglobin Concentration (Hb), packed cell volume (PCV), red blood cells (RBCs), platelets count white blood cells (WBCs), differential wbcs counts and erythrocytes indices; mean corpuscular volume (MCV), using automated Sysmex KX-21 haematology analyzer.
All animals were sacrificed by exsanguinations after light ether inhalation anaesthesia at the end of the experiment. The animals were subjected to post-mortem examination with collection of samples from the liver, heart, kidneys spleen pancreas, lymph nodes, stomach, intestines, Payer's patches, urinary bladder and lungs. The tissues were fixed in 10% neutral buffered formalin for at least 48 h. 4–5 μm paraffin sections were processed and stained with haematoxylin and eosin for microscopic examination using established protocols
Data analysis
Data were expressed as mean ± SEM. Statistical analyses was performed by one-way, ANOVA followed by Dunnett's test. P values < 0.05 were considered significant.
There were no abnormal signs of toxicity or death recorded after the eight weeks of treatment at the dose range of 10-1000 mg/kg body weight. Body weight gradually increased at these doses comparable with that of control (Table
The activity of aspartate amino transferase (AST), showed no significant change in all dose levels studied. At doses of 10 or 100 mg/kg body weight compared to the control, there was also no significant change in the activity of ALT. However, a significant increase was observed at the dose of 1000 mg/kg (Table
BUN level at the dose of 1000 mg/kg was significantly higher than in the control; however there was no significant difference at the doses of 10 and 1000 mg/kg compared to the control. There was no significant difference in the values of TP and ALB at all dose levels studied (Table
There were no significant differences in the erythrocytic parameters. PCV was not affected by all the dose levels studied. There was also no significant difference in haemoglobin concentration, RBC and MCV at all dose levels. There was however significant differences in WBC values at doses of 100 and 1000 mg/kg compared to that of 10 mg/kg and control. In the differential leukocyte count, neutrophils showed significant difference at the dose levels of 100 and 1000 mg/kg compared to the values at the dose of 10 mg/kg and control, while lymphocyte, monocyte and eosinophil counts showed no significant difference at all dose levels compared to control (Table
There were no overt pathological lesions at lower dose levels studied. However, at doses ≥ 1000 mg/kg, histopathological changes including inflammation and necrosis were observed in both kidney and liver tissues (Figures

Daily oral doses of the extract up to 100 mg/kg did not cause any obvious clinical abnormalities or death after eight weeks of treatment.
The estimation of some biochemical parameters such as the activities of enzymes in tissues and body fluids plays a major role in disease investigation, diagnosis and liver toxicity
BUN values and ALT activity at a dose of 1000 mg/kg was significantly increased compared to the controls. The significant change in plasma ALT activity with insignificant change in plasma AST at the dose of 1000 mg/kg indicates that the extract caused mild changes in the liver. ALT is a cytoplasmic enzyme and increase in plasma is an indication of mild injuries caused by drugs to the liver. Liver injury is characterized as hepatocellular when there is predominant elevation of the ALT, while AST is a mitochondria enzyme whose increase activity in plasma reflects severe tissue injuries
In the present study, the extract caused increase in ALT at a dose of 1000 mg/kg with AST and ALP activities falling within the normal limits at all dose levels. This indicates that the liver injury at a dose of 1000 mg/kg observed as reflected by an increase in ALT activity is hepatocellular and not cholestatic or intrabiliary in origin
The observed dose- related significant increase in BUN values at a dose of 1000 mg/kg suggests that the extract at this oral dose level would cause renal damage. Hypo-proteinaemia a common finding in liver damage
Furthermore, there were no discernable lesions at the dose up to 100 kg/mg. These findings further showed that the effect of the extract on target tissues namely liver and kidney as shown by biochemical data, is insignificant at the dose levels used. Therefore, the observed significant increase in plasma levels of ALT and BUN at 1000 mg/kg might have been caused by sub-cellular tissue changes.
It is plausible to infer that the ethanol extract of
It is therefore expedient to advise that caution should be exercised in the use of Parsley in treatment of ailments to avoid overdosing bearing in mind the challenge of standardised dosing in herbal medicine due to paucity of information on pharmaco-genetics and pharmaco-dynamics of herbal preparations. In addition, consideration should be given to the potential toxicity of ingestion of Parsley with allopathic medication with serotonin activity. Furthermore, ingestion of parsley should be discouraged in pregnancy, lactating mothers and in individuals on opiods, lithium salts, diuretics and warfarin therapy due to potential drug-herb interaction
These results indicate that the leaf ethanol extract of

Nkomazi Game Reserve
The Okavango Delta is an inland delta formed where the Okavango River meets the basin of the Kalahari Desert. Once part of the ancient lake Makgadikgadi, the Okavango delta is home to diverse ecosystems and a plethora of wildlife. Contrary to popular belief, it is not the largest inland delta in the world but it was named one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa in 2013. Chief's Island, the largest of the islands in this flat delta region, plays home to much of the resident animal life that includes leopard, wildebeest, lion, kudu, rhinos and warthog, to name but a few. The endangered African Wild Dog is also found here, along with over 400 species of birds and over 70 species of fish. The lechwe antelope is the most abundant in this region.
The greenery in the delta can be attributed to the fact that the delta is an oasis and can support the growth of plant life. It is truly one of the most spectacularly beautiful places in the world and it's no wonder that it's considered one of the most rewarding safari destinations in Africa. Experience the magic and wonder this continent has to offer on an expertly-guided safari, where you'll discover the perfect opportunity to connect with the land and all its resplendent fauna and flora. Photographic opportunities are endless.

On the possibility for synthesizing dihydrotriazolothiadiazoles by condensation of 4-amino-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones with aromatic aldehydes

Regardless of the conditions, the condensation of 4-amino-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiones with aromatic aldehydes afforded the corresponding hydrazones as the only product. Both initial amines and resulting hydrazones exist as the thione rather than thiol tautomer. In no case bicyclic 5,6-dihydro[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazoles that are isomeric to the hydrazones were detected. DFT quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP/6-31+g(d,p) level of theory with full geometry optimization showed that the hydrazone structure in methanol and DMF is more stable than the bicyclic isomer by 19–23 kcal/mol, which completely excluded the possibility for such cyclization. The thione tautomer of the hydrazones is more stable than the thiol structure by 11–13 kcal/mol. © 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.

The content of ATP in scalp hair bulbs in humans was measured in the hair roots from 15 healthy volunteers. Light and electron microscopy confirmed the presence of outer and an inner root sheaths in the root of pulled out anagen hair. Incubation of samples in buffer solution led to extraction of ATP, which was measured by the chemiluminescent method. Mechanic disintegration of hair bulbs and their freezing-defrosting did not increase ATP output. The results of microscopy indicated that ATP extraction procedure was associated with separation of the outer radical sheath from the inner one without impairing the structure of the inner sheath. The mean content of ATP was 12±2 pmol per bulb. The use of pulled out hair bulbs for ATP measurements simplified the procedure as involved no surgical removal of follicles. © 2014 Springer Science+Business Media.

Now it will look this on the client: ERROR 08004: DERBY SQL error: SQLCODE: -1, SQLSTATE: 08004, SQLERRMC: Connection authentication failure occurred. Either the supplied credentials were invalid, or the database uses a password encryption scheme which is not compatible with the strong password substitution security mechanism.

Insurance Solutions Wants You to Know
REPRINTED FROM FULL THROTTLE MAGAZINE (cover story)
By: Joe Turley
Owning a motorcycle today has become a much bigger responsibility than it used to be. The confusion of what to choose and how to protect that investment can overwhelm even the most knowledgeable people. Insurance Solutions, located in Mooresville, NC, wants to help riders in North Carolina and South Carolina by offering the best insurance coverage available. You may think you already have the best coverage, but before you decide that, read on. One of the most curious quirks of insurance is that it does not afford medical coverage to the operator of a motorcycle. Did you know that this varies from state to state?
Insurance Solutions would like to urge more people to encourage the state legislature to change this and allow insurance providers in North Carolina to at least give riders the option for this coverage. South Carolina residents now have this option. Also be aware that the uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM / UIM) option is the most important thing that a motorcyclist can have. Since it covers injury to the operator and passenger of the motorcycle in the event of an accident with an under or uninsured vehicle, you should always purchase the highest level of protection that is available.
Secondly, if anything were to happen to your motorcycle, the NADA appraisal guide is used to determine the value of that bike. This means that if you add any extras to your motorcycle, you must supply your agent with a list of receipts or an appraisal from an authorized motorcycle dealership along with pictures in order for the extras to be covered by your policy. Anyone living in your household that operates the bike must be listed on the policy as an operator for it to be covered in the event of an accident while they are operating it.
Also, even though most all dealers will call your insurance agency to let them know you have purchased a motorcycle, you are ultimately responsible to call them as well and follow up to make sure that all drivers are listed and assuring that any additions made to the bike are listed with them. If this information is not supplied to the agency within thirty days of purchase, your motorcycle may not be completely covered, or covered at all.
Now, I know that the comfort and convenience of having the same insurance agent covering your vehicle for so many years makes it easy to assume they will take the best care of your bike, but we would like you to make a call to them and check on exactly what your coverage consists of and then give Insurance Solutions a call to compare your current coverage with what Insurance Solutions has to offer.
Insurance Solutions specializes in motorcycle insurance coverage and works with several companies across the nation to make sure you get the most security for your ride. At Insurance Solutions, they are not paying famous actors, crazy squirrels, or even animated lizards to do their talking for them. They want you to call them directly to answer any questions you may have and get your free quote now. Besides, where do you think the money comes from to pay for all those high priced commercials? My guess would be all the monthly premiums paid in by people who aren't as educated on insurance as they should be.
In closing, I would like to remind you that by making a free phone call to get a free quote for coverage on your motorcycle, you are under no obligation to anyone. Whether it be a Harley-Davidson, a Custom made just for you, or a four wheeler you may use for hunting, the good folks at Insurance Solutions want you to know that whatever you ride, THEY WILL COVER IT!
Whether you live in North Carolina or South Carolina, you owe it to yourself to make that call and find out how to get the most protection for your ride. You can meet the Insurance Solutions staff at many of the motorcycle events throughout both North and South Carolina meeting, greeting and educating people on the business they are so passionate about. You can also go by and see them in person at 103 N. Church Street in historic downtown Mooresville (NC) or give them a call at either 704-664-9495 or 1-800-852-7365. Don't forget, we are MOTORCYCLE INSURANCE EXPERTS and we also ride, too.

Quotes of the week
"I have concerns like all headteachers, not about change, but about the pace of change and the degree of uncertainty because what we are doing is budget-driven and that's not the best driver." - Rory Mackenzie, who retired last week after 16 years as head of Edinburgh's Balerno High
"The request seemed to come from a completely different era. I thought there must be some mistake and Opera North would support me by finding a way round this completely outdated hysteria." - Billy Elliot writer Lee Hall, whose opera Beached was pulled after a primary school objected to references by a gay character to his sexuality.

11th Annual Riding Into History
Concours d' Elegance
by John E Adams
About the Book
Riding Into History has been hosted annually at the World Golf Village Hall of Fame in St. Augustine Florida for 11 years raising over $220,000 for various charities with an average of 350-400 world class classic motorcycles from all over the nation on display.
In this edition as with my recent Concours d'Elegance publication, when available I display two images of the same motorcycle together. I do handcraft each of my images and although I shot many more they just did not meet my personal quality standard. The crowds did prohibit me from producing quality images of every bike in the event, which was my goal but I still feel I did get a get a good mix of the field and am already excited about getting out again next year to try out some new stuff.
