The Great Migration
The Great Migration
Families began migrating abroad in enormous numbers because of the political and religious discontent in England. Often faced with persecution and starvation in England, the possibilities of the New World attracted many English people. Although the ocean trips took many lives, those who did get to North America were instrumental in building the necessary groundwork for what would become for new powerful nations. Some of the first immigrants to cross the Atlantic and come to North America bore the name Mancester, or a variant listed above: Jonathan Manchest settled in Virginia in 1645; Richard Manchester settled in Philadelphia in 1826; James Manchester arrived in Philadelphia in 1855; Burrell Manchester arrived in San Francisco in 1852..

Wildebeest Migration 2010
Every year starting from the early July to late September, over a million wildebeests and Zebras followed by the big cats cross over the rolling plains of the Masai Mara setting the most spectacular marvel of mother nature that cannot be witnessed in any other part of the world. This undoubtedly becomes the best times to visit Africa. The selected Safari will show you this and more. On this safari we will visit the premier parks and game reserves of Kenya. First we will head north to the lush forest of the Aberdare mountain range, where we will spend our time observing the many forest species that come to the waterhole.
Enaidura is a Maasai word meaning Migration. Experience the breath taking spectacular of millions of wildebeest and zebra, crossing the Mara River. They move north from the Serengeti in July and August in search of lush grass. They return south in October before the rainy season. Watching these animals moving together en masse is truly breath taking.
Meanwhile, the big cats and our other famous predators will have to device new and smarter means of tracking down prey from their thoroughly depleted menu. They'll also have to go for longer between meals although they have proven themselves easily adaptable to this challenge. Once again nature will bring its survival processes to bear, for it's only the finest predators that will survive until the next season ensuring the passage of the strongest genes to the next generation.
This morning we drive across the equator and descend the Nyandarua Escarpment into the Great Rift Valley and visit Thomson Falls. The Valley floor in Kenya is studded with volcanoes and seven lakes. These lakes fluctuate greatly in size according to the quality of the rains during the monsoons each year, sometimes drying up altogether. Arrive in time for lunch. This afternoon we take a game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park often described as the world's biggest ornithological spectacle. This lake is famous for its flocks of over one million Greater and Lesser Flamingoes. The abundance of these birds is due to the alkaline mineral salts in the water, which support vast blooms of the blue-green algae and diatoms on which the flamingoes feed. As well as seeing many large game animals such as zebras, elephants and gazelles, this is one of our best chances of seeing rhinos. These highly endangered animals are the second largest land animals in the world. Lake Nakuru National Park was the first place in Kenya selected as a rhino reserve. Here is one of the few places where we can see Rothschild's giraffes. Overnight at the Lake Nakuru Lodge. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.
After a morning game drive, we leave for the Masai Mara located further south into the Great Rift Valley. The Valley floor in Kenya is studded with volcanoes and seven lakes. These lakes fluctuate greatly in size according to the quality of the rains during the monsoons each year, sometimes drying up altogether. Driving south along the Great Rift Valley we come to Lake Naivasha. Even though this lake is on the floor of the Valley, it is still situated at about 6,200 feet (1,890 meters) above sea level. Naivasha presents a mystery - even though the lake has no apparent outflows, its waters are fresh. The other lakes of the Valley also have only way of losing water, by evaporation, but they are very alkaline. Because it is one of the largest sources of fresh water in Kenya, Lake Naivasha attracts a huge variety of birds in large numbers. It is a bird-watchers' paradise. After lunch, we make our way to Kenya's premier wildlife park - the Masai Mara. This is the northern section of the Serengeti Plain, which is home to the greatest concentration of game animals in the world. First of 3 nights in the Masai Mara. Sarova Mara Tented Camp. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner.

Several years ago, my mother had a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and had many problems afterward. She was taking Premarin, Synthroid, Glucophage, and possibly one or two other medications. She was seeing an endocrinologist, and they were having trouble getting all of her hormones and everything in balance after the surgery. She had a few instances of panic attacks. One day, while driving, she felt another panic attack starting. She was afraid she would have to pull over for a while to calm down or have a wreck. Then, she suddenly felt a presence next her. She says she saw a person sitting in the passenger seat, who then spoke to her. He reassured her that everything was fine, and that she did not need to stop driving. She felt a great calm go over her, and she was able to drive home without any other feelings of
My mother did not tell us about this incident for a couple years, because she thought no one would believe her. But eventually, she did tell us, and added that it had to be an angel (she is a Christian).

text: Punto Queries Hi, I own a GP 1.3 MJD EP, in Pune for the last 5 months. Moderate driving - have done 6000km so far. GP gives excellent city mileage of around 19kmpl, and upto 23 on highway (Pune-Mumbai expressway) City driving is between Kothrud and Hadapsar daily. I have a couple of queries, hence I am posting to this forum. 1) Car's AC does not work at all, taking it to Pandit Auto next week. I read on this forums that they are doing some AC kit replacement or something. How do we know if the car is eligible? On starting my car's compressor, there is a musty smell with the blown air and no cooling effect whatsoever. Any idea what might be wrong? Also are such repairs covered under warranty? 2) When I insert the key in the ignition and turn to MAR position (not the ignition), I can hear some kind of crackling noise for about 5-6 seconds after which it stops automatically. The sound cannot be heard from the inside. I can clearly hear it when window pane is down and there is silence (late night or early morning) I thought this might be related to glow plug but the symbol comes properly on dashboard and goes off within 2-3 seconds. Any idea what that might be? I intend to show these to Pandit, let;s see.

Pusha T has enjoyed much success from producing the Clipse song "Grindin', which features a beat by Pharrell Williams. During a recent interview, the rapper revealed that he almost lost the beat to a hip-hop legend.
"He actually threatened me," Pusha said of Pharrell. "He told me if I was not at the studio in 10 minutes he was going to give the beat to Jay Z."
Related: Pusha T Talks Criminal Justice Reform with VP Candidate Tim Kaine
The rapper told the story during an appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on Thursday evening (Oct. 27). "Me and Pharrell are really good friends, we grew up in the same hometown, so the fact that he would give a great beat to an artist who wasn't from our hometown would have burnt me up. Of course I made it in 10 minutes and the rest is history."
He and Justin Timberlake helped reinvent McDonald's "I'm Lovin' It" jingle, too, and part of the success of the song included a meeting with Ronald McDonald himself. "He didn't talk. He just smiled and waved. I thought I was four again," Pusha T said of meeting the legendary clown in person.
Then the interview took a serious turn, and Pusha T spoke about his admiration for Hillary Clinton. The rapper has spoken with the presidential candidate via FaceTime and have a collaboration where those who register to voice are automatically entered for a chance to meet Pusha T.
He says that he "definitely believes" Clinton will follow Obama's work on reforming prisons and reducing incarceration rates in the U.S.
"That's the most important issue to me simply because I feel like that's the most important issue tearing apart our community right now," he says. "You can't vote, you can't get grants [if you've been imprisoned]. It's like you keep paying forever. We have to change that."

Various Artists – Latin Christmas (Putumayo PUT 363-2, 2016)
Thank you, Dr. Poinsett, for bringing the "Flor de Noche Buena" back to the US from Central America 80 years ago. We now identify it with wonderful Christmas times with loved ones. eight decades ago. As the Hispanic demographic in this country expands, we will see, hear and incorporate a corresponding expansion Latin American Christmas traditions. This holiday anthology on the Putumayo label is a good start.
More than half the songs will be familiar to Anglo ears, but the bossa nova and rumba rhythms and light percussion overlays differentiate them from our old holiday favorites, now sadly more identified with our shopping malls than our homes. World Christmas music such as this collection can become a unique part of your own family memory and tradition. It is refreshing and a pleasure to hear what the tension of Spanish guitar, the strong rhythm of precise horn sections and musical pocket-filling percussion and clear, poignant vocals add to the songs we've been humming all our lives, and to add to a holiday music catalog that may have become stale through a lifetime of overplay.
In the hands of these artists from climes much more distant from Santa's North Pole than ours, the musical imagery becomes more magical. Somehow, the Magis' journey seems longer and thoughts of a "White Christmas" more fantastic. Hearing an instrumental foundation from less affluent lands, one pictures the joy and merriment of the season coming from time with loved ones rather than with competitive, material gifts. In short, this release is a sure enhancement of the yuletide.

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
Berkeley Bowl has a long history of being an anti-union and anti-worker employer. If they were truly neutral, then they would publicly announce that they would remain neutral in the election process, they would say nothing to the workers about the union, and they would let each worker decide for themselves. Berkeley Bowl was found to have unfairly interfered in the democratic election. Until Berkeley Bowl publicly announces that they will not push its workers in one way or the other, we should boycott.
As a former union organizer, I have seen how the right wingers been successful rigging the NLRB union election process so that employers have a major advantage. There are a hundred little legalistic tricks that give workers a right to organize only in theory. This is the best democracy the Koch borthers can buy.

Los Angeles, April 10 (IANS) Reality TV star Kim Kardashian has reached out to her brother Rob Kardashian after announcement of his engagement with Blac Chyna.
Rob has shared several Snapchat videos of his sister on Instagram to let fans know how she felt about his engagement, reports aceshowbiz.com.
In one video, Kim used a baseball-themed filter that gave her a Los Angeles Dodgers hat and "Opening Day" black paint under her eyes.
"In honour of Rob's big day," Kim cryptically said. Rob captioned the video "Sister love".
However, Kim seemed to become more direct in her second video.
"Rob, we need to talk," she said while pretending to cry and adding a filter that gave an illusion of teary eyes.
In the caption, Rob wrote: "Had to post this snap my sister sent me. She's got jokes! Kim's cry face".
Kristen Bell slaps reporter on red carpet
Los Angeles, April 10 (IANS) Actress Kristen Bell hit a rude male reporter who tried to grab her during a premiere of her new movie "The Boss".
Bell had an uncomfortable encounter with the reporter, whose name is Kevin Donnelly.
In a video obtained by entertainment website JustJared, Donnelly was seen bobbing the mic on Bell's face as he asked a silly question about who's the boss in the movie, reports aceshowbiz.com.
"I don't really care," he added. It's unclear what prompted Donnelly's bizarre question.
"Okay. That's enough," Bell said. As she turned her back ready to leave, Donnelly suddenly grabbed her arm while calling her "baby".
Having had enough, Bell slapped the reporter, sending him sprawled on the floor.
"Kristen, it's really OK," he said as he got up and climbed over the barricade. Shocked with his behaviour, Bell quickly made her way inside the building.
Fernandez-Versini not in 'rush' to have baby with Liam Payne
Los Angeles, April 10 (IANS) Singer Cheryl Fernandez-Versini is reportedly not in a "rush" to have a baby with her boyfriend and One Direction singer Liam Payne.
According to a source, Fernandez-Versini, who has moved in with Payne in Los Angeles, is in no rush to start a family with him, reports mirror.co.uk.
"Cheryl isn't in any rush to have babies and is bemused by people saying that is her plan with Liam. It is so wide off the mark," the source said.
Meanwhile, the divorce of Fernandez-Versini from her estranged husband Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini, which was expected to run smoothly after she first filed for the separation shortly before Christmas last year, has not been finalised.
Another source said: "It's been a lot slower than expected. There's no information coming up as there are confidentiality clauses in place."

After widespread speculation that Leonardo Di Caprio and Blake Lively had gone their separate ways, representatives for the pair have finally confirmed the news.
A friend had previously claimed that the couple, who were first linked back in May at the Cannes Film Festival, decided to end their romance due to conflicting work schedules.
Representatives have now confirmed the break-up, telling US Weekly that the two intend to "remain friends" in spite of their split.
The Titanic actor and Gossip Girl star, 24, were first spotting together hugging on Steven Spielberg's yacht in Cannes, while in France for the famous film festival.
Reports of a split then surfaced in July, however they proved to be unfounded after Lively and Di Caprio were seen together cycling around New York.
Leonardo has already moved on from Blake, according to reports, and is currently dating 21-year-old Australian model Alyce Crawford.
He split from Brazilian model Gisele Bndchen back in 2005, before embarking on a relationship with Bar Rafaeli - another model - until 2010.

I WOULD challenge the headline and content of Helend McArdle's article ("Wanted: Caring nurses to help outr ageing society", The Herald, March 17) in your Grey Matters series on two counts. Firstly, the headline raises the assumption we do not currently have "caring" nurses and secondly it raises the same old chestnut that we do not really need graduate registered nurses (RNs).
Professor Alan Boyter, recently retired NHS director of HR, has called for "an end to the professionalisation of nursing by opening up the career to those with college qualifications as the profession grapples with a looming retirement time bomb and increasing numbers of long term vacancies". This is in the context of increasing demands on healthcare services with more acute and complex care needs as the population ages.
The fact that we are in a "demographic time bomb" of ageing nurses and patients has been evident for decades and should have been planned for, yet it is currently seen as the primary root of all NHS problems. Diluting the skill mix of the nursing workforce further with the proposed non-graduate RNs to "end the professionalisation of nursing" is not the answer. I believe this would be used as an excuse to the reduce the profession to the lowest common denominator simply because of current budgetary constraints with little regard for the evidence that patients do better with the right numbers of skilled professional RNs. Nursing as a profession needs to move forward not backwards.
Loading article content
What we need is funding and investment for more staff in general with more graduate RNs and more skilled staff in nursing support roles to meet the constantly changing and challenging care needs nurses face now and will in the future, otherwise we will face the same problem repeatedly in the years to come as demographics change and the retirement age is pushed back. Prof Boyter feels there is the lack of opportunities for individuals to pursue a nursing career because of the entry requirements to graduate programmes. There are, however, several gateways to enter RN education such as nursing access courses, foundation programmes, Scottish Wider Access Programmes, HNC/HND entry level and nursing associate and degree apprenticeships are in the pipeline.
With regard to unfilled posts the total vacancy rate is four per cent and one per cent for posts vacant for the months. As Prof Boyter will know, nursing vacancies have and always will be used as a non-recurring means of managing budgets.
We will never be able to keep politics out of the NHS but we need those in positions of authority, influence and expertise to stand up to political policy that hampers planning and progress. The gradual annual reduction in student intakes in Scotland from a peak of 3698 in 2003/04 to a low of 2713 in 2012/13 to the current 3164 in 2015/16; removal of student nurse bursaries in England, pay freezes, and a failure to legislate on minimum nurse staffing levels are some examples of a lack of joined-up thinking for the future of the profession.

With new funding, CUNY wants to invent J-school 2.0
The journalism industry is changing quickly. And journalism schools often are slow to catch up.
That's according to Jeff Jarvis, the director of the Tow-Knight Center for Entrepreneurial Journalism at the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism. At many journalism schools, Jarvis said, it can take three years to get a new course into the curriculum. For an industry that can be shaken up over the course of a few months, that's eons.
"Journalism education has to get very good at change. Rapid change," Jarvis said. "The field is changing very quickly and we have to keep up with it."
Jarvis and CUNY will have plenty of help navigating the ever-shifting business of journalism. This morning, the Knight Foundation announced that it will continue its support of the Tow-Knight Center with $3.5 million in new funding. The center's other primary funder, the Tow Foundation, is also continuing its support after helping found the center six years ago.
The Tow-Knight Center will use the money to continue its work of fostering entrepreneurial journalism, identifying major trends shaping the news business and staying on top of the skills students need to get a job in journalism.
Since it was founded in 2010, the Tow-Knight Center has undertaken several initiatives aimed at rethinking the way educators prepare students for the workplace. In 2014, Jarvis announced that CUNY was developing a MA in social journalism, a degree that was ultimately finalized in less than a year.
The center has also created the first degree in entrepreneurial journalism and has served as an incubator of sorts for projects including Skillcrush, Narratively and Purple.
"If you look at what they've done for the field and for journalism education, CUNY has been a real pioneer for both the field and their support for journalism education," said Jennifer Preston, vice president of journalism at the Knight Foundation. "They've supported journalists in their efforts to become entrepreneurs and adopting an audience-first focus."
CUNY is a relatively new graduate school, having gotten its start in 2004. Its newness and entrepreneurial spirit give it the sensibility of a startup, Preston said.
"They do so much to advance the field of journalism that I think we forget sometimes how young this graduate school of journalism is," she said.
Going forward, the Tow-Knight Center will focus its efforts on several new projects, Jarvis said. In the works is a degree program that focuses on developing leadership capabilities among young journalists who have been promoted but find themselves without many of the skills that veterans often have.
The center is also planning to focus on developing "communities of practice," groups of industry professionals who can give professors and students a window onto the changing business of media by serving as a kind of brain trust. Those groups will be convened in-person and online, including with Slack and Google Hangouts.
In addition, the center will be exploring the idea of competency-based education, the process of promoting students based on mastery of skills rather than completing an arbitrary number of classroom hours. They'll also further develop the concept of journalistic "superpowers," subject area specialties that students need to succeed after graduation.
All of the work, Jarvis said, will be aimed at asking students — not professional journalists or faculty — reinvent journalism.
"After Gutenberg invented the press, it took 150 years to invent the newspaper," Jarvis said. "We have to look at new relationships, new forms and new models."

I was a nanny for a family in Edina for 8+ years. The time came that the kids were getting to be "too old" for a nanny. I knew the time would come, but I was so heart broken. I have watched those kids grow up. What an amazing experience I had. I work at a hospital now and take on some grueling shifts/hours. It has sort of been a wake up call that I don't want to spend 60+ hours at a hospital. I am looking for something to break up that crazy, stressful, fast paced hospital setting and bring some joy and excitement into my day. I love being active and living a healthy lifestyle.

Long Beach, CA (PressExposure) April 08, 2013 -- Independent rockers Dylan Champagne & the Lost Explorers have released their first official collection of music, an extended-play record titled, "The Bones EP." The release contains five original tracks for an approximate 20 minutes' worth of stylish, eclectic, high-octane listening. Fans of cult legends such as Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, The Pixies, and The Jesus and Mary Chain are certain to be enthusiastic about this first offering by Dylan Champagne and his Lost Explorers crew.
Champagne, who is a native of the same music hotbed of Northern California that gave the world experimental rock bands like Mr. Bungle, Neurosis, and Cake, is as passionate about his narrative-driven songwriting as he is about the overall sound of the resulting music. The tone of "The Bones" is dark, upbeat, rough, tough and strangely classy, not unlike a cross between London's The Libertines and an album by pre-eminent poet and legendary singer Leonard Cohen.
"This EP is an attempt to chart a tiny piece of the heart's terra incognita" Champagne writes of the record, "through an exploration of musical form and personal narrative."
This narrative is revealed to the listener as an audio collage of stories told through modern rock music, a raw, unique and colorful rock 'n' roll played with a heavy dose of swing and a surprising amount of depth and complexity.
"If it were a still-life painting," Champagne muses, "it could be described as 'narrative-driven indie with math rock and baritone.' It is a bit hectic, a bit controlled, a bit nostalgic. It is about connection and isolation, reconciliation, hope, mania, beauty, catharsis and longing."
To be sure, the EP is more than a collection of songs. It is character, personality, intellectuality and introspection, as well as groove, shake, and shadowy musical mojo.
Dylan Champagne formed The Lost Explorers in 2011 to perform his material live as a core trio. In addition to Champagne, they are drummer Andre Custodio of Say Bok Gwai, and bassist john Shiurba of Eskimo, and The Molecules. Their successful Kickstarter campaign resulted in a pivotal regional tour, as well as a 48-hr stint at San Francisco's Tiny Telephone music studio, where Jacob Winik recorded what would become "The Bones EP."
Champagne has also released two solo records on his own label, Broke in Oakland.
Dylan Champagne & the Lost Explorers' "The Bones EP" is available online worldwide April 8, 2013.

In many ways, it seemed like Ron Paul began his 2008 Iowa caucus campaign on a dare. After being shunned by the Iowa Christian Alliance and Iowans for Tax Relief's presidential forum, Paul basically crashed the party and his "revolution" began to take root in Iowa.
Paul finished fifth in the 2008 Iowa caucuses, but only a few thousand votes behind John McCain and Fred Thompson. Had Paul been better organized and focused on building a grassroots caucus mechanism sooner, it's likely that he could have finished in the top three, which would have been a huge boost for his campaign.
Over the past few years, Paul has traveled back to Iowa for Campaign for Liberty events and to support Iowa legislative candidates. In each instance, he has been welcomed by large crowds, which seems to indicate that his support has grown or at least intensified following the 2008 caucuses.
If any candidate in the caucuses will be able to tap into the tea party movement in Iowa, it's Ron Paul. Paul's libertarian views give him a solid base of support in the state, and he doesn't have to start from scratch like he did in 2008. Ron Paul + tea party = trouble for traditional candidates in the caucuses. Plus, instead of his supporters spending countless hours tying to make sure he is allowed in the debates, they can instead focus on getting him elected.
The problem for Paul is that he's going to have to compete for those tea party votes in 2012 since there will be a number of candidates trying to attract that particular group of voters. The tea party vote might be the most fractured part of the electorate in the 2012 caucuses with candidates like Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain, Newt Gingrich, and Rick Santorum all reaching out to them.
While Paul will have to campaign hard to win a majority of the tea party activists in the state, it's safe to say that nobody will have a more loyal and dedicated group of supporters than Ron Paul will have. In a caucus state, that kind of support is worth its weight in gold.

"Just in time for Cinco de Mayo! I found this quick, easy, delicious recipe in the Chicago Tribune...it's a Wolfgang Puck recipe. This recipe can be 'tuned' to your liking by using different cheese, using chicken instead of beef, etc. Use a good quality fresh salsa from the store's refrigerated case and be sure to drain off the excess liquid so that your quesadillas aren't soggy. The sirloin steak can be either grilled or broiled, it's up to you....I couldn't add that info down below, the editor wouldn't take it."
Spicy Steak Quesadillas
0 recipe photos
READY IN:30mins
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 (12 inch) flour tortillas
- 3⁄4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 ounces sirloin steaks, cooked and thinly sliced
- 1 jalapeno, minced
- 1⁄2 cup prepared salsa, drained of excess liquid, plus more for serving
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- fresh cilantro stem
- Place 2 of the tortillas on a work surface; evenly spread 1/4 cup of the cheese on top of each tortilla.
- Divide the steak evenly between the 2 tortillas; sprinkle with jalapeno to taste. Spoon 1/4 cup of salsa over each; top with the remaining cheese. Place another tortilla on top of each quesadilla and press down firmly with your hands to seal.
- Heat a large skillet over high heat; add 1 1/2 tsp of the oil and swirl to coat the bottom. Lower heat to medium; carefully transfer one of the quesadillas to the pan. Cook until the bottom tortilla is golden brown, about 2 minutes.
- Carefully slide the quesadilla onto a dinner plate, invert another plate over it. Hold them securely together; flip plates to leave the quesadilla browned side up. Slide tortilla back into the hot pan to cook the other side until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Repeating with remaining quesadilla.

Back pain is often related to poor use of the body and in some cases back pain causes difficulty with motion. Motion has always been an important part of chiropractic care. In your body life is expressed by motion and motion can be seen in life. You may notice motion in the way you move your body. But most people move around paying no attention to the patterns and combinations of movement that make up thier everyday activity. Moving effortlessly and efficiently is a joy that you might not appreciate until you can't. As a chiropractor a lot of people present in our office to regain the ability to move pain free. But there is a much more subtle motion inside of you that gets little attention and deserves your awareness.
There is a law of life that says that everything in the Universe vibrates, nothing rests. Even when you appear to be at rest, you still has a level of motion known as vibration. Your body is matter and physical science has indicated that all matter has motion. Matter exists in a state of vibration and the vitality of living matter is influenced by your internal vibration. In other words, your health is affected by the vibrational harmony of your body, mind and spirit. When a body is in a positive state of vibration it said to be "at ease." When it is in a negative state of vibration it is in a state of "dis-ease."
Your thoughts are vibrations that you create. Your feelings are a conscious awareness of how you interpret waves of vibration. These vibrations are shared with everything around you. Because your thoughts create mental vibrations, your thoughts can affect everything around you. When you realize that your thoughts affect your environment, you will recognize the power that your mind has on your life. You can create bad vibrations or you can create good vibrations. It's all a matter of what you choose to focus on.
Focus clearly on good things and you will create good vibrations. In fact, you can change bad vibrations to good vibrations by simply changing what you focus on.
When you say you feel good, you are really saying that you are aware of good vibrations sponsored by good thoughts. When you feel bad it is because you are realizing the effect of bad vibrations. Good vibrations and bad vibrations ultimately come directly from you. There may be certain situations or circumstances that attempt to affect your vibrations but the truth is that you are in control of the production of your thoughts and vibrations.
Concentrating increases the strength of vibrations. If you concentrate on good vibrations you get stronger good feelings. The opposite is true and many people spend too much time concentrating on bad vibrations. You can change good or bad vibrations by changing what you think about. To properly follow the law of vibration, create good vibrations and activate them in your brain to control the vibration that your body is in.
Remember that thought is the strongest creator of human vibration. Your ability to think is truly a gift that should be appreciated by using it in the best way possible. Anything that you have now- your health, prosperity, relationships- are a result of your thought. Thought is by definition, creative. What you create in your life is up to you. The best creations are the ones that you feel best about. When you feel good about your thoughts and their creation, your vibrational frequency will be in harmony. This helps you to live with ease in all aspects of your life. I would love to hear about your vibrations so please feel free let me know.

Ion channels are a class of integral membrane proteins, locating on almost all the membranes of cells, controlling the transportation of ions. They are normally assembled by several identical or homogenous subunits organized into a 'tunnel-like' structure with a 'gating' system.
There are different membrane ion channel proteins, each allows one or several types of ions moving across the membranes under certain conditions. According to mechanism of gating system, ion channels could be classified into two major types. voltage-gated ion channels are responsible to the voltage gradient across the membrane, e.g., Na+ channels. Ligand-gated ion channels are linked with functional related receptor, and responsible for ligand binding, such as ATP-gated P2X receptors.
Ion channels are functionally important for the impulse conduction through the nerve and across the synapses in the nervous systems. They are also involved in various biological processes, including muscle contraction, blood pressure regulation, nutrients transportation, cell proliferation and immune cell activation. Defect of ion channel as well as their modifier usually results in serious disease, collectively termed channelopathies, including e.g., Paramyotonia congenital, Episodic ataxia, Neonatal diabetes, Long QT syndrome and Cystic fibrosis. Genomic sequencing has verified more than 400 putative ion channels in human, however, as promising targets for drug discovery, only a few of them are well studied and limited number of drugs are developed (e.g., diltiazem for hypertension, phenytoin for epilepsy). The main drawbacks of the ion channel study are related to the integral membrane protein features, which is difficult to be isolated in the native conformation with preserved bio-activity for the subsequent analysis.
Creative Biolabs has developed cutting-edge techniques and platforms for membrane ion channel protein research:
Cell-based expression
Cell-free expression
Virus-like Particle/Lipoparticle
EBEE™ technique
Our skilled scientists and technicians will offer you the best service.

Kingston Medical Malpractice Law Firm Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Know if I Have a Medical Malpractice Claim?
Medical malpractice claims are often difficult to prove because many complications can arise during a procedure or treatment that can't be blamed on the negligence or mistake of a health care provider. However, if a medical professional's oversight or error caused you harm, the difficulty of making a case should not allow the lapse in care or judgment to go unchecked.
That said, to prove a medical malpractice claim, you must show that the health care provider owed you a duty to provide medical services; that there was a breach of duty because the health care provider did not act according to the standards of the medical profession; that the breach of duty caused your injury; and that you sustained actual damages as a result of the injury.
