One of the most common inboxes I get on social media is from people asking what they can do to protect or shield themselves or how to cleanse or get rid of funky energy from their space or home.
There are many ways we can protect ourselves. Raising personal power and using it to protect ourselves and our environment is one of the most empowering things we can learn. Knowing how to recognize and disperse negative or psychic attacks, how to return the energy to the sender or deflect it away are all ways we can make sure we feel safe within our selves and our environment.
Knowing that what we put out come back to us, means we need to protect ourselves in such a way that we are not throwing around energy with ill intent.
The easiest way to protect yourself is by visualizing a cloak of light, colour, or even powerful energy around your self. Imagine yourself putting on a psychic armor, just like a beetle had a hard exoskeleton to protect its fragile insides( animals and insects have much to teach us about protection and energetic armour); we too need to find a way to protectively surround our aura and shields our space from outside attacks.You can add to this daily practice by purposely deflecting, or returning to sender any attacks sent your way.
There are some really common herbs and spices that are really powerful herbs when used with the intent of protection and shielding oneself.
The first one that comes to mind is cloves. Cloves have a very strong protective energy; they can also be used for banishing and releasing certain energies from your life.
Ginger root is another one that is great for building your own psychic powers as well as being great for deflecting or returning to sender, negative energies/ attacks sent your way
Salt is great for sprinkling around doorways and windowsills with the intent of sealing your personal space and protecting it from attacks and negativity.
Peppercorns are also a protective spice. They works by deflecting negative power back where it came from. It is also good for helping raise your own power.
If your more of a crystal witch, Black tourmaline crystals and smoky Quartz are both great at absorbing negativity and physic attacks as is jet and onyx. Any black crystals are great for absorbing and deflecting.
You may read sometime in both fantasy and no fiction books where witches traditionally wore rings of amber or jet or both on their power fingers? This is because jet is a great for deflection, binding and protection and by simply raising your hand with intent; you are deflecting any negative attacks and sending the negativity back where it came from. Amber is used to break spells, absorb negative energies and keep you safe.I wear both of these stones as rings for this purpose.
There are many ways you can use the herbs for protection include
• Sprinkling them on windowsills and around doorframes,
• Making up little spell bags and hanging them throughout your house or even wearing one or carrying it in your pocket.
• If your having issues at night while sleeping, I would suggest making a psychic protection dream pillow/ amulet using the herbs listed and any other you may intuitively feel drawn too, just use a small bag of pouch and add the above herbs and place it under your pillow to protect you while your sleeping.
AS well as protecting and shielding ourselves there are many different ways to clear a space. It may be our home, a specific room or a workspace, or perhaps someone has been in your home and left behind a funky energy?
I will share a collection of ways below and hopefully you will find a method that feels comfortable for you.
Broom or Besom– A very simple and effect way of cleansing a space is with a broom. Sweeping away the negative energy and the physical dust and debris is a symbolic as well as a physical act of clearing a room, an area, bench, workspace or table. I like to make a point of picking up the pile of dust and blowing it into the wind outside with the intent of scattering it to the wind and helping it move away from me and my space.
Movement and Noise – Moving your body by dancing, stamping your feet, banging pots, pans, drumming, chanting, banging sticks and vocalisation all help create energetic movement which helps disperse negative energy away from an area. If you are someone who loves music, singing, drumming, dancing or movement you may like to include these in your personal cleansing ritual.
Smudging and Smoking – Smudging and smoking both use the smoke from sacred herbs and resins to purify the air, an area or people. Smoking usually refers to the use of green leaves (most commonly gum leaves) being set on fire and the smoke created used for cleansing, clearing and purifying. Aboriginal Australians use this method a lot in their rituals. Smudging on the other hand uses dried leaves and herbs and usually requires a "smudge stick". A bunch of herbs, often white sage, but can also include rosemary, lemon myrtle or any other cleansing or purification herbs you wish to add. To can make your own by finding the fresh herbs, tying them in bundles using cotton and then hanging them in a sunny dry place for about 10 to 14 days.
Incense/ Herbs and Resins – Like Smudging, incense uses ground herbs and resins to cleanse and clear an area. The great think about incense though is there is so many varieties and variations you can work with. There is incense available as sticks, cones, loose incense which is burnt on a charcoal block or sprinkled into a candle flame. I use a lot of herbs in my magical spaces as there are herbs for awakening our psychic powers and intuition as well as herbs to clear and create sacred space.

NanoSIMS for biological applications: Current practices and analyses
Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) has become an increasingly utilized tool in biologically-relevant studies. Of these, high lateral resolution methodologies using the NanoSIMS 50/50L have been especially powerful within many biological fields over the past decade. Here, we provide a review of this technology, sample preparation and analysis considerations, examples of recent biological studies, data analysis, and current outlooks. Specifically, we offer an overview of SIMS and development of the NanoSIMS. We describe the major experimental factors that should be considered prior to NanoSIMS analysis and then provide information on best practices for data analysis and image generation, which includes an in-depth discussion of appropriate colormaps. Additionally, we provide an open-source method for data representation that allows simultaneous visualization of secondary electron and ion information within a single image. Lastly, we present a perspective on the future of this technology and where we think it will have the greatest impact in near future.

Can't wait for this race. RICHARD OF YORKE has found slashing form and is sooo strong he just seems to win everything this grade under any conditions. Big show. GREAT GLEN, his stablemate, has a few big wraps upon him and he won with authority last start. Hugh Bowman has chosen him over Richard which speaks volumes. But then we see the Godolphin stayer INTERLOCUTER. This could be a real star in the making. Super fit and ready for this grade. Looks ideally placed.

PRIZED ICON hasn't been against this caliber of runner for some time. He is fresh and is a Gr 1 winner. That makes him exceptionally hard to hold out. CALANDA is boomed highly yet met with enormous bother last start and was well beaten. Give another chance as where there is smoke there is fire. BARBASS is a bush horse with enormous talent. Has he enough at level weights against this mob…hard to say? He did win the inglis 2YO Challenge at this meet last year.

Gai and Adrian look well placed here. Down the bottom of the weights PROMPT RETURN looks their best. She will surge clear early and be on the pace.

This is slightly tougher but is back to her very best and that's significant here. Can go close.
The Early Crows Top Tip: BIG MONEY

We just picked up some Michigan sugar for priming our bottles, cans, and kegs. Every single beer we release is carbonated inside the bottle/can/keg by dosing the batch with sugar, packaging, and storing at room temp to referment and carbonate the vessel. We like using this method because it's natural, affordable, and requires no special equipment or temperature control. It's also essential for our beers long term stability because the live yeast inside the vessel will scavenge oxygen and keep the beer tasting fresh... even our hoppy beers.

UNI: Twenty of Gujarat's prominent civic society institutes and citizen's groups in a resolution have flayed the State government for not allowing the release of the movie Parzania.
''Condemning the Government for being inactive in cases like Parzania and demanding pro-active steps to protect the freedom of expression'' Gujarati Lekhak Mandal (writers association of Gujarat) said in a release.
The release of the film Parzania in Gujarat is being stalled by unconstitutional and illegal means, the release added.
The fascist groups are openly obstructing the filmmakers' right to exhibit the film and people's freedom to watch it by threatening the concerned persons. The nation as a whole is condemning such incidents, lately on the rise in Gujarat, the release said.
Maintaining an atmosphere of peace, free of fear is State government's responsibility. Instead it appears to be indirectly supporting these undemocratic forces in their fascist agenda of intimidation of civil society, by not responding or not taking any steps against them.
As the socially concerned citizen's groups and representative institutes, we demand from the government and administration that they perform their constitutional duties and take proactive steps to stop these fascist elements, behaving as the extra-constitutional powers.
Those organisations who have endorsed the resolution are Gujarati Lekhak Mandal, Movment for Secular Democracy, Lok Adhikar Sangh, PUCL, Prashant, Samvedan Sanskrutik Karykram, Darshan, Janpath, Ganatar, Naya Marg, Nirikshak, Bhoomiputra Pakshik, Gujarat Sarvodaya Mandal, Mahila Punaruthan Sangh, Drishti Media arts and Human Rights, Fade-in Theatre, Gujarat Christian Press Council, Abhikram, Manaviya Technology Forum and Paryavaran Suraksha Samiti.

General Questions
An electronic cigarette, e-cigarette, e-cig or vaporizer is a battery-powered device that provides inhaled doses of nicotine or non-nicotine vaporized solution. In addition to potential nicotine delivery, this vapour also provides a flavour and physical sensation similar to that of inhaled tobacco smoke, while no smoke or combustion is actually involved in its operation.
The Nicovape Nica is activated when a user inhales through the mouthpiece of the device. Air flow is detected by a sensor, which activates a heating element that vaporizes the flavoured liquid solution stored in the NICAPOD.
There is growing scientific evidence that vaping helps some people quit smoking. Personal vaporisers are now the most popular quitting aid in many countries including the United Kingdom and the United States.
Modern devices can provide the same levels of nicotine as tobacco cigarettes and can relieve urges to smoke and nicotine withdrawal symptoms such as irritability and loss of concentration. They also replicate the psychological and hand-to-mouth aspects of smoking.
Millions of smokers have reported quitting using a personal vaporiser in the UK, US and EU – over 6 million people reported quitting smoking with a vaporiser in the EU alone in 2014. Older devices are at least as effective as the nicotine patch. Newer devices deliver nicotine more effectively and have higher quit rates.
Vaping is most effective when it is used daily and after allowing some time to find the right device and e-liquid combination that works best for the user.
It is completely legal to use an e-cigarette in Australia so long as it doesn't contain nicotine. If you want to use one which contains nicotine, you can only legally do so for the purpose of quitting smoking, and only if you have a prescription from a registered Australian medical practitioner. Nicotine can be imported from overseas under the TGA Personal Importation Scheme.
State laws regulate issues such as sale of nicotine, use in public places, age limits on sale, display and promotion of vaporisers. Regulations are different between jurisdictions and may change from time to time.
Nicovape e-cigarette products have been designed for existing smokers and e-cigarette users who are 18 years of age or older. We offer an innovative and less harmful alternative to traditional cigarettes. Though many people have successfully used these products in an effort to quit smoking, electronic cigarettes have not yet been approved by the TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) in Australia as devices designated for smoking cessation. We also advise that you consult your doctor before use, particularly if using nicotine inclusive varieties.
It should be noted that even though a recent medical study conducted by Public Health England found that e-cigarettes were 95% less harmful than traditional cigarettes, they are still more harmful than using nothing at all. If you are not currently a smoker, then it is not advised that you use an e-cigarette, especially with nicotine.
Due to our exclusive affiliation with Australian registered medical practitioners, Nicovape allows you to legally purchase and possess Nicotine containing e-cigarettes in Australia.
Nicovape products are specifically designed to make the transition across to e-cigarettes as simple, convenient, and affordable as possible. Everything from our discounted subscription model, easy-to-use and affordable products, free shipping, and right through to our proprietary online prescription service has been done with simplicity in mind.
Nicovape is the only certified e-cigarette provider currently available in Australia which is produced in an ISO7 and GMP certified laboratory using only the highest grade of certified raw ingredients. Even though e-cigarette liquids and devices are not yet regulated under Australian law, our laboratory located in San Francisco, USA meets all FDA standards, and places product quality and user safety as our highest priority.
Some recent media reports about electronic cigarettes suggest that the importation of nicotine in personal amounts is exempt from regulation. As Nicotine is classified as a Scheduled Poison, the penalties for breaking these laws are very severe, and can result in criminal convictions, large fines, and possible jail sentences, so knowing all the relevant laws is very important.
The importation of Nicotine is governed by Australian Federal law, and is enforced by customs. The media reports reference the Personal Importation Scheme for Therapeutic Goods in the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989, but fail to mention the important limitations and risks to this scheme in relation to the importation of electronic cigarettes.
- Under state and territory law, nicotine (whether or not it is for use as part of an electronic cigarette) is a Scheduled poison.
- Any product or substance that is a therapeutic good and personally imported under the Act must also be legal within your own state or territory, and therefore be accompanied by an Australian issued medical prescription
If you are importing liquid nicotine for a therapeutic use (such as smoking cessation), it is a prescription medicine. To import a prescription medicine you need to possess a valid prescription written by a registered Australian medical practitioner. Under state and territory laws, only a medical practitioner can write a prescription for a medicine, or prescribe a substance that is for therapeutic use.

Vaping is not harmless, but there is overwhelming scientific agreement that it is far less harmful than smoking. The small health risks from vaping should be compared to the substantial risks from smoking. Up to two out of three long-term smokers will die prematurely from a smoking-related disease.
According to a recent independent study undertaken by Public Health England, e-cigarettes were found to be at least 20 times safer, or 95% less harmful than traditional cigarettes. This is not surprising as most of the harm from smoking is due to the tar, carbon monoxide and 7,000 other toxic chemicals produced by burning tobacco leaf. E-cigarettes do not contain tobacco and there is no combustion or smoke. Nearly all the harmful chemicals in tobacco smoke are not present in vapour at all, or are at very low levels. As a result, vaping is substantially less harmful than smoking.
A long-term study funded by Cancer Research UK found that ex-smokers who now vape had 97.5% lower levels of NNAL, a chemical linked to cancer, and significantly lower levels of carcinogens in their system than continuous smokers. Almost all the harm from smoking is caused by the thousands of chemicals released by burning tobacco.
Even though they may be less harmful than traditional cigarettes, they are still more harmful than using nothing at all. If you are not currently a smoker, then it is not advised that you use e-cigarettes, especially with nicotine. Nicotine has been found to have negative effects on foetal development and brain development in adolescence, so it is strongly advised that any woman who is pregnant, likely to become pregnant, or breast-feeding consult their doctor before using our products.
The risk to bystanders from 'passive vaping' appears to be minimal. Negligible amounts of nicotine and other chemicals are released into the air when the vaper exhales, and this dissipates quickly. Nevertheless, indoor vaping is best avoided around children, pregnant women and people with heart or lung disease.
Like all new products, the long-term health effects of vaping have yet to be established. However, based on current knowledge of the ingredients of vapour, the risk is certain to be much less than smoking. Studies of up to four years and ten years of real-world experience have not identified any significant risks to health.
Contrary to alarming claims, regular vaping by young people is rare and is almost exclusively confined to current or past smokers. Most teen vaping is experimental and short-lived. Teenagers are curious, vaping is seen as a fun thing to do and some kids try it. However, the great majority do not use nicotine and there is little or no evidence of progression to smoking.
Overseas experience suggests that vaping is replacing—rather than encouraging—smoking of tobacco cigarettes among young people. Smoking rates in young people are continuing to fall in countries where vaporisers are readily available, in some cases such as the US, more rapidly than ever before.
There is no evidence that the increased visibility of vaping makes smoking appear more socially acceptable (renormalising smoking). In fact, in countries where vaporisers are freely available, smoking rates are continuing to fall, in some countries faster than ever. On the other hand, in Australia where vaping is restricted, smoking rates have stagnated over the 3-year period 2013-2016, for the first time ever.
Most vaping devices now look nothing like cigarettes and don't smell of smoke. Vaping normalises 'not smoking', and its visibility may encourage smokers to switch and quit smoking
Vaping is a grass-roots consumer movement by smokers wanting to improve their health and save money. The tobacco industry became involved much later to avoid becoming redundant as a result of this new technology and they have been playing catch-up ever since in this rapidly evolving field. Most vaporisers are made by small to medium businesses, not by Big Tobacco. In fact, the tobacco industry may be part of the solution if it is encouraged to move out of selling tobacco cigarettes and into less harmful alternatives. Philip Morris International, one of the largest tobacco distributors in Australia recently announced its intentions for a smoke-free future. Currently, no vaping devices sold in Australia are made by a tobacco company.
The addiction to cigarettes is extremely complex and controlling, and there is much more involved in keeping people hooked than just the physical Nicotine addiction itself. Existing NRT products such as lozenges, sprays, patches and gums only look to subdue the cravings from your Nicotine receptors, but don't address the Psychological elements of the addiction. E-cigarettes are being applauded by their millions of users worldwide and progressive health professionals as the first innovative solution to address the cigarette addiction as a whole.
Psychological addiction plays a large role in the cigarette addiction that people are afflicted with. If Nicotine dependency was the only addictive element of the smoking addiction, then simply applying a NRT patch would alleviate any desire or need you may have for a cigarette. As anyone who has previously tried to quit using Nicotine patches can tell you, this certainly isn't the case. Another indicator of how psychological factors can influence your smoking habits are environmental "triggers", such as seeing others smoke, drinking, talking on the phone, or certain scheduled times during your work day that you normally have a cigarette break. These are all possible examples of a psychological addiction triggering your desire for a cigarette, and not simply a Nicotine craving. On average, a pack-per-day smoker is triggered by a Nicotine craving for less than 20% of the cigarettes they smoke.
It is very likely that an individual who "only smokes when they drink" has no Nicotine addiction at all, and is only psychologically addicted to the act of smoking when triggered by an association with alcohol. This particular type of "social" smoker had previously no applicable alternative for their psychological only addiction, but with innovative new e-cigarette technology, they are able to subdue their cravings with non-nicotine containing e-liquids.
E-cigarettes not only facilitate a Nicotine fix for the physically addicted users who require it, but also the hand to mouth motion, the calming sensation of exhaling a smoke like substance, and the social requirement of being able to partake in social situations around fellow smokers and/or e-cigarette users.
No. That's the main benefit of e-cigarettes. Since they vaporise a liquid instead of burning tobacco like traditional cigarettes, no smoke or tar is produced or inhaled into the lungs. Almost all the harm from smoking is caused by the thousands of chemicals released by burning tobacco. Nearly all the harmful chemicals in tobacco smoke are not present in vapour or are at very low levels. As a result, vaping is substantially less harmful than smoking.
The laws regulating e-cigarettes and nicotine vary state to state, and links to current state legislation are provided below. Private businesses such as work places, restaurants and bars also have the ability to impose their own restrictions on the use of e-cigarettes in their premises regardless of whether the state they are in allows them. The use of e-cigarettes is also banned on commercial flights.
- New South Wales
- Victoria
- Queensland
- South Australia
- Western Australia
- Australian Capital Territory
- Northern Territory
- Tasmania
First, you will need to purchase our Nicovape Nica starter kit. This kit includes all the hardware you need including a vaporizer, charging cable, and replacement nicapods. You will then need to decide which of our e-liquid flavours you wish to use, and which Nicotine strength is suitable for your needs.
Nicovape Nica Questions
Batteries and nicapods should be thought of as consumables because they will naturally degrade over time from normal use. The rate at which they degrade will depend on many different factors such as frequency of use, intensity of use, and the operating environment. Replacing parts is a normal recurring expense associated with e-cigarette use.
Average lifespan (Estimates only – dependant on variable)
- Nicovape Nica : 3-6 months
- Nicapods : 1 time use per pod (Disposable)
- 1 Nicapod is approximately the equivalent to 25 cigarettes
Usually yes, it depends on the output rating of the wall socket. The Nica has a recommended max input charge rating of 5v 1amp. Be careful, as some smartphone wall chargers have an output of 5v 2.1amp which exceeds the Nicovape Nica's safe recharge capabilities, and could potentially damage the battery.
The different coloured LED lights are the battery level indicator. The light will illuminate to indicate that the device is in use, and also to show the level of remaining charge, as shown in the picture below.
E-liquid Questions
Yes. The three important components of e-liquid – nicotine, PG, and VG – all have an established shelf life of over 2 years if stored in the correct conditions. When exposed to direct sunlight or extreme heat, these three components begin to break down sooner, and in extreme circumstances the plastic container can begin to break down into the eliquid, similar to a water bottle stored in a hot car. The main concern however with expired e-liquids is the flavour breaking down over time. Each flavour is a little different; some can last up to 5 years, while others lose flavour in only two.
Has Your E-liquid expired?
Here are a few things to check when determining if your e-liquid is still good:
- Storage. If your e-liquid has been stored in an unsuitable location, it may spoil before the expiration date
- Separation. Check the e-liquid for separation. The heavier, denser elements of the e-liquid will naturally sink to the bottom of the bottle, and a little shake may help mix them again. If the contents are not mixing after a few prolonged shakes, it's advised to throw it away.
- Smell. Just like with the litre of milk in your fridge, one quick whiff can tell you if an e-liquid is past it's prime. Not all e-liquids will change smell drastically, but if it smells or looks odd, it's likely a good indicator it has spoiled.
This really depends on how frequently you use it. An average user will go half to two thirds of a nicapod during a normal day. A heavy user who is using their Nicovape Nica consistently may even use a full nicapod per day. On average, a first time user who has recently started using the Nicovape Nica will get 1-2 days use from a single Nicapod.
Both Propylene Glycol (PG) and Vegetable Glycerin (VG) are considered safe and acceptable substance to be ingested by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. In fact both substances are part of many types of food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. Propylene Glycol can cause a throat irritation in some people. It's more popular with recent ex-smokers as it causes a peppery throat hit which can mimic the sensation of tobacco smoke.
- PG – Propylene Glycol
- Doesn't create thick clouds of vapour and has a strong throat hit.
- VG – Vegetable Glycerin
- Has a slight sweet taste. Creates very think plumes of vapour and doesn't cause a throat hit.
- Flavouring
- Nicotine (optional)
Nicotine Questions
No. The tar and other chemicals in tobacco smoke cause cancer, but that's not to say that Nicotine isn't dangerous, it can be extremely addictive. Scientists have found that Nicotine, when administered through inhaling smoke derived from tobacco combustion, can be as addictive as heroin, cocaine or amphetamines, and for most people, far more addictive than alcohol. Preliminary evidence suggests that nicotine administered through inhalation of eliquid aerosols (vaping), is potentially less addictive than it's cigarette counterpart. Tobacco smoke is made up of more than 7,000 chemicals, including over 70 known to cause cancer (carcinogens), but nicotine isn't one of them.
The UK Royal Society for Public Health says it is 'no more harmful to health than caffeine'.. It is a mild central nervous system stimulant and a partially stronger cardiovascular system stimulant. While nicotine can constrict blood vessels and increase blood pressure, studies on standard nicotine replacement therapy show that it plays only a minor role in heart disease.
It is important to note that the mg level you are used to with cigarettes is actually the tar content, not the nicotine content.
Our 24mg version will provide a similar throat sensation to a 6-8mg cigarette.
Our 36mg version will provide a similar throat sensation to a 12mg cigarette.
The NICAPOD varieties are also able to provide higher nicotine levels than other e-cigarette options in the market due to our revolutionary Nicotine Salt technology. As it's the nicotine that keeps people addicted to cigarettes, and is the culprit behind luring smokers back after a failed quit attempt, it was our ultimate goal to provide a safer alternative which fully satisfied the nicotine addiction, to ensure none of our users ever felt the need to smoke again. Please read our information page on this revolutionary technology.
This is a very common question, but unfortunately there is simply too many variables to accurately answer it. Each Nicapod will deliver approximately 300 puffs worth of vapour, which is equivalent to approximately 25 cigarettes. To give you an idea of the amount of variables involved in answering that question, we have listed a few below:
- Strength of the cigarettes you are comparing it to
- Amount of cigarettes in the packet
- How you smoked the cigarettes (eg, shallow puff vs deep inhale), and it's subsequent absorption efficiency
- Nicotine strength of the Nicapod
- How deeply you are inhaling the vapour from your Nica, and the consequent absorption efficiency of the Nicotine
As you can see, there is simply too many variables to accurately calculate your corresponding equivalent.
This entirely depends on your level of physical Nicotine addiction, and strangely isn't entirely correlated with the strength and amount of cigarettes you currently smoke, though it is a good starting point. The reasons for this is that certain people are more prone to developing a physical dependence on Nicotine than others, and that there are several factors involved with your current cigarette addiction, not just the Nicotine.
Psychological addiction plays a large role in the cigarette addiction that people are afflicted with. If Nicotine dependency was the only addictive element of the smoking addiction, then simply applying an NRT patch would alleviate any desire or need you may have for a cigarette. As anyone who has previously tried to quit using Nicotine patches can tell you, this certainly isn't the case. Another indicator of how psychological factors can influence your smoking habits are environmental "triggers", such as seeing others smoke, drinking, talking on the phone, or certain scheduled times during your work day that you normally have a cigarette break. These are all possible examples of a psychological addiction triggering your desire for a cigarette, and not simply a Nicotine craving. On average, a pack-per-day smoker is triggered by a Nicotine craving for less than 20% of the cigarettes they smoke.
It is very likely that an individual who "only smokes when they drink" has no Nicotine addiction at all, and is only psychologically addicted to the act of smoking when triggered by an association with alcohol. This particular type of "social" smoker had previously no applicable alternative for their psychological only addiction, but with innovative new e-cigarette technology, they are able to subdue their cravings with non-nicotine containing e-liquids.
When determining what Nicotine strength nicapod is going to be best for you, it is important to consider the following factors:
- Nicotine use, although highly addictive, has minimal negative health effects in low concentration dosages, whereas conversely, tobacco kills 2 out of 3 smokers. Therefore, in terms of risk-vs-reward, it is strongly advised to use a moderate level of Nicotine to completely satisfy your cravings, so as to not risk relapsing back to cigarettes. This fact should also be kept in mind if and when you attempt to reduce your level of Nicotine strength over time, as some people attempt to wean themselves off their Nicotine dependency too rapidly, only to relapse during a moment of weakness. Please note, if you relapse, you will continue to have a Nicotine addiction in addition to all the health risks associated with smoking, so many medical experts recommend considering not taking the risk of entirely weaning yourself off Nicotine, and just maintaining a level you're satisfied with as a harm minimization strategy.
- The strength of cigarettes you are used to will not correlate directly with the level of Nicotine you require from nicapods, the reasons for this are mentioned in the previous question. Nicotine is absorbed less efficiently through e-cigarettes than tobacco smoking, so it is possible you will require a higher level of Nicotine in your e-liquid than what you previously smoked.
- Your inhalation preference, being either mouth-to-lung or direct-lung, will also affect your Nicotine absorption efficiency. As the Nicovape Nica is a low-powered device unlike some other larger, more powerful e-cigarette devices, users can comfortably vaporise nicapods containing up to 36mg/mL of Nicotine Salts in strength
- Another way in which e-cigarette users can manage their Nicotine intake is through their frequency of use. Certain users with a high level of Psychological trigger susceptibility may prefer to use their Nicovape Nica frequently, with a corresponding lower level of Nicotine. Alternatively, users who only wish to use their Nicovape Nica when they get a Nicotine craving may opt for a higher level of Nicotine, with a lower frequency of use.

The University of Nebraska's email migration project to Office 365 presents an opportunity for email scams and phishing attempts. Faculty and staff should never respond to emails that they suspect contain malicious links or requests for personally identifiable information such as logins and passwords. UNL will never ask for login or password information by email or in person.
"Events like the email migration project, as well as certain annual events like the start of the academic year and tax refund season are often targeted by online criminals," said Rick Haugerud, Information Services security administrator.

Branch impressive at NFL combine

According to NFL Mocks, Clemson DE Andre BranchAndre Branch
Defensive End
#40 6-5, 260
Richmond, VA
View Full Profile is showing impressive athleticism at the NFL combine.
Clemson defensive end Andre Branch is considered one of the better hybrid linebacker prospects as well, and he showed why that is on Monday at the Scouting Combine by running a 4.62 and 4.68 unofficially in the 40 yard dash. He also had a 1.62 second 10 yard split, which trailed only Bruce Irvin's 1.53.
Branch measured out at 6'4? 259 pounds and has 34 inch arms, so he is an impressive figure whose production could also warrant a first round discussion. He might be a great fit for teams like the Patriots, Ravens, Jets, or really any base 3-4 team.

China's rise as a global tech leader
All eyes are on China as it emerges as a new global leader in technology. Startups are sprouting up in Shanghai and Shenzhen with most successful ones going public at staggering IPO prices. In my recent visit to China, my attempts to connect to the outside world proved to be a challenge. I found this ironic amid the country's exuberant tech scene.
China's efforts to filter online traffic with the Great Firewall means no one can enter apps like Line and Facebook. Even access to Google and YouTube is not allowed. The days of using virtual private networks (VPN) to bypass the firewall are also numbered as authorities have begun to close them down.
The Chinese government has prevented these global firms from operating in the country. Instead, it has allowed Chinese versions of all the platforms mentioned above to flourish. In China, citizens use WeChat in place of Facebook for social media. They navigate with Baidu for searches without Google. People use Youku to watch videos over YouTube. And all have proven very popular and successful in China.
From the outside, these decisions by the government seem like a backward step. Critics say they stifle the chance for technology advancement and global connectedness. But this is not the whole story. Chinese tech companies have already moved beyond relying on the government's protective barrier. Their ability to innovate is what brings me and many other foreign business people here to see technology at the frontier and Chinese home-grown innovation.
How did China, once ridiculed as the land of knock-offs, become a global innovation hub?
First, the government and private firms are serious about research and development (R&D). By 2016, China has become one of the top five countries for spending on R&D. This is on par with France and the Netherlands, as China spent 2.1% of GDP in research. In the same year, Thailand's 0.6% investment pales in comparison.
Many Chinese tech companies such as Alibaba and Tencent now top the list of firms with largest market capitalisation in the world. These firms have not only grown to become renowned for cutting-edge innovations. They have become well-known for entering new fields, from robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to even clean energy.
Often, these companies started out by cloning ideas from foreign firms. Yet, what sets these firms apart is they do not thrive by only replicating or relying on the government. They have moved beyond their old image of counterfeits to the next level of innovation through hard work.
Take Tencent's WeChat, which has almost 900 million users worldwide. Starting out as a social media and chat app, the platform tries to connect the online and offline worlds. Over time, it continues to add new functionalities. Users can talk with friends, order food, call a taxi and book a doctor's appointment without leaving the app. What Tencent has created has helped fuel a cashless society in China that is catching on faster than anywhere else globally.
Another Chinese tech company, MeituanDianping, a deals provider akin to Groupon, was recently valued at US$30 billion. This makes it 10 times more valuable than Groupon, which came up with the concept. This year, the firm opened an offline store where consumers can shop and find fresh seafood using its app. It was an instant hit.
Another factor fuelling the rise of innovative China may partly lie in the success of Jack Ma from Alibaba and other Chinese self-made tech billionaires who have become icons to entrepreneurs. China's steady economic growth that comes with business opportunities and a vast consumer market also helps fund these entrepreneurs' hope and dreams.
But that does not mean Thailand has to copy China to shut foreign firms and use a single internet gateway to oversee online content. Doing so would be disastrous for consumers and hurt businesses more than encouraging innovation. Instead of taking extreme measures, the best answer to innovation is for policymakers to focus on research.
Thai consumers, like Chinese consumers still face the same problems that need to be met through unique products or services. This means there are still business opportunities to enhance the consumer experience. The Thai government should focus on providing a healthy environment to firms for years to come.
Thai firms need to also avoid the copying of intellectual property that has long plagued China's reputation. Counterfeits are still prevalent and can affect businesses large and small. Viable products pitched on crowdfunding sites in the US often appear in China a few weeks later. Even when fake products are cheaper, it comes at the cost of stealing from those who have worked hard to create them.
With this in mind, Thai authorities must protect intellectual property through strict enforcement. This means going beyond raiding pirated DVD stalls once in a while. For an innovative culture to settle, firms need to learn how to take legal precautions too. Businesses will need to develop products that are both unique and hard to replicate.
China's technology is catching on and will surpass the capability of the West. It is important Thailand learns to adapt from its giant neighbour.
Walking the right path towards entrepreneurship needs to happen with R&D, not just replication of technology. The combined effort of all stakeholders from policymakers to laws and enforcement to banks can provide a great tailwind for Thai innovators to have a chance to compete in this fierce global market.

North STAR Awards
North STARs are awarded to outstanding leaders. The North STAR winner is:
Clara Schmit-Gonzalez, director
Code Compliance and Traffic Control, Regulatory Services
The Code Compliance and Traffic Control team nominated Schmit-Gonzalez for how much she cares about her team and how passionate she is about her job:
"Over the course of her time as director, Schmit-Gonzalez has made strides working with the community, made partnerships with external stakeholders and supported staff development. She recognizes the barriers we as traffic agents face, and she alleviates those by:
- Working with the State to rewrite laws to allow staff to gain access to the systems they need to perform their jobs.
- Improving scofflaws.
- Working on increasing the punishment when staff has been threatened or harmed while working in the field.
- Improving our technology systems while we work in the field.
"Focusing on staff development, Schmit-Gonzalez has been an advocate for us to attend training not only for personal development, but for the department. We have been able to attend trainings on facilitation, state driving courses and first aid. In addition to development, Schmit-Gonzalez has been working on improving the technology we use while in the field and has brought in alternative methods of transportation for us in order to do our jobs efficiently. She also is conscientious of our schedules and has worked on accommodating coverage for events and anticipated traffic flow in a timely fashion. One last important note is that she was able to get us reclassified as she recognized we are more than agents, we are ambassadors for the City and for Regulatory Services.
"Communication is a strong suit for Schmit-Gonzalez. Working in a division where shifts are 18 hours, she always manages to inform us of any schedule changes, events, anticipated construction and important policy or procedural updates in a timely manner. She has made communicating with the community a priority. She has attended community meetings and created radio ads to educate people on parking in a snow emergency zone to prevent their cars from being towed.
"Schmit-Gonzalez works hard for us and it is proven every day in the work she does to make us excel as a division and for the betterment of the City."
