Insufficient room in your house? Have you got a plan for a brand new add-on for loved ones , or perhaps need to develop a performance stage outside but inside too? Has someone in your home began a brand new business who also requires a spot to turn off everybody and concentrate on the task at hand? Have you been a man that longs for any bachelor pad but you have a family ? The answer: storage pods. It's the actual expandable means to fix these problems with no commitment.
When they aren't the thing for you, they are transportable to get rid of. Or if you have used it but no longer need it, then there will be no harm to your space. Everyone can make use of them in the, especially in ways discussed in the following paragraphs:
Maybe you like adventure sports and do a lot of dare devil stunts. Where do you keep your dirt bikes, skates, bicycles or surf boards if you don't have the space? A simple answer is a storage pod.
Little ones love play time and a storage pod can be easily altered into a play area. This is ideal if you want to keep a sane home, but a happy toddler too. Confining all ride on toys, bikes and running around to this area will leave you with a little control and sanity.
Mothers require their own personal time, as well as fathers additionally. First, let's discuss mothers, that will in all probability have something else happening apart from her regular work duties. A woman's thoughts are always spinning to supply the very best for her children. Simultaneously, in order to focus on the company's matters, the ideal answer is a storage pod, which may be personalized with light bulbs, air conditioning, tables and also the anything that an office would need.
Dads especially always want their time to relax and chill with friends without disturbing the rest of the family. These storage pods are versatile too. Plus if you are worried about the temperature outside, you can install thermostats, air conditioning systems and almost anything you could install in the house, including insulation. This way, you won't feel as if you're in the dog house. If you want to throw a fridge in there, and an electrical system to juice it up, or have your own mini bar, you can choose a storage pod that is large enough to accommodate you as well.
In the event that you're on your own, you may need extra space too, especially if you have accumulated a number of things over the years.
Many times, buying storage pods simply boils down to caring for one's possessions or wanting some time to yourself. We've seen their many uses in this article, and there are plenty more to come. Even commercial businesses have taken advantage of these spaces to make them into productive tools.

The 3-D may be a step up from 'Clash of the Titans,' but critics are panning the sequel as 'relentlessly mechanical.' By Kevin P. Sullivan
Sam Worthington in "Wrath of the Titans" Photo: Warner Bros.
If you've read any Greek mythology, you know that after the Titans' clash comes their wrath. Two years have passed (10 years in movie time), and Sam Worthington is back as Perseus to once again save humanity from the gods who would destroy it.
The makers of the Greek sequel (Greequel?) have cleaned up the messy 3-D from "Clash of the Titans," but according to most critics, "Wrath of the Titans" doesn't do much else to improve upon the original.
Here is our roundup of what the critics are saying about "Wrath of the Titans."
The Story "Now widowed, Perseus is living as a fisherman and raising his son, Helius (John Bell). But upheaval lurks when he's approached by Zeus for help. Apparently, humanity isn't as devoted to worshiping the gods as they were, and the pantheon is in danger of losing its immortality. Armageddon looms. Perseus initially avoids entering the fray, but soon he's thrust into a struggle involving Hades and Ares, who have joined forces and captured Zeus, aiming to siphon off his godly powers." — Claudia Puig, USA Today
Sam Worthington "Maybe it's just my imagination, but Sam Worthington seems to be getting slightly less stiff as an actor. He now smiles occasionally, and he's at least risen to the soulful inexpressiveness of the young Ryan O'Neal. For a movie like 'Wrath of the Titans,' which is basically 'Gladiator' crossed with 'Lord of the Rings' crossed with a special-effects demo reel (call it 'Lord of the Rinky-Dink'), he's the perfect actor. And that's because he never threatens to overshadow all that fire." — Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly
The Action "But this is a movie in which whole sequences consist of nothing but guys fighting stiff computer images. Such scenes would be boring even were they done well, but these scenes aren't done well. There's an elaborate sequence inside a labyrinth-like cave, in which the stone walls and floors are constantly shifting. But even this has no impact, because we can practically see it on a computer screen." — Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
The 3-D "I should have added that the movie is in 3-D. This is not a help. 'Wrath of the Titans' is to begin with a dusty, murky pictorial confusion, not helped by dim underworld scenes, and although I'm sure the focus must be excellent, it had an imprecise feeling to me.

The Final Word "Serving up more action and better visual effects and 3-D than the 2010 'Clash of the Titans,' along with a barely-there screenplay that merely functions to notify Perseus which enemy or monster he should hack or skewer next, this is a relentlessly mechanical piece of work that will not or cannot take the imaginative leaps to yield even fleeting moments of awe, wonder or charm." — Todd McCarthy, Hollywood Reporter

Jewellery That Lets You Create A Number Of Different Looks
By Anonymous on Mar 22, 2012 12:11 pm
The way that Nomination charm bracelets differ from other bracelets is that with traditional bracelets, charms will attach on the bracelets whereas the Nomination charms connect together to make the bracelet- they just clip in. Nomination bracelets can be begun by a starter bracelet which are made-up of lots of simple links connected together that are then replaced by the charms as you progressively buy them (this means that you don't have to purchase all your desired charms at once!).

Treatments to reduce anesthesia-induced injury in children show promise in animal studiesPublic release date: 28-Mar-2012 [ | E-mail | Share ]
Contact: Marguerite Beck marbeck@wakehealth.edu 336-716-2415 Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. March 28, 2012 Recent clinical studies have shown that general anesthesia can be harmful to infants, presenting a dilemma for both doctors and parents. But new research at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center may point the way to treatment options that protect very young children against the adverse effects of anesthesia.
As detailed in a study published in the March 23 online edition of the journal Neuroscience, Wake Forest Baptist scientists explored a number of strategies designed to prevent anesthesia-induced damage to the brain in infants.
Using an animal model, the researchers tested the effectiveness of a fragment of a neuroprotective protein called ADNP, as well as vitamin D3, a low-level dose of anesthetic and aspirin. They found that three of the four strategies tested protected the brain from injury induced by 20 mg ketamine, a commonly used general anesthetic.
"What didn't work was aspirin, which was a surprise because aspirin is known to protect the brain from injury," said Christopher P. Turner, Ph.D., assistant professor of neurobiology and anatomy at Wake Forest Baptist and lead author of the study. "In fact, in our study aspirin actually increased the severity of injury from the anesthesia, possibly because it prevents the generation of substances that may be neuroprotective."
Turner and his team studied rats at ages equivalent to children from birth to age 4.
In separate tests, the rodents were injected with: NAP, a peptide fragment of activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP), 15 minutes before ketamine was administered; two 20-mg doses of vitamin D3, at 24 hours and at 15 minutes before 20 mg ketamine; a non-toxic (5 mg) doses of ketamine 24 hours before a toxic dose of 20 mg ketamine was administered; and a 30-mg dose of aspirin 15 minutes before exposure to ketamine.
The Turner lab found that NAP, vitamin D3 and prior exposure to low (non-toxic) ketamine could all prevent injury from exposure to a toxic (20 mg) level of ketamine. However, aspirin appeared to enhance ketamine-induced injury.
"We designed our studies to give doctors several possible treatment options because not all of these strategies may work in clinical applications," Turner said. "However, because vitamin D3 is already in clinical use, our findings show that it is quite promising with few risks. Further, NAP is currently in clinical trials to diminish the severity of other types of brain injury, so we feel this discovery represents a breakthrough for anesthesia-induced neurotoxicity. However, there may be a critical window of efficacy for NAP, which we need to explore further.
"Of all the approaches that our team studied, using a low dose of ketamine may be both the simplest and most cost-effective, as it suggests children can be pre-treated with the same anesthesia that will be used when they undergo general surgery," Turner added. "In essence, a low-level dose of ketamine primes the child's brain so that the second, higher dose is not as lethal, much like an inoculation."
