 in this subject, so here goes: We have three brains that support us with thinking, doing and being. The Neocortex is the newest brain in our development and is highly specialised, it is involved in higher functions like sensory perception. Then there is our Limbic brain which is responsible for three functions – emotion, memories and arousal, this is an older part of our brain. Finally, there is the Cerebellum which is the seat of the subconscious mind. Every time we learn something new our brain(s) work seamlessly together to forge new connections and here is the good bit… our brain physically changes!
This is so exciting for us because what this really means is that we can all literally change our brain and we need not be stuck with a label as ‘someone who isn’t good at x’. We now know that nerve cells that fire together wire together and this is called neuroplasticity.
So, here’s our challenge to you …
At Pro-Development we would like to challenge you to think about something that you have always wanted to do, but perhaps felt that you couldn’t. Maybe it is a goal you have been holding back on, or skill you would like to develop. Neuroscience tells us we are supernatural beings and our thoughts become things. So if we can change how our brain fires and wires, we can change our reality.
Now that is spooky!
At Pro-Development we want all our clients to be Supernatural. We would love to hear from you if you would like to find out more. Contact us on info@pro-development.co.uk or call us on 01904 628 838
Trackback from your site.Five Finger Death Punch (5FDP)—an American heavy metal band from Las Vegas—has partnered with the Silver Star Families of America (SSFOA) and other military charities to honor the nation’s veterans by promoting resources to assist those dealing with post-traumatic stress disorder.
A non-profit based out of Clever, Mo., the SSFOA’s primary mission is to recognize and support veterans who are wounded, injured, or have acquired an illness related to their service in a combat zone.
Though 5FDP has enjoyed a colossal level of support from the military community over the past several years, Hook notes that the two trips he has made to the Middle East to perform for the troops are an experience forever embedded in his memory.
In 2010, the band released their own cover of the Bad Company hit “Bad Company,” using footage they had recorded while performing for U.S. servicemembers serving in the Middle East.
In their recent release of the video “Wrong Side of Heaven,” 5FDP shares several alarming statistics related to the consequences of PTSD—a condition that can develop after exposure to a traumatic event. The video cites the high rates of homelessness, divorce and suicide among the nation’s wounded warriors.
In addition to the recent video release of “Wrong Side of Heaven,” Hook said that the band will soon launch the website www.5fdp4Vets.com to promote a range of resources for veterans and their families and to solicit donations to support these causes as well.
In closing, Hook noted that although the band’s music and video work could take many forms and artistic directions, they choose to focus their efforts on providing something of value to the military fans that have supported them throughout the years.
“We could easily shoot a music video on stage in front of a bunch of screaming fans and smoke,” Hook said, “but we really aren’t contributing anything when we do that.

Shuttle Computer shipped 638,000 small-form-factor (SFF) computers in 2004, up 16% from the 550,000 XPCs it shipped in 2003, according to company sources.
The designer and manufacturer of small-form-factor (SFF) computers and accessories also continued to increase its focus on its XPC line in 2004, as it phased out its motherboard business of 20 years and formally announced a program to offer complete XPC systems worldwide.
A December 2004 report had Shuttle estimating that 20% of its XPC shipments last year were for PCI Express (PCIe) systems, while 80% were AGP-based. The company also expects to increase its ratio of PCIe systems to 50% in 2005.
Although Intel-based systems accounted for about 65% of the company's XPC shipments last year, and Shuttle’s AMD-based XPC shipments should soon receive a boost as the company is preparing to ship its SN25P XPC, which will be the first nForce4-based small-form-factor solution on the market. The SN25P is expected to begin shipping in volume in mid-February, with the official launch date set for February 22.
Europe and the US will account for 70% of the first shipments.
The SN25P will be the first small-form-factor PC to feature Hypertransport and PCIe. The AMD Socket-939 CPU-based solution will be housed in Shuttle’s P-chassis, which features a 350-watt power supply, the sources added.

Just a lil tweak...to increase emphasis on de angles.
Good job, digicamfan!
- copy and paste of the top of the chimney of the original image on top of every chimney to compensate the strong skew.
i like very much the colors and overall tonality of digcamfan one, it's a real good job.
sergio, thank you for another great lesson in composition! It is really more interesting without that chimney on the left.
aladyforty your makeover really reminds me the vertigo I felt when I took it (I used the 10x zoom so I was quite high!). Very interesting.
here is my try just a bit more crowded...
ferny it's a great idea!!
found searching trumpet in google images. there are several other results.
Heheh, thanks. I actually goofed, as I forgot to reverse the little cement part on the bottom of the ones on the left side, but oh well. Not in the mood to fix it. The point was made.Wednesday, July 29, 2009
WEDNESDAY, July 29 (HealthDay News) -- Screening women aged 20 to 24 for cervical cancer has little impact on rates of invasive cancer up to age 30, according to a study published online July 28 in BMJ, while another study concludes that women with persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infection are at increased risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.
Peter Sasieni, Ph.D., and colleagues at Queen Mary University of London conducted a study of 4,012 women aged 20 to 69 diagnosed with invasive cervical cancer, matching each case with two controls based on age and area of residence, and found that while screening women over the age of 40 reduced incidence of cervical cancer by 60 percent, screening women between the ages of 20 and 24 did not reduce the incidence of cervical cancer at ages 25 to 29.
Philip E. Castle, Ph.D., of the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md., and colleagues conducted a study of 2,282 sexually active women and found that those who tested positive at baseline and after nine to 21 months for a carcinogenic HPV had a 17 percent three-year cumulative incidence rate of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade II+, whereas those with at least one negative test were at much lower risk.
"A validated method of HPV genotyping might allow clinically useful monitoring of HPV 16 and perhaps HPV 18, beginning at age 25 when the risk of precancer becomes non-trivial. For women between the ages of 25 to 30, it will be especially important for clinicians to wait for evidence of persistence rather than act on the first positive test for HPV 16 and 18," Castle and colleagues conclude.
