Best Domain Name Registrar? If you have an idea for a personal web site, or you just want to be the proud owner of yourname.com, the first thing you need to do is register the URL you want with a domain name registrar. Domain names have become quite a commodity these days, but with dozens of companies all fighting for your business, it can be difficult to choose the registrar with the best mix of price, customer service, and added features. This week, we want to know which domain name registrar you think is the best.

It’s been a while since we asked you last, and this week’s major GoDaddy outage got us thinking. With so many top-level domains (TLDs), from .com and .net to .cc and .io available, and with prices all over the map, how do you pick the best from the worst? Maybe it’s customer service, or a great control panel, or maybe it’s something else? Remember, we’re looking for the company that you think is the best for registering a domain name, not for hosting a web site (we’ve covered that already,) even if your registrar offers both services. Let us know which domain name registrar you think is the best in the discussions below!

Hive Five nominations take place in the discussions, where you post your favorite tool for the job. We get hundreds of nominations, so to make your nomination clear, please include it at the top of your comment like so: VOTE: BEST DOMAIN NAME REGISTRAR. Please don’t include your vote in a reply to another person. Nominations emailed to us will not be counted. Instead, make your vote and reply separate discussions. After you’ve made your nomination, let us know what makes it stand out from the competition.

About the Hive Five: The Hive Five feature series asks readers to answer the most frequently asked question we get: “Which tool is the best?” Once a week we’ll put out a call for contenders looking for the best solution to a certain problem, then YOU tell us your favorite tools to get the job done. Every weekend, we’ll report back with the top five recommendations and give you a chance to vote on which is best. For an example, check out last week’s five best office chairs.

The Hive Five is based on reader nominations. As with most Hive Five posts, if your favorite was left out, it’s not because we hate it—it’s because it didn’t get the nominations required in the call for contenders post to make the top five. We understand it’s a bit of a popularity contest, but if you have a favorite, we want to hear about it. 

 

New zinc supplement is a ‘botox-booster’

Featured

Posted on by

A new supplement “keeps wrinkles at bay for 30% longer”, the Daily Mail has reported.

The news is based on the results of a small trial that found that dietary supplementation with “Zytaze” – a combination of zinc and the enzyme phytase – can increase the effectiveness and duration of botulinum toxin (botox) injections.

Botox is a neurotoxin, which means it can disrupt normal nerve function. Neurotoxins can be useful at tiny doses as they can lead to a temporary smoothing of skin, reducing wrinkles. In most cases this lasts for around three months.

There are also several medical conditions that botox can be used to treat, such as benign essential blepharospasm – a nerve condition that causes involuntary closure of one or both eyelids.

Zinc is thought to be required in order for botox to act as a neurotoxin. The phytase contained in this new pill is an enzyme that can reduce the time it takes for zinc to break down inside the body. Combining the two may “boost” the effects of botox.

The authors reported that this caused clinically important improvements for some patients, particularly in people with blepharospasm that had previously not responded well to treatment. However, several participants also experienced adverse effects caused by the botulinum toxin being too effective, such as being unable to close their eyes (lagophthalmos).

Further studies will be required to confirm the findings of this study and to determine the optimum dose. It is advisable to consult your GP before taking this supplement in combination with botox injections.

There is also a new botox alternative on the market called natox (more here) which claims to be a natural botox alternative.

Where did the story come from?

The study was carried out by researchers from Baylor College of Medicine, MD Anderson Cancer Center, the Methodist Hospital and Weill Cornell University, USA. The source of funding for this trial was not disclosed.

However, the corresponding author has a patent pending for the use of zinc and phytase for enhancing the efficacy of botulinum toxin injections, which would suggest an obvious financial interest. The study was published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Drugs in Dermatology.

This story was covered by the Daily Mail and the overall results were reported reasonably accurately. However, the headline writers made a basic error by referring to zinc as a vitamin. In this context it is in fact a mineral. Also, no detail was given to the potential medical applications of this study, such as improving treatment for people with neurological conditions including benign essential blepharospasm or hemifacial spasm (a condition that causes muscle spasms on one side of the face).

What kind of research was this?

This was a double-blind, placebo controlled trial. It aimed to determine whether an oral tablet combining an enzyme called phytase and the mineral zinc could increase the efficacy of botulinum toxin treatments in patients given botulinum toxin to treat wrinkles or facial muscle spasms. The researchers stated that zinc is required for the activity of botulinum toxin. They thought that by increasing the levels of zinc they could improve the efficacy of injections. The researchers aimed to increase the level of zinc with a zinc tablet containing phytase, an enzyme that degrades phytates, which block zinc absorption.

Although this is the ideal study design to answer this question, the trial was small, with a total of 98 participants, with only 77 participants receiving the zinc and phytase supplement. The findings of this trial need to be repeated with more people to confirm the results, and to determine the optimal amount of zinc and phytase.

What did the research involve?

The researchers recruited 98 people who had been regularly treated with one of three brands of botulinum toxin (Botox, Myobloc and Dysport) for the treatment of:

  • facial wrinkles
  • benign essential blepharospasm
  • hemifacial spasms

To be eligible for the trial, the participants’ last three treatment patterns had to be the same.

Participants were randomly assigned to one of three dietary supplements:

  • 50mg zinc citrate in combination with 3,000PU phytase (commercially trademarked as Zytaze)
  • 10mg zinc gluconate (a standard form of zinc supplement available from most health food stores)
  • lactulose placebo (dummy treatment)

The patients were told to take the supplements for four days prior to their botulinum toxin treatment. After treatment, the patients kept diaries recording the treatment effect (scored on a scale from -3 to +3) and the duration of effect.

The trial was supposed to give each participant all three supplements in a random order. After completing the initial treatment, the patients received their normal treatment without any supplementation. This was done to try to ensure that no effect from the previous treatment contaminated the next treatment. They would then receive the next treatment.

However, some of the beneficial effects seen with people in the 50mg zinc citrate group were so dramatic that some participants refused to continue with the trial as they wanted to remain in the zinc citrate group.

The researchers cited an example of a woman who at first had such poorly controlled benign essential blepharospasm that relatives had to drive her to the study as she was unable to see out of one eye. After treatment with the combination of botox and 50mg zinc citrate, she was able to safely drive over 400 miles to the researchers in order to ask for further treatment.

Once such a dramatic beneficial effect is detected, it can be inappropriate to continue the study for two reasons:

  • Any attempt to blind the study goes “out of the window” as it becomes obvious to both researchers and some of the people taking part in the trial who is receiving the active treatment.
  • Medical ethics: in some cases it may be unethical to deny a treatment for someone who would clearly benefit from it.

When the trial was stopped, only 27 patients had received all three supplements. Seventy-seven participants had received the zinc and phytase supplement and at least one other supplement (either the zinc only or the placebo only, or both).

What were the basic results?

The researchers found that the 77 participants who had received the zinc and phytase supplement reported greater treatment effect and longer duration of effect with this supplement. Increased effect was reported by 84% of participants, and 92% of participants experienced an increase in effect duration. No significant change in efficacy or duration was reported after patients received either the zinc or placebo supplement.

The researchers looked to see if the effects were greater in specific subgroups. They found that people aged 65 or older were more likely to report an improvement in efficacy with the zinc and phytase supplement. The zinc and phytase supplement increased treatment efficacy in patients with hard-to-treat eyelid spasms (benign essential blepharospasm), and treatment duration in patients with spasms of the muscles on one side of the face (hemifacial spasm).

The researchers also collected data on safety of the supplement. Five patients had too much botulinum toxin effect when they were receiving the zinc and phytase supplement.

How did the researchers interpret the results?

The researchers concluded: “This study suggests a potentially meaningful role for zinc and/or phytase supplementation in increasing the degree and duration of botulinum toxin effect.”

Conclusion

This small randomised controlled trial has found that dietary supplementation with zinc and phytase can increase the efficacy and duration of botulinum toxin injections. The authors reported that this caused clinically important improvements for some patients, especially those treated for benign essential blepharospasm, where there is regular spasm or twitching of the eyelid. However, several participants also experienced adverse effects caused by the botulinum toxin being too effective.

The findings of this small study will need to be confirmed in more people. The results of this study also raise many questions. It is unclear whether the effects seen are due to the dose of zinc, the type of zinc used (zinc citrate), the presence of phytase or a combination of these effects.

Further studies will be required to determine the optimum combination and dose. Also, it is unclear whether the supplement causes its effect by directly acting on muscle and nerves, or whether it increases the activity of the botulinum toxin.

While this would need to be confirmed by further studies, it is possible that a similar effect could be achieved by increasing the levels of zinc in your diet before having botox therapy.

Supplements do not go through the same regulatory processes as conventional medicines, with monitoring of their safety and effects. It is therefore advisable to consult your doctor before taking this supplement in combination with botulinum toxin injections.

Credit Sesame Adds Social Comparison Tools, Lets You See How Your Debt …

Credit Sesame, the personal finance service for payday loans (and TechCrunch Disrupt alum), which provides free credit scores and other information aimed at helping consumers get out of debt, is today launching a new feature that will allow users to compare their financial situations to their peers’ and the market in order to see where they stand. Not to worry — you won’t be swapping credit scores with your Facebook BFFs here. Instead, the feature lets users see how they compare with others in their age group, income group, and in the same region, allowing them to compare things like total debt and credit usage. (oysterpaydayloans.co.uk)

According to CEO Adrian Nazari, the company uses its proprietary, bank-level technology and security to pull in this aggregated, non-personalized data. And the feature should be a benefit to a service that’s helping people focus on the liability side of the balance sheet, as they say. Being able to see how people like you and near you are spending or saving can motivate you to keep your credit card on ice and focus on your real goal: paying down that debt.

But it’s not just about social comparison, Nazari tells us. The feature can actually help you determine if you’re paying too much for various financial products. ”We evaluate consumers on their credit, on their debt and the terms of their loans so they can see if they are overpaying,” explains Nazari. “They can compare their finances to their peers and the market and get specific action items to outperform both and save,” he says.

In addition, Credit Sesame is also allowing users to now set alerts. “For example, if a consumer wants to save $500 per month on their mortgage,” says Nazari, “they can set an alert and Credit Sesame will monitor the market and tell them when loan terms are available for them to save that amount based on their credit profile.”

The company recently hit 1 million users, which is the first time it’s gone on record about its reach. In June, for example, Nazari declined to talk user numbers. He said then that Credit Sesame was managing $20 billion in consumer loans through its service and was saving its users more than $170 million per month through its recommendations. Today, Nazari says that Credit Sesame is close to $35 billion under system monitoring and management, and has found more than $1 billion in total savings for its customers.

The updated version of Credit Sesame’s service will launch today for all users.

Spring Cleaning Your Home

Posted on by

Spring is here and it’s time to take care of all that accumulated clutter and dirt in your home, but where do you start? Is there any particular way that makes it easier to do spring cleaning?

Indeed there is.

If you follow a methodical pattern, you will clean all areas of your home faster and you may even have fun doing it. Here is how you can go about it.

1. Get rid of clutter
Have you ever tried to clean a cluttered room? It always looks like you are not making any progress; no matter how much you try, the room just doesn’t look the same. Spring cleaning should begin with you getting rid of clutter. Go from room to room and pick up any items that may be on the floor or placed in the wrong place. A good tip here is if it hasn’t been used in 6 months, it doesn’t have to stay in the room. Depending on what it is, toss it in the trash or keep it in storage. Which rooms to start with? The bedrooms and then head towards the common areas. If you clean the common areas first, you might feel lazy about cleaning the rooms you don’t see all the time.

2. Clean your walls
If your walls are dirty, your home never looks clean no matter how much you clean it. You don’t have to paint them every year but you should get a professional to come in and wipe off the grime that they have accumulated in the last year. Because spring cleaning is about getting everything clean, make sure that they have a go at the ceilings as well as all the light fixtures around the house. You may be wondering if you can do this yourself. Yes you can so long as you have the right equipment, but it will take you quite some time. It is easier to call in a professional; they don’t charge that much.

3. Clean all carpets, rugs and couches
These all hold a lot of dust and grime. If you have been regularly cleaning them, your job might be easier. If you haven’t, have carpet cleaners come in and do it. Make sure that everything is dried well so that you don’t get damp in the house.

4. Sort out wardrobes
Spring cleaning is a perfect time to make room in your wardrobe. If something hasn’t been worn in 6 months, think about donating it to charity. That goes for shoes and all other wardrobe items.

5. Get books in order
No matter how careful you are, books tend to wander from shelves over time. Go around the house and collect all of them and then get all your shelves organized.

These are general spring cleaning tips from Cleaners Lancaster but they cover most areas of your home and they will help get most of your spring cleaning done.

You CAN Go Your Own Way: Some Home Business Secrets

Posted on by

It can be both challenging and rewarding to have a home business of your own. Your business will pay off based on the time you invest. It may be difficult at first, but keep trying to see results.

Keep a special business phone line separate from your personal line. You have to keep your professional reputation in mind, you wouldn’t want a kid or someone else not associated with your company to answer the company phone.

Find something within your business. You will not invest as much into franchise business opportunities if it doesn’t appeal to you.

A lot of nearby companies would rather use a local designer to allow for great service and flexibility. This will put you in a leg up on the bigger companies sometimes.

Create a rigid schedule for your work time. If you lack a solid office schedule, you’ll work all day and night. Give yourself some free time and try to work relatively conventional hours. You will still be able to have a decent social life come the weekend.

Network with some home business operators in your area. It also offers you the chance to interact with actual people.

Discuss potential tax write-offs with an accountant to verify which ones can be written off on taxes.Things like work spaces in the home and mileage or office equipment are just two examples of write-offs.

Choosing the right name is important and should not be made from a home business. You will be the one who needs to live with it for a long time. Your business name should be something you with pride and meaning.

Do not be tempted to over claim your deductions that you cannot justify when the time to file for taxes arrives. Don’t claim any items that you use for business.

Be sure you are open to the opinions of other people’s opinions. Everyone has an opinion on how you should run your business.

Let customers know why they should buy from you. Why should you buy from you? This message will close the difference between losing and landing a sale. Be certain to put this ‘why’ question to your website and things like promotional materials.

“Doing” is what makes money, so you must be sure that most of your time is spent getting things done.

Sitting all day at a desk can lead to back problems. You need to make sure to get some exercise every day. Squats or lifting books is a clever way to stay active. Try to get outside for walking or jogging every day.Stay in good physical condition to avoid health issues so that you can continue to enjoy working from home for many years to come.

This kind of server is known as virtual hosting; it is all you will need to host your business website. You will not need a server unless you’re hosting a bustling forum or a bunch of videos on your site.

Don’t get discouraged if at first you’re working tirelessly. It’s easy to think success may come overnight, but if that were the truth, everyone would be wealthy. Building a strong, working foundation is essential to business success. When you build on a firm foundation, your longevity is more secure.

Immunotherapy May Boost Drug Effects in Mesothelioma

Posted on by

A team of cell biologists in the U.S. and China believe they have come up with a new way to treat mesothelioma using a combination of immunotherapy and a cancer drug known as a proteasome inhibitor.


TNFalpha-Related Apoptosis Inducing Ligand (TRAIL) is a protein that is found in most healthy tissue. It has been found to trigger apoptosis or cell death by binding with so-called death receptors inside tumor cells. Healthy cells also have these receptors but they seem to function more like decoys, binding with the TRAIL but not triggering apoptosis. Several clinical cancer trials involving TRAIL have found that, although it can cause cancer cell apoptosis, it is not sufficient by itself to increase patient survival.

A proteasome inhibitor (PI) is a compound that blocks the ability of cells to break down damaged proteins. Several different PIs are being studied for their potential to help fight cancer. Bortezomib, marketed under the brand name Velcade, has been FDA-approved for the treatment of relapsed multiple myeloma patients and for those with a specific type of lymphoma. Another PI called MG132 has been studied in mesothelioma. A 2008 report conducted by some of the same researchers involved in the current study found that MG132 induced some apoptosis in mesothelioma, though not enough to warrant using it as a treatment by itself.

In their new study, “TRAIL and proteasome inhibitors combination induces a robust apoptosis in human malignant pleural mesothelioma cells through Mcl-1 and Akt protein cleavages”, the authors combined TRAIL therapy with either bortezomib or MG132 to treat mesothelioma cells in the lab. Although the mesothelioma cells underwent limited apoptosis when treated with each of these agents alone, when they were treated with a combination of TRAIL and one of the PIs, the cell death was “robust”. Just as importantly, the treatment did not appear to have the same effect on healthy cells. Writing in the open access medical journal BMC Cancer, the authors report, “The robust proapoptotic activity… exhibited a relative selectivity in MPM cells than in non-tumorigenic Met-5A mesothelial cells.”

Mesothelioma is an extremely rare cancer, usually found only in people who have lived or worked around asbestos. It is highly resistant to conventional cancer treatments, largely because it is rarely diagnosed until in its later stages. If the results of the new TRAIL/PI study can be replicated in human trials, the combination may prove me be an effective new treatment for mesothelioma.
