Why isn't my PC
running the way it used
to? No matter how fast
your computer is when you buy it, the speed is
going to decrease over time. The reason
for this is the Windows registry. As time goes by,
your registry becomes corrupt (no matter how
careful you are). The longer you own your PC, the
more problems your registry is going to have. This
results in slower system speeds, frequent freezes
and unexplained crashes. The longer you let it go,
the worse it becomes.
Is it time for a PC
check up? Computers
perform best when they receive regular,
professional maintenance. The
installation and un-installation of software,
hardware, and drivers often leave remnants behind
in your registry, resulting in a tangle of unused
applications, broken drivers, and incomplete and
empty command signals. This mass of
confusion slows down your computer and if not
addressed promptly can lead to serious problems
such as computer freezing, programs not
responding, and system crashes.
If your system is running on
Windows?, your operating system has what?s called a registry.
This registry is what Windows uses to store hardware and
software configuration information, user preferences and setup
information on your computer.
What is a Windows registry?
The registry is the database in your computer
that manages the options and settings for your Windows
operating system. It records and stores the settings for your
hardware, software, user preferences, etc. Whenever you make a
change to your installed software applications, Control Panel
settings, system policies and file associations the changes
are stored in the registry.
Why does the Windows registry
impact the performance of my computer? Over
time the size of your Windows registry grows and errors and
invalid entries begin to collect. This leads to decreased
system performance and an unstable computing environment. Your
computer's speed will continuously decrease and you will
experience more freezes and system crashes.
How do I know if my Windows
registry is corrupt? If you've owned your
computer for any decent period of time (a few months or more)
chances are that you have errors in your registry. The longer
you own your computer, the more errors your registry is likely
to have. Some of the common symptoms of a damaged registry
include decreased system performance, hardware malfunctions,
Windows errors and system crashes.

Full Article: Breastfeeding While Pregnant
Being pregnant doesn’t mean you have to stop breastfeeding your child. Long ago doctors believed it actually took nutrients away from the baby inside you, however that is not the case. Even today we have people that believe this and they will argue with you the entire time. Only you can decide if you should stop breastfeeding your toddler or not. Don’t let someone else make that decision for you.
Reasons to Stop
A few reasons you might want to stop breastfeeding may be if you are feeling constantly drained of energy. Or maybe your child has started to bite. Sometimes your milk will just dry up, this is your body’s way of telling you that it has had enough and to take a break. Mastitis could play a big role in making you stop immediately as well. Mastitis is an infection in the breast when it isn’t expressed enough and gets engorged.
Stopping or Weaning
If you do plan on stopping because you are pregnant, make sure it is for the right reasons. If your child has reached a certain age, it might be best. But never just yank it away from them. Your child could wonder why it is being taken away. Wonder if they had done something or become discouraged about the new baby coming. Some children decide to wean themselves, which is a big help to you and you won’t feel so guilty about it. You can choose to do it cold turkey, or slowly wean him/her off. Cold turkey can have some bad results. Try limiting his/her feeding times to certain hours and gradually as time passes take away more. Your child will quickly stop on his/her own and it won’t be a traumatic event.
Continuing to Feed
If you do plan on continuing to breastfeed while you are pregnant, talk with your doctor about it. Not all the time will the doctor agree with your decision. Sometimes he/she may see something in your health that you don’t. Listen carefully and find out if it is a health reason or simply his/her own belief. If it is the doctors belief, you can always seek out one that agrees with you. Being pregnant is hard enough at times, knowing you have someone in your corner will only relieve the stress. Don’t be surprised if your family and friends want to say something about it and they will probably give you all kind of advice on how to stop and what they’ve read. Nicely explain to them it is your decision and you’ll do what you think is best for your children. Try finding a support group in your area so you have someone to vent to or talk about these issues. Check out if there is a La Leche League near you or online that you can join.
Remember that as long as you take proper care of yourself and your body, you’ll be able to safely breastfeed while pregnant.
