I was never notified by MS and second, I did try to find if there where already threads on this but serches came up zero. Obviously others on this thread also did not know.

Don't take it for granted.
But what is linked to balance? Confidence! They are connected in old age...lose confidence and balance will follow and vice-versa. One way to slow down the process is flexibility. Ankle rotation, knee circles, Hip rotation. waist twists, shoulder rotations, various form of arm swings, (gentle) neck rotation (circle,up-down, left-right), Splits (all three) and body folds (both standing and floor). All done daily in roughly half an hour. Don't rush it, easy does it and let gravity do the work where appropriate.

Yep, I received similar treatment when I was a small boy with Auburn coloured, thick tight curly hair.

- Microsoft Teams and SKYPE
Ever since MS took over SKYPE I hadn't really looked at MS TEAMS at all...until yesterday. I was actually looking for a international phone call on TEAMS but I found something else. I found that Skype is available (chat etc.) now within TEAMS. All of my previous conversations on Skype were there in the Skype window. I then wondered if the international call pad was there too. It is! Yesterday I was able to reactivate my previous Skype credit surplus and called the UK via Skype keypad app. A 20 minute call used just under half a Euro. https://calling.web.skype.com/ This part of the Skype call window. However, one does have to go to the TEAMS/Skype setup process and then choose what online account to use for Skype...I chose my MS account. The dial pad appears in the Skype settings which will open a new online 'Skype' tab, enter account details and that's it. After this, I found it only necessary to go the dial pad website and make a call.- Are We Heading Closer Toward Utopia or Dystopia

I am TT so it doesn't conern me. However, I do appreciate that other people like to drink beer etc. and socialise. Perhaps I am wrong but groups usually take care of each other (don't they?) so I think this is probably levelled at the loner. What's going to happen if an 'intoxicated' person is denied a sale? Without a friendly control the loner could cause a problem in the shop and those at the service counter aren't trained in restraining an individual. At Bars etc. they have "bouncers' but ordniary shops do not. Is not Law Enforcement a Police job? Why not have police to do the rounds regularly so as to be ready if need be...maybe I'm asking for too much.- Beauty Queen's Eye-Slant Gesture Sparks Backlash Across Asia

I am no expert on Royalty by any means, but it seems to me that they are more like ambassadors with heritage. They are able to keep in touch or visit nations where perhaps politicians might find it difficult. A way of keeping doors open. I suppose. As to their number, I don't know how many are in the UK's royalty nor how many are really needed but there at least three that I Ithink should lose their titles etc.- Public Anger Grows Over Extended Alcohol Sales Hours

It is a long time ago now, Walking home from getting a Sunday morning newspaper about 100 meters from my house the pain hit me, literally crawled the last 25 meters. I had an IVP and it was determined that I had granules. While in hospital the Doctor said I should as much water as I take, my urine was filtered. After about two days deposits were decreasing and by the end of a week was totally clear. Do hospitals still use IVP (intravenous pyelogram) or are other methods preferred these days? @dddave I hope you recover soon.- Foreigners rally against BBC's ‘Thailand: the dark side’ doc
Living in Thaland beats living in 'BBCland', that's for sure. Yes, Thailand has its problems some physical (and factual) others are from perspective. All countries have a 'good' and 'bad' side and when you leave one for another you are really just changing one set of problems for another. We are all different and our choice depends on many factors.- Charlie Kirk Shooter Arrested.
Condolenses to Charlie Kirk's familiy. What surprised me was the nimber of people on various platforms/outlets who were glad Charlie Kirk had been assassinated. And it seems that some forum members blame him for his outspoken words...whatever ever happened to 'Sticks and stones...'? People have thin skins these days. - Microsoft Teams and SKYPE
