Article: The software development field has excellent job growth. Software engineering is a particularly desirable focus compared to basic programming. Median software developer income is roughly $80,000 $100,000 a year in the United States. Practical software design and coding should be your first priorities. There are a variety of ways to earn this experience: Teach yourself programming through online tutorials or friends willing to teach you. Take a massive open online course (MOOC). If you already have some experience, collaborate with other programmers on GitHub. A coding bootcamp is one of the fastest ways to learn, if you're willing to invest money and free time. Just make sure to do your research, as some bootcamps have poor reputations in industry and may not be worth the money. Software may be a specialized subject, but your previous career doesn't have to involve computers to give you an edge. Software engineering can rely heavily on analytic skills, problem solving, and teamwork. In addition, familiarity with an industry may help you design software for that industry. Even hobbies and side interests can open up networking opportunities, or at least add passion to your job. Game apps, digital music suites, or business software are all examples If possible, automate portions of your job. Build tools to speed up tasks and make things easier. Software engineering at its core is problem solving. Writing software is just a software engineer's chosen method of solving problems. There are problems all around you already! There's no reason you can't start now. It's very possible to land a programming job after a year or two of side experience, or even a few months with enough dedication. If you already have a bachelor's in any subject, along with some coding skills, consider going straight for a master's in software engineering. Be aware that this is an incredibly expensive option. However, if you have difficulty being self-motivated and joining a community or trying a hobby doesn't stick, this could be the most effective option. Almost every industry needs software developers, so your network from a previous career can be invaluable. Also consider joining a professional association, such as IAENG Society of Software Engineering, the IEEE Computer Society Technical Council on Software Engineering, or the Association for Computing Machinery. Also, look into local meetups or online communities. The software world can be surprisingly small, and finding the right connection can open up a myriad of opportunities.

Problem: Article: Choose a tall vase and place it next to your TV. Add some long branches (bare, leafy, or flowering) into the vase to make it taller than your TV. Choose something that is shorter than your TV, such as a lamp, and place it on the other side of your TV. Other great options include statues, busts, figurines, and picture frames. If you like symmetry, place identical items to either side of the TV instead. Potted plants or topiaries make great choices. Place matching lamps or vases to either side of your TV, and something long and skinny, such as a wooden planter, beneath it. Make sure that none of the items obstruct the screen. If you put plants into the planter, keep them subtle, otherwise they will distract from the TV. Succulents or silk hydrangea blooms work great. Other great items to place below the screen include candle votives or pieces of driftwood. Drape evergreen branches or garlands along the top of the stand, just in front of the TV. Decorate the garland with ornaments and LED pillar candles. If you want to decorate for other holidays, try some of the following ideas: Switch out the pine garland for one made from silk fall leaves. Decorate the garland with pinecones and acorns. Make paper garlands featuring images from whatever holiday you are celebrating, such as hearts, shamrocks, or bats. Drape a white tinsel garland over the TV stand, then decorate it with plastic Easter eggs. Push the electronics towards the back of the shelf to make some room. Fill the space in front of the electronics with books or decorative boxes. You can also install doors onto cabinet, then close them when you are not using the electronics. Examples of electronics include gaming counsels, DVD players, music players, etc. If you don't use these items more than once or twice a week, then consider hiding them. Choose something that is about the length of your TV, and tall enough to fit under the frame. Place this item in front of the TV to hide the stand. Make sure that the item does not obstruct the diode at the bottom of the TV frame, or you won't be able to use the remote. This option only works for standing TVs. Wall-mounted TVs do not have a base on which to stand. Great options include long candle holders, drift wood, and garlands. You can even line up small items instead. Shelving units with open backs and fronts are great candidates for extra storage. Instead of stuffing them with plastic tubs or cardboard boxes, choose decorative storage baskets or boxes that match your decor, and use those instead. You can find beautiful, decorative boxes in craft stores and fabric stores. Some are even made to look like decoupaged luggage! Baskets don't have to be woven. You can use fabric ones, crochet ones, or even metal ones! If you can't find a box that matches your decor, decoupage it!
Summary: Place items to either side of your TV to create balance. Place items to the side and below the TV to frame it. Use garlands and ornaments if you want to get festive. Hide electronics that you don't use often. Place a long, skinny item in front of the TV if you want to hide the base. Fill open shelving units with decorative storage items.

The biggest risk of a Zika infection is not the infection, it is the potential complications that can develop as a result of the infection. Although complications only develop in a small minority of people, they can be severe. The two main complications that are suspected to be linked to the Zika virus are: Guillain-Barre Syndrome (GBS), which is a neurological condition that can lead to potential paralysis. Microcephaly, which is a birth defect that develops when women who are pregnant become infected with Zika. Infants born with microcephaly have an abnormally small head and may have developmental delays as well. Some infants may even die as a result of this birth defect. GBS has been linked as a potential complication of the Zika virus, but there is not yet a proven link between the two. Still, it is important to know the signs and symptoms of GBS if you have Zika. GBS is an autoimmune disorder that may occur following a viral infection such as Zika. It affects your nervous system by damaging the nerve coverings. Symptoms include: Numbness in the lower extremities such as the feet, lower legs, and hands Difficulty moving Numbness and/or paralysis that gradually moves upwards Difficult breathing if the paralysis moves to the chest area Microcephaly in newborns has also been linked to the Zika infection in pregnant women (who then pass it on to their fetus in the womb). Microcephaly refers to an abnormally small head. This condition can lead to developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, and, in severe cases, it may even lead to death. When your baby is born, the doctors will take routine measurements of head circumference (both at birth, as well as at progressive intervals throughout your baby's growth). It is through abnormally small head circumference measurements that a doctor may diagnose your baby with microcephaly. Microcephaly is defined as a head circumference of less than 42cm at full growth. Doctors can use age-based growth charts to determine whether your baby's head circumference fits into the normal range at each developmental stage. If your baby is diagnosed microcephaly, it may be a sign that you have recently been infected with the Zika virus. However, GBS is treatable, so see a doctor as soon as possible if you think you have GBS. Microcephaly cannot be treated, but there are support strategies that may help your child reach as many developmental milestones as possible.
