One of our SQL servers was running low on disk space and I needed to quickly find the largest files on the drive to know what was eating up all of the disk space, so I wrote this PowerShell line that I thought I would share:
If you are still only running PowerShell 2.0, it will complain that it doesn’t know what the -File switch is, so here’s the PowerShell 2.0 compatible version (which is a bit slower):
Just change ‘C:\SomeFolder’ to the folder/drive that you want scanned, and it will show you all of the files in the directory and subdirectories in a GridView sorted by size, along with their size in GB, MB, and KB. The nice thing about using a GridView is that it has built in filtering, so you can quickly do things like filter for certain file types, child directories, etc.

Yes - but only to a certain extent. The HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) hormone is a remarkable molecule which is very unusual because it is produced only by the cells that will become the placenta of the developing embryo (trophoblast cells). Once the embryo implants in the uterine lining, these cells start producing HCG. It takes a few days for the HCG hormone to build up in the body to a level, which is high enough for it be detected in the blood or urine of pregnant women. Normally, you do your first pregnancy test (HCG blood test) 14 days after embryo transfer.
At this point, if the embryo has implanted, you will also get a positive urine pregnancy test. The HCG hormone level in the blood doubles every 48-72 h. If the HCG level doubles well, this indicates that the cells of the embryo are dividing well, suggesting that the pregnancy is progressing normally and is healthy. This is why monitoring the HCG blood levels during the first few weeks helps to make sure that the pregnancy is advancing as expected. A drop in HCG level during this time is a sign that the pregnancy is not healthy. Make sure that you measure your HCG level in the same lab each time to avoid discrepancy in the results.
