- 1 ball pizza dough (store bought our home made) at room temperature (let sit out for 30 minutes)
- 4 slices of bacon
- 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 4 eggs
- 1 1/2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 1/2 tbsp fresh chives, minced
- 1 small shallot, chopped
- 1/2 cup crumbled goat cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. If you have a pizza stone, allow that to preheat in the oven as well.
Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a skillet until brown. When cool enough to handle, chop roughly into pieces.
Carefully handle the dough, stretching it into a large circle. Place dough onto a lightly floured pizza stone, or baking sheet. Cook the dough round in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove.
Sprinkle the mozzarella and parmesan onto prepared dough. Then add the bacon pieces on top of the cheese. Finally, crack the four eggs onto the pizza. Sprinkle each egg with salt and pepper. Cook in the oven for 12-15 minutes, until the cheese is melted, and the egg yolks are cooked to your desired consistency.
Carefully remove pizza and sprinkle with parsley, chives, shallot, and goat cheese. Let rest for 2 minutes before slicing.
Using a pizza cutter, cut the pizza into squares, about 3x3 inches. Then use your pizza crust as a vehicle to devour those delicious runny yolks! Just sayin'!

Time was when music and art were bit players in business, used to create a pleasant ambience for shoppers or to brighten up dull offices. Today, backed by findings from numerous research studies, organisations are much more strategic in their use of art and music to influence consumer behaviour, staff performance, and ultimately the bottom line.
Creativity can have a powerful effect on the human brain. Viewing art can stir strong emotions and deep thoughts, stimulating the brain in profound and often long term ways, while music affects the brain emotionally simply because specific brain circuits are wired to respond to it.
This has allowed companies to set the stage for the ideal customer experience, with successful hotels, retailers and restaurants investing in art displays and playlist selections that will impact relevant emotions and behaviours. For example, research from the University of Strathclyde suggested that when businesses use music with slower tempos, it encourages consumers to slow down and potentially purchase more. Faster tempos, on the other hand, may increase revenues in businesses that need a quick turnover of customers, for example, fast-food restaurants.
A global study carried out by experiential design and marketing firm Mood Media found that 72 per cent of first-time customers would return to stores playing music they enjoy, compared with just half of customers when the point of sale is silent. With this in mind, organisations need to consider a wealth of factors when choosing what music to play.
“Music can contribute to creating a deep emotional connection between your clientele and your brand through your environment,” says international marketing director Valentina Candeloro. “For example, if you’re a restaurant catering to university students, a thumping beat can be the right choice, but if your core audience is an older clientele, playing music too loudly may drive them away.”
Musical preferences can also vary with different times of day. While the early-morning hustle may be conducive to higher tempos, evening patrons may prefer lower levels of sound and beat that allow for easy conversation. Other elements, such as the tone and message of the background music, familiarity and freshness of the music are also important considerations.
Back in 2003 the findings of a joint survey of 800 employees by the Business Committee for the Arts and the International Association for Professional Art Advisors in the US found that art could help businesses tackle some key workplace challenges, such as reducing stress, which 78 per cent of employees agreed with and boosting creativity, as cited by 64 per cent.
Art has a positive impact on employee engagement and productivity. A study by Dr Craig Knight from organisational psychology consultancy Identity Realisation found that a workplace with art and plants was more productive than one without, concluding that a more aesthetically well thought out workspace is more beneficial to both employees and their employers.
Art makes a statement about a company’s values, it doesn’t require a huge financial outlay; there are talented new artists keen to get their work displayed for a reasonable price, and it can definitely impact the all-important bottom line.
One sector that has used art to influence the customer to great effect is hospitality, as Chris Sheppardson, CEO at EP Business in Hospitality, explains. He says: “The Melia White House Hotel in London provides a free exhibition space for independent artists. Named ARTROOMS, the interactive showcase provides thought-provoking art and allows visitors to scout art news and trends from all over the world. The most obvious advantage of this is that it brings in visitors who may use their other services, whether a drink, dinner or overnight stay.”
The sector, which is focused on engaging with local communities, is also embracing music in different ways. The Mandrake Hotel in London promotes curated sensory experiences through sound massage, to promote deep relaxation and peace, while The Ned Hotel, also in London, promotes emerging artists on Monday nights with a place to perform. In turn it brings in a younger audience and supports a usually quite night in the city.
“Businesses are now looking much more closely at what their local community and guests actually enjoy listening and dancing too,” says Sheppardson. “If it keeps them at the bar for longer, they may drink more and therefore it increases spend.”
According to the ‘Customers 2020’ study by US-based customer intelligence consultancy Walker a firm in the US, by 2020 customer experience will overtake price and product as the key brand differentiator. And as people are increasingly drawn to experiences, businesses will need to get more creative and find ways of harnessing the power of art and music to retain engaged and productive employees and attract new audiences who will spend.

With the June 1st deadline looming, I thought it would be interesting to see why O.J. Atogwe might be worth the money that everyone seems to believe he is not. It is always hard to put a factual spin on an opinion, especially regarding financing for an NFL team. I don't think he is worth this much money, but that isn't the point of being a devil's advocate. So let the convincing (or lack thereof) begin.
Hit the jump to continue.
It was tough for me to get enough statistics that actually make it worthwhile, but one thing TST has taken a good look at recently are the stats presented by Advanced NFL Stats. I'll be taking a look at the past four years to see how O.J. has performed against the competition at the same position he plays. Let's make use of the handy-dandy chart feature first though...
|2006||1.17 (14th)||30.6 (24th)||1.08 (23rd)|
|2007||1.41 (3rd)||38.0 (7th)||1.08 (21st)|
|2008||1.26 (7th)||51.6 (3rd)||1.17 (17th)|
|2009||1.00 (22nd)||31.6 (27th)||1.32 (11th)|
Just by glancing at these numbers, you can tell a couple of things. First off, Atogwe has 'improved' his tackle factor (TF) every year. That means he gets more tackles then the average amount at his position. That isn't necessarily a good thing, considering a free safety isn't normally supposed to be a tackling machine, but take from it what you will. These past few years he has had pretty good stats. It's hard to measure how much being on a bad team influenced OJ, or how a change in defensive scheme brought his numbers down. Since I'm arguing for him, I will suggest that this was merely an 'outlier' year and that his past seasons suggest he is capable and able to play at a much higher level. Considering the Rams will most likely improve this next year (we can only hope) one can reasonably assume his ability to play at a higher level will increase. Many people say that Atogwe is not a Top-5 or even Top-10 safety, but these numbers clearly show that Atogwe is one of the better safeties in the league, quite capable of being one of the best.
Next are his actual stats. They are compared against some of the big names today, such as Troy Polamalu, Ed Reed and Darren Sharper (he's thrown in there just because he's also a free agent, and whatever deal he gets is reflective of OJ's).
As the Forced Fumble and Interception charts show, Atogwe numbers are absolutely comparable to that of Ed Reed's, Troy Polamalu's and Darren Sharper's. Over the past four years, O.J. has created at 32 possible turnover situations. This is more then all three of them. In fact, Atogwe has more forced fumbles then all three combined over the four year period. We've already taken a look at the fact that the amount of tackles he has per year is above-average for a free safety (and like before, you can decide for yourself whether that is a good or bad thing) and the other fact is that he is an absolute ball-hawk safety. No other team can say that their free safety statistically creates a turnover opportunity (and a chance to get the ball with good field position, since this Rams offense obviously needs all the help it can get) every other game and that sort of play making ability greatly helps this young defense.
Next, we should take at his paycheck and compare it to other safeties. For that, I'll be using USATODAY.com. Quickly glancing at 2009's salaries for safeties shows that Oshiomogho Atogwe was the 4th highest paid safety behind Adrian Wilson (7.041 million), Troy Polamalu (6.5 million) and Ed Reed (6.404 million). Also, a quick note, keep in mind these are cap values. I'm not salary expert when it comes to the NFL, but I am aware there is no cap this year. How that affects these values, I'm not sure, but feel free to draw your own conclusions. O.J's cap value was exactly $6,342,021. Besides the fact that a somebody playing a game makes that much money (it's sickening), his paycheck really isn't that eye-opening. His paycheck is comparable to players Ed Reed, Troy Polamalu, Chris Hope and Kerry Rhodes. These are players that statistically he is comparable to, so it doesn't seem outrageous to assume he could command a 5 million plus dollar contract.
In conclusion, the Rams of old made a name for themselves because they used to let defensive players go, only to draft or find sub-par replacements. While this front office and coaching staff are worlds better, you can't help but wonder if they are making the same mistake. Should they be worried about paying one person on the team that much? Of course! Any player with that high a salary is always at risk to make the front office look like the Raiders. But if they didn't think he deserved that much money, they shouldn't have franchised him- plain and simple. Who knows how much Atogwe believes he is worth, but looking through all this data, I can't find a reason not to think that he deserves somewhere in the ballpark of how much he was paid last year. Looking through the salaries, I'd be insulted if the Rams offered me a 1.26 million dollar contract as well- even James Butler was paid almost twice that. That's all that I can throw behind this argument. Agree or not, the Rams definitely have some decision making to do.

Part of our mission at The Corning Museum of Glass is to tell the world about glass. One of the ways we do this is outreach to specialized communities. At The Studio, we have many such programs: Road Scholars, Veterans Day Glassblowing, Beads of Courage, Expanding Horizons, art classes for Corning’s alternative high school, participation in a local Maker’s Faire, to name a few. Working with specialty groups is fulfilling for us as instructors because we can really tailor teachings around others’ needs.
Most recently, The Studio has partnered with the CMoG Education Department to participate in a CMoG/Rockwell Museum co-sponsored event, Meet Me at the Museum.
Meet me at the Museum is one of the many outreach programs the museum offers. It uses CMoG and Rockwell resources as a platform for hosting people with dementia and their caregivers. Meet Me at the Museum tours are offered in partnership with the Alzheimer’s Association, Rochester & Finger Lakes Region and the Rockwell Museum. Here is how we describe this program:
Meet Me at the Museum is a free social program for individuals with dementia and their caregivers. Specially trained docents will highlight pieces in the Museum’s collection through a colorful presentation to stimulate conversation and reminiscence. The experience concludes with a small reception.
Currently, there are over five million Americans living with dementia. Programs like this are beneficial for both people with dementia as well as their caregivers, helping to create positive life experiences for both groups. Creative activity has been shown to reduce depression and isolation in dementia patients[i] and can be a respite from stress for caregivers[ii].
This type of programming is offered at many museums around the country and often follows the same basic outline: a tour with specially-trained docents followed by a reception. In addition to this type of program, Meet Me at the Museum incorporates a hands-on component. This is where The Studio comes in. This past December, The Studio’s crew made candy ornaments that look like stained glass.
This was fun for everyone involved and tied nicely with both our glass collection and the special glass ornament demo this group received from flameworker Eric Goldschmidt.
Anyone can make these ‘stained glass’ candy ornaments at home — you don’t need to be an expert glassmaker or have any special equipment. We used an egg-shaped ornament for our sample to help ring in the spring, but you could use any simple shaped cookie cutter for this project.
Supplies you’ll need:
- Hard candy (we used Jolly Ranchers)
- Metal cookie cutters
- Parchment paper
- Cooking spray
- Baking sheet
- Rolling pin
- Plastic bags
Step 1: Prepare candy. Smash Jolly Ranchers into smaller bits. This allows for more selective coloring.
Step 2: Prepare the cookie cutter and baking sheet. Place parchment paper on a cookie sheet. Spray a small amount of non-stick cooking spray on the inside of the cookie cutter and place onto parchment paper.
Step 3: Place your candy into the cookie cutter. Fill the cookie cutter to about a ½-inch high. You can be as simple or as complex as you like.
Step 4: Bake! Place your candy (cookie cutter and all) into a 400-degree oven and bake for five minutes or until the top surface is completely level.
Step 5: Remove from oven and begin to cool. Immediately out of the oven, you can swirl the colors together with a toothpick and then return the candy to the oven to re-level the candy. Once the candy has cooled a bit, you can use the same toothpick to create a hole in the top of the candy to hang your ornament.
This project is great for a crisp spring day, but if it’s humid you’ll find the final candy ornament is a bit sticky and drippy.

Youth urged to take advantage of community tourism
Panellists at the Global Shapers Bridgetown Hub Youth Forum on Wednesday morning.
One avenue for young people to secure steady employment is community tourism.
This was the view expressed during the Global Shapers Bridgetown Hub Forum by Vice President of the Barbados Entrepreneurship and Tourism Association, Donnya Piggott, who is also an advocate for LGBT issues.
The panel, which included behavioural specialist Imran Richards; incoming Curator of the Global Shapers Bridgetown Hub and President of the Barbados Vagrants and Homeless Society (BVHS), Kemar Saffrey; and economist and consultant, Jeremy Stephen, spoke at length on issues affecting the economy and the ways in which youth can tackle them.
Piggott said the time has come for Barbados’ tourism product to be more diversified and urged young ones to capitalise on platforms such as Airbnb as a host or under the new travel and experiences category, as a way to earn income for themselves and foreign exchange for the country.
“There are so much more opportunities that exist on platforms such as Airbnb that we are not tapping into because it upsets the status quo and these are things that keep us behind. Imagine this on a national scale and this can contribute to the foreign exchange this country so desperately needs,” she asserted.
Piggott noted these avenues have the potential to help young and middle-class people better themselves and she urged them not to be dissuaded by large hoteliers who believe “that the money is not supposed to be in our hands.”
She said as it currently stands, there are many persons employed within the formal tourism sector who are not reaping the benefits.
"The benefits of community tourism are so vast. What it does it that it allows each individual to be an entrepreneur. What the situation is only a few of us benefit from tourism and many work in tourism but are not reaping the benefits that tourism provides.
"If we do it [community tourism] on a national scale and if we are able to make this a national effort so that each us can contribute to making foreign exchange for this country I really feel that the future of Barbados can be very bright."
Piggott added if each individual makes an effort to re-brand Barbados’ tourism product to a more community-based one, eventually community tourism can be the “saviour of the Barbadian economy”.

The objective is that the 2022 accounts mark the limit "below" and improvements related to the update of the REF are incorporated
The Minister of Finance,
Maria Jesus Monterowill defend on Thursday in Congress the non-financial spending limit -known colloquially as the spending ceiling- for next year, which is the step prior to processing the
State's general budgets (PGE) of 2023.
From then on and until Montero takes the bill to the Lower House, at the end of September or in the first days of October, the Government is going to open a
contact rounds with the other political forces to gather support and carry out the Budgets with a comfortable majority.
For the Canary Islands this year there is a circumstance that can make a difference: NC, training with which the Government has agreed
island upgrades in the two previous budgets, -2021 and 2022- it no longer has a presence in Congress since Pedro Quevedo gave up his seat to María Fernández (CC) in July in compliance with his electoral agreement.
The Government has advanced its intention to include CC, which now has two seats, in the round of contacts, but it will be difficult for it to agree to negotiate with them an increase in
canary games that are included in the bill, unless their two votes are essential to approve next year's accounts.
Although in the pre-election year it is foreseeable that the parties that make up the investiture bloc may threaten to withdraw their support from the Government, even that some of them distance themselves, in Moncloa they are convinced that they will maintain a
similar majority to the one that allowed them to carry out the PGE_in the two previous years, and a priori they do not show special willingness to make concessions for which CC can take credit.
Therefore, the scope of the
financial sheet of the islands in the 2023 Budgets will be subject to the
direct contacts between the Government of the Canary Islands and the state.
In this scenario, the Canarian Executive has set itself the goal that the current budget for 2022, which they consider "historic" for the archipelago,
mark the limit "below" in the new accounts, and that improvements related to the
REF updatein addition to consolidating items in different areas such as immigration or poverty, and programs related to infrastructure, tourism modernization and the energy model, in line with the measures approved by the Council of Ministers.
Apart from the direct dialogue between governments, the Canarian deputies of the socialist parliamentary group in Congress intend to carry out a task of
interlocution with the Ministry of Finance, especially when incorporating
possible amendments to the bill. The priority in this sense is that everything that has to do with the REF and the Statute of Autonomy be respected.
In any case, the regional Executive seeks to tie up the large figures of the Canarian file before the 2023 PGE bill reaches Congress, because modifying it later through amendments is quite
more complicated since it implies subtracting resources from other budget items.
For its part, CC maintains
"fully available" to negotiate with the Government its support for state accounts, on the condition that these are adjusted "to strict compliance with the REF" and reflect the recovery of items linked to
bilateral agreements of cooperation that have been disappearing from the Budgets, such as hydraulic works or educational infrastructure.

The 2019 Nissan Pathfinder
For more than 30 years, the Nissan Pathfinder has been the perfect ally for families. And that’s more true than ever for 2019. The Nissan Pathfinder has improved over the years to become the versatile vehicle it is today.
SET OFF WITH PEACE OF MIND WITH THE 2019 NISSAN PATHFINDER
At Nissan, you don't build a vehicle designed for the family without emphasizing on-board safety. This is one of the great advantages of the 2019 Pathfinder. Thanks to a panoply of technologies gathered under the Nissan Intelligent Mobility range, the 2019 Nissan Pathfinder integrates several driver assistance systems such as intelligent cruise control, blind spot warning devices and a 360-degree camera that simplifies greatly your movements in traffic and your maneuvers in reverse. The 2019 Nissan Pathfinder can even go so far as to brake on its own if it detects an impending frontal collision and no action is taken by the person behind the wheel to avoid it. With the 2019 Pathfinder, Nissan sees safety in a whole new light. Instead of simply protecting its occupants well in the event of an impact, the Pathfinder organizes itself so that the impact simply does not happen! Besides safety, the Nissan Pathfinder makes long family trips easier thanks to systems like EZ Flex, which allows easy access to the third row of seats. It is also possible to control integrated screens on the headrests of the front seats to entertain the kids on the road to vacation!
THE 2019 NISSAN PATHFINDER IS READY TO GO TO WORK
The Nissan Pathfinder is perfect for family trips, but it's also for those who want to get down to business. All versions of the 2019 Pathfinder are equipped with a 3.5-liter six-cylinder engine producing 284 horsepower and 259 pound-feet of torque. This allows the Nissan Pathfinder to benefit from exemplary road handling while offering an impressive towing capacity of up to 6,000 pounds. The Pathfinder also manages to maintain a frankly impressive fuel consumption of 11.6 L / 100 km in the city and 8.5 L / 100 km on the highway. This is notably made possible by the use of a continuously variable automatic transmission, also standard on the 2019 Pathfinder.
Come see the 2019 Nissan Pathfinder today at L’Ami Junior Nissan!

|SteelSeries Sensei [RAW] Frost Blue Edition Gaming Mouse|
|Wednesday, 12 June 2013|
SteelSeries Sensei [RAW] Frost Blue Edition Gaming Mouse Review
SteelSeries's critically acclaimed Sensei gaming mouse is back in white! The new [RAW] edition is an attempt to conquer the performance lead in the mid to high-end gaming mouse arena. The [RAW] edition closely resembles the original Sensei in terms of aesthetics. However, a lot of the clever technical features are gone.
This is the mouse for you if you can do without the LCD display and customizable LED lights of the original.
Although SteelSeries dubbed it [RAW], it is still a mouse with a wealth of features. It still comes with one of the best customization suites and has all of the buttons found on the original design, and the sensor has not been altered because Avago's ADNS-9500 is still one of the best laser sensors around... techPowerUp

Sign-waving protest rallies are planned tonight at several downtown Jacksonville locations as hearings continue into the lawsuit over the city’s August 30th closed primary.
Both State Attorney Angela Corey and Public Defender Matt Shirk will face only GOP voters on that date due to the presence on the ballot of controversial write-in candidates.
More than 400,000 voters who are not Republicans have been effectively disenfranchised in the election. There’s been much more outrage about Corey’s race than Shirk’s, although it appears the same tactic was used – more about that here.
The lawsuit filed by civil rights icon Bill Sheppard alleging voter suppression is being adjudicated by Clay County Judge Richard Townsend, who has until June 24th to issue a ruling (that is when ballots will be printed).
Meanwhile, the group New Florida Majority says activists will wave signs at 5pm at cars heading out at rush hour at the corners of Union and Newnan, Pearl and State, Jefferson and Water, and Main and Forsyth Streets.

Automaker Hyundai will begin building the hybrid version of its Santa Fe sport utility along with the first electrified Genesis GV70 SUV as the Montgomery, AL factory expands its U.S. production to include electric vehicles. To accommodate the growth, Hyundai will invest $300 million and create 200 jobs at its only U.S. manufacturing center.
This latest milestone for Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama (HMMA) was made official after the recent signing of a project agreement with Governor Kay Ivey at the state Capitol. As part of the project, HMMA will begin plant expansion projects ranging from additional warehouse space to enhanced assembly processes to support electric vehicle production.
“Hyundai Motor Co. is taking its first steps in electric vehicle production in the United States. We are excited to showcase our team members’ skills in producing electric vehicles here in Alabama,” said Ernie Kim, HMMA’s president and CEO.
“Over the years, we have developed an enduring partnership with Hyundai, and it’s been great to witness the profound economic impacts of the company’s continued investments in Alabama,” said Gov. Ivey. “Hyundai’s new growth plans in Montgomery will help prepare the state’s auto industry for the EV revolution while also aligning with our strategic initiatives such as Drive Electric Alabama. This is another major milestone for our friends at Hyundai.”
Production of the Santa Fe Hybrid will begin in October 2022, and the electrified GV70 will roll off the assembly line in December 2022. These clean mobility vehicles will join the Elantra sedan, Santa Fe and Tucson SUVs and the Santa Cruz sport adventure vehicle on the Montgomery assembly line.
The introduction of EV production at HMMA positions the Montgomery plant for the future in an industry that is rapidly shifting its production focus to electric models, according to Greg Canfield, Secretary of the Alabama Department of Commerce.
“With this EV expansion, Hyundai is again demonstrating that Alabama’s auto sector is concentrating on what the future holds for the industry and that it will continue to evolve to meet all challenges,” said Canfield. “This is an exciting development both for Hyundai and for our dynamic automotive manufacturing sector.”
Hyundai has invested $1.8 billion in the Alabama operation, which currently employs over 3,200 full-time workers. The addition of the Santa Fe Hybrid and the electrified GV70 will strengthen HMMA’s position as a preferred employer in Montgomery and continue to increase high-quality jobs at the plant and throughout its supplier base.
Cedric Campbell, chair of the Montgomery Area Chamber of Commerce, pointed out that HMMA has expanded over 15 times since April 2002, when the automaker announced its plans to make the city its North American industrial home.
“Partnership and teamwork are key to this kind of economic growth, and we are grateful for the impact this kind of investment will have on the entire region,” Campbell said.

PSN is down on March 16, 2015 and has been for the last few minutes. No official statement as to why the service is down has been released yet.
The only thing we can see bringing the PlayStation network down would have to be too many people trying to download something at the same time. This could more than likely is the case due to the fact the DriveClub update 1.12 is now available to download.
PSN is down March 16 maybe because of the new DriveClub 1.12 PS4 update, which is 600 MB. The update now adds support for next week’s DLC and single player replays.
The full patch update for 1.12 can be seen over on PlayStation LifeStyle, new features include pause, rewind and fast forward using the controllers L2 and R2, 50 replay slots are available, hide the UI and use the #PS4share button to save and share your favourite moments or races and much more.
It seems PSN is down in most parts of the United States, there are no scheduled maintenance updates so our only guess is the DriveClub update is slowing things down a little where gamers are trying to download it.
Is PSN down for you? If so please let us know your location.

Are you losing a lot of hair? It’s time to act and take care of your hair and health before it’s too late. It gets sometimes tricky to figure out why you are losing hair, particularly in women. Professional expertise from a doctor will help you know the root cause of hair loss.
Most of the time, minor hair loss is considered normal and neglected often. This is the body’s sign that new hair is replacing the old hair. The best way to know whether it’s minor or major hair loss is to pay attention to your hair brush or shower drain.
How many strands of hair loss is considered normal?
50 – 100 strands of hair loss are considered normal. If you are losing a lot of hair, it is time to analyze what is causing hair loss. In the case of men and women, it has been observed that there are different causes of hair loss.
How to check for hair loss?
Well, it’s time to brush your hair and check for hair loss. It’s a good idea to simply pay attention to what you see typically on your hairbrush when you comb your hair.
There are different signs which indicate how to check hair loss. If you are still confused, follow these simple signs and tests to check for hair loss.
|How to check for hair loss?
|Check for hair pull test
|Check for quality of hair
|Check for density of hair
|Check for hairline – receding
|Check for thinning of hair
You can also book an online consultation with one of our expert doctors at Life Force Homeopathy who will give you an overall view on how to check for hair loss. Our doctors also work to find out the cause behind this. Well, Life Force Homeopathy does not stop here! The expert doctors will not only check for the cause and diagnosis but also provide you with the right solutions for hair loss to give you beautiful and dense hair with NO HAIR LOSS!
Check for the hair pull test
Yes, this is a great way to check for hair pull tests. Make sure that you do not pull out your hair vigorously; instead, be gentle with your hair strands. Hair loss can be severe in some cases when your hair falls even on touching the scalp or by running your finger down the hair. There are chances that you might see some strands fall out even on a touch of the scalp. This indicates hair loss from roots due to weakened hair.
Check for quality of hair
If your hair is dry, they are more prone to breakage. Too oily hair is more prone to attract dust and grime, which will clog the pores and cause hair to fall. Your hair should have a balanced condition with optimum moisturization of the scalp and hair strands to keep it healthy and growing.
Check for density of hair
Hold your hair in hand and check for the density of hair. Check your ponytail or braid. If it’s thinner, it means you have low density. Thicker and denser hair has more chances to grow out long and beautiful.
Check for hairline – receding
Receding hairline occurs with age not only in males but also in females. It’s time to check your hair. Make sure not to miss out on a hairline; check before it’s late. The chances are very low of reversing the hairline at times. But, there is a solution for this. Kickstart with castor oil and check your hairline in a couple of weeks. Small tiny hair known as vellus hair can be seen cropping on the scalp. You can check for the hairline to observe the hair cropping up. If you still do not notice hair cropping up, consult one of our expert doctors at Life Force Homeopathy.
Check for thinning of hair
This is very important to check for thinning of hair when it comes to hair loss. If you notice diffuse hair loss with small tiny bald patches, particularly on parting the hair, you must get treated for it.
So, check for hair loss before it’s too late. Hair is a crown you always wear and do not want to lose! Consult one of our expert doctors at Life Force Homeopathy who will guide you through the entire process and help you with the recovery from hair loss by offering the right treatment.

Hurricane Harvey wreaked Texas-sized devastation on the greater Houston region, but the larger-than-life spirit of Texas residents helping each other through the hard times is a powerful silver lining.
Being especially in tune with the complexities of destruction caused by flooding, real estate professionals are at the forefront of the ongoing aid effort: the state association’s Disaster Relief Fund was mobilized before the storm had subsided, and the leadership of the 37,000-member Houston Association of REALTORS® (HAR) launched into gear while people were still being rescued. In November, with the help of a REALTOR® Party Diversity Initiative Grant, HAR brought together and shared recovery resources with its multicultural industry colleagues in a program called “Road to Recovery: Life After Harvey.”
Kenya Burrell-VanWormer of JPMorgan Chase, who is HAR’s recently installed 2018 Chair, explains point-blank: “Natural disasters do not discriminate. Harvey affected everyone!” The inspiration for the event, she continues, came from an all-day relief effort sponsored by the Houston Black Real Estate Association, in which she, her 9-year-old daughter, and a fellow HAR Director participated right after the storm. “It was such a moving experience, and it prompted us to plan a program of our own at HAR. As REALTORS®, we know that our professional value is in our information and knowledge. As leaders, we realized that by engaging our fellow industry professionals in all the local minority associations, we could provide these valuable resources which they, in turn, could share with their clients and colleagues and friends.”
The Directors of HAR agreed that such an event was needed, and the attendance numbers bear out their vision. With the support of President and CEO Bob Hale, and the tireless staffing of TREPAC Director Karen Driscoll, HAR developed a half-day program featuring a line-up of candid, open-minded industry speakers who covered topics ranging from mold remediation, to available funding for homes and businesses, to tax relief, to dealing with the emotional aftermath. HAR invited members of the local chapters of the National Association of Real Estate Brokers (NAREB,) the Asian Real Estate Association of America (AREAA,) the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP,) the Hispanic Mortgage Lender Organization (HMLO,) and the Veterans Association of Real Estate Professionals (VAREP,) as well as the Houston Independent Real Estate Brokers Association (HIREBA) and the Houston Black Real Estate Association (HBREA). Nearly 300 individuals attended, enjoying a complimentary lunch and a supportive, informative, collegial afternoon. Many received door prizes of gift cards to grocery and department stores; one even won an iPad. All were heartened by a report from an industry analyst showing that despite Harvey, the outlook for the regional real estate market was stronger than expected.
“In our industry, we can all admit to short attention spans, constantly checking our phones,” laughs Burrell-VanWormer, “so I think it’s a clear measure of success that the audience was totally engaged with the speakers, and paying serious attention to all the highly relevant information.” At a simple reception for committee members following the event, she adds, the question on everyone’s lips was “Ok – what next?” The follow-up is still in development, but one thing is clear, she notes: “Houston is the fourth largest city in the country, and we have one of the most diverse populations in the nation. As a city, we embrace diversity, as an association we embrace diversity, and with the continued support of the REALTOR® Party, we will continue this mission as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Fair Housing Act in 2018.”
To learn more about how REALTORS® in the Houston region are helping neighbors, clients—and each other—survive the effects of Hurricane Harvey, contact 2018 HAR Chair, Kenya Burrell-VanWormer, at 713-628-8383.

and feeling miserable, so we found BCH near where we were staying. Just
wanted to take the time and comment on what a pleasant experience we had.
Everyone was super nice and friendly. Reception, nurse, physician. Maybe
it is the beautiful Rocky Mountains that puts them in a good mood, but
thanks for being so nice and taking good care of our son.

Carter also claimed the Jumbo Whiskers Award for the largest catfish of the evening with his 11.12-pound behemoth. Peyton had never fished the event prior to this year and Carter had just made his debut the previous year.
Defending champions and Glasgow natives, Jason Flaten and Cole Plouffe put together another solid night of fishing, following up last year’s championship with a weight of 32.94 pounds. Bo Boreson and Vance Anderson finished just a half-pound back of third place with 32.41 pounds. Brady Flaten and Jason Molstad rounded out the top five with a weight of 31.64 pounds.

Three native local teams finished sixth to eighth respectively: Brendan Waarvik and DJ Elletson (30.94), Joel Smith and Marc Kloker (30.35), Timm Canen and Aimee Kloeckner (30.20) all weighed in more than 30 pounds making it the first time in Cat Classic history that eight teams could make the claim of catching 30-plus pounds.
Montana Cats Circuit anglers; Rod Seder, Billings, Rob Seder, Hardin (28.96), and Bobby Wise, Billings, and teammate Robert Wise, Billings (28.85), claimed the last two spots in the all-important top 10.
A record tying 28 teams weighed in 20-plus pounds and an all-time Montana Cats Circuit record 78 teams weighed in fish.

SAGINAW COUNTY (WJRT) -
(06/20/14) - Attorney-client privilege. We hear the phrase in news stories, television shows, and movies that deal with court matters.
The attorney-client privilege is a rule that preserves the confidentiality of communications between lawyers and clients.
That rule is at the heart of a lawsuit in Saginaw County, where a lawyer and his client were videotaped in a room inside the jail.
The audio between the attorney and client was not recorded, but they were videotaped, and the attorney's attorney says that's a violation of the 4th Amendment.
It was in March 2012 when attorney Laurence Long was meeting with his client, Diane Messing, who was charged operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated third offense.
The meeting took place in the arraignment video room, where defendants are charged. During the meeting between Long and Messing, they were the only two people in the room and were videotaped on a different camera in the room. The deputy who filed the police report states Messing kissed Long twice on the mouth, and they also hugged.
When Circuit Court Judge Robert Kazcmarek was told of the interaction between the two, he requested an investigation of Long and curtailed his court-appointed attorney standing. Attorney Victor Mastromarco says the recording violates the Fourth Amendment, which prohibits unreasonable searches and seizures.
"All the evidence that has come in so far shows that the sheriff's department was doing this without any of the attorney's knowledge, the fact that it was a videotape and not audio doesn't matter and the law is very clear on that," Mastromarco said.
While attorneys can meet with clients in the jail in rooms where there are no cameras, the police report indicates the deputy wanted Long and Messing in a room where there was a surveillance camera because "Long came in five times in one week to see Messing."
The court also said there was no valid penological interest, meaning safety interest or otherwise, in doing this," Mastromarco said.
Mastromarco says Long was not aware he was being recorded.
"If the attorney and client go into a room where they know they are being observed, that's one thing, but if they are doing it by cover of night, or cloak and dagger, that's exactly what the 4th Amendment is designed to prevent," Mastromarco said.
While U.S. District Court Judge Thomas Ludington has recently ruled the case can proceed, Saginaw County has appealed that ruling to the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals.
When ABC12 contacted the Saginaw County attorney, Friday, she declined to comment on the pending litigation.

As a society we are fascinated by true crime. We watch documentaries on serial killers, programmes following police forces and homicide units. We are interested in forensics and crime scene investigations and we find people who kill intriguing. For most of us, taking the life of another out with self-defence is an act we cannot imagine. We have an innate brake system, something which tells us that this is an act we just cannot carry out. Those who seemly do kill without conscience, guilt or remorse and do this repeatedly peak our curiosity and our desire to understand how and why.
Inside The Mind Of A Psychopath
In psychiatry being a psychopath is not a diagnosis. It is a term used more commonly in forensic science and is used very loosely in the media to describe people who commit acts which are particularly gruesome or brutal.
A psychopathic personality is one which displays a number of behavioural traits which range from being cunning and devious to manipulative and charming. Ted Bundy is a typical example of a psychopathic killer. He was an individual who manipulated his victims into trusting him by pretending he was injured.
He could change his persona to fit almost any environment and he was highly intelligent with a great deal of planning going into his attacks, at least during his early activity. Most assume a psychopath is an insane, mad individual who can be spotted in the crowd, but the reality is quite different. As explored in depth in his excellent book Inside The Mind of a Psychopath, writer Paul Sorensen gives a true insight into what it really means to be a psychopath.
He describes how to recognise a psychopathic personality and the research into the psychopathic mind profiling some of the worst known psychopaths in history.
The most common feature within the mind of a psychopath is a lack of empathy and a lack of true feelings for others. While no one is born a psychopath, we are all born with some degree of empathy. Our environment in our early years is where this empathy will manifest and continue or where it will fritter away until it is not there at all.

The Mind of a Psychopathic Killer
As highlighted by Dr James Fallon, Professor of Psychiatry and Human Behaviour at the University of California, psychopaths are “believable but not readable as they have no feelings to read through their eyes or body language”.
These are individuals who have a very low response to stress, they are callous and they do not connect with others in the same way you and I do. From a criminal perspective, they can be cruel, manipulative and aggressive. They do not take responsibility for their actions as according to them, their actions are caused by the behaviour of other people. In this way there is an overlap between psychopathic traits and narcissistic traits and equally this lack of responsibility for behaviour and actions can prove dangerous.
The Psychopath Scale
Dr Robert Hare developed the psychopath scale which is considered the most reliable and effective instrument to measure psychopathy. Originally designed to assess incarcerated adult males it has since been expanded for wider use but is still mainly used within criminality.
The scale covers behaviour such as communication abilities, interaction and manipulation of other people, lying and deviousness and how people behave socially. Scores range from 0 – 40 and the higher the score for an individual, put simply, the more of a psychopath that person is.
The Interconnecting Behavioural Traits of a Psychopath
This information is of course very categorical. It relies on someone’s awareness and honestly about their own behaviour and attitudes. However, when this information is combined with the history of an individual, their behaviour and their experiences, their brain structures and brain patterns, genetics and environmental influences, an overall picture of that individual can be gained.
Nature vs Nurture
Psychology has long debated the issue of nature and innate characteristics, against nurture and the effect of environment on a growing and developing individual. The area of criminology and forensic science is no different, asking whether criminals are born or made. We are certainly seeing increasing evidence on the importance of childhood and recognising psychopathic traits in children along with those crucial years of adolescence and the significance of teenage brain development on decision making and behaviour.
The development of technology within brain science has allowed these questions to be assessed more fully and from a scientific perspective. Functional brain scans such as functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) scanning have revealed some very interesting differences between those considered to be psychopaths and those who are not.
The brain of the psychopathic killer and a shocking discovery about Dr Fallon’s own brain
The Brain Scans of Psychopaths
What is interesting about psychopaths is there is evidence their brain regions to not function in the same way ours do. Functional MRI measures blood flow in the brain and when an individual is performing a task, whether it be looking at images or listening to music, scientists are able to see in real time which areas of the brain are active during these tasks and which are not.
Science has learned over the years which brain areas would be expected to activate when exposed to certain types of stimuli in the normal human being’s brain. Psychopaths it appears do not do this; in fact they barely react at all. There is no behavioural response and there is no stress response. They are indifferent to these images and do not react emotionally to them. Psychopaths may voice their disgust at such images, however they do not feel disgust and the results of their brain scans have been able to highlight this scientifically.
Imaging Genetics in Psychopathic Killers
Over the last five to ten years imaging genetics has developed within psychiatry. In the early 1990’s a gene was found termed the ‘warrior gene’ which has been linked to violence and aggression. A Dutch family has been cited as an example where all the males within the family were missing this particular gene and all showed extreme violent and aggressive behaviour.
Further studies by Kings College in London in 2002 have highlighted that even with a form of this gene present, if less gene expression occurs more of the neurotransmitter serotonin can be released which along with early exposure to abuse can lead to teenagers in particular to show higher levels of aggression (Caspi et al, 2002). Serotonin is released in anger and has been directly linked with psychopathy. According to Dr Fallon the serotonin transporter is associated with violence but if a child is showered with love in their early years they are unlikely to become violent, however a child surrounded by violence is more likely to show violence in later life.
Childhood Abuse and Psychopathic Killers
Studies have shown early childhood abuse is a factor within psychopathic killers (Mitchell & Aamodt, 2005 and LaBrode, 2007). John Wayne Gacy, the ‘Killer Clown’, Gary Ridgeway, the ‘Green River Killer‘ and Ed Gein, the notorious American serial killer, all suffered childhood abuse. Furthermore, John Wayne Gacy, Henry Lee Lucas, Ed Gein, and possibly Dennis Rader, the ‘BTK‘ killer, all suffered childhood incidents of head trauma (LaBrode, 2007).
The connection between an abused childhood and anti-social behaviour as an adult is often thrown around loosely. Furthermore, some feel it is given as an excuse and a ‘get out clause’ for unacceptable and particularly violent behaviour.
Certainly, not all abused children grow up to become abusers, criminals and murderers. Evidence however does show a pattern between childhood abuse and psychopathic serial killing and it also suggests the younger the age of the child at the time of the abuse, the worse the effect on the growing individual.
Those first few years of life are the most important for risk factors. After a child turns 5 years old the risk to their developing personality reduces markedly.
Thou Shalt Not Kill: Knowing Right from Wrong
We all know it is wrong to kill or at least that is the presumption we make. The act of murder is so abhorrent to the majority of us we assume everyone feels the same and people who don’t must be within the grips of mental illness.
We hold an assumption that we all have the same brain that functions in the same way. Moreover that we therefore all have the same control and choices over our behaviour; however the simple fact is that this is just not the case.
If a psychopath has no feelings that an act of murder is wrong, that automatic repulsion and brake system which prevents us from harming others, can it be said that they do not know the act was wrong? Psychological studies suggest that psychopaths grow up learning what is perceived as right and wrong. Through watching other people’s behaviour and societies response to that behaviour, they gain an understanding of what is morally and ethically wrong.
Just because they don’t feel it themselves does not mean they do not understand it and acknowledge it. However, this learnt knowledge takes time to obtain. A young child for example may not yet have learnt this objective understanding and are thereby led more by their impulses and internal feelings, with less regard for society’s rules, judgement and potential consequences.
Acceptance of Biological Explanations for Crime
Neuroscience has come a long way over the past two decades and we now have a much deeper understanding of different areas of the brain, their functions and their relationship to our behaviour, particularly with regards to forensic psychology and the criminal mind.
To seriously consider biological factors within the causes of crime has only recently been accepted. Social and environmental causes had always been the leading theories and explanations in the past. Dr Adrian Raine, a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania was one of the first to raise these issues and originally encountered many barriers within the world of academia.
In Dr Raine’s largest study to date, he used Positron Emission Tomography (PET) to take brain scans of 41 convicted killers and compared them directly against 41 ‘normal’ individuals of a similar age and profile. The results highlighted clear differences in brain activity with an area of decreased activity visible in the killers brains in the area of the pre-frontal cortex of the brain. This area is at the front of the brain, just behind our forehead and is responsible for analysing thoughts and regulating our behaviour.
His determined focus and belief in the results of his research maintained his stance and he is today considered one of the leading experts on this topic. His book, The Anatomy of Violence, initially berated for its focus on the biological roots of criminal behaviour has now received critical acclaim and showcases his 35 years of study within this field.
What makes a psychopathic killer?
The importance of more traditional psychology and sociology approaches and their applications to the causes of crime should not be underestimated, nor should such biological and genetic neurocriminological explanations replace them completely.
However, as pointed out by Dr Raine:
“If we buy into the argument that for some people factors beyond their control, factors in their biology, greatly raise the risk of them becoming offenders, can we justly turn a blind eye to that?”
Genetics and biology work hand in hand with psychology and environmental factors; it is not so much nature or nurture but nature and nurture.
Psychology of Crime in the Courtroom
In recent years, the United States legal system have started to use neurocriminology within serious criminal cases as mitigating evidence to explanation their clients actions. Debate is building on what place this has in the courtroom and what it may mean for the Criminal Justice System.
We can only assume this will continue and develop into the future which holds its own moral and ethical debates for the punishment of criminals in this regard. The psychology of the criminal mind and brain is a complicated matter. You cannot take a sample of the mind and test it to obtain a result of what may be wrong. It is about analysis of behaviour, tendencies, characteristics and behaviour traits which all combine to give a picture of an individual.
Many of these behaviour traits overlap and there is no clear singular trait, or gene or childhood experience which can be held responsible for criminal behaviour, or in the case of the psychopathic killer, murder. The development of science within forensic psychology has enabled examination of brain scans, genetics and behaviour to see how such aspects combined could have led an individual to kill.
Not all individuals with these traits will go on to commit crime and be a psychopathic killer, with Dr James Fallon being a prime example. However, it has provided us with the strongest measurable indications of behaviour and an understanding of why that behaviour may manifest and this holds enormous potential for the future.

A Marquette University law school poll released Monday says Obama's approval rating has fallen to 44 percent. Fifty percent disapprove of the job he's doing.
In October, before the flawed rollout of the federal health care exchanges, 49 percent approved of Obama and 46 percent disapproved. Those numbers were in line with his average approval ratings in Wisconsin over the past two years.
The poll also revealed a decrease in support for health care reform. The poll says 35 percent of respondents have a favorable view of the law and 56 have an unfavorable view. Three months ago, 42 percent had a favorable impression and 48 an unfavorable view.
The poll of 802 registered voters has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

Users will also be able to see the expected fare of an auto-rickshaw journey
- The live bus status will factor in real-time traffic on a route
- Details such as train running status and delays will be shown
- The new features will be limited to a few cities initially
Google has introduced a host of India-specific features to Google Maps in the past. Continuing the tradition, Google has announced three new navigation features in Google Maps for Indian folks who rely on public transport. The first one tells approximate travel time via a public bus after taking into account live traffic status on the route. A similar feature for train journeys has also been announced, which shows real-time train running status, as well as any delays that might occur. Lastly, a mixed-mode navigation option has also been revealed that will suggest the best route by recommending when users should switch to an auto-rickshaw during their journey.
Real-time bus travel information
Google Maps will soon show the delay one might face during their bus journey by taking into account the live traffic status of the route. In case a delay is expected, users will see a message in red colour that will tell the amount of time by which the regular commute time will be extended due to traffic congestion or any other factor.
In case there is no delay, commuters will see the transport time in green text. This feature is initially being launched in Bengaluru, Chennai, Coimbatore, Delhi, Hyderabad, Lucknow, Mumbai, Mysore, Pune, and Surat.
Live train status
This India-specific feature will tell users the live status of a train and check if it is delayed, however, it will work only in case of a long distance train journey. As per Google’s official blog post, this feature was developed in collaboration with the ‘Where is my Train’ app that was acquired by the search giant last year.
Mixed-mode navigation with auto-rickshaw recommendation
For users who have to switch between a bus and auto, or metro and auto on a regular basis, this new feature will certainly come in handy. It will tell users when they should take an auto-rickshaw and what station or stop will be the most suitable to take one after switching from another means of transport such as metro, local train, or a bus.
Google Maps will also present useful information such as estimated auto-rickshaw fare and departure time for a transit connection. The mixed-mode navigation guidance will initially be available for users in Delhi and Bengaluru, and will be expanded to other Indian cities as well.
We checked for three new India-specific features on the latest version of Google Maps for Android (v10.17.2) as well as the beta version, but it appears that they are not live as of now.

Instagram continues to evolve and provide new tools. The latest shift came in the form of allowing multiple full photos to be used in a single post. Your followers can now simply swipe the initial photo to see the rest in that post’s collection. With any new social media tool, this creates new possibilities on the platform. Once I updated my Instagram app and started playing around with the new feature, I wrote down a few ways multiple picture posts could be used.
