Since she was a little girl Kaley Cuoco dreamed of being an actress and she started that journey when she was a pre-teen. Now, at 30, the actress is ending her tenth and final season of her hit television series The Big Bang Theory and searching for new prospects regarding her acting future. Before hitting it big on primetime stations like CBS and ABC the actress did small modeling gigs and had some small one-time roles on hit television shows. When she landed her spot as Bridget on 8 Simple Rules she didn’t realize it yet, but she’d hit it big.
The California native has been open and honest with the press and keeps very little about her life private. All of her boyfriends and even fling style relationships are tabloid and online gossip fodder to which she rarely objects. Many accuse the actress of using her dating life to acquire more press, but let’s be frank; if it ain't broken then why fix it? Although this hasn’t proved her best way to find a mate in the past, dating Henry Cavill and letting the press into her dating life has moved Cuoco to solid B-list territory.
Below not only will we cover 15 jaw-dropping photos of Kaley Cuoco, but we'll also inform you a little bit about her life and give further insight as to why she's one of the brightest (and sexiest) stars in Hollywood.
15 Black Bikini on the Beach
The actress most well known for her television work is pictured here on the beach in a black bikini with a cute, strappy printed top. This photo prominently displays two of Kaley Cuoco’s tattoos, one of which is now completely covered up. Right at the back of her neck Cuoco has roman numerals inked on her, but we can’t find those anymore. That’s because the television and movie actress got the numbers tattooed on her to mark the date of her wedding to professional tennis player Ryan Sweeting whom she dated for three months before getting engaged. The two were quickly divorced citing different reasons for the split, among them was Sweeting’s addiction issues. Just two months after the divorce Cuoco covered the tattoo completely with a giant moth in color ink. Her lower back tattoo is the Chinese symbol for ‘Faith’ which she has talked about being her ‘dumb’ tattoo on daytime talk show Ellen.
14 Sippin’ on Cocktails in Striped Bikinis
This shot was captured while Cuoco was vacationing with then husband Ryan Sweeting along with other friends and family in Cabo San Lucas for the Fourth of July holiday back in 2014. Also on the vacation was The Bachelorette Ali Fedotowsky and her boyfriend Kevin Manno along with her sister Briana Cuoco and 8 Simple Rules costar Amy Davidson. Back when 8 Simple Rules was a television staple (2002-2005) Cuoco and Davidson were as close as real sisters. The show ran for 76 episodes until the untimely and tragic death of beloved actor John Ritter in 2005. For a couple of years after the end of 8 Simple Rules the actress bounced around in a couple of different TV and voice spots until landing the gig she’s still currently working on at CBS. In 2007 Cuoco was cast as Penny on The Big Bang Theory and still plays the character to this day.
13 Reading on the Beach
The blond actress was born in Camarillo, California to a realtor and his homemaker wife, she is of German, English and Italian descent. As a child Cuoco was a regionally ranked tennis player, she played the sport from the age of three until she was 16. She began acting in 1995 as a young girl in the movie Virtuosity. This photo was shot in the beginning stages of her television acting career, probably during or right before her run on 8 Simple Rules. We mentioned that Ritter’s death ended the show; that wasn’t necessarily true. The show continued without him and even hosted episodes meant to say goodbye to the actor that we all know and love. David Spade came on as a family member to help offset the hole left by Ritter’s character but the show’s rating eventually petered out and it was cancelled. Cuoco recovered well and it only took her two years to land her role as Penny.
12 Big Bang Theory Peach Bikini
In Season 8 Kaley Cuoco’s character is in a scene wearing a peach string bikini, this is a snapshot from that scene. Big Bang Theory started in September 2007 Cuoco starred in the first episode as the waitress and aspiring actress who lives across the hall from two ‘nerdy’ scientists that have no idea how to talk to a ‘hot’ girl. In the ten seasons of the show the actors have raised their salaries from $60,000 an episode to a whopping $200,000 an episode with a current estimate of each actor earning $1 million per episode. In the series Cuoco’s character Penny dates Leonard Hofstadter, one of the nerds across the hall. In real life the pair secretly dated for about two years and remained close friends after they stopped dating in 2010. Since then she has had some rocky experiences with broken engagements and failed marriages. Maybe 2017 will be her year for romantic success.
11 Beach Ready with Bangs
Pictured wearing a black bikini with the usual Cuoco bright blond hair cut with side swept bangs, Kaley looks like the California girl that she is. She has lived a lot of her dating life very publicly including her IRL relationship with co-star and onscreen Big Bang husband John Galecki as well as her divorce form IRL husband Ryan Sweeting. The actress cited the divorce as quite painful, especially with all of the tabloids swirling around their split. The pair finalized their split in May of 2015 and Cuoco said on “The Talk” that she knew deep down that there was more out there for her in terms of love. She met her most recent beau at a horse show and the two are very serious now. After riding horses for a couple of years Kaley Cuoco was pretty stoked to finally find a guy who shared her passion for the noble animals. They love riding together and have recently begun stepping out on the red carpet together.
10 Tribal Body Paint in Anguilla
Shot on the back of a boat in the Caribbean Island of the Anguilla Kaley Cuoco posted this photo to Twitter back in 2012. The actress went on a girl’s trip to the island and spent tons of time in a bikini hanging on beaches and boats around Anguilla. She tweeted quite a bit from that trip making sure that the world knew she was enjoying herself on vacation. This photo was never explained but the caption that Cuoco posted implied that the young women were inspired by Native American tribal paint although they’re simply painted with suns and stars. It is this kind of insensitive commentary that got her in trouble with an Instagram post this year on the Fourth of July. She posted a photo in what she thought was celebration but instead it caused tons of controversy, even to be fodder for the talking heads on Fox News at one point. In this now deleted photo the actress put the American flag on the ground and let her dogs sit on it for social media.
9 Dreams of Acting
Since she was a little girl Kaley Cuoco has been acting and modelling and when she was 18 she decided that it was time to get a breast augmentation. The young woman regrets no part of getting the surgery and would do it again in a heartbeat. Cuoco had the surgery in 2004 while she was working on the television show 8 Simple Rules. This isn’t the only thing Cuoco has been exceptionally open about, she’s also very open about her personal life. The 29 year old has been in a few public relationships and never turns down an opportunity to talk about it in the press. The first major profile boyfriend that she had was Superman aka Henry Cavill. In 2014 the couple stepped out in front of paparazzi frequently for the entirety of their short two week relationship. Since then it’s been said that the actress dates for publicity rather than love but that is just conjecture.
8 Black Bikini Stretched on a Lifeguard tower
The Big Bang Theory actress plays Penny in the show, a character who was just married to on screen boyfriend Leonard. In 2014 Cuoco married her real life boyfriend of three months Ryan Sweeting who was once ranked 64th in the world of Men’s Tennis. After being engaged for only three more months the pair had a dream wedding in Simi Valley, CA right outside of Los Angeles. The chandelier was complete with an upside down wedding cake suspended from the ceiling baked by none other than high end Los Angeles storefront The Butter End Cakery. She also wore a pink princess style Vera Wang wedding gown and was a beautiful but non traditional bride. The pair were wed in front of 150 of their closest friends and family at Hummingbird Ranch under a rhinestone canopy that shone beautifully in the evening lights. Unfortunately Sweeting dealt with very serious addiction issues and the pair was officially divorced a year or so later.
7 Kaley Cuoco in Sweet But Sexy Lingerie
Although this isn’t a bikini shot it seriously highlights the work that Kaley Cuoco puts in at the gym. Not to mention all the body parts that are getting shown off in the above photo, are also highlighted in a bikini!
Shape magazine did a spotlight on Cuoco’s Big Bang Theory workout with her trainer George King but it’s clear she works out year round and not just for her TV show. Aside from regular power yoga classes and other various workout classes, she spends three days a week in the gym with a trainer for an hour and a half sessions. Her trainer let readers in on the fact that Cuoco’s main focus is her abs, arms and butt but they rarely dedicate a single workout to just one of these target body parts. The pair will generally do circuit workouts switching off with BOSU ball abs and dumbbell work to target multiple muscles. Although she works out a lot and has fun while doing it, Cuoco isn’t a huge fan of the gym and definitely does it begrudgingly.
6 Candid Black and White Bikini in Mexico
Just before their wedding, after having dated for just about 3-4 months, Ryan Sweeting and Kaley Cuoco took a trip to Mexico to sit on the beach and just enjoy each other’s company. This candid shot was taken on that same trip. A year and some change after their wedding Kaley Cuoco separated from Ryan Sweeting citing his addiction as the reason for divorce. Sweeting was a professional tennis player until he got injured after winning his last title at the US Men’s Clay Court Championships in Houston, Texas just a year or so before he and Cuoco met and sparked up their whirlwind romance. Many gossip mags reported that after his injury Sweeting developed an addiction to doctor prescribed painkillers that squashed his inspiration to get a job or bring in any money of his own. After 21 months the actress filed for divorce but it wasn’t much of a surprise for Sweeting or any of their close friends and family.
5 Pre-Boob Job Kaley Cuoco in a Bikini
This photo was taken before Kaley hit it big in the television industry with 8 Simple Rules back in 2002. When she hit it big as the younger sister on the show Cuoco was only 17 when she landed the breakout role opposite John Ritter. Before she got the role in the family sitcom she first got her start as a child in the modelling world and first started acting in commercials. After acting in commercials she caught the bug and started auditioning for anything that she could. Early on Cuoco landed small spots on popular teen series like My So Called Life, Northern Exposure and 7th Heaven. With all of this exposure at a young age Cuoco was homeschooled after middle school. Once 8 Simple Rules was finally cancelled Cuoco landed a recurring role on the supernatural series Charmed for their eighth season. That role lasted only a season until she found her place as Penny on The Big Bang Theory.
4 Riding a Giant Swan at a Pool Party
Originally this photo was posted by Kaley Cuoco’s then husband Ryan Sweeting while the two were enjoying a pool party with friends. He posted this photo of Cuoco hugging a giant swan blow up pool toy in a black bandeau bikini with some dangly jewelry on his personal Instagram page. The actress also posted a photo of the super fun pool day featuring the swan and her two pups jumping into the water. The pair purchased the Tarzana, CA house featured in the photos from Khloe Kardashian after the socialite’s breakup with Lamar Odom. Kaley Cuoco purchased the 8000 square foot home shortly after signing one of their biggest deals in television alongside her co stars Jim Parsons and Johnny Galecki for $1 million per episode. In the divorce Cuoco got both the Tarzana house and a beach house that the couple shared near Santa Barbara.
3 Looking Relaxed in a Sheer Cover Up
On what looks like a family vacation the television star is wearing a sheer, nude colored cover up paired with a dark bikini. Cuoco has always been family oriented, even in her years of fame. After signing the one million per episode deal she was quoted as saying that she’s thankful for this money so that she can take care of her family, specifically her parents. Kaley’s sister Briana Cuoco competed on television’s The Voice and made it quite far with Christina Aguilera as her coach. When she was voted off by Blake Shelton, Kaley took to Twitter to bash him for his decision. Her little sister has also made appearances on the actress’s hit show The Big Bang Theory. Briana played Gretchen in a season 6 episode of the hit CBS series. Cuoco was initially the only female that was to be featured on the show until she was joined by Mayim Bialik and Melissa Rauch.
2 Still Shot From Lifetime Movie
In 2007 Kaley Cuoco starred in the Lifetime original film To Be Fat Like Me, this is a still from that very same made for TV movie. The plot of the film is based on the novel Black Like Me, but in this film instead of understanding racial segregation and issues, Cuoco’s character creates a documentary called Fat Like Me. After her mother uses her college fund Cuoco has to win a documentary film competition and decides to wear a fat suit to further understand her overweight family.
A couple years before the Lifetime film Kaley Cuoco also starred in an ABC Family original movie Crimes of Fashion in the same year as her last season on 8 Simple Rules. This made for TV movie also starred Megan Fox as Cuoco’s nemesis and Stuart Gillard as her love interest and possible foe. The actress hasn’t crossed over much from television to movies, but her television success is undeniable.
1 Candid Cuoco in a Teal Bikini
On a friends trip to Mexico, Cuoco was pictured by one of her entourage in an adorable teal bandeau bikini while chilling out poolside.
She is no stranger to relaxing, or to Mexico. In 2014 the actress took a vacay with her former 8 Simple Rules co-star and former Bachelorette Ali Fedotowsky along with her then-husband Ryan Sweeting. The couple spent several vacations in Mexico and Cuoco still enjoys visiting the country even after their divorce.
To celebrate her 30th birthday Kaley’s sister Briana gathered all Kaley’s friends and flew them on a private jet to Mexico where the group pet exotic animals as pictured on their Instagram pages. The actress is a known animal lover and absolutely flipped over the fabulous getaway with her loved ones. Vacations, bikinis, and young handsome suitors are obviously all important to Kaley Cuoco as we’ve seen in this long list of information about the bikini-clad sitcom actress.

What problems will be encountered in the production of barite mills?
The barite mill is of high quality and fine powder during processing and production. During use, it is not only easy to operate but also has high production efficiency. Over the years, the equipment has been optimized for production, improving the environmental performance of the equipment, thereby reducing power consumption and noise, and creating good economic benefits for the enterprise.
Shanghai Clirik Machinery Co., Ltd. is a grinding machinery manufacturing enterprise, producing barite powder mill, ultra-fine mill, ultra-fine vertical mill and other advanced equipment, and has high production, high efficiency, energy saving and environmental protection system The powder advantage, which sets the price of Raymond machine and the selection scheme is cost-effective and scientific and reasonable, is a good helper for all industries to seek resource recycling.
Barite Raymond Mill
When the barite mill is fed with too much or too little material, it will cause insufficient grinding of the barite mill, resulting in that the finished powder cannot be discharged in the circulation air channel under the action of the blower in time, thereby increasing the work load of the blower , Resulting in accumulation of powdery materials in the air duct, which eventually causes the air duct to block. Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that the feeding is continuous and uniform when feeding the barite powder machine to avoid the phenomenon of air duct blockage.
If the fan of the barite mill is clogged, it will directly affect the normal operation of the equipment. Be sure to deal with it in a timely manner and clear the fan duct. At the same time, we must pay attention to maintenance in the daily use of the barite mill. The host and blower must be placed horizontally on the reinforced concrete foundation to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
When choosing equipment, in addition to the price, there is the quality of the product. Attention must be paid to observe the grinding parts of the working cavity. The main grinding parts of the mill are the grinding roller and the grinding ring. Both the grinding roller and the grinding ring also have normal wear, but the quality of the grinding roller determines the entire recrystallization. The maintenance rate of stone mills.Raymond machine
has the characteristics of large production capacity, high powder yield and excellent quality. It is an excellent equipment for efficiently solving the problems of low productivity, high energy consumption and high maintenance cost of ordinary mills. In combination with the actual production needs of each customer, From the perspective of customers, we stand on the perspective of creating greater value, help customers scientifically select models, rationally allocate more excellent resources, and help each customer achieve greater economic value in their respective fields.
There are many types of mills themselves, the size of the floor area is mainly determined by the length and width of the equipment, and it will also involve the occupied area of the pipeline. The size of the equipment varies according to the model and the floor space is different. The specific situation still needs to be combined with the actual situation of the user to make a reasonable match. For more information, please call +86-13917147829

Cracker of a Kali puja weekend
Read more below
- Published 8.11.13
|A lit-up Kadam Gachh at BJ Park on Saturday.|
Little Prajukta Banik of AK Block was too scared to burst crackers herself but longed to see some spectacular fireworks in the sky. So her parents walked her to neighbouring BJ Block for their fireworks display on Saturday.
“The sky is full of colourful lights,” she exclaimed as a ray of light shot high up and burst into a chandelier of blue and yellow colours.
There were also flower pots that sent sparkles up 40-ft high and “Kadam gachh” that was a pillar with branch-like installations that emitted lights when lit up. Some of these “branches” had wheels on the edges that sent lights spinning out in circular directions.
“The fireworks display is much-awaited by our residents so we organise it every year. This year we have increased the budget for the event from Rs 37,000 to 55,000,” said secretary of BJ Block Kali puja committee Anindya Sinha Roy. “Cultural programmes happen round the year but an illuminated sky is a once-a-year opportunity.”
A slight disappointment was the “Sachin baaji” which was scheduled but later cancelled. “This would have been a kadam gachh-like pillar with its edges lit-up by crackers such that spectators could see pictures of Sachin Tendulkar stuck in the middle,” said S.K. Sheik Arshad Ali of Waris Fireworks in Burdwan who had put up the show.

The gimmick could not be executed since they could not manage enough posters of Tendulkar. “So we put some random pictures on the pillar and went ahead,” said Ali.
At AC Block, fireworks weren’t the main attraction but a filler in between the music show. So after every few songs by artistes Abhishek and Manisha there would be a few 40-ft high flower pots set off or a display of the Niagara Falls. This was a string of crackers with two ends tied to poles and once lit up, the flames would drop to the ground from each cracker like a glowing waterfall. The fireworks were being set off in enclosed spaces on either side of the stage.

“We hold a fireworks show every year but decided to break it up into parts in order to prolong the excitement,” said Rajib Chakraborty, a member of AC Block Yubak Sangha that was organising the event.
“The highlight of our programme was when we illuminated the words ‘AC Block Yubak Sangha’ with crackers on a board pinned to a pole,” said Shekhar Mukherjee of Mukherjee Fireworks that had executed the show.
|Yesteryear Hindi film actress Zeenat Aman and Tapas Chatterjee, chairman of Rajarhat Gopalpur Municipality, inaugurated the 53rd edition of Narendranagar Netaji Club’s Kali puja in Narayanpur on Saturday evening. Local councillor Tapas Malakar (blue shirt) and Subhasish Ghosh, inspector-in-charge of Narayanpur phari, were present on the occasion. “Calcutta has a special place in my heart so I keep coming here. I wish you all a happy Kali Puja and Diwali. Both the pandal and the idol are praiseworthy,” said Zeenat Aman. She sang Dum maro dum in front of the 2,000-plus crowd that had assembled for a glimpse of the Satyam Shivam Sundaram star. Picture by Mayukh Sengupta|
|The pandal at Nayapatty Aditya Smrity Sangha resembled a run-down house with a garden. Except, at the entrance of the garden was the rim of a huge magnifying glass, through which visitors would appear to be seeing the entire image. So the interior had blown-up butterflies, mushrooms, frogs and flowers. “This is the biggest Kali puja in the area. Last year I had to queue up for an hour to enter it,” said Basanti Khan, a local resident. The pandal was built in the lane opposite Sector V’s Technopolis building. “We chose this theme to teach our children to love nature,” said president of the puja Jaydev Naskar. Picture by Sanat Kumar Sinha|
|Actress Padmini Kolhapure inaugurated the puja in AC Block this year. “I have come to Calcutta several times before and love the culture of the city,” she said, before singing some lines of Zindagi pyar ka geet hai and Tumse milkar na jane kyun from her films Souten and Pyar Jhukta Nahin respectively. Also present were Tollywood actress Subhasree, MLA Sujit Bose, minister Aroop Biswas and civic chief Krishna Chakraborty. Picture by Saradindu Chaudhury|

I'm going to guess that everyone who thinks mass government surveillance for "terrorism" is a-ok must think this is ok too?Secret mass surveillance conducted by the Drug Enforcement Administration is falling under renewed scrutiny after fresh revelations about the broad scope of the agency’s electronic spying.
This is the thing I've never understood about people's casual attitude about all this surveillance. They seem to think that the Al Capone logic of government agents finding any crime they can to put someone behind bars couldn't possibly apply to them and will only be used against real "bad guys." But the Drug War should show if nothing else does that these agencies have a need to perpetuate themselves and will use whatever means at their disposal to ensure a steady supply of bad guys. These mass surveillance programs basically give them a permanent record of everyone's activity just in case they need to find some evidence of something against a person they want to target. And you may never even know that's what they did since they routinely lie about how they were informed of certain crimes citing the need to protect their confidential informants which can very well be the secret government program that's collecting all your information.
It's crazy. If you don't think the government should be allowed to scan every piece of mail that goes through the post office and keep it on file just in case they might "need" to sift through it and find something in your past or among your associations to use against you, you shouldn't be so sanguine about this stuff. These things could happen. They have happened.

The Cowboys have had a busy offseason, the changes Jerry said would happen, have indeed happened, but more on the player side. With Owens released yesterday, the Cowboys wasted no time in releasing another high profile name in Roy Williams. Roy Williams had two good seasons in Dallas, and garbage the rest of the way. I’m legitimately happier about the Roy Williams release than Owens’ release. Now, that Roy Williams is outta here, let look at the implications.
First off, with Williams gone, this opens up a starting position at safety, and not a minute sooner than Roy’s release do we have our first glimpse of the new duo at safety: Hamlin and Scandrick.
Scandrick you say? at 5-10, 192lbs. According the FWST, there’s speculation Scandrick will probably make the move to free safety, and Hamlin will move over to strong safety. I’ll take that, Scandrick is scrappy and already showed up he could play effectively.
Just talked to Terence Newman to get his general reaction to the events of the last 24 hours or so and he said he was “shocked” to learn that both Terrell Owens and Roy Williams were cut.
He had a lot more to say, but one thing he did add was that he expects to see second-year cornerback Orlando Scandrick playing free safety and moving Ken Hamlin to strong safety which means Mike Jenkins will start at the other corner.
It’s not set in stone, but it sounds like those wheels are in motion.(FWST)
I like this possible move of Scandrick from cornerback to free safety, and here’s what all this means:
– Jenkins will be the starting corner opposite Newman
– Hamlin will move to strong safety
– Scandrick will move to free safety
– Pat Watkins is in the same boat as Carpenter, career backup
– Need to draft more corners
With Scandrick possibly moving to free safety, you would have to think that corners could be a premium with the first picks. We’ll need someone to backup Jenkins and Newman, possibly even draft cornerback with the first pick since its likely Newman will get injured and we’ll have a gapping hole there.
As it stands right now, the draft is shaping up to be a bag of surprises. This is going to come down to the level of comfort at certain starter positions. Here’s a list of starters that could soon be gone after 2009 due to free agency or release:
CB Terence Newman – pretty good player, but over last two seasons, he’s played injured, been injured, missed a few games, and not as effective as in previous years. In this draft, the Cowboys could take a corner early to protect ourselves from injury, and as a possibly replacement player down the line.
Defensive End – Marcus Spears is in a contract season, and its likely he’ll want a big contract, bigger than Canty. Like Canty, Spears has been good in run defense, but nothing spectacular in other areas. So again, we could lose another DE after 2009, This leaves us with Hatcher and Bowen. Even if Dallas adds another DE via free agency, you would have to believe DE could be another early target; moreover, if another DE is not added.
Linebacker – could Ellis be the next player to be released? Its pretty clear Spencer will move into the starter position for 2009, so how much complaining will Jerry take from Ellis? Adding depth at OLB and ILB will be looked into as well. How effective will Brooking really be? Carpenter is a career backup.

In our May, 2016 newsletter we introduced the problem in detoxification if you have a MTHFR genetic mutation. Prior to reading this month’s newsletter, you might consider reviewing the information.
Thermal imaging is a means to monitor for inflammation. Inflammation is the precursor to a host of chronic diseases. Thus, if you can limit inflammation, you can either help yourself avoid a disease, or limit the effects of an existing diagnosis. For example, if you are a type 1 diabetic, managing blood sugar control is MUCH easier when the chaos of inflammation is reduced. “Inflammation” is just another term for “whole-body chaos” that causes a disruption in your body’s ability to achieve homeostasis.
The MTHFR pathway is one way you detoxify and then support your glutathione (antioxidant) system. But to optimize your glutathione production, you need to know about homocysteine.
Homocysteine is a naturally occurring amino acid produced during methylation:
Increased levels of homocysteine is associated with:
- A strong correlation of predicting and preceding the development of cardiovascular disease (a more accurate predictor of death than cholesterol, blood pressure, or smoking)
- Alzheimer’s, dementia, declining memory, and poor concentration and judgment
- Difficulty in conception and repeated early miscarriage
The Fate of Homocysteine
Homocysteine can be rendered harmless when cofactors, vitamins, and enzymatic reactions are present to quickly convert it back to methionine or cysteine, both of which are harmless and necessary amino acids. Methionine and cysteine are precursors to glutathione, your innate antioxidant system.
So, if there is a lack of cofactors that converts homocysteine into harmless amino acids, it accumulates in your body and leads to disease. A reduction in the activity of the MTHFR gene plays a role in producing necessary cofactors for optimal conversion. Without addressing this defect properly, detoxification is impaired and health is compromised.
Other contributing factors to high homocysteine include poor diet, poor lifestyle (smoking, high coffee and alcohol intake), some prescription drugs, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and poor thyroid function.
The Good News
High homocysteine levels can be normalized through diet and vitamin supplementation (vitamin B12, B6, B2, zinc, and others).
Summary of the Importance of Glutathione (GSH)
- GSH is involved in many cell processes, including cell differentiation, proliferation, and programmed cell death
- Daily living activities create free radicals. Adequate GSH helps in cellular repair from free radical damage
- The liver is dependent on GSH to carry-out its role of chemical detoxification
- The liver needs GSH to make bile, an essential component of fat metabolism
- GSH is essential for optimal immune function, homeostasis, oxygen transport, protection of DNA, and the removal of heavy metals
An established client came in for her full body scan and had been diagnosed with the MTHFR A1298C mutation and started on the supplements specific to her condition. She was concerned that she would have lots of inflammation due to this new diagnosis.
This client noted the following since starting on her new supplement regime she has been on for about 2 years:
- Decrease in bilateral breast tenderness
- Able to eat most anything without experiencing flu-like symptoms for several days afterwards / improved digestion
- Significantly decreased sinus congestion and allergies
- Overall feeling of well-being
Below are her images of breast and abdomen. (Due to significant allergy symptoms, client was unable to have her 2015 imaging, so there is a break in the continuity of imaging.)
Realize, thermography cannot diagnose any condition, but often improvement in the ability to detoxify the body can be seen in comparative scans with reduction in inflammation.
We spend lots of money and time working to optimize health. With thermal imaging, we watch for changes over time as an early indication of changes in health. Both of us have noticed an increase in the number of our clients, both established and new, that come into our clinics with a diagnosis of MTHFR mutation. Many of these clients are finally finding answers to their struggles and we encourage all of our clients to explore this avenue for themselves.
The methylation cycle is complex and this newsletter is not meant to give a complete understanding of its importance. MTHFR mutations effect your detoxification system as well as neurotransmitter production. Please speak with your healthcare provider about any questions or concerns you may have regarding your risks.
Yours in health,
Brenda and Lynda Witt

Why people make terrible decisions in relationships, and in life
Many of my friends turned 30, freaked out about still being single and have been torturing themselves on Tinder, Ok Cupid and other “dating” sites alike in hope of finding love ever since.
We all know society and to be fair, nature, puts this pressure on young women to settle down and have a family before it’s too late. But I cannot think of anything worse than settling down with someone for fear of being alone. Never do anything because of fear. Fear shouldn't be fueling your decisions, love should. Which love you ask? Love for yourself. Know thyself is my principal golden rule for anything in life as I’ve realised no matter what you’re discussing, no matter the hardship someone is going through or the difficulty of the decision; knowing yourself plays a fundamental role in the ability to move forward or move past it in a way that encompasses growth.
Life is hard. It’s very hard. It may be simple, but we as humans are not. We are a complex matrix of physical matter, emotions, and a wide range of different experiences. That’s how we’re all the same, yet still all so different. When you throw in necessities like keeping a roof over your head, food in your mouth and clothes on your back, life can be pretty demanding. So on top of all of this we’re supposed to just find someone we may or may not be attracted to, who may or may not satisfy our intrinsic needs, who may or may not be a compatible fit for our life goals then compromise our values (sometimes) and create a whole new world with them for the rest of our lives (or at least until the kids leave home)? Nope, I’m good thanks.
I genuinely feel that some people, both men and women, take advantage of this pressure therefore offer a low standard of themselves in relationships. Think about it. How many happily married couples do you actually know? Couples that have been married three years plus whose smiles’ reach their eyes? Couples whose face light up at the mention of their other half? Couples who even when fighting, even when going through inevitable rough patches in their relationship are still respecting their partners and doing all the things they promised to do in their vows? I can’t say I know many myself.
Instead, I see couples who look happy on Facebook and Instagram but actually open up to me and paint quite a different picture. And once again I’ll go back to that principal rule; know thyself. How many of us took the time to really get to know who we are? How many of us know what we like, what we don’t like, what pushes us forward, what paralyses us, what our realistic dream and “impossible” dream is? Most of us don’t. Just look at your actions. How inconsistent have you been in what you perceive to be your values? How many times have you contradicted yourself or let yourself down? You are who you are…but have you accepted who you are? Are you completely honest with yourself? Have you forgiven yourself? Do you love yourself?
So many of us walk around trying to be someone else. The person our parents want us to be, our teachers, our children or people who we admire. I’m a complete advocate of trying to be the best version of yourself at all times. But when you’re not, it’s okay. When you missed that appointment or made that mistake, it was okay! Not acknowledging the things that bother us and internalising these emotions can be very dangerous and can easily lead us to becoming people even we don’t recognise in the mirror. Who are you?
Take time to figure that out and that’s when you’re more likely to find a satisfying and honest relationship. Because being honest with yourself makes it so much easier to be honest with others and also makes it easier for others to accept you as you are. If they don’t, that’s their choice, but you’re giving yourself a better chance at cultivating meaningful relationships. Get to know yourself and you’ll find a more satisfying job or career. You’ll have better friendships, life will seems better because that is how you’ll perceive it. It’ll be easier to make happiness be the choice during adversity, and trust me; happiness is a choice! I’m not saying it’s an easy choice, and I’m not even saying this journey of getting to know yourself ever ends. But it’s an important journey to take regardless of when you start it.
The point I’m trying to make is don’t rush into making life changing decisions because of pressures from society. Get to know yourself and I promise you, other things will fall into place. Love yourself, accept yourself and if that’s not what you want, if you truly desire to be a different person for whatever reason; change — the power is in your hands! But knowing yourself allows you to make better decisions for yourself. Organisations don’t hire senior people that don’t know either the industry or their field to make important decisions do they? So why do we do it? Go on adventures, try new things, look for novels experiences and be honest how you feel about them. I won’t say it’s an easy journey, I will however say it’s a worthwhile one.

Relief on the anvil for people with Parkinson's
- from Shaastra :: vol 01 issue 02 :: Mar - Apr 2022
Relief awaits people suffering from Parkinson's disease. A team of scientists has designed an innovative drug delivery system which increases the gap between dosages of a key drug, now injected in a patient thrice a day, to 48 hours.
While there is no cure yet for this progressive disorder of the central nervous system, which leads to tremors, stiffness and difficulty in walking, apart from cognitive decline, there are drugs that help treat the symptoms. One such prominent drug used for managing motor complications is apomorphine.
Many of the symptoms of Parkinson's are due to a loss of neurons that produce a chemical messenger in the brain called dopamine. When the dopamine level goes down, it causes abnormal brain activity, leading to involuntary and erratic movements of the face, arms, legs or trunk. Apomorphine - a molecule that mimics the activity of dopamine - is injected subcutaneously to treat tremors and improper motor control when the disease is in an advanced stage. But the patient has to take the shot at least thrice a day, for the therapeutic effect is short-lived. This poses a significant compliance challenge in treating Parkinson's, which afflicts more than a million Indians a year.
Now a team of scientists led by Samir Mitragotri, a Professor at Harvard University, has developed an innovative way to improve the sustained release of the drug. The technique developed by the team, which consisted of scientists from pharmaceutical firm Dr Reddy's Laboratories, apart from Harvard researchers, makes it possible to prolong the drug's availability in the bloodstream to as much as 48 hours. The scientists reported the work in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on February 21.
Though scientists have attempted many techniques conventionally used for a sustained release of drugs, little work has been done on apomorphine.
According to the scientists, the formulation of apomorphine is particularly challenging. It has very limited water solubility, is highly susceptible to oxidation, and is available in the bloodstream only for a short period upon injection. Besides, to be effective, the minimum concentration required is 4 nanogram per millilitre (nG/mL) and the body can tolerate a maximum of 10nG/mL. Though scientists have attempted many techniques conventionally used for a sustained release of drugs, little work has been done on apomorphine.
The novel formulation developed by Mitragotri - who graduated in chemical engineering from the Institute of Chemical Technology, Mumbai - comprises a homogenous mixture of a few solvents which spontaneously emulsifies into a microemulsion upon injection, entrapping the apomorphine and significantly slowing its release. Their studies on rats and pigs showed that the drug is available in sufficient concentration for up to 48 hours after the subcutaneous administration. This would make it possible to turn the current three-injections-a-day therapy into an every-other-day treatment for patients, the scientists say.

GOP candidate John James begins high-greenback correct fund to mission Michigan election loss
John James, the Republican challenger who lost final week to Democratic incumbent Sen. Gary Peters in Michigan, has started a correct defense fund in anticipation of the costs of no longer easy his 85,000 vote defeat, in step with records filed Monday with the Federal Elections Commission.
The organization, called the James Upright Fund, is a joint fundraising automotive between the James campaign and the Republican Nationwide Committee (RNC). It might maybe in reality secure donations, pay fundraising charges and disburse money to every committees. Further, the partnership lets in the fund to accept six-make a choice donations from individuals and transfer money out of the RNC to assorted GOP committees, such because the Trump campaign.
James has hundreds of high-greenback donors in his Rolodex. Shall we embrace, he has his deep ties to the successfully off DeVos family, participants of which have donated tens of hundreds to his campaign. The DeVos family has also given to the Higher Future Michigan Fund, including millions of bucks from Dan and Pam DeVos. The tremendous PAC spent upwards of $7 million supporting James.
The James campaign has also taken money from GOP megadonor and most modern Postmaster Total Louis DeJoy, whose campaign donations have become the topic of congressional and correct scrutiny. James also looked in a documentary soliciting reinforce from a Steve Bannon political incubator. (It’s unclear whether Bannon has funneled money to James.)
Brett Kappel, a top campaign finance attorney at Harmon Curran, in reality helpful Salon that contributions can also gain their technique to the Trump crew’s correct charges.
“The money that James raises here can flow to his campaign or to the RNC, which can employ them alternatively they love,” Kappel said. “The community’s assertion of organization would now not specify that funds going to the RNC are going to be deposited into the RNC correct proceedings fund. Even though it did, the RNC can also mute employ the money to pay for any Trump campaign correct challenges in Michigan or in other locations.”
“John James is ending his failed campaign the style he started it: ‘2,000%’ with Trump as he continues to level to his loyalty to the Trump crew except the very conclude and antagonistic whatever credibility he had left,” a Democratic aide in Michigan in reality helpful Salon.
Peters, a one-term incumbent and ranking member of the Place of origin Security and Executive Accountability Committee (HSGAC), which oversees the DeJoy-urge U.S. Postal Service, trailed James as early results poured in on Tuesday. After mail-in ballots had been counted, media retail outlets called the trot in the Democrat’s make a choice on on Wednesday. The finest tally put Peters forward by about 85,000 votes, or about eight cases the size of Trump’s 2016 margin of victory in the teach (which opponent Hillary Clinton did now not mission).
Once heralded as a rising Republican star, James, who obtained 10,000 votes lower than Trump statewide, has now lost inspire-to-inspire Michigan Senate races. Trump, whose correct challenges have already failed in the teach, lost to Biden there by about 145,000 votes.
Every margins are extremely unlikely to be swung in a stammer, but James, below strain from Trump surrogates to care for the fight, has no longer conceded. Michigan legislation grants requests for recounts if the complainant alleges fraud or an error and completes a statewide canvass.
“John James: Originate no longer concede,” South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Trump loyalist, said against a Fox Industry appearance on Sunday. “These computer programs in Michigan attain no longer cross the smell take a look at. Preserve struggling with for every correct and are living vote.”
Two judges have tossed correct challenges from the Trump campaign — one to cease the counting of votes and but some other to place off the certification of results.
Stuart Sandler, a advisor for the James campaign, alleged to Fox News that the Republican candidate had lead Peters except ballots mysteriously looked below the conceal of the evening.
“There had been all sorts of chicanery, including ballots that got here in reportedly in the center of the evening at 3: 30 a.m. — 35,000 ballots that had been deceptively brought in,” Sandler said, with out evidence.
Sandler also alleged that a extinct teach Democratic chairman had bussed attorneys and activists to “disrupt the technique” in Detroit. It’s unclear why the Democratic Celebration must interfere with ballotcounts a closely Democratic dwelling.
Democrats proceed to fight for majority regulate of the U.S. Senate, which can doubtless be determined by two distinguished urge-offs in Georgia this January.

The California Air Resources Board began the formal process to revise its strategy for the clean-up of on- and off-road diesel engines by directing staff to return in September with specific proposals to provide additional flexibility.
We fully recognize that the economy has had an effect on the owners and operators of big rigs, buses and construction equipment, and has also resulted in emissions from these vehicles being lower than we expected. We are committed to taking those impacts into consideration for our diesel clean-up program.
—ARB Chairman Mary D. Nichols
The Board has asked staff to draft changes to the regulations that will mitigate the potential effects of an unfavorable economy on affected businesses, while keeping in mind the need to protect public health, meet federal clean air deadlines, and continue moving forward even through uncertain times. The Board also directed staff to consider approaches to give credit to firms that have already complied with the regulations, and to examine the possibility of additional loans and incentive funding for the program.
Staff presented an update on diesel emission estimates, and the approach for incorporating new information on diesel fuel use, emission factors and equipment use. A new emissions estimate will be used in the rule revision process.
ARB staff will conduct a series of workshops in May and June in Los Angeles, Sacramento and Fresno with stakeholders and the public to solicit information about proposed revisions to the regulations that will be presented to the Board in September.
ARB has already extended deadlines for off-road equipment owners through AB8 2X (signed by the Governor in February 2009), including delayed compliance and credits for those who have reduced their fleet size or operating hours in response to the recession.
In addition, ARB will continue its program of financial support to help owners and operators of these trucks and equipment. More than $100 million in Proposition 1B funds alone have been allocated for cleaning up on-road diesel trucks through retrofits or replacement. Additional funds have been made available through the Carl Moyer Grant Program, along with loans via AB 118 and federal stimulus funds.

text: What is that expression from and why did my dad always say it when we were growing up? I’m sure if he ever actually remembers to read my blog he’ll give me the exact reference from which it was taken…that’s right Donald, I’m talking to you! Anyway incase you don’t know,my married name is Rao so when my partner in crime and I saw this little decorative fall branch with three wheat hangy things for super cheap at JoAnn’s we knew it would be a perfect autumnal decorative piece and easy to personalize for my three lettered last name! I simply bought plain thin wooden letters, drew chevrons and polka dots (to make it “trendy” like Ang suggested) with a brown marker, accented with gold glitter because I mean come on, EVERYTHING is better with glitter, and hot glued the letters onto the wheat hangy things (I’m sorry I can’t be more technical, I guess they’re actually mini wreaths?) So here’s the final product, I love the way it turned out and I hope it inspires you to personalize something for your home!

Romance in Fantasy and Science Fiction
Face it: As genres go, fantasy and science fiction do not lend themselves well to romance. Now before you protest by citing examples of book covers, let me say that romance is more than a buxom vixen next to a muscle man riding a dragon. That’s not romance; that’s just sex. Sex is not romance. […]

The notion of making some sort of "sacrifice" for fashion is one we're all too familiar with. Whether it's eating ramen to afford that one dream splurge or eschewing practicality for the sake of an incredible outfit, there are some occasions that just feel worth it. Recently Zoë Kravitz demonstrated the latter occasion, wearing a gorgeously decadent bra top despite frigid temps at Paris Fashion Week.
With intricate embellishments and voluminous sleeves, it's clear why a jacket on top of this hero piece just wouldn't work—something this gorgeous isn't meant to be covered up. Zoë balanced her dainty crop with dark corduroy skinnies and chunky boots, giving it a cool-girl spin Saint Laurent creative director Anthony Vaccarello would love. We hope to see more looks like this from Zoë—especially as we forge ahead into warmer weather.

A council in Birmingham is discouraging people from parking on grass verges due to the damage cars can cause.
But these contractors must have missed the memo. They were spotted parking on a verge as they put up a sign telling people not to park in the very same spot.
The sign, on Doveridge Road in Hall Green, says: "No motor vehicle parking on verge or footway."
Local councillor Timothy Huxtable, from Hall Green South, raised the picture with the city's Labour leader Ian Ward during council question time.
He said: "Would you instruct council drivers and contractors, not to park on grass verges?"
Leader of Birmingham City Council, Cllr Ian Ward, replied: "We place great importance on grass verges in this city. I can't explain why the contractors parked on that grass verge while putting up the sign and the irony of that fact is not lost on me."
He added: "There is no excuse for council contractors, or anyone else for that matter, to park on grass verges."

Hierarchical structured porous N-doped carbon coating MnO microspheres with enhanced electrochemical performances as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries
The N-doped carbon layer coating MnO microspheres with a core-shell structure (referred as MnO@NC) have been successfully synthesized by combining a facile hydrothermal method with the in-situ interfacial polymerization and subsequent carbonization process in this study. The experimental results manifest that the as-prepared MnO@NC composite exhibits a hierarchical and porous microstructure with better crystallinity and higher specific surface area. When the MnO@NC composite is evaluated as anode materials for lithium ion batteries (LIBs), it can show enhanced electrochemical performances, including the superior cycling performance (784 mAh g(-1) after 200 cycles at 500 mA g(-1)), good rate capacity (206 mAh g(-1) at a current density of 4 A g(-1)) and stable long-term cycling performance (881 mAh g(-1) after 250 cycles at a current density of 1 A g(-1)). The above enhanced electrochemical performances are ascribed to the synergistic effects between the unique microstructure and chemical composition. Therefore, the resultant hierarchical structured porous MnO@NC microspheres could be a promising candidate for the application to the next-generation anode materials in LIBs. (C) 2018 Elsevier Ltd.
