"That's it. I'm moving to Canada."
Whenever we're displeased or frustrated with the good 'ol United States of America, we threaten to seek sanctuary in our neighbors to the north.
Why? Because we just can't take it anymore: the gas prices, the unemployment and yet another losing season of our favorite sports team (Kentucky basketball aside, of course).
The Anderson County Little League all-star teams embark on their post-season journeys with the District 3 Tournament Saturday, July 7, at Anderson Dean-Park in Harrodsburg.

the 11- and 12-year old team will play Harrison County at 11 a.m. That division tournaments eventually lead to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pa. The tournaments will continue through Saturday, July 14.
Scenes from the 127 Softball Challenge.
The Anderson County Lady Bearcat Volleyball Clinic was held on June 23 at the school. The one-day all-skills camp focused on intensive group and individual drills in all phases of volleyball. Lady Bearcat coaches Courtney DeLong and Bobby Hardin provided specialized instruction during the day. The freshman, junior varsity and varsity teams helped facilitate the drills and worked one-on-one with each camper on volleyball fundamentals such as serving, passing, setting, blocking and both offensive and defensive techniques.
Kaitlyn Riley had no idea what to expect at the women's State Am golf tournament last week. But now she knows she wants more.
Much more.
The Anderson County High School junior might have put together the best four days of her young career last week when she advanced to the quarterfinal round of the match-play tournament, held at Elizabethtown Country Club.
Not bad for someone who had never played the 5,603-yard, par-72 course and had never participated in a match-play tournament before.
Anderson County will soon be the home of a new football field. This one will be serving the youth leagues of Anderson County.
"It is something that has been talked about for as long as I can remember," Anderson County Judge-Executive John Wayne Conway said last week.
CINCINNATI – What I love most about baseball is that you never really know what you are going to get when you go to the ball park.
Such was the case last Tuesday when my wife and I journeyed up to Cincinnati for our annual two-game excursion at Great American Ball Park.
The Reds were hosting the Milwaukee Brewers in a game that could have had some major ramifications in the National League Central Division race.
Laurie Goodlett knew what the competition was at the women's State Am golf tournament last week. After all, the former Anderson County High School and University of Kentucky golfer had won the event twice in the 1990's.
But at the Elizabethtown Country Club last Monday, Goodlett shot a 12-over 83 in the qualifying round of the tournament, putting her in the first flight, one of the consolation brackets of the prestigious tournament.
Anderson County resident Taylor Gillis found the third time really was a bit of a charm at the women's State Am golf tournament last week at Elizabethtown.
Gillis, who now plays golf for the University of the Cumberlands, shot a 7-over 79 in the qualifying round, good enough to earn a berth in the championship flight of the top 32 scores at the Elizabethtown Country Club. But in the match-play championship bracket, Gillis ran into some tough luck and went out in the first round.

Duquesne (7-4), winner of three in a row, completes the non-conference portion of the schedule at home against Bowling Green (6-5) on Wednesday, Dec. 31 at 4:00 p.m. (KQV-AM 1410).
The Dukes, who are averaging 88.3 ppg. during their current win streak, are taking on a Bowling Green team that has held its past four opponents to an average of 55.8 ppg. For the season, the Dukes are averaging 78.0 ppg., while BGSU's opponents are scoring at a 61.1 ppg. clip.
Duquesne has had five double-digit scorers in each of its past three games. Bob Cousy Award nominee (nation's top collegiate point guard) Aaron Jackson leads the Dukes with a 17.2 ppg. scoring average. Jackson, DU's lone senior, has led the Dukes in scoring in each of the past three games. He also leads the team in assists (5.8 apg.) and steals (2.3 spg.). Sophomore forward Damian Saunders (15.4 ppg.) leads DU in rebounding (7.6 rpg.) and blocks (24).
Duquesne's 18 non-conference victories over the past two seasons (DU was 10-3 in non-league play last year) are the most in back-to-back years since 1980 (11-6) & 1981 (8-8). DU has also clinched back-to-back winning non-conference records in consecutive seasons for the first time since 1993 & 1994.
Duquesne opens Atlantic 10 play at home against Charlotte on Jan. 7.
- Duquesne, one of the youngest teams in the nation with eight scholarship freshmen and 12 underclassmen, has won three in a row
- Either senior G Aaron Jackson (17.2 ppg.) - one of 34 preseason Bob Cousy Award nominees (nation's top collegiate point guard) - or soph. F Damian Saunders (15.4 ppg.) has led the Dukes in scoring in 11 of 12 games ... Saunders (.619) and Jackson (.587) both began the week ranked among the top 30 nationally in field goal pct.
- Freshman guard Eric Evans, who has been named A-10 Rookie of the Week three times, has set a new career scoring high in two of his past four games
- Junior Jason Duty has scored in double digits in the DU's past three games
- DU's four losses have come to teams with a combined 39-6 record (Duke is 10-1, Pitt is 12-0, WVU is 10-2 & Old Dominion 7-3)
- Duquesne's 18 non-conference victories over the past two seasons (DU was 10-3 last year) are the most non-league wins in back-to-back years since 1980 (11-6) & 1981 (8-8)
- DU's eight wins have all come by double digits
- The Dukes have won their games by a margin of +18.6 ppg.
- DU has outrebounded its past three opponents 120-84 (40.0 to 28.0, +12.0/g.)
This is the 24th meeting between Duquesne and Bowling Green ... DU holds a 14-9 edge in the series that began on Dec. 15, 1947 ... in games played at Pittsburgh, the Dukes lead 9-2 ... the two teams met every year from 1951-52 through 1962-63 (15 total games) ... the two also played home-and-home series' in 1948-49, 1979-80 and 2001-02 ... the 2000-01 meeting was the first since Dec. 28, 1984 (first round of the Rochester Classic) ... BGSU won the last meeting between the two at Pittsburgh by a 64-62 score on Dec. 5, 2001 ... Duquesne snapped a six-game road series losing streak with a 96-78 win last year at Bowling Green ... Duquesne's last win at Bowling Green prior to last season was on Feb. 5, 1955 when the eventual NIT champions and then-No. 4 (AP) Dukes defeated the Falcons 64-54.
- A victory versus Bowling Green would:
- End a three-game home losing streak against Mid-American Conference schools ... DU's last home win against a MAC team was on Jan. 7, 2004 over Ohio (96-91) ... the Dukes have lost their past three at home vs. the MAC.
- Give the Dukes nine non-conference wins. It would be just the second time since 1979-80 that a Duquesne team has won nine or more non-league games. The other was last season (10-3).
- Even Ron Everhart's record at Duquesne at 36-36.
The Falcons improved their home record to 4-0 with a 78-60 win over Eastern Illinois on Sunday ... the Falcons are 0-5 on the road this year with single-digit losses at Minnesota (68-61) and Ohio State (61-57) ... only two teams have scored over 68 points against the Falcons this season (Georgia State scored 76 in a 77-76 overtime loss on Nov. 14 and Illinois State scored 78 in a 78-65 win at home on Dec. 6) ... Bowling Green, which is limiting opponents to 61.1 ppg., has held its last four opponents to 38, 67, 58 and 60 points ... the Falcons are holding opponents to .372 shooting ... BGSU has four players averaging in double figures led by 6-4 senior Brian Moten at 13.1 ppg. ... Bowling Green is in its second season under head coach Louis Orr.

Damn. I was hoping it would be good, because I love Hugh Grant movies, and the cast and director are so promising. I guess I'll wait until it's in the cheap theatre and go with my 50 cent admission coupon :)
BTW, I went to school with someone who was actually named William Williams. We called him Wills. What were his parents thinking?

Waiting in the wings, dressed in his fancy lion-tamer outfit, loose white shirt and tight black pants, a red scarf around his waist, Jerin gasped along with the crowd as Mr. Moon sawed his partner, and possibly lover, though they never said anything, in two, and then in three. the boxes fell apart, revealing the air between the boxes. Yet Maria had remained alive, and Moon had put her back together. Then it was time for more danger.
Jerin ran out, waving as the ringmaster announced him. He grabbed a special whip from the rack and lit it on fire, timing his swinging for dramatic effect. Nearly invisible in the gloom of the still smokey interior from Moon's trick, a net descended from the ceiling, a net made of chains. Hidden in the smoke, stage hands pinned it to the ground, leaving Jerin trapped and alone in the ring as the big cats were released. There was always a gasp when this happened.
Boss came out first and stood on the highest tiger pedestal, Prime, the biggest lion came and stood on the highest lion pedestal. Their females, the tigers; Dusk, Dawn (twins), Tatiana, and Septibah, and the lions; Massai, Savanah, Deliah, and Alexandra, circled around three or four times before coming to rest on their pedestals. Still waving the flaming whip, Jerin deftly lit the single large ring hanging from the ceiling. Signaling to the cats, he stepped back, extinguishing the whip. Boss and Prime both leaped at the circle at the same time, Boss leaping over Prime through the flaming hoop. Then each of the females did their own tricks. Tatiana somersaulted through, Savanah went through tail first, and so on, till the ten big cats had completed that part of the act.
Then, taking a deep breath, Jerin signaled for the "bounce" which was his new part of the act. He lept onto Boss, grabbing onto his decorative collar, which had special hand-holds built in just for this purpose. Then, the cats began leaping all over the ring, even onto the chain net, which caused several shouts of fright, but the cage held. Jerin jumped off Boss when he came to a stop, and slightly weak-kneed, he signaled the final signal, and the cats all bowed in unison, sitting and putting their noses in their paws and rising again. Then they made a dash for the open gates, ready to go back to their pens and yowl about what a great performance they did, at least, thats what Jerin thought. He followed the cats as a slower pace, breathless from the speed of that last part of the act.
"Wow, you did so great!" Alliana bounced as soon as the crowd recovered enough to clap and cheer and otherwise cover up the noise behind the scenes.
"Thanks Alliana, you did too," Jerin returned, wishing his ears didnt turn red so easily. "In both your acts, now shh, the knife throwers are next."

Outlook To look at Essar Energy's trading update, you could almost believe this was nothing out of the ordinary. Move along, nothing to see here, business as usual.
Not a particularly pretty business, as evidenced by the trading update, but every company hits a bit of a sticky patch now and then, don't they?
So why is the City so cross? Behind closed doors, institutional investors are giving off more steam than one of Essar's refineries.
Well, there is the Ruia family's potential takeover bid, and the trading didn't give much of an update on that other than to say that, yes, they might buy the shares they floated at 420p back for just 70p.
Hence all the bluster (in private). If there's a part of your pension, ISA or unit trust in there, you can be reassured. Your fund managers have got your back. At some point they might even publicly say so.
Amid all the howling and gnashing of teeth, the company's independent directors have scurried to call in lawyers from Linklaters and establish a committee to consider the (potential) bid. So they're obeying the forms.
In reality, they know, and the institutions know, that the Ruias have them over a barrel. They either sell now for the pitiful price suggested or sit tight as the shares drift further down a black hole.
The question that really needs to be asked is why they let it get to this place. No one forced institutions to listen to the likes of JP Morgan and Deutsche Bank when they were selling the thing. The scale of the disasters at natural resources horrors Bumi and ENRC might not have been completely clear back in 2010 when Essar floated, but the dangers of having big, majority investors with the freedom to call the shots alongside you, ought to have been pretty clear.
It's true that the listing rules that allowed the float were too weak. They're still not tough enough. But that offers the institutions too easy an out. If big investors don't want to find themselves in the same place, they need to learn their lessons. The next time a someone comes with a similar offering they should be sent packing.Reuse content

GMO Industry Has Co-Opted The Concept Of Sound Science
On Twitter last year, Monsanto VP Robb Fraley asked why people doubted science. He linked to an article in National Geographic that implied people who are suspicious of, among other things, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are confused, adhere to conspiracy theories or are misinformed as a result of access to the "university of Google."
It is worth mentioning that science is not the giver of absolute truth. Science historian Thomas Kuhn wrote about the revolutionary paradigm shifts in scientific thought. Philosopher Paul Feyerabend argued that science is not an exact science, and the manufacture of scientific knowledge involves a process driven by various sociological, methodological and epistemological conflicts and compromises, both inside the laboratory and beyond.
But the answer to the question "Why do people doubt science?" is not because they have read Kuhn, Feyerabend or some sociology journal. Neither is it because a bunch of irrational activists have scared them witless about GM crops. It is because they can see how science is used, corrupted and manipulated by powerful corporations to serve their own ends.
U.S. sociologist Robert Merton highlighted the underlying norms of science as involving research that is not warped by vested interests, adheres to the common ownership of scientific discoveries (intellectual property) to promote collective collaboration and subjects findings to organised, rigorous critical scrutiny within the scientific community. Secrecy, dogma and vested interest have no place.
But if we really want to look at the role of secrecy, dogma and vested interest in full flow, we could take a look at in the sector to which Fraley belongs.
The GMO agritech sector is only concerned with a certain type of science: that which supports its aims.
In 2014, U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack called for "sound science" to underpin food trade between the U.S. and the E.U. Consumer rights groups in the U.S. are pushing for the labeling of GMO foods, but Vilsack said that putting a label on a foodstuff containing a GM product "risks sending a wrong impression that this was a safety issue."
Despite what Vilsack would have us believe, many scientific studies show that GMOs are indeed a big safety issue. But Vislack tries to prevent proper debate about issues that his corporate backers would find unpalatable. And "corporate backers" must not be taken as a throwaway term here. Big agritech concerns have captured or at the very least seriously compromised key policy and regulatory bodies in the U.S., Europe, India and in fact on a global level.
GM is so heavily pushed because it offers a lucrative way to control intellectual property and global supply chains. It's highly convenient for Vilsack to want to close down debate on the GM issue.
Coming from the GMO biotech industry, or its political mouthpieces, the term "sound science" rings extremely hollow. The industry carries out inadequate, short-term studies and conceals the data produced by its research under the guise of commercial confidentiality while independent research highlights the dangers of its products (many peer-reviewed studies are cited in the last link).
It has in the past also relied on fakery in India, bribery in Indonesia and smears and intimidation against those who challenge its interests, as well as the distortion and the censorship of science (see this and this about the "Seralini affair" as well).
The GMO agritech sector is only concerned with a certain type of science: that which supports its aims. Because if science is held in such high regard by these corporations, why isn't Monsanto proud of its products? Why in the U.S. doesn't it label foods containing GMOs and throw open its science to public scrutiny, instead of veiling it with secrecy, restricting independent research on its products or resorting to unsavoury tactics?
If science is held in such high regard by the GMO agritech sector, why in the U.S. did policy makers release GM food onto the commercial market without proper independent long-term tests? Where is the data to prove safety? It attempted to get around this by using the throwaway term "substantially equivalent," which has nothing to do with science. Foreign genes are being inserted into organisms that make them substantially non-equivalent.
Substantial equivalence is a trade strategy on behalf of the GM sector that neatly serves to remove every genetic modification to our food from proper scrutiny.
The reason why no labeling or testing has taken place in the U.S. is not due to "sound science" having been applied, but comes down to the power and political influence of the GMO biotech sector and because a sound scientific approach has been substituted for fraud and mass deception.
It is not science itself that people have doubts about, but science that is pressed into the service of immensely powerful private corporations.
The sector cannot win the scientific debate so it resorts to co-opting key public bodies or individuals to propagate various falsehoods and deceptions. Part of the deception is based on emotional blackmail: the world needs GMOs to feed the hungry, both now and in the future. This myth has of course been taken apart many times before (for example, here).
People's faith in science is being shaken on many levels, not least because big corporations have secured access to policy makers and governments, and are increasingly funding research and setting research agendas.
Ultimately, it is not science itself that people have doubts about, but science that is pressed into the service of immensely powerful private corporations and regulatory bodies that are effectively co-opted and adopt a "don't look, don't find approach" to studies and products.
Or in the case of releasing GMOs onto the commercial market in the U.S., bypassing proper scientific procedures and engaging in doublespeak about "substantial equivalence" then hypocritically calling for "sound science" to inform debates.
Finally, if Robb Fraley wants to know why people doubt his company -- and indeed the science that it supports -- its track record of duplicity and criminality is clear for all to see. That alone provides very good reason why so many would doubt and challenge powerful corporations and the type of science they fund and promote.
Perhaps the question we should be asking is: Mr Fraley, why isn't Monsanto on the side of science?

PNE 1 Barnsley 2
Barnsley took the points with a late goal at Deepdale despite Aidan McGeady's debut stunner for the Lilywhites.
Sam Winnall opened the scoring just before the half hour mark, poking home from close range after Marley Watkins' miss-hit shot had gone across the box into the six yard box for an easy tap in for the Tykes front man.
McGeady then marked his debut with a stunning 25-yard strike to level matters just after the hour mark, but one of Barnsley's new men then put them back in front, Adam Armstrong breaking quickly and finishing coolly inside the final ten minutes.
Manager Simon Grayson had handed debuts to deadline day signings Marnick Vermijl, Alex Baptiste and Aiden McGeady in a 3-4-3 formation on a mild afternoon at Deepdale.
The Lilywhites had a good opening ten minutes, but it was the visiting skipper Conor Hourihane, just named Championship player of the month for August, who brought the first shot on goal. His snap shot volley from the edge of the box after a ricocheted clearance; well saved by Anders Lindegaard, tipping the ball out of the top right hand corner.
North End were inches away from the opener on 15 minutes when Paul Gallagher's free kick from 45 yards beat everyone and hit the right hand post, with Adam Davies beaten, but the ball ricocheted away from any waiting North End attackers.
The opening goal came on 27 minutes when Marley Watkins picked up the ball in the left hand corner of the penalty area and shot across goal, passing everyone only for Winnall to tap home on the slide at the back post.
The home side had chances to draw level before the break; firstly Eoin Doyle fed Gallagher on right, he drilled a ball across the edge of six yard box, but Marc Roberts got to it ahead of Callum Robinson to concede a corner.
And just before the interval a long ball from Gallagher was controlled by McGeady, who in turn laid back to Vermijl, but a defender nicked in just in front of the Belgian to concede corner, when it looked like the former Manchester United man was in on goal.
The second half started with North End pressure, with Robinson driving in from the left and drilling a cross from the left byline that took a touch off a Barnsley man, but only away to safety and then skipper Tom Clarke headed inches wide.
But they were level on 64 minutes with a superb strike from debutant McGeady. A corner on the right was played short by Gallagher to Vermijl, who fed the ball inside to McGeady 25 yards out, who took a step left and fired a left foot screamer into the top left hand corner giving Davies no chance.
They then had a great chance to go ahead just three minutes later when Robinson again caused problems down the left and delivered a deep ball for Doyle, but the Irishman's glancing header took the ball wide of the right hand post from ten yards out.
McGeady was now finding pockets of space and was on the edge of the box when Doyle reached a od down from substitute Jordan Hugill and laid it right to the new No.14, but this time his right footed effort was dragged wide of the right hand post.
The pressure now was immense as the Lilywhites spread the play from one side to another, opening spaces with Hugill and Robinson both having chances; the former from a header from Gallagher's cross and the latter on the turn after more good play from McGeady.
However, with 11 minutes left a counter-attack saw the visitors back in front. The ball was given away in the middle of the Barnsley half and a long ball into the channel found Adam Armstrong, on debut, who cleverly turned to create space and then curled the ball past Lindegaard into the bottom left hand corner.
Skipper Tom Clarke burst into the box, latching onto a lay off from substitute Makienok and forced a save from Davies as North End looked to put the momentum back into the game after the visitors' second goal, but Barnsley managed to waste away the added time and hold on for the points.
PNE line-up
: Lindegaard, Vermijl, Spurr (Hugill, 60), Baptiste, Clarke (c), Cunningham, Welsh, Gallagher (Johnson, 77), Robinson, Doyle (Makienok, 82), McGeady. Subs not used: Maxwell, Browne, Pringle, Huntington.
Barnsley line-up

Questions and Answers
How to use hibiscus flower and leaves to grow hair at home?
Which is best to use, the hibiscus flower or its leaves, for promoting quick hair growth naturally?
You actually have to use both the hibiscus flower and the leaf for hair growth. All you have to do is collect the leaves and petals of hibiscus. Make sure you collect a lot because you have to crush it and get the juice out of it. Traditionally people have used a mortar and pestle to crush it. However, if you want it fast, you can also use a food processor. Once you have created a paste out of crushed hibiscus flower and leaves, simply mix it to your shampoo. Apply it to your hair and lather it like you would normally do for the normal shampoo. Leave it on for about 5 minutes then rinse off. If you want, you can also mix the hibiscus paste to your conditioner.
Which hibiscus flower is good for hair?
I understand the hibiscus flower is an herbal remedy which promotes the growth of hair. There are so many different hibiscus plants which one is the correct one to use?
Any type of hibiscus flower is good for the hair. However, it becomes more effective if you will also utilize the leaves. Combine both leaves and petals and grind them and add to your regular shampoo. Make sure that you do not throw away the juice that comes out from grinding. Put everything into your shampoo solution and leave it in your hair for at least 5 minutes. If you do this on a regular basis, you will be able to see visible results in a span of a few months.

Can I use Fenugreek seeds to make a mask and then use Amla as a tea?
I have dry African hair that I would like to hydrate on a daily basis.
While you can use a mask and follow up with the tea it may not give the results you want for your hair type.
African hair usually requires heat to allow a product to fully penetrate the hair. The addition of glycerin to any oil mixture may also be beneficial. You may want to apply a hot oil treatment, cover it with a shower cap (or plastic) and sit under a hair dryer so that the oil will have a higher chance of fully penetrating the hair shaft.
For continued daily relief and hydration, a leave-in conditioner which contains aloe and fruit, or nut oils such as coconut, Shea butter, and cacao can be used. If you wear your hair naturally, lightly dampen your hair and massage the leave-in conditioner into your scalp and through the ends of your hair during your bath or shower.
Try to avoid any products that contain petroleum or mineral oils as these may contribute to African hair problems. Petroleum and mineral oils are not moisturizers themselves but can only help seal in moisture if it's there in order to help protect the hair during styling. Petroleum and mineral oils may also clog the pores of the scalp.
How many times should I do this with tea through out the month and how will it increase my hair length?
How many times should I do this with tea through out the month and how will it increase my hair length
Rosemary and Green Tea Rinse:
- Green Tea ( 4 tablespoons loose or 6 tea bags)
- Two fresh sprigs of rosemary or two tablespoons of dried rosemary
- Four cups water
Boil water and steep the rosemary and green tea covered for 5 to 10 minutes. The longer you steep the tea the stronger amount of oil will be extracted from the rosemary. If you use fresh sprigs then just take a slotted spoon and remove the sprigs, dried rosemary you will need to strain the tea before using. Use this tea after you shampoo your hair. Apply to the wet hair and allow it to penetrate the hair shaft for 5 minutes and rinse with lukewarm water or leave it in depending on how the texture of your hair is. Rosemary contains compounds that stimulate circulation in the scalp, promoting hair growth. The herb also has a calming effect on a dry itchy scalp as well. The smell is pleasant but if you feel it is too strong you can rinse your hair is warmer water, although you will lose some of the benefits of the rosemary. You can add a little bit of coconut oil to the tea if you have frizzy or dry hair. The green tea contains Vitamin E which will help soften your hair. The presence of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) in green tea is highly effective for hair loss which also promotes better hair length and volume. The antioxidants in the green tea will breathe new life into your hair each time you use the hair rinse.
How can we use hibiscus for promoting thickness?
I use to have thick hair when I was young, but now the thickness has completely gone.
The Hibiscus flower and leaves are definitely ways to regain your hair thickness. Heat up 1/4 cup of coconut oil and add the flower and leaves of a hibiscus stalk. Use the oil as your hair conditioner every time you shampoo your hair.
I have fresh Hibiscus growing in my garden, how can it help in straightening my hair?
I have dry scalp and a very wavy hair which is difficult to manage. Let me know the way those unmanageable curly hair can be managed. Also I have a problem of premature whitening.
Coconut oil combined with sage is beneficial to dry scalp issues as well as premature greying. Combine 2 drops of sage oil with 2 to 3 tablespoons coconut oil and massage it into your scalp and hair at night, rinse in the morning. Depending on how thick your hair is, you may need to double or triple the amount you make.
How to use raw hibiscus leaves and tell me whether I can use shampoo after it?
I have short and thin hair..I need long and dense hair
Hibiscus can be added to your shampoo or used combined with your favorite hair oil as a conditioner. You could use the oil as a hair and scalp treatment on dry hair before you shampoo but also it is just fine to use it after you shampoo. It is your personal preference as both methods give the same result.

Hair fall and frequent dandruff problem?
My texture of my hair is normal. Very frequently I suffer of dandruff which leads 2 massive amount of hair fall through which I lost half of my hair volume can you please suggest ways through which I shall not suffer with dandruff and hair fall. I have tried: Not so. I think it was caused by: I don't know I am suffering very much of this problem
Follow the steps for the Rosemary Green Tea Hair Rinse in this VisiHow article. You also can combine mint leaves with the hair rinse as well as apple cider vinegar to balance your scalp PH and restore it to normal.
See more questions like this: For 8 months I have been having a plenty of hair falling out
My hair is dry and very thin, looks lifeless?
I have been trimming my hair every 30 days to facilitate growth but the growth is very slow. For the past 2 years I'm trying, but it is jut shoulder length. Moreover scalp can be seen if I apply little oil because of the scanty hair. I have tried using brinhraj ayurvedic oil but no use. It appears like under nourished hair.
Trimming hair is a myth for promoting hair growth. While you are taking off damaged ends of hair strands, it does not promote the hair strand to grow faster. Focus on your scalp which is where new hair growth begins. Because applying oil to your hair reduces volume in your situation, you should instead steep the hibiscus flower and leaves in green tea and use that as a hair rinse after shampooing your hair. Once a week use two egg whites as a scalp and hair mask for 30 minutes before you shampoo your hair. Follow by rinsing your hair in lukewarm water and applying the daily hibiscus green tea hair rinse. You will have nourished hair in no time!
Do you recommend any over the counter Ayurvedic shampoos for grey and thinning hair?
I am a 59 years old male with Pitta Dosha
NaturOli Soap Nuts Natural Shampoo is a highly recommended Ayurvedic shampoo, however it is becoming very common to see major hair care companies adding coconut or argan oil to hair products. Whatever shampoo you purchase, try to look for the least amount of chemicals listed in the ingredients and avoid shampoos with Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLS) which is damaging to hair. To control the Pitta which causes excess oil in your hair, you need to avoid spicy, oily or sugary foods as well as tea and coffee. Increase your intake of green leafy vegetables like kale.
How to prevent my hair from falling and dryness?
I have hair fall problem since 3 years and my hair get into dry and broken one. Please give some tips to prevent it.
Listed in this VisiHow article are several remedies for you dry and damaged hair. Try the hibiscus remedies and determine which method is best for you.
How to make hair oil to make my hair longer, smoother, silkier and thicker and to to stop graying?
Constant use of chemicals has made my hair very dry and rough and it does not grow beyond shoulder length. My son is 16 and I already could spot a few grays in his hair. Please help
Begin using coconut oil on your hair each day. Rub a small amount in the palms of your hands and run your hands through your hair beginning at the ends, working your way up to the scalp. Use an all natural shampoo like the No Poo method of apple cider vinegar to clean your hair.
Hi, I have immense hair fall, I use hibiscus leaves to wash my hair, but some days my hair fall is severe?
Nowadays I oil my hair with coconut oil regularly, but in few days I use to wash all the oil from my hair and keep it very smooth and oil-free. When I apply oil to my oil-free hair, it seems that I lose about 30-50 hairs. Why is that happening?
Everyone looses hair strands each day. If you are applying the coconut oil to your hair it can bind the normal hair loss strands to healthy strands until you wash your hair. This is why you most likely are seeing so many strands after you wash out the coconut oil.

Dry flower also crushed or only fresh flower?
I want dry hibiscus flower used to made oil
When making hibiscus flower oil at home it is best to use the fresh blossoms and macerate them well to release their healing essential oils. Although dried hibiscus flowers will help condition your hair and encourage hair growth as well, it is the oils and fresh constituents in the fresh blossom that pack a powerhouse of nutrients. However, some people use the dried hibiscus blossoms or hibiscus powder because they find it less expensive than buying the fresh blossoms.
Can any kind/variety/hybrid of hibiscus flower and leaves be used for hair growth remedial purposes? My hibiscus flower is light purple with a red center.
My hair is not only thinner now but is showing signs of (early) alopecia, these problems are concentrated on the frontal crown (above the forehead area. I have now health problems and have had a full blood test -ALL GOOD- flying colors!. I am 64 years old have had a FULL, head of hair, thick, black and glossy hair. Not so now! Help. Many thanks
Any kind of hibiscus flower and leaves will work. Crush the flower and leaves in Aloe Vera gel and apply to your areas of thinning hair due to alopecia. You also should increase your intake of Vitamin C rich foods as well as vegetables like potatoes and cucumbers. These foods are beneficial to treating disorders that cause alopecia.
Can I use dried hibiscus petals mixed with coconut oil for hair loss due to medication?
I have to take medication daily that is causing my hair to fall out and has become very thin. I found a website where I can order dried hibiscus petals, but need to know if I can use JUST the petals, or do I need to use the leaves as well. Will the dried petals work, or do I need fresh? Also going to order fenugreek powder. If you have any info on that, I would so greatly appreciate any help. I'm desperate!! Thanks in advance.
You need the leaves as well as the petals.
I have dandruff and lice & nits, I want to get rid of it?
I have dandruff and lice & nits, I want to get rid of it
Mix 1/2 cup of vinegar and 1/2 cup of salt in a spray bottle. Saturate the hair and scalp and wait for it to completely dry in the hair. Then apply olive or coconut oil to the hair and cover with a shower cap over night. Lice can survive without air for several hours but the salt and vinegar will break down their skeletal system and then the oil will eventually suffocate the lice. In the morning you will need to comb the hair with a fine tooth comb to remove the dead lice and nits. Repeat this treatment if needed.
See more questions like this: Hibiscus to get rid of dandruff and hair-fall, please help me out on how to use?
I get flakes and itch in my scalp now and then. When I shampoo and condition it, flakes and itch go away and comes back in few days, any solution to stop permanently?
I get flakes and itch in my scalp now and then. When I shampoo and condition it, flakes and itch goes away and comes back in few days, any solution to stop permanently?. I have tried: Changing shampoos, applying packs of natural herbals. I think it was caused by: Body heat.
Apple Cider Vinegar will restore the PH balance on your scalp. Use the vinegar as a hair rinse instead of conditioner for 2 days a week and you will see improvement.
Hair fall continually even in normal?
Hair was falling a lot while bathing, combing and even in normal. How to stop it. Please give me an idea. I have tried: Egg massage on my bald area. I think it was caused by: No idea
You may just be experiencing your "seasonal" shedding. If you have changed your diet or started a new medication then these also could be causes for hair loss. Try the hibiscus treatment mentioned in this article. You can also apply Castor Oil to the area. Within 6 months, if you are still having larger than normal hair loss, speak with your medical doctor about treatments such as Minoxidil or Propecia to regrow hair.

Her story
Barbara Hulanicki, 77, fashion designer and founder of Biba
I named Witold after my father, and from a young age he was incredibly strict about how his name should be pronounced. It's "Vee-told!" he'd remonstrate sternly. When I told my mother I was pregnant, she said: "At last!" I was 30, which was regarded as late. Fitz, my late husband, was absolutely crazy about Witold. Whenever I had one of my hormonal eruptions the two of them would say: "We're going out. Let us know when you're better." They were a very close father/son unit.
We always had a home near the [Biba] shop so Witold would come in everyday and sit down at a little table next to me, sticking things together. He thought all the assistants in the shop were his actually sisters.
We waited for him to become difficult, but it never came. When we found out that Fitz had three months to live [Stephen Fitz-Simon died of cancer in 1997], Witold was 29 – and he was so strong. He never cried. The day Fitz died, we were so spent that to cheer ourselves up we watched Absolutely Fabulous the whole afternoon.
Two months later, I got cancer in the uterus. I said to Witold: "Now I'm going to go" – he almost dissolved. I knew then I had to get my act together and keep going – for him.
A couple of years ago he married a boy. Now I have two sons and I'm crazy about them both. He came out by sending me a photo of them saying he'd met somebody. I was a bit upset that he had waited so long. But everything has its own time. He's a hippy child, my best friend and I am tremendously proud of him. He's just like Fitz. Very strong. Resilient. Not at all like me.
His story
Witold Fitz-Simon, 46, yoga teacher
Even as a toddler, I knew that the furniture, the colours, the design of our house – was different to other people's. Mum and Dad worked so hard and always on amazing things. On New Year's Eve I would be woken at 11.30pm by my nanny and taken to the Biba store to watch the fancy-dress parade from backstage. I was never excluded.
They were such a strong unit. And when we moved to Brazil, where they knew nobody, it didn't matter because they had each other.
Whenever there was a piece on them in the newspapers they'd buy 15 copies for their archives. I thought everyone's mum was famous for something. I'd look at other kids and think – your mum isn't constantly creating things?
Mum made me a feminist. I was in awe of how she juggled the work-life balance so expertly. She was empowered and valued by all. When things with Biba fell apart, their world came crashing down. I was seven and couldn't do anything about it. I put my arms round her, but felt it wasn't enough.
Dad died so quickly. But I still had mum, and we continued doing the things we always did together. We even considered pitching a satirical magazine show about the fashion industry.
When I met my husband, it was clear this was an important relationship. I sent her a selfie of us. She giggled which was the best possible response you could hope for. I wish her father hadn't been killed [Hulanicki's father was assassinated by paramilitaries in 1948]. She lost him when she was 12 years old in dreadful circumstances. She's a real inspiration. Creative, uncompromising and has lived a fearless life. I'm so grateful for that.

A lovely house called "Linker Oever";-)
Goodbye noisy polluted amazing New York, here I am, in a lovely town not far from Hudson where my Amtrak train arrived. My friend Phil came to pick me up, I will stay 4 nights with him and his family.
So nice a place to live. lots of land, to Belgian standards, the house surrounded by lawns, a little pond in the corner, trees and a little wood and even a little brook!
The house is beautiful, and a sign indicates the given name: "Linker Oever", ...
Catskill- Mast up!
... for sure since tonight was a write-off in the way of getting things done. If it's really too late we can stay here another night I'm sure although we have not asked- this is actually the first night that we pay to stay in a marina so I guess it's not the end of the world if we have to stay on one more. Without even walking far off the marina grounds there is already more at our fingertips here than in most places we have been lately. We'll see what tomorrow ...

Just before leaving Mechanicville we got an email from Lock One Marina that they had still not received our filters.... at least we now knew we would be at our anchorage at a good hour! We left just after 8 am to tackle the last two locks in the Champlain Canal and the Federal Lock at Troy. We did still stop at Lock One Marina for diesel, and he filled us up so quickly we were even still able to make it through Lock 1 with the other sailboat Callipyge we had been traveling ...

Summary: Dean's gone…again. WARNING! Character Death!
Challenge WOW: Side
Word Count: 100
Let it Be
Choke, cough, wet breathing. Holds his side to keep the life in. Tears in younger eyes, begging for this to end.
He tries to splutter out words to make it better, that it was alright. He'd be okay. Can't hear, can't see, can't breathe…Pain...
"DEAN!" A far off echo. Baby brother's voice. "I can fix it, I can fix you!"
Can't speak. Dying. Cold… Black. No. Don't leave Sammy. Can't. No. DON'T!
"NO!" Sam bawled holding his bloodied brother, sobbing, hand still on his stomach. That was the seventy-eighth time Dean died, and it wasn't getting any easier.

Arsène Wenger offered up a headline-seeking soundbite yesterday as he addressed the delicate issue of how to prepare his team for two tests that come in quick succession. After tonight's Champions League play-off second-leg against Celtic at the Emirates, in which Arsenal hold a 2-0 aggregate lead, comes the 5.15pm Premier League match at Manchester United on Saturday.
"Celtic is a more important game for the club than Saturday, by far," said Wenger. "Because against Celtic, you cannot catch back. Even if we drop points against Man United, you can always catch back. You still have 35 games to go. If you miss the Celtic game, you have zero. It is a massive game. It is much bigger than Saturday."
Wenger does not want his players to consider the job already done against Celtic; one of his favourite sayings to help to maintain focus is that "the next game is the most important". If Arsenal had to suffer a 3-0 defeat in either match, everyone at the club would prefer it to come at Old Trafford, however difficult that might be to bear.
Yet for all his rhetoric, Wenger knows he has the chance to strike an early blow against United and given that little is ever black or white in these matters,, rather differing shades of grey in between, part of his thinking for the Celtic tie has involved how he can get the result that he needs while also conserving the energy of as many of his likely starters for Old Trafford as possible. He is also painfully aware that United do not have the inconvenience of a midweek fixture.
There are problems for the Arsenal manager as he prepares for the trip to Old Trafford. He has already ruled out the winger Theo Walcott, who is suffering from inflammation to his lower back, and he fears that the captain Cesc Fábregas has only a 40% chance of making it as he struggles with hamstring tightness.
Then again, with Fábregas not due to play after the weekend until the following Saturday, for Spain against Belgium, and with his scan having revealed no muscular tear, Wenger pondered: "Why should we give him an extra break? Why should we be over-protective?"
On the subject of Walcott and the forthcoming international games – England play Slovenia in a friendly and Croatia in a World Cup qualifier – Wenger was emphatic. Fabio Capello, the England manager, ought not even to consider calling up Walcott.
"I can't see a player who has played one half of football since June [against Valencia in pre-season on 8 August] going into vital games for England; there is no way," he said. "If he doesn't play against United, how can he play for England? His scan was fine, he has no hernia but he has pain. We wait until he has no pain. Theo has had surgery on both shoulders, his shoulders are less flexible but I don't know. He's injured and nobody can tell you where that injury comes from"
England managers tend to observe an unwritten rule that if a player does not play for his club in the game before an international break, he is not called up. But under Fifa rules Capello could name Walcott in his squad and insist that he reported for a fitness test, at the very least.
Wenger has a number of other casualties – Tomas Rosicky, Samir Nasri, Carlos Vela, Johan Djourou and the goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski – and although he would like to rest players against Celtic, as he did in the Premier League victory over Portsmouth last Saturday, he is expected to keep changes to a minimum.
Robin van Persie appears the most likely to step down, with Eduardo starting in his place, and if Arsenal are comfortable Wenger would then make substitutions around the hour. That could mean early cuts for Denilson and Andrey Arshavin.
"The top teams have to cope with games coming on top of each other," said the Celtic manager Tony Mowbray, "and Mr Wenger has a number of options. It's only when he gets to the big games that you see his best XI." Wenger is gearing up for precisely that this Saturday.

Barnaby: Pretty face, but is it worth the burn scars?
Barnaby turned as what he assumed to be the last in their party to enter the room. He was never one to be struck by a woman's beauty, but this girl was exceptional.When she declared her profession, he made a mental note that she may be pretty, but she could probably melt his face in 2 seconds flat. Oh well, she seemed intelligent so at least he would have someone to converse with for however long this fools' errand would last.
Clearing his throat, the king sat up in his throne and threw them all a look. Barnaby guessed it was supposed to be a gaze that radiated his power and status, but he looked more like a constipated old man than a monarch.
"You may leave, young people. Remember when you must return. If you do not, you will be marked off the list of questers and refused even compensation for your time!"
They all bowed, mumbled something suiting and then left the throne room. Barnaby didn't feel like returning to his dingy room just yet, so he made his way to the palace gardens. The gardens were the only part of the castle open to the public and with good reason. Magicked bushes bowed and cavorted, and small rare creatures walked docilely among the trees. The place was guarded so that nothing, especially the small and wondrous beasts, would be stolen so it was ironically, one of the the safest places to be. Barnaby found himself a small alcove made out two trees woven and interwoven until they formed a structure, and began to read.


text: I would like to yank the cable card from my Roamio Pro and stick it in an older TiVoHD that is currently hooked up to ethernet only (sans card). We transfer shows to the back room for viewing but would like to ditch the Fios STB and try a cable card (again). The current card in the Roamio is the specific M card that works properly so we can decrypt Cinemax, HBO, MGM and Sony Networks. The card is paired to the Roamio (and what a boondoggle that was back in August). Is it possible to just pull and plug just to see if it works? Is it that simple? Would I have to pair it to the TiVo HD? Would I then have to pair it again to the Roamio once I have finished the experiment? Any thoughts on how to do this? I'd like to see if the old TiVoHD still has what it takes before I order another card for it.

Not All Stories Have Happy Endings
The never Ending Nightmare
Never ending......
Suffer in silence forever.
No hero to save me, for no one knew I was here.
No one is born a hero, they just become one.
But my story has no night in shinning armor to come whisk me away. Only the monsters..... but hero's are not the only saviour.But who else?
A bone hand griped around my face.
It tightend it's hold!
Hands of bones began to rise up a grab me.....
Pulling me down
Opening my eyes,I could only see from one.
Seeing my family, I cried out for them to help me.
Going down further.
They just stood there watching me sink.
Feeling my heart wreanched open! Yelling for them to help. To help save me....but they just stared.
They began to change, their faces replaced by hollow ones.
Their bodies collapesd.
Turning into dust to be torn away in the wind....torn away from my heart.
Never to return.
A Never Ending Nightmare.......
Never Ending........

Leonard Wilson's new volume, 'Lyell in America', is an important addition to the literature about one of the nineteenth century's most significant figures in the history of geology and evolutionary biology. It is especially valuable for making available much unpublished material from Lyell's wife Mary's prolific and beautifully written correspondence from America. Wilson gives us a fuller picture of the Lyells' observations of and reflections upon slavery and other social issues in America than we have previously had, and he provides a good account of Lyell's scientific views on speciation, including his criticisms of both catastrophist and creationist explanations and his unwavering (if ultimately mistaken) skepticism of the progressionist explanation. This rewarding book significantly enriches our knowledge of Charles Lyell.--R. H. Dott, Jr., University of Wisconsin Madison

Following the contest between Italy and Scotland we take a look at how the individual players performed.
Andrew Lo Cicero: Crucial component of the dominant pack who forced the Scottish into silly errors and dominated the scrum. 6
Fabio Ongaro: Came in for missing captain Leonardo Ghiraldini and had a decent game. Another decent scrummager, though was fairly sketchy with the line-out darts. 6
Martin Castrogiovanni: The official man-of-the-match looked tired when he limped off the field towards the end. The heartbeat of the Italian side may be coming to the end after another campaign with little to cheer. Does he have another comeback left in him? 7
Quentin Geldenhuys: Put in a decent shift in a game which was about as hard work to watch as it was to play in. However is a fairly immobile presence in the loose. Solid in the line-out. 5
Marco Bortolami: Another who laboured hard without ever making a huge impact around the park, but disrupted the usually solid Scottish lineout to good effect. 7
Alessandro Zanni: His sin binning was indicative of a scrappy, barely functioning game. Managed to nullify Scotland's vaunted ball carriers well however. 5
Robert Barbieri: Canadian born flanker was less involved than in previous weeks, and struggled to make much ground with ball-in-hand. Suffered from stubbornly running down Scottish alleys. Made little impact. 5
Sergio Parisse: Unsurprisingly the best player on the pitch. Just looks a class apart. Deserved to win the game against the abject Scots, and can at least take solace from avoiding a wooden spoon. 7
Edoardo Gori: Italy's half back woes have been well documented, but Gori is a functional scrum half. Passed the ball fairly well considering his fly half consistently sat 20 yards behind him. 5
Kris Burton: Kicked a very good drop goal and found his range from hand in the second half. But – seriously – the guy must have a phobia of the gain line such is his distaste of approaching it. Sits so deep he's practically in a hole. And the one time he actually approached the Scottish defence line on a flat attack, he set up Venditti for the Italian's try. Bizarre. 4
Mirco Bergamasco: Can feel fortunate his awful penalty kicking didn't prove crucial. Not his fault he's the best of a bad lot, and actually did fairly well when possession eventually came his way. 6
Gonzalo Canale: Catch, run, crash into opposition – this is the Canale method. The guy makes one-dimensional centres look positively versatile. Not helped by his fly-half's positioning however. 4
Tommaso Benvenuti: Disappointing campaign considering Benvenuti has a bit more skill than he's shown in this Six Nations. Has the potential to show flair but would be helpful if Italy had any kind of clue how to build incisive attacking phases. 4
Giovanbattista Venditti: Nice try, darting around the stretched Scottish defence to dot down, and having grabbed two in his debut Six Nations, can feel fairly happy. 5
Andrea Masi: Feeling persists Masi isn't really a full-back, but did provide one or two of the game few moments of quality, with a couple of decent counter attacks. Put under very little pressure by Scotland though. 5
Pick of the replacements – Monoa Vosawai : Fijian born flanker managed to wake up the watching public with some eye-catching ball carries and powerful running. Stood out in agame which had gone from really bad to painfully awful. 6
Allan Jacobsen: Out scrummed for most of the game, with Scotland only getting into the set piece towards the end. Offered nothing around the park. 4
Ross Ford: Line-out throwing was surprisingly dreadful, considering how solid it's been all tournament. Captain was indicative of a team who simply didn't appear to want to be there until the 68th minute. 4
Geoff Cross: Anonymous around the park and out-scrummed. Scotland visibly perked up when he was replaced by Euan Murray. 4
Richie Gray: Has been Scotland's outstanding performer all tournament, but even he appeared to be infected with the apathy which led the Scots to turn in a woeful performance. Tried to rally the side but to no effect. 5
Jim Hamilton: Harshly sin binned but involved in some calamitous line-out mix-up's. Physically dominated by Italians. 4
John Barclay: Couldn't get his hand on the ball as Italians effectively dominated the breakdown for most of the game. Offered very little. 4
Ross Rennie: Poorest performance of his Six Nations. Guilty of some bad errors in handling and discipline and couldn't get a foothold in the breakdown. 4
David Denton: Exciting player but totally outplayed by Parisse. Disjointed efforts at ball carrying was in keeping with the scrappy efforts of his teammates. 4
Mike Blair: Has a decent pass from the base but barely had a chance to use it as Italy dominated possession. Has to take portion of blame for Scotland creating absolutely nothing against a poor Italian side. 4
Greig Laidlaw: Had some good moments in this tournament but his decision making and defensive frailty raises serious questions over his long-term suitability as Scotland's fly half. 4
Sean Lamont: Totally anonymous. The Scots usually kicked whatever ball came their way, but didn't go looking for work either. 4
Graeme Morrison: One of the only visible Scottish back on show. Through in numerous tackles against the ball hogging Italians, and almost got away for a break away try after a good hit on Burton. But was mired in a truly awful game of rugby. 5
Nick De Luca: Got sin-binned for a very silly attempt to kick the ball from Gori's hands and then came back on, only to see Hamilton to depart. The referee may have undermined Scotland's comeback efforts, but likewise De Luca et al did very little to open up a fragile Italian defence. 4
Max Evans: Moved out to wing but it was more likely his hands would suddenly fall off than have the opportunity to catch and run with a rugby ball. 4
Stuart Hogg: Defended decently, and wasn't hugely tested by the repetitive huff-and-puff of the Italian attack. And, late on, made a darting run through broken field which finally gave Scottish fans something to cheer. An attacking spark which was totally absent from the rest of a diabolical 80 minutes. 5
Pick of the replacements – Euan Murray : Andy Robinson appears keen to give Geoff Cross a run as Murray does not play on Sunday's for religious observance reasons. But he's Scotland's best prop by a huge distance. So has to start whenever he can. 6
