British film producer Alison Owen, who has worked with Weinstein on five movies including the upcoming Tulip Fever, said he could be a "sleazeball" at times.
Ms Owen told BBC Radio 4's PM: "Harvey is one of the old-style film moguls. When he was good he was very, very good and when he is bad he is horrid.
"He can be fun and gregarious and generous. He can also be a bully, a nightmare and – as has been proved this last week – he was more than that in terms of the allegations of sexual abuse from lots of young women."
She added: "I had a couple of experiences where he proved himself to be a bit of a sleazeball. That was no surprise – that was his reputation in the industry."
Ms Owen recalled an occasion when she was alone in a screening theatre with Weinstein to watch an early cut of Meg Ryan's 2003 thriller In The Cut.
"When we sat down to watch it was soon apparent why he wanted to see it," she told PM. "Meg Ryan has a rock-solid 'no nudity' clause in her movies and had never taken her clothes off until this film.
"Harvey immediately started talking to the projectionist asking him to move it on to get to the bit where she gets her tits out… His breath was getting shorter and shorter, he was ranting more and more and I wondered what was going on back there. It crossed my mind that he was masturbating.
"I wasn't myself abused. If he was doing it, it was to Meg Ryan's breasts. It made me feel certainly that he couldn't care less what I thought about him."
She added: "I always operated a policy of protecting women, particularly young women, around Harvey. I would never let anyone have a meeting with him on their own."

LOL: 'A Charlie Brown Christmas' Gets a 'Stranger Things' Remake
Posted on Friday, October 28th, 2016 by Angie Han
So much of Stranger Things' irresistible pull stems from its uncanny ability to push all your nostalgia buttons. It feels like classic Steven Spielberg and vintage Stephen King, referencing pop culture touchstones and reminding Gen Xers and older Millennials of a time when middle school kids were allowed to roam freely. But what if Stranger Things went even further? What if it doubled down on its nostalgic appeal by transforming itself into another childhood favorite, A Charlie Brown Christmas?
A Stranger Things Christmas imagines Will Byers struck by a downright Charlie Brown-esque sense of ennui right around the holiday, and going around getting advice from his old D&D buddies. And yes, they get a good Barb-related jab in there. Watch the Stranger Things Peanuts mashup below (but be warned there are major spoilers if you haven't finished Stranger Things season one).
Leigh Lahav and Oren Mendez created the Stranger Things Peanuts mashup.
Some of the voice work here is impressively on point — they even get Eleven's grunts right. And while the idea of a Stranger Things Peanuts mashup may not sound intuitive at first, they work surprisingly well together. Part of it is that Stranger Things already has a slight Christmas theme to it, between those colored lights and the cute little holiday ending in the season finale. And both Peanuts and Stranger Things are stories about kids. But really, it's that it just makes so much sense for Will to return from the Upside Down with some lingering emotional and psychological issues.
The parody video serves as kind of a sequel, with Will Byers newly returned from the Upside Down but not feeling quite like himself. "Will Byers, you're the only person I know who can be rescued from a mysterious paranormal universe and still find a way to feel crummy about it," notes Dustin. He then turns to Eleven, who has tons of Eggo waffles but very little advice to offer, and his mother Joyce, who speaks in Peanuts' usual garbled adult language. "Sometimes I think you just can't talk to grown-ups unless it's through light-up letters on a wall," Will sighs to Lucas.
Nothing helps: not Mike's dance party set to the Stranger Things theme song, not a chat with the Demogorgon (who's standing in for Snoopy). But then he comes to the big epiphany. "I guess I should feel happy the whole town came together to save me, and that's what happiness is all about in the end," he says. "The people who truly care about you. The folks who would do anything to get you out of a creepy parallel swamp universe."
It's a heartwarming moment… or it would be, if the screen didn't cut to the Demogorgon's other victim, who doesn't have any of that. "Good grief," groans a very dead-looking Barb. Ouch. Good thing she can look forward to getting some justice next season.

Hampton Union, August 30, 1962
[The following article is courtesy of the Hampton Union and Seacoast Online.]
Construction of an eight grade parochial school and convent located on property to the rear of Our Lady Of The Miraculous Medal church got underway earlier this week.
Father Matthew Casey said work was expected to be completed on the two structures in time for the opening of school for September of 1963.
At the same time, Father Casey announced the construction work had been awarded to the Caron Construction Co. of Manchester. Architect for the project is Andrew Isaak also of Manchester.
The main school will consist of construction of eight classrooms immediately with provisions for expansion to 12 at a future date. The school will also contain a nurses room, principal's office, lobby, kitchen, cafeteria and a 80 by 100 foot auditorium gymnasium. The building will be two stores high with four classrooms on each floor.
The structure itself will consist of brick in keeping with the present construction of both the nearby Centre school and Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal church.
Preliminary work this week has consisted of excavation for the two buildings and the installation of drain pipes and fill. A drainage system has been connected with that at Tuck Field during the past week.
Father Casey said an announcement will be made in the near future concerning dates for registration of all pupils through the first five grades for the September 1963 school session. Dates will be set either in September or early October of this year giving all persons desiring to do so the privilege to register.
Although the school will comprise eight classrooms, the number of actual grades will depend upon the number of persons registering and the availability of teachers for next year.
Plans will be formulated during the winter months and prior to September for the school sessions. Father Casey also said details are presently being finalized for possible construction of a rectory on the church property at a later date. These plans are presently only in the planning stages.

Endura Racing riders Alexandre Blain and Rob Partridge were listed as not having finished the Tour of the Mediterranean, despite climbing all the way to the line at Mont Faron on Sunday.
The two riders battled to the top of the climb near Toulon but when they reached the finishing straight they found the road full of fans who had spilled over the barriers to watch the post-race presentations.

Before seeing the official result sheet, Endura Racing's manager Garry Beckett told CW: "It'll be a shame if they're not credited with finishing but it was so chaotic at the top I'd be surprised if the organisers would have been able to tell whether they crossed the line or not."
The fifth and final stage was won by Italian Francesco Masciarelli (Acqua & Sapone), eight seconds ahead of Alejandro Valverde (Caisse d'Epargne), Rinaldo Nocentini (AG2R-La Mondiale) and Robert Gesink (Rabobank). Valverde clinched the race win overall.
Endura's Evan Oliphant finished the stage 65th, in a group that was 20 minutes, with Ian Wilkinson 72nd and, according to the official results, last classified rider over the line a few seconds later.
The race had been held in freezing conditions, with snow and ice causing havoc all week. One stage was cut short because of the ice.

|About this Recording
8.223365 - THALBERG: Fantasies on Operas by Donizetti
Sigismond Thalberg (1812–1871)
Some mystery surrounds the birth and parentage of the virtuoso pianist Sigismond Thalberg, popularly supposed to have been the illegitimate son of Count Moritz Dietrichstein and the Baroness von Wetzlar, born at Pâquis near Geneva in 1812. His birth certificate, however, provides him with different and relatively legitimate parentage, the son of a citizen of Frankfurt, Joseph Thalberg. There seems no particular reason, therefore, to suppose the name Thalberg an invention. Legend, however, provides the story of the Baroness proclaiming him a valley ("Thal") that would one day rise to the heights of a mountain ("Berg"). Thalberg's schooling took him to Vienna, where his fellow-pupil the Duke of Reichstadt, the son of Napoleon, almost persuaded him to a military career. Musical interests triumphed and he was able to study with Simon Sechler and with Mozart's pupil Hummel. In Vienna he performed at private parties, making a particular impression when, as a fourteen-year-old, he played at the house of Prince Metternich. By 1828 he had started the series to compositions that were to prove important and necessary to his career as a virtuoso. In 1830 he undertook his first concert tour abroad, to England, where he had lessons from Moscheles. In 1834 he was appointed Kammervirtuos to the Emperor in Vienna and the following year appeared in Paris, where he had lessons from Kalkbrenner and Pixis.
Paris in the 1830s was a city of pianists. The Conservatoire was full of them, while salons and the showrooms of the chief piano-manufacturers Erard and Pleyel resounded with the virtuosity of Kalkbrenner, Pixis, Herz, and, of course, Liszt. The rivalry between Thalberg and Liszt was largely fomented by the press. Berlioz became the champion of the latter, while Fétis trumpeted the achievements of Thalberg. Liszt, at the time of Thalberg's arrival in Paris, was in Switzerland, where he had retired with his mistress, the Comtesse Marie d'Agoult. It was she who wrote, under Liszt's name, a disparaging attack on Thalberg, to which Fétis replied in equally offensive terms. The so-called "revolutionary princess", Princess Belgiojoso, achieved a remarkable social coup when she persuaded the two virtuosi to play at her salon, in a concert in aid of Italian refugees. As in other such contests victory was tactfully shared between the two. Thalberg played his Moses fantasy, and Liszt answered with his new paraphrase from Pacini's opera Niobe. The Princess declared Thalberg the first pianist in the world, while Liszt was unique. She went on to commission a series of variations on a patriotic theme from Bellini's I Puritani from the six leading pianists in Paris, to which Liszt, Thalberg, Chopin, Pixis, Herz and Czerny contributed. This composite work, Hexaméron, remained in Liszt's concert repertoire.
Musical journalism has created a legend of Thalberg's defeat and departure and continuing rivalry between the two. An element of competition remained, although there seems to have been no open animosity and Liszt wrote a letter of condolence to Thalberg's widow, after his death in 1871. Thalberg went on to enjoy a career of the greatest distinction, touring as far as the Americas, where Liszt never went, with recitals in Brazil and Havana and an extended stay, with the violinist Vieuxtemps, in the United States, where, in the space of two years, he gave 56 recitals in New York, with a repertoire chiefly but not entirely devoted to his own compositions. Liszt, meanwhile, included some of Thalberg's operatic paraphrases and fantasies, which, through Marie d'Agoult, he had once publicly disparaged, in his repertoire.
In 1843 Thalberg had married in Paris the daughter of the famous bass Luigi Lablache, widow of the painter Boucher. Attempts at operatic composition proved unsuccessful, with Florinda, staged in London in 1851 and Cristina di Suezia in Vienna four years later. His career as a virtuoso continued until 1863, when he retired to Posilippo, near Naples, to occupy himself for his remaining years with his vineyards. He died in Posilippo in 1871.
Thalberg's Grande fantaisie sur des motifs de la Norma, Op. 12, won praise from Schumann, who generally had little time for mere technical virtuosity. There was about Thalberg's playing, and in consequence about his compositions for the piano, a certain element of classicism, and this certainly appealed to Clara Schumann and others who disliked the showmanship of Liszt and his habit of "improving" the music of others in performance. Thalberg exercised considerable discipline over his performance, his upright posture, he alleged, the result of smoking a meerschaum while practising technical exercises. Chopin, however, was not impressed, claiming that Thalberg used the soft pedal for his effects rather than securing a soft tone by touch, as he would have done. One particular effect used by Thalberg was displayed in the setting of a melody to be played by the thumbs of right and left hand, surrounded above and below by arpeggios, giving the impression of three hands rather than two. He achieved this in part by his subtle use of the sustaining pedal. Critics commented on his runs of pearl-like clarity and the singing tone of which he was capable is taught in his pedagogical work, L'art du chant appliqué au piano, in which he uses examples drawn from opera.
The Fantasy on Operatic Themes was in the 19th century a composition of importance in its own right, serving to delight audiences by the familiarity of its melodic material and the ingenuity and artifice exerted in its virtuoso presentation. Thalberg turned his attention for this purpose to many composers, to Mozart, Weber, Rossini, Spontini, Bellini, Auber, Hérold, Benedict, Verdi, Meyerbeer and Halévy. His fantasies on themes from operas by Gaetano Donizetti start with variations on the final Andante from the opera Lucia di Lammermoor, first staged in Naples in 1835 and in Paris in a French version four years later. The opera was based on the novel by Sir Walter Scott, The Bride of Lammermoor, in which the heroine, Lucy, falls in love with the master of Ravenswood, Edgar, but tricked into believing him unfaithful is induced by her family to marry another. When she learns the truth she goes out of her mind and stabs her husband. When Edgar learns of the subsequent death of Lucy, he kills himself.
Thalberg again returned to Donizetti in his fantasy on themes from the opera Lucrezia Borgia, a work that had been mounted at La Scala, Milan, for the first time in 1833. The libretto was based on a novel by Victor Hugo, a historically improbable tale of the love of Gennaro for Lucrezia Borgia, and his fate at her hands, when she accidentally poisons him as well as his friends, although she claims to be his mother.
Two further fantasies on themes from Donizetti made use of elements drawn from the comic opera Don Pasquale and from La fille du régiment. The first of these operas was written in the winter of 1842 and performed early in January the following year in Paris. The elderly Don Pasquale attempts late marriage, with the purpose of siring children and thus disinheriting his nephew Ernesto. He is induced to see reason by what he supposes to be a real marriage to his nephew's betrothed, disguised and behaving as an untamed shrew. All ends happily, when Don Pasquale agrees, with relief, to allow his nephew to marry the girl. Thalberg's fantasy captures something of the spirit, humour and romance of its source La fille du régiment, later revised in Italian as La figlia del reggimento, was first performed in Paris and later in Milan in 1840. Marie, the daughter of the regiment, has been adopted by soldiers of the 21st Regiment. She falls in love with Tonio, who, to be allowed to marry her, enlists in the regiment, only to find that she has been claimed as the long-lost daughter of a Marquise, who has other plans for her. These are eventually abandoned, and she is allowed to marry her first lover.
The theme on which the variations on L'elisir d'amore are based is that of the second act barcarole, a duet for the quack doctor Dulcamara, whose alcoholic love-potion has caused much of the complication of the plot, and the heroine Adina, to the words "lo son ricco, e tu sei bella" (I am rich and you are beautiful). The words prove true for the hero Nemorino and for Adina, who are finally united.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants cornerback Trumaine McBride and center Jim Cordle both left Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys due to injury.
McBride said he suffered a groin injury, but isn't sure how serious it is yet.
Coach Tom Coughlin said McBride's absence was felt. "It did hurt us because you see the shuffling around that had to take place to get the proper alignment to try and defend their three- and four-wide passing," Coughlin said.
Cordle suffered a knee injury. He said an initial X-ray was negative and it's not an ACL tear.
"MRI tomorrow. Hopefully it's not serious. Definitely couldn't go back in," Cordle said.
With Cordle out, the Giants shifted left guard Kevin Boothe to center, and inserted James Brewer at left guard.
Defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul, who has been playing through a shoulder injury, was spotted going into the X-ray room after the game.
"I'm OK," Pierre-Paul said. "I just hurt my shoulder, that's it. I'm OK. Physically, I'm OK."
Pierre-Paul had just one tackle and no sacks in the game.
Wide receiver Hakeem Nicks, who was listed as questionable but had said he would play against the Cowboys despite an abdominal injury, was declared inactive for the game.
Nicks had no comment upon leaving the Giants' locker room after the game.
When asked if Nicks was close to playing Sunday, Coughlin said, "He didn't practice all week. We made the decision not to play him."

Tony Abbott chomps into a raw brown onion
PM Tony Abbott left onlookers shocked as he chomped right into a raw brown onion with the skin on and all. Courtesy: Vine/ABC News
TONY Abbott just can't get enough of raw onions, munching down on yet another of the stinky vegetables in his office today.
The Prime Minister met with Onions Australia CEO Lechelle Earl in Parliament House following his visit to an onion farm in Tasmania last week.
During his visit last week the PM was filmed eating a raw onion, with the skin on, like an apple.
Today he did the same thing in a meeting with Ms Earl in his office.
"He peeled a bit of the skin off this time but he took a few bites," Ms Earl told News Corp Australia.
"It was a brown onion. He checked it out, remarked that it was similar to the one the other day and then took a few bites and said it was tasty."
Ms Earl came to Canberra to give a personal thanks to the Prime Minister for backing the onion industry.
She said more Australians should eat onions and encouraged all politicians to follow Mr Abbott's lead on trying them raw.
Ms Earl baked a sweet potato, feta and caramelised onion quiche and delivered it to Mr Abbott along with 5kg of red and brown Australian onions.
She also had a hamper that included local Canberra onion relish, onion marmalade and some crackers.
"He loved the quiche," she said.
"He also said he really supports the onion industry and more people should eat Australian onions."
Ms Earl also delivered a hamper of onions to Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce.
"He was happy to get them but he joked that he would have preferred them to have been Queensland onions," she said.

Actor uses bird poo to stay free of wrinkles
Ever wondered how megastar Tom Cruise keeps his skin looking so young and smooth?
Well, Now can reveal that the Rock Of Ages hunk, who turns 50 on 3 July, is indulging in Victoria Beckham-style bird poo facials!
Yep, you read that right.
A source tells us: 'Tom doesn't go in for Botox or surgery, but he does pay close attention to all the new and popular natural treatments.
'He recently started experimenting with the nightingale poo facial.
'It was recommended by a Hollywood pal and the results have been fantastic.'
*Pauses to vomit*
The £135 treatment – made famous when Posh was reported to have used it – was invented by beautician Shizuka Bernstein and is now big in high-end New York, LA and London spas.
It involves mixing nightingale excrement with rice bran and water, then applying the mixture as a face mask under UV lights.
The poop contains enzymes that work as a powerful exfoliant, plus guanine, a compound that gives the face a nice pearl-like glow.

This is a definite fiver!
I read over 50 reviews of this book before I decided to get it, and they all said the same. Brilliant but oh so many errors. As a writer and freelance proofreader this really turned me off, and even after I bought the book, I waited about a month before I decided to finally give it a try…because seriously, I can handle a lot, but heck no errors in a book. And yes, that's where I was mistaken.
In fact, RULE is written in such an awesome style that the errors didn't even start to bother me. And hell, yeah, that is a first!
The story begins with Rule waking up next to an ink bunny, who he better get's out of his bed soon, because he has business to do. And before we learn what's really going on, SHE already stands in the door. Shaw. He doesn't bother that she sees him naked with a slut in his room. Heck, she's seen it every Sunday over so many years. He only knows, he has to get up, get clean, and get his ass into her car in ten minutes, or she'd drive off without him. Everything that comes after this particular scene is pretty cool romance staring a nice girl that doesn't want to be as nice any longer, and a guy who has tattooed BAD all over him. They do match! Just not from the start.
And now I'd like to stop giving you a rerun of the book, which you can read in mostly all of the 1400 reviews on Goodreads anyway, but focus on the one fact that really hooked me and made me read all the way through, even though the story line seemed a little dragged on after the middle. It's Jay Crownover's amazing way to play with words. Being a writer myself, I of course look at books differently than most other readers, and it takes a lot for me to fall for a book. I've put more books down in the past couple of month after the first chapter than I actually finished reading, but with RULE, I realized after page two that this is remarkable writing and totally worth to be read.
It's when we're in Rules mind at the beginning and see him struggle to get his shit together in time, that I felt myself starting to hold my breath, reading that bit faster, just to get to the point where the first real bit of information is revealed. His name.
I was all set for a silent ride, but apparently she had things to say today, because as soon as she pulled the car onto the highway, she turned the radio down and said my name. "Rule."
The author has a unique way of letting her mouth loose and making a point with everything she says. Her dialogues are a bit long at times, but they always serve a purpose and make sense, and it's just beautiful to listen to Rule and Shaw debating things.
Now I gotta go see if I still have a girlfriend or if I managed to drink myself single last night.
However, the most memorable line came from a person you may deem as a side character, but the gal sure gives everybody shit who messes with her guys in the tattoo shop. Her name is Cora, and she's just the friend Shaw needs at this phase in her life.
I think it's genetically impossible not to be kind of in love with him, when you come equipped with a vagina.
Some of you follow my reviews, and you all know I'm honest to a fatal point with what I say about books. So I won't lie here either. There were a few moments in the book where I wanted to jump right in and slap the heroine upside her head. It mostly happened when she was around or thinking about her parents. The way the author made this woman crawl in front of her folks just didn't work for me. I would have wanted the girl to stand for herself from the first time her idiotic mother opened her mouth, or when her absent father threatened to stop coming up for tuition if she didn't play nice with the jerk, who's mostly called Polo Shirt in this book. But for the sake of a nice story, I turned my rage button off and just read over it until the very end.
And the end came clean and beautiful, with enough setup for more books in the Marked Men Series, but also with a nice solution that doesn't leave you hanging like some other books I've read.
Over all, I totally enjoyed this book, but eventually I have to say that something happened to me here, which is very rare. When I finished Rule, I didn't go like "Aww, I want to reread it and just relive all the beautiful moments with this sexy guy" like I normally do when I close a good book. No, this time my only thought was, Heck, I wish I could write like Jay!
Major congrats to Jay Crownover for creating a phenomenon with her debut novel. I wish her lots and lots of success while she's trying to figure out how to deal with the change in her life. And if you're curious now about who the amazing mind behind this book is, come back in a few days because then I'll have Jay over at my virtual place and we're talking about the good things and the crap that came along with the success.
See you around!

CoreTalks: Julie Bartley – Having Personal Goals in the Music Business
There's something about the music business – perhaps about the arts generally – that has an irresistible attraction. How else to explain the fact that so many talented people try to make it in this highly competitive and insecure sector of the economy, where the glamour and high rewards are shared by few, where great effort and sacrifice pays off only for the lucky? There are many safer bets, career-wise, so it must be some kind of calling.
It was definitely that for Julie Bartley, sound engineer and founder of Rolling Audio (www.rollingaudio.co.uk) but one that was tempered by her own view of what defines success. "If you measure success by what my profits are, I'd be a failure," she says. "But if you measure success by how happy I am and how canny life is, then I'm very successful."
Taking the first step
Julie was progressing up the career ladder as a nurse in Newcastle when she gave up employment to care full-time for her son. The decision gave her an opportunity to re-evaluate what she wanted from life and, when her son was better, she decided to do a foundation course in music production at Newcastle College then added a year to convert it to a BA(Hons) in Music Enterprise.
It was recognition of a lifetime dabbling with technology. At an early age, Julie had taught herself how to bounce tracks on a tape recorder and later she'd be the one who recorded jam sessions at home on a 4-track (because she was the only one who'd read the instruction manual). She explains how this was an outlet for her creativity: "I never had music tuition apart from learning recorder at school but I seem to have this ability to understand music. I have all these ideas in my head – how do I express them? If I know about the technology, I can do that."
The course took a holistic approach, combining technology with teaching on networking and commercial skills, so what was originally planned as a hobby turned into a business. Julie worked hard on a business plan. "But I hesitated to start," she recalls. "I realised after talking to my business advisor that the only thing stopping me was my courage." She took full advantage of the training on offer from Business Link (now North East Business Support Fund, nbsl.org.uk) and the North East music support agency Generator (generator.org.uk). This meant a lot of hours and a lot of networking.
Being a sound engineer
It was initially difficult. Work was hard to come by but Julie was helped out by her former tutors at College, who lent her equipment, and early contact with Mike Coleman at Core Music, who referred any local enquiries about recording to Julie. Recognising that professional musicians were increasingly likely to have their own studios, she focused on rural Northumberland's strengths: classical and folk music. Her first big job was recording a concert given by the Hexham Orpheus Choir, using high-end microphones she'd been loaned.
Rolling Audio works with grassroots musicians who might be starting out on their music journey and with experienced professionals – she contributed vocal recording and fiddle overdubs on the first album by the unique Wall folk duo the Brothers Gillespie. One-to-one advice on recording is also an option and Julie runs training courses at Core Music from time to time. She is developing spoken word recording, which requires a different approach, and is now working on this with a London company. She also records wildlife and has been known to rise at ungodly hours to lurk in the undergrowth to capture the dawn chorus. "It's a lovely experience sitting in the woods at 4 am, watching the sun rise," she says. There are examples of Julie's recording and audio productions on the Rolling Audio website.
Women in the music industry
One of the most exciting of Rolling Audio's current projects is an all-women initiative led by the talented singer–songwriter Beccy Owen (Facebook). Beccy has several albums to her name (find her on Bandcamp: beccyowen.bandcamp.com) and she had the idea after becoming disillusioned with the way the male-dominated industry treats women artists. Beccy put together a band with an unusual line-up – two drummers, percussion, vibes, piano, electric guitar, viola and violin, bass and double bass – and a former Newcastle College tutor suggested Julie as an engineer and co-producer. The band sounds great live and initial recordings have gone well. How does the all-woman experience compare to having men in the room? "The studio environment can be very masculine and the technology looks like a spaceship," Julie says. "Even in practice sessions, this band works more collaboratively. It's a different vibe. Women are kind and supportive, there are no egos." A single is planned for June 2019 with live dates to follow.
Misogyny is not, of course, confined to the music industry but it is prevalent and the problem has now been acknowledged. Julie was one of only three women on her college course but there is now a drive to increase the proportion of women engineers and producers. The Music Producers' Guild has recognised the achievements of women in its annual awards and initiatives to promote gender equality now include Both Sides Now (www.brightersound.com/bothsidesnow), Women Make Music and KeyChange (prsfoundation.com). Julie is now considering how to help women in the North East who want to get involved with recording and production, with workshops a likely option.
Less is more
And there's no need to go all space-shippy with gadgets for recording. Julie records direct to an Apple Mac and uses Logic Pro as a digital audio workstation. She has a Focusrite Sapphire, two Octopre multi-preamps plus quality microphones (she ended up buying those mics she borrowed). That's the kind of lean setup that won't appeal to gadget nerds but, thanks to the power and flexibility of digital technology, it's all she needs to deliver the goods.
"Technical possibilities can stifle creativity," she adds. "Lately, I've got into GarageBand – it's really accessible and fun. Because it's a very stripped-down version of Logic Pro, there are many things you can't do but fewer choices means you get on with making music. It has opened up the fun side of creativity again."
Julie recently released her first solo recording: Earth Mother is a mantra for all the earth mothers and protectors. It's available on Bandcamp at julieb.bandcamp.com/track/earth-mother-mantra.

Product Description
Features: -9 Carbon fiber far infrared heaters, ETL approved, best performance.-Double layer Canadian western red cedar T&G timber, best insulation.-UL Listed components and ETL approved, use with confident.-Built-in AUX control and 2 premium speakers….MORE INFORMATION
For the majority of folks, you can easily enjoy a few 15-20 moment sessions per week to reap the maximum benefits of infrared sauna treatment.
I had moderately severe eczema...the sauna is exactly what really made my harsh, cracked, purple irritated skin turn around.
The heat produced by a Far Infrared Sauna is an entirely different kind of heat: Radiant Heat.
Infrared wavelengths are the invisible the main sun's spectrum consisting of near (NIR), middle (MIR) and far (FIR) rays. A 30 minute infrared sauna program causes a temporary 3° F increase in human body heat. From the naming of these types of saunas, it really is obvious that the main distinction between the infrared and conventional saunas is the technique of heat manufacturing. CHILL SAUNAS OF has actually shown the Relax Sauna at about 300 Medical and other conferences since 2003. This is certainly the most extensive posts on infrared saunas that I have on the net!
About Freedom 4 Person Carbon
Infrared saunas provide a means when it comes to body to rid it self of dozens of toxins and continue maintaining good general health. ASK - Always consult a health expert if you have got a chronic illness and aren't sure about sauna usage. I often seemed on craigslist for... My wife has already been wishing for an infrared sauna for rather awhile. For extended advantages such as weight reduction and discomfort relief it's advised that you utilize the sauna three to five times a week for a month. Nevertheless, the far infrared rays enter your skin to a depth of about anyone to three ins. Carbon heaters boast the outstanding advantage of spreading the temperature much more evenly around the sauna product. Far infrared rays are safe and often used to warm premature infants in medical center incubators. Therapeutic near infrared light is invisible to your naked-eye and has a frequent result without severe light or heating. Lamp saunas, in my experience, usage about 1/3 less electrical energy to function than a far infrared sauna.
There clearly was so much to gain from sauna sessions that many medical practitioners tend to be promoting them in some instances. Traditional saunas (the kind with a stack of wood, charcoal, or rocks steaming within the corner) use heat to warm up the environment, thus warming your human anatomy from the exterior in. Far-infrared saunas (FIRS), as they're technically called, use infrared light (that is the main one between visible light and radio waves in the electromagnetic spectrum) to create temperature in your system from inside away. Because of the dissimilarity in air heat and moisture amongst the two sauna types, some bathers do react differently from a single to another. Research reports have shown that benefits of an infrared sauna session can burn upwards of 600 calories while you unwind! When you are to a gym or spa with a sauna bath, most likely you are utilized to seeing a rather huge room that looks like it took several thousand dollars and a ton of time, effort and room to construct. Infrared home heating, she added, can provide some of the advantages of saunas without a number of the dangers of saunas." It may be safer for people who have heart condition because the human anatomy heats up more slowly. Just book yourself a regular 45 minute sauna program, and it is paid for from your membership advantages.
Some manufacturers work to reduce the EMFs in their particular far infrared services and products but the other benefits of near infrared sauna are so abundant that reducing EMFs is not adequate to contend with NIR saunas!
While all the statements behind infrared sauna as a miracle experience certainly do not hold up, a surprising quantity of them do. The only method to beat these chemical substances, like phthalates, is an Infrared Sauna. Far infrared may be the longest wavelength which penetrates unwanted fat cells causing vasodilation, where in fact the fat cells vibrate to expel toxins, resulting in the best amounts of cleansing and excite your metabolism to assist in weight-loss. In reality, the portable dome type saunas are also very popular for smaller businesses while they take up minimal space. This sauna uses the exact same patented far infrared emitting radiators as the unwind sit-up sauna. Infrared sauna heat works by penetrating joints, muscles and tissues, increasing circulation and speeding oxygen flow. Never believed it would be like a conventional sauna however it is. That is my Christmas present - thanks!
Nearly all of the time, the older saunas were running on building a fire under the sauna, or warming rocks in a fire, which tend to be then held in to the sauna or perspiration lodge. The recommended temperature range for infrared sauna sessions is 120-150 degrees. This sauna is ideal if you prepare to utilize it with ozone treatment or as a stand-alone sauna. Other studies show Near-Infrared Light Therapy (NILT) can effortlessly treat traumatic brain injury clients. Among the infrared waves, the far infrared rays, which may have a wavelength of 8-14 microns, tend to be especially great for the human body.
I know that many people claim that we need far infrared rays, but we donÕt agree with this specific because we donÕt find it become the truth.
Infrared heat is a type of power that is directly transmitted into objects via its particular wavelength. Those who stand behind infrared sauna therapy think it naturally has an inflammation-lowering effect, acts similarly to antioxidant nutrients, activates the cells, helps with wound healing, enhances the metabolism helping eliminate toxins from your body. In an infrared sauna, the heat is approximately 110 - 140 degrees Fahrenheit. Apparently, this new wave of light therapy can help you detox, drop some weight, boost the defense mechanisms, lower tension levels and improve sleeping patterns. It is the only sauna with three individual heating elements so that you can truly provide complete spectrum infrared. The efficacy of infrared waves is extremely broad and the main topic of current study by NASA.
Medical Studies have documented that Infrared Sauna Therapy reduces blood pressure, improves bloodstream circulation and re-balances the body's metabolic process. Our advanced Solocarbon Full Spectrum infrared heating technology has the unique ability to heal wounds faster and minimize scarring through the utilization of near infrared LEDs. Extremely tiny quantities of lead, copper, and nickel do appear in sweat, but if you have dangerously high levels of these metals within your body it is probably best that you visit a hospital instead of an infrared sauna. It is why it is precise to state infrared is 7x more detoxifying than old-fashioned heat." You could have noticed that, instead than provide a citation to show the reason why it is accurate to state infrared is seven-times more detoxifying than old-fashioned temperature, HigherDOSE opted for a mathematical rephrasing. The Sauna Tent is a portable enclosure manufactured from radiant insulted product that prevents the photo therapy rays from escaping. The Infrared Sauna Therapy can be an excellent addition to a heavy steel or chemical detoxification program and for basic wellness.
Detoxification — Detox in the deepest cellular level many thanks to an increase in your core body's temperature. A 2010 research published when you look at the Journal of Complimentary and Alternative Medicine found that far-infrared sauna use is related to improved quality of life in people with kind II diabetes , even if when compared with other lifestyle treatments. With your mind and body in a fully relaxed post-float condition already - together with your parasympathetic neurological system unwound and ready for recovering - the benefits of 30 mins within the infrared sauna are compounded. According to a 2012 report published by medical practioners at Wellman Center for Photomedicine of Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, technological developments have resulted in infrared sauna devices that deliver far-infrared light wave radiation (FIR) right to the human body without any groups needed.
This is why a portable one may be for you - it is an inferior form of a consistent spa unit that will require absolutely nothing more than a space to place it in and a heater of some sort (usually an electric powered or gas stone heater) to steam it. You can find a space as part of your home, garage, shed and on occasion even your backyard - no matter, as long as you have got the proper capacity and heating unit. For instance, folks with excessive levels of toxins in their blood stand to benefits a great bargain from the detoxification aftereffects of perspiring in a sauna. Infrared wavelengths penetrate the body to produce heat, which creates profound therapeutic benefits.
At Francis' office in New York, patients put on their particular swimsuits and sit inside a Clearlight cedar wood infrared sauna, where they relax with songs and chromotherapy lights (she says they're used for chakra balancing.") In Los Angeles' Shape House you'll don sweats and cuddle up under an infrared heat blanket while you're watching Netflix. Heat calms muscles and the increased penetrative nature of infrared heat means it offers even greater leisure of all muscles, tissue, and various other organs. The infrared light heats the body in identical method in which the sun does, and also this is much much more relaxing, not producing the same sensations of overheating and oversweating.
Using FAR Infrared Sauna
The infrared saunas provide a more friendly temperature level as the temperatures range between 120 to 150 degrees Fahrenheit.
Infrared wavelengths tend to be the invisible part regarding the sun's spectrum consisting of near (NIR), middle (MIR) and far (FIR) rays. An infrared sauna controls the amount of temperature, therefore rendering it safer and easier to breathe in than in an everyday product. The infrared band in the range of light is one that we perceive as heat. We recommend only using purple heat lamp light bulbs with the Sauna Fix as the healing processes of this human body respond well to the wavelengths emitted by these bulbs. Anti-aging results, increased detox, discomfort decrease, combined and muscle help, and aerobic recovery are currently where infrared saunas are gaining the many interest. One downside by using these temperature degrees of the traditional sauna is that they may prove also much for folks who are responsive to lots of heat. Infrared temperature is a different kind of heat than traditional wet or dry saunas, therefore even though you do sweat you are doingn't feel as hot as you might in a traditional sauna.
Learn after study locates new programs for far infrared saunas and new advantages from their use.

Myanmar's president has freed 46 people in a general amnesty, state media reported on Tuesday, and at least three were prominent political prisoners according to a pro-democracy activist.
In addition to the 46 Myanmar nationals, authorities freed 34 foreigners under the amnesty, state media said.
Human rights activist Ko Ko Gyi, who was himself only released in January, told Reuters that three of those freed, Than Zaw, Ko Aye Aung and Pyit Phyo Aung, were political prisoners.
Under President Thein Sein's quasi-civilian government, which took office in March last year, more than 650 political prisoners were freed between May last year and January.
Among the latest, Than Zaw, a former youth member of Aung San Suu Kyi's National League for Democracy (NLD) party, had been in prison since 1989 for a bombing that another man had confessed to, according to the Assistance Association for Political Prisoners (AAPP).
Western countries have renewed engagement with Myanmar since the reformist government took office and they have urged that all political prisoners be released as a condition for the full lifting of sanctions.
Since April, many embargoes have been suspended to encourage reform.
The number of political prisoners still being held in Myanmar remains subject to dispute and the government has said the delay in releasing them is to distinguish between activists and what it calls terrorists or common criminals.
Suu Kyi's NLD said last month that it counted 330 political prisoners still in jail. AAPP said there were 471 as of May, including 16 women and 50 Buddhist monks.
State media did not say where the foreigners released under the amnesty were from or give any details of their convictions.Last Mod: 03 Temmuz 2012, 09:23

Amplified RNA synthesized from limited quantities of heterogeneous cDNA
The heterogeneity of neural gene expression and the spatially limited expression of many low-abundance messenger RNAs in the brain has made cloning and analysis of such messages difficult. To generate amounts of nucleic acids sufficient for use in standard cloning strategies, we have devised a method for producing amplified heterogeneous populations of RNA from limited quantities of cDNA. Whole cerebellar RNA was primed with a synthetic oligonucleotide containing the T7 RNA polymerase promoter sequence 5' to a polythymidylate region. After second-strand cDNA synthesis, T7 RNA polymerase was used to generate amplified antisense RNA (aRNA). Up to 80-fold molar amplification has been achieved from nanogram quantities of cDNA. The amplified material is similar in size distribution to the parent cDNA and shows sequence heterogeneity as assessed by Southern and Northern blot analysis. Specific messages for moderate-abundance mRNAs for actin and guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G-protein) alpha subunits have been detected in the amplified material. By using in situ transcription to generate cDNA, sequences for cyclophilin have been detected in aRNA derived from single cerebellar tissue sections. cDNA derived from a single cerebellar Purkinje cell also has been amplified and yields material that hybridizes to cognate whole RNA and mRNA but not to Escherichia coli RNA.

This July 4th will be different for me, and all it took was a "sieg heil" and dozens of cautionary injunctions to walk only where it is safe.
Having just spent seven days in Europe, I learned more about how Jews live in England, France, Germany and Belgium than I ever could have by reading some report. Speaking with not-so-ordinary citizens in cafes, synagogues and restaurants, and being briefed by security experts, community leaders and professors, I was stunned by the bleak picture they painted.
The numbers on anti-Semitic incidents in 2006, compiled by Tel Aviv University's Stephen Roth Institute, do not speak well of the Jewish condition in Europe: A 60% increase in anti-Semitic incidents in England, daily verbal assaults in Berlin, a 100% surge in Belgium, and a 24% rise in France.
And if anything, it's getting worse, with Jews ever more fearful of venturing out of proscribed Jewish corridors. In the U.S., we're watching for fireworks as Independence Day approaches; in England, Belgium, France and Germany, our brethren are watching for firebombs.
Community Security Trust in London and Manchester is the British Jewish community's defense organization. It advises and represents the community on matters of anti-Semitism, terrorism, policing and security. Responsible for the protection of more than 600 communal buildings, CST is currently engaged in a $6 million Protective Window Project to retrofit and/or reinforce windows in Jewish communal institutions in order to make them shatterproof. (Most fatalities in bombings are caused by shrapnel and glass projectiles.)
The victim of several anti-Semitic assaults, Rabbi Arnold Saunders of Higher Broughton and Higher Crumpsall Synagogue in Manchester describes the climate: "I was punched in the face on the way to the synagogue on a Saturday evening in Cheetham Hill; I had an egg thrown at me from a passing car; and someone I met at a petrol station got out of his car and said, 'We're going to cut your throat, Jew.' "
In Europe, keeping the peace between a growing, disgruntled and increasingly radicalized Muslim population and the Jewish community means making political concessions that often put Jews in the crosshairs.
We spent Shabbos in the 19th Arrondissement in Paris, which is the Jewish district. It is also, however, home to a heavy Muslim presence. In shul, we were alerted to avoid a central street in the 19th because there were riotous protestors who were saluting Palestinians. We've had these types of protests in the U.S., in New York, but the police presence is so heavy that any type of physical confrontation would be absolutely impossible. That is not the case in Paris.
According to Professor Shmuel Trigano, who teaches sociology of politics and religion at Paris-Nanterre University, "French society seems to have sacrificed the Jews in order not to alienate French Arabs and Muslims. A fatal choice has been made."
It was in this climate that Ilan Halimi was murdered in 2006 by a group with links to Muslim radicals. Ruth Halimi, Ilan's mother, told me how her son was kidnapped and tortured because "Jews are rich." It was heartbreaking to hear how law enforcement initially refused to characterize the murder as an anti-Semitic incident. French police continued to insist that Ilan had not been targeted because he was Jewish.
According to Trigano, this kind of denial began several years ago. After 450 attacks in 2000 and 2001 and a "complete blackout by the media, political authorities and Jewish institutions ….were asked by the socialist government not to 'add fuel to the fire.' When French Jews tried to alert public opinion and ask for help, they were rudely rebuffed, charged with provocation and racism."
Richard Odier, the Simon Wiesenthal Center's Secretary-General for France, predicts that France will be "Juden-free" within a period of 10-15 years.
France's chief rabbi, Joseph Sitruk, has urged Jews not to wear yarmulkes on the street because "in the current climate, there is no point waving a red flag in public places," and he says he does not want young people "isolated in the metro or on suburban trains to risk becoming a target for aggressors."
But the reality of France's future was portrayed most vividly in the Ashkenazi shul where I spoke Shabbos morning: Where were the young couples with children? I was told they leave as soon as they can. The younger generation doesn't see a viable future for Jews in France. Repeatedly we were asked if anything could be done to open the U.S. to immigration by French Jews.

Our houses are an funding so, in relation to property value, the query 'how a lot is my house price?' is without doubt one of the most ceaselessly asked. Installing a ventilating fan in your bathtub does extra than simply remove fogged-up windows, steamy mirrors and rancid odors. It also helps stop moisture-associated issues, resembling the growth of mildew and mildew, that can be costly to take away and lead to well being issues. Keep away from all of that with this inexpensive upgrades. Here, This Previous House general contractor Tom Silva exhibits the proper option to install a shower vent fan.

Whether winter is coming otherwise you're considering projects in one other season, some home enhancements are more pressing than others '"saving you cash instantly or stopping devastating injury. Generally it solely takes ten minutes or much less to make simple changes around the home that enhance your residing house. An extension can add extra space to your property by either expanding a room or adding moer. Normally individuals graph nominal house costs, but it's also necessary to look at prices in actual phrases (inflation adjusted). Case-Shiller and others report nominal home costs.

text: Morgan has one last consistent mispronunciation, which I should record before it goes away. It's an odd one -- every instance of the sound cluster "ula" becomes "lia". So "formlia", "ambliance", "Bunniclia". (She enjoyed the first Bunnicula book very much, and we started the second but she got distracted by other things. We'll get back to it eventually.)

Many years after the great flood the descendants of Noah built the great city of Babel with a great tower, claiming access to heaven, in order to make a great name for themselves. What humans create, build and achieve is still the pride of humans. Genesis 11:1-9.
Much of the landscape of world history is shaped by the achievement of human ideas causing both good and evil, progress and decline. Human cultures and civilizations exhibit a mixture of both beauty and ugliness, because all humans are a mixture of the noble and dishonorable.
Displeased with the vain human imagination that humans could build a gateway to God with their ideas and bricks, God confused their language so they would disperse into many different cultures. Thousands of years later, Paul an apostle of Jesus, preached that God's action blessed the human race as seekers of God. Acts 17:22-34.
The next chapter in Genesis makes it clear that God's plan is to bless the entire human race, introducing us to Abram, later called Abraham. Abraham left the
confusion of idolatry to serve the one true God who called him to greatness, promising to give him a great name and a descendant through God would bless all nations. Genesis 12:1-3, Joshua 24:2-3,14-15 and Hebrews 11:8-16.
Therefore, in the call of Abraham God reveals his own mission to bless; and he included Abraham and his descendants in his mission. God raised the nation of Israel from Abraham's descendants. Through Israel God continued to reveal his word and expand an understanding of his mission and their mission to bless all. God himself would be the source of his own blessing through the Messiah, the promised descendant of Abraham and King David, who is God's own eternal Son, chosen to also be the human King. The name of Abraham's promised descendant is Jesus. Psalm 67, Isaiah 9:1-7, Isaiah 11:1-10, Isaiah 42:1-9, Isaiah 61:1-11, Matthew 1 and Luke 1:26-38.
Jesus took up the mission of his heavenly Father, God, through proclaiming and manifesting the coming blessings of God's kingdom, with the Father's will being done on earth as it is in heaven. Jesus called disciples to teach, train and send them on the same mission of his Father and himself. Matthew 28:16-20; Luke 11:1-20 and Acts 1:1-11.
The notable disciple, the Apostle Peter, preached that Jesus is the Messiah. (Messiah and Christ both mean "the anointed one" and both refer to God's promised eternal ruler of all nations, the King of the Jews). Jesus fulfilled the promises of Israel's prophets; the promises restoring the fortunes of God's rule on earth. King Jesus, who ascended to God's throne in heaven after his resurrection, brings the blessings of forgiveness, new life and times of refreshing from his presence; first to own his people and ultimately to all nations. By his rule and his own returned appearance to the whole earth, Jesus will complete the restoration of all things in accordance with all God purposed and promised to bless all nations through Abraham's descendant. Jeremiah 29:4-14 and Acts 3:17-26.
God's calling and promise of blessing is for you and your children too. You can become one of Abraham's children through your faith in his descendant Jesus as our Messiah. Jesus forgives everyone who turns from wicked ways to him. For you the blessing starts with your conversion to Jesus for the forgiveness of yours sins. The Apostle Paul assured a gathering of many new Christians who came from a pagan heritage, that they became children of Abraham and God through their faith in Jesus, when they were baptized into Christ. Baptism, which is immersion in water in the name of Jesus, is the means of conversion that Jesus himself commanded for making all his disciples. Baptism also meaningfully symbolizes the blessings every new disciple receives from Christ, including the new life by which every disciple fulfills God's calling to bless and be blessed. Acts 2:36-41, Acts 3:25-26, Galatians 3:8-9,26-29 and 1 Peter 3:8-9.
I started the New Year 2015 reminding our congregation that as believers in Jesus their King, they are called to his Father's mission to bless and be blessed. I also invite you to live to bless and be blessed.

"All systems go" for 151 new trainees at the Lufthansa Technik Group
Choice of 15 professions and courses of study
At the traditional start of the German training year 151 young people started either traditional or dual-study training programs with the Lufthansa Technik Group. The selection process for 2018 is already underway at www.be-lufthansa.com/technik. All told, Lufthansa Technik in Germany will now be home to 569 young people on their way to professions in technical aircraft services or aircraft logistics.
76 of the new trainees are beginning programs in Hamburg, 44 in Frankfurt, 16 in Arnstadt, 11 in Alzey and four in Munich. Applicants were able to choose between 15 different professions and courses of study.
The range of programs for electronics technicians was expanded once again. In Hamburg, 15 trainees have begun a program to become electronics technicians for devices and systems; they will go on to work in specialized workshops. 18 aircraft electronics specialists are being prepared in Hamburg and Frankfurt for work on aircraft in hangars.
95 young people will begin their training directly at Lufthansa Technik and another 11 will be starting at Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey, the successful Lufthansa Technik Group company that specializes in overhauling smaller jet and propeller engines. With this step, Lufthansa Technik AERO Alzey is expanding its training capacity (it now has a total of 31 training slots) to safeguard the company's strong growth over the long term with motivated, expert specialists.
Lufthansa Technik Logistik Services (LTLS) has 25 new trainees for the future-oriented profession of warehouse logistics specialist as well as four people training to become specialists for forwarding and logistics services. This is likewise an increase in the company's training commitment, and one that reflects the rapid development of supply networks for customers all over the world.

Traveling Psychology Careers
While the traditional image of a psychologist may be someone stuck behind a desk all day seeing patient after patient, in reality, many psychology careers offer frequent travel. In many cases, a patient doesn't visit a psychologist, the psychologist goes to visit the patient. Some psychologists even travel overseas.
Military Psychologist
A military psychologist may be assigned to a battalion in a war zone such as Iraq, where she will be available to help enlisted soldiers as well as commanders. Her duties are varied, including screening, evaluation and soldier education. While deployment stress is a common issue, she may also encounter serious mental illnesses such as depression and schizophrenia, and she conducts therapy when appropriate.
Sports Psychologist
A sports psychologist might work for a team, traveling to games throughout the country, or she might work for an Olympic athlete, traveling to foreign countries where this athlete competes. A sports psychologist observes an athlete's past and current behaviors to coach him and help him overcome obstacles blocking him from reaching his full potential. Techniques might include positive visualization, keeping a mood diary before games or examining negative thought patterns.
Environmental Psychologist
An environmental psychologist resolves conflicts arising when people interact with the world around them. She may work as a consultant for various companies, re-engineering work stations to maximize productivity, or she may work for governments or nonprofit groups, studying how poverty affects urban school children or how to best break the news to a community that a new water treatment plant is opening in its backyard.
Forensic Psychologist
A forensic psychologist often visits prisons in her state or even nationwide. Her job would typically include evaluating prisoners awaiting trail, assessing issues such as their competency to stand trial and their mental capacity. While visiting an inmate in prison, she completes a comprehensive psychological assessment including diagnoses, treatment recommendations and an estimate of how likely the inmate is to reoffend. She would then travel to various county courts in which inmates are being tried to present her findings.
2016 Salary Information for Psychologists
Psychologists earned a median annual salary of $75,710 in 2016, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. On the low end, psychologists earned a 25th percentile salary of $56,390, meaning 75 percent earned more than this amount. The 75th percentile salary is $97,780, meaning 25 percent earn more. In 2016, 166,600 people were employed in the U.S. as psychologists.

It's no secret that sistas love rocking every hairstyle under the sun. But while our ever-changing tresses allow us to rock versatile 'dos, weaves, chemical processing and too-tight hairstyles are also causing premature hair loss at alarming rates.
A recent study found that permanent hair loss among Black women is directly the result of braids and weaves that are done improperly. But are there any other reasons why you could be noticing more hair in your comb than usual?
We sat down with Dr. Kari Williams, owner of Mahogany Revolution Salon and an expert in the study of hair and scalp disorders, to discover key causes of hair loss and breakage.
