Afros are popular hairstyles for both men and women. If you have curly enough hair, all you need is a little patience and some good hair care knowledge to grow the afro you've always wanted. There are lots of things that can damage your hair, so it's very important to be vigilant about taking good care of your hair if you want to rock this look.
Part 1 of 3:
Protecting Your Hair from Damage
1Use the right comb. Traditional combs and brushes will damage your curly hair, making it frizzier. Instead of these, use a wide-tooth comb, afro pick, or even your fingers to comb your hair.[1]
- Don't comb more than necessary! Just use your comb, pick, or fingers to get rid of any tangles.
- If you have a lot of tangles, try buying a detangling spray specifically designed for African American hair. This will make combing much easier and more pleasant.[2]
2Avoid washing too often. Very curly hair tends to be prone to dryness, which means you do not have to wash it as often as you would if you had oily hair. Try to shampoo your hair three times per week (or even less if you can without it becoming oily) to prevent over-drying.[3]
- While you should avoid over-washing, it is important to wash often enough to keep your hair and scalp clean. The exact frequency that is right for you will depend on your hair type and the amount of oil in our hair and scalp.
- Be careful about what kind of shampoo you use, as many common ingredients can can breakage. Try to avoid shampoo that contains sulfates, polysorbates, isopropyl alcohol, formaldehyde, hydrolyzed collagen, parabens, propylene glycol, or polyethylene glycol.[4]
3Deep condition. After you wash your hair, you should apply a deep conditioner to help keep your hair soft and healthy. You will need to leave the deep conditioner in your hair for an extended period of time before rinsing to ensure that it penetrates the hair shafts.
- If you are buying a deep conditioner at the store, look for one that contains ingredients like cationic surfactants, cationic polymers, emollients, oils, and silicones.[5]
- You can also make your own deep conditioner. You can find tons of different recipes online, but common ingredients include mayonnaise, avocado, aloe vera, shea butter, glycerin, coconut oil, argan oil, olive oil, jojoba oil, eggs, and honey.[6]
- Try not to massage the deep conditioner into your scalp. This can cause flakes.
- For the best results, you should cover your hair with a plastic cap while it is wet and apply heat to your hair while the deep conditioner is in. You can do this by sitting under a blow dryer hood for 20-30 minutes or by wrapping your hair in a hot, damp towel for up to two hours. If you use the towel method, you will need to remove the towel and run it under hot water frequently to keep it hot. If you don't apply any heat, you should let the deep conditioner sit on your hair for much longer.
4Moisturize your hair. Moisturizing is absolutely essential to maintain a health afro. There are tons of moisturizing products out there for African American hair, so you may have to do some experimenting to find the best ones for you.[7]
- Water adds moisture to hair, but only if your hair can absorb it. Try using an oil that penetrates the hair, such as coconut oil, avocado oil, or olive oil, on damp hair to help your hair hold on to that water.
- When styling your hair, finish it with a sealing cream or oil that will lock in moisture. Castor oil, shea butter, grapeseed, and jojoba oil are all good choices.
5Avoid over-styling. If you feel like your hair just does not grow, the problem may be that you are over-styling it, causing it to break. Try being gentler on your hair by avoiding harsh treatments as much as possible.[8]
- Chemical treatments like coloring and relaxing can cause your hair to break, which means it will not grow as fast, so avoid these if you are trying to grow your hair out.
- Heat treatments like flat irons, curling irons, and blow dryers can be just as damaging, so use them as little as possible.
6Be careful with protective hairstyles. Many people choose to wear their hair in protective styles like braids or twists while they are trying to grow an afro and once their afro is grown to the desired length. These can be beneficial because they protect the ends of the hair from damage. They also offer a convenient way to style your hair when it is an awkward length. It is, however, possible to damage to your hair with these styles, so be careful.[9]
- Make sure your hair is not braided or twisted too tightly. If it is painful for your scalp at all, it is probably damaging your hair as well.
- Don't leave the protective style in for longer than four weeks at a time. It's better if you can take it out even sooner.[10]
- Continue moisturizing your hair on a daily basis even if it's braided.
Part 2 of 3:
Growing Your Hair Out
1Take care of yourself. Your hair will grow faster and be stronger if you are healthy. Start from the inside out to grow long, healthy hair.[11]
- Foods that are rich in protein, iron, biotin, and zinc are known to promote hair growth.[12] Vitamins A and B are also essential for healthy hair.[13] Try to incorporate more of these nutrients into your balanced diet.
- Staying hydrated is also very important. If your body doesn't have enough water, your hair will become drier and more brittle.
2Be patient. It may take many months for your hair to grow long enough for you to have a true afro, so you need to wait it out. Hair typically grows about 1/2 inch each month, but this can vary from person to person.[14]
- The curlier your hair, the longer it will take to grow out your afro. Don't give up because you will have the hairstyle you want eventually!
- Everyone's hair grows in natural cycles, so there are times (typically a few weeks out of every several years) when growth is dormant. There is nothing you can do to make your hair grow during a dormant period, so just be patient and know that it won't last long.[15]
3Get a trim. Trimming your hair won't make it grow any faster, but it will keep it looking neat and tame. If you see that the ends of your hair are beginning to show signs of damage, it's time for a trim, no matter how bad you want that length!
- While hair care products may help prevent new split ends from forming, nothing can repair existing split ends. They must be cut off.[16]
4Enjoy your new look. Once you have the afro you've always wanted, enjoy it! If you want to keep it looking great, remember to keep taking care of your hair the same way you did when you were growing it. It's still just as important to keep your hair nourished, moisturized, and free from damage.Advertisement
Part 3 of 3:
Styling Your Afro
1Go natural. Once you've washed and moisturized your afro, you don't need to do much more to style it. Avoid styling products and blow dryers as much as possible.[17]
- Prevent frizz by always wrapping your hair in a silk scarf before bed. This will help ensure that your afro keeps looking good without the need for heat styling or additional products.[18]
2Comb your afro. If you want a fuller afro, you should comb it after applying your moisturizer. This will help detangle your curls and make your afro nice and full. Be sure to use a wide-toothed comb or an afro pick instead of an ordinary hair comb.[19]
- Be very gentle while combing. Work in small sections and run the comb from the root of the hair to the ends.
- Combing every day is not a necessity, especially if you have a shorter afro. Avoid combing more than you need to in order to get your desired volume, as over-combing will just cause damage.
3Add some adornments. If you're a woman, consider adding some extra style to your afro with adornments like clip-in flowers, headbands, or scarves. You can use simple accessories or bold ones, depending on your own personal style.
4Consider a faux hawk. If you want to switch up your look, a faux hawk can make your afro look extra stylish. This works especially well with medium-length afros.
- Use a hair gel or similar product to slick back the sides of your afro, leaving the top free.
- You can also get cornrows on both sides of your head, leaving just the top of your afro loose.
Community Q&A
QuestionIf I wash my hair everyday, what will happen?Community AnswerYou can actually damage your hair by washing it everyday. Try washing it only a few days in a week and see the results.
QuestionWill applying mayo to my hair help soften it?Community AnswerIt will, but only if you leave it in for 15-20 minutes. The oils in mayonnaise can help protect your hair much like shampoo, but it may also make it greasy. Leave the mayo in once a week, then rinse it out thoroughly after 20 minutes.
QuestionWhat can I do if my hair is unevenly shaped?Community AnswerAsk a barber to trim it to the length that will make it look even.
QuestionMy hair is growing badly and I'm becoming a Rasta. Any tips to encourage growth?Community AnswerJust give loving attention to it. Clean and condition it naturally, and it will heal and grow in.
QuestionHow many days until I should wash my hair again?Community AnswerYou should wash your hair weekly or bi-weekly. This is because you don't want to damage your hair or strip the natural oils from your hair. But if you think that your hair is dirty, you should definitely wash it.
QuestionI haven't been taking care of my hair so it stopped growing. Am I forced to start over?MrsLevitan BossCommunity AnswerIt's probably experiencing breakage. You should try to trim your damaged ends, and start your regimen again.
QuestionWill this method help my hair?Community AnswerThere are multiple factors that come into play, such as your hair type, lifestyle, what you do to your hair (coloring, heat or any other hair treatments), so your personal results may vary. The only way you can really find the result for yourself is through lots of trial & error. You'll have to "listen" to your hair in what it likes and doesn't. This method may benefit you or you may have to make adjustments to see how your hair will thrive.
QuestionWhy isn't my afro getting bigger?Community AnswerPatience is key to the perfect afro. It may take a while, but your patience will be rewarded.
QuestionIs it better to comb or use a pick on African American hair?Community AnswerIf you want a voluminous or poofy afro look, pick out your hair until you achieve the wanted result. For definition, put a cream or liquid product (water/conditioner/moisturizer/etc.) in your hair and comb it through.
QuestionIf I constantly cut my sides, will my top not grow afro hair?Community AnswerYour top may still grow, but your sides won't grow as you hoped they would. Afros are great to grow for men when the hair is all the same length.
Does applying yogurt to my hair makes it grow faster?
I don't have a lot of experience taking care of my hair. I want to try to grow an afro from scratch. Can you give me some tips and recommend some good hair products for me?
How do I grow an Afro?
- Afros will only work on certain hair types. If your hair isn't curly enough, you will not be able to grow an afro naturally.Thanks!
About This Article
If you have African American hair, you can grow an Afro with a little patience and some good hair care knowledge. Traditional combs and brushes can damage curly hair, so use a wide-tooth comb, afro pick, or even your finger to get rid of tangles. Limit shampooing to 3 times a week to prevent over-drying, and use a deep conditioner after every washing to keep your hair soft and healthy. To maintain a healthy afro, you'll also need to moisturize your hair, so find a product that penetrates the hair and holds water in, like coconut oil, avocado oil, or olive oil. While it might seem counterintuitive, make sure to get regular trims while growing your hair out. Trims won't make your hair grow faster, but they will keep it looking neat and healthy. You'll also want to eat healthy by consuming foods rich in protein, iron, and zinc, which can promote hair growth. To learn how to style your afro, keep reading!

Boys and girls basketball double-header at Goucher College could be the start of an annual showcase for neighboring schools (VIDEO HERE!!)
Loch Raven High athletic director Mike McEwan and his Towson counterpart, Justin Nash, are hoping the first Battle of the Beltway turns into something big.
If the inaugural doubleheader featuring the boys and girls basketball teams from the AD's neighboring Baltimore County public schools squaring off against each other on the court at Goucher College is any indication, it could happen.
After all, McEwan said that about 600 tickets were sold for the games that took on a special meaning by being staged at a neutral site on the Gophers' floor, which is halfway between the schools.
He came up with the idea over the summer after noting that the only meeting this season between the rivals would be close to the holidays, lending a festive flair to the showdown.
Moreover, McEwan knew that because Goucher men's basketball coach Tom Rose's daughter, Julie, plays for the Raiders, he had a chance to secure the gym at a time when some alums would be home from college.
When Rose brought up the plan to Nash, both agreed it was worth a try.
"I was really excited when Mike called with the idea about playing at Goucher," Nash said. "There was no hesitation from me….I immediately said yes. I knew the kids would be all for it. We played field hockey and soccer at Goucher before, and our kids had a great time playing in front of a large crowd. Goucher is a hidden gem and we are thankful for the opportunity. We look forward to making this a tradition with our two programs."
The players and coaches were also buying in to competing in the special event.
"My girls compete against them in soccer, basketball and lacrosse, so the game is a very big deal," Towson girls coach Rebecca Cahall said. "It's a very cool thing."
Loch Raven girls coach Jerome Ragsdale said that "the kids loved it. They were very excited and a little nervous" about playing in front of a big crowd."
Unfortunately for the Raiders, it was an especially frustrating night for them because the Generals swept both games.
The Towson girls prevailed, 35-30, in the opener before the boys walloped Loch Raven, 77-38.
The Towson girls (2-1) jumped out to a 10-2 lead early after senior guard Kayla Sullivan converted four of six free throw attempts after she was fouled from beyond the arc on successive plays.
Senior guard Audra Lucas followed with a jumper and a layup before senior guard Daija Fitchett scored from the paint on an assist from Sullivan,
The Raiders countered with a 6-0 run on two free throws and a fast break finish by sophomore guard/forward Rose and two free throws by senior guard Kwanshae Stevenson.
However, Towson gradually pulled away to post a 23-15 halftime lead before opening the third quarter on a 5-0 run on two buckets and a free throw by Fitchett.
The Generals' biggest lead was 15 points, although Loch Raven fought back from there to make a game of it.
The Raiders (3-4) were within six points of tying the game until Towson junior guard Erin Steinberg buried a clutch three-pointer with just under four minutes remaining in regulation to give her team just enough breathing room to hold on down the stretch, even though a three-pointer by Loch Raven junior point guard Mikayla Kemp cut the lead back to six points.
"Once we got under four minutes (remaining), I told the girls to just slow it down," Towson coach Rebecca Cahall said. "We just needed to let the clock run."
Ragsdale said that Towson played a nice floor game "and handled our pressure really well. They were the better team tonight."
Sullivan said that Towson was ready to go after having two weeks to prepare after not having played a game since Dec. 5.
"It's a big matchup," she added about the rivalry. "We played them in summer league, and it was a high-intensity game. We were ready to play a game and we gave our all on the court."
The boys game was lopsided from the get-go, as Towson built a 27-11 lead midway through the opening period and kept exerting pressure.
"We had no idea what to expect," said senior forward Ben Tribbe, whose throw-down in the third quarter was his first ever in a game. "We hadn't seen any tape on them. We got a huge boost from the crowd tonight."
Junior forward Derrick Shoats also had several dunks for the Generals, who improved to 2-2 on the season while the Raiders fell to 1-6.
TOWSON: Daija Fitchett 11, Kayla Sullivan 5, Audra Lucas 6, Erin SteInberg 8, Anna Lucas 2, Bernadette Brzezinski 3. TOTALS: 11 10-15 35.
LOCH RAVEN: Kwanshae Stevenson 4, Julie Rose 14, Nadja Franklin 3, Kasey Jones 2, Tatum Joyce 2, Mikayla Kemp 3, Khamiya Davis 2. TOTALS: 9 11-22 30.
TOWSON: Derrick Shoats 16, Kaire Trotty 13, Hammond Dugan 8, Conner Brown 5, Ben Tribbe 4, Henry Weir 4, Tyriq Wilson 2, Amir Defino 2, Ian O'Malle 2, Nick Testoni 2, Ben Ducharme 2, Milo Fisher 2, Chris Dohony 1. TOTALS 29 14-21 77.
LOCH RAVEN: Deshawn Staten 8, Naon Thomas 8, Tariq Davis 7, Melvin Lucas 4, Damon Jones 4, Mehki Mitchell 3, Xzavia Smith 2, Antonio Coppola 1, Amando Laranang 1. TOTALS 10 16-23 38.

Astrid Andersen A/W '19
The boldness of the palette was another great take away—a sensuous blend of deep red, blue, and orange, among others, made their way down the catwalk on quilted jackets, hoodies and kimonos. Andersen also experimented with knitwear and some hand-painted details, but kept her focus on the brand's now-signature combo of lace and fur.
As a whole, the collection was another step in defining Astrid's bold vision for menswear—rooted in the past, but made for the future.

The Fresh Sugar lip treatments are hugely popular. Although I liked the ones I received way back when as the Sephora birthday gift, I couldn't get past how the matte tube felt. It made me cringe to the point where I couldn't get past the feeling to actually enjoy the balm inside. Now, the tubes seem to have changed a bit, and I found myself with this little mini set, a Sephora freebie from earlier this year.
I have two balms: Advanced Therapy (clear) and Rose, which is tinted pink. I've used the clear one more and I really like it. It is so soft, and it smells like lemons! The rose one gifts a nice flush to the lips and is also very conditioning. The Advanced Therapy formula is really great for my lips, which are usually dry. I also have the bad habit of licking my lips, and I know this doesn't help that cause!
I usually use LUSH Bubblegum lip scrub, but I like this lip polish as well. It smells like brown sugar, and instead of being strictly scrub, it is also very soft and conditioning. If you like the ELF lip scrub, this is way more conditioning than that product is; it is also more gentle.
The Sugar Shine Lip Treatment is exactly what it sounds like: it provides high shine and conditioning to the lips. I don't think I would purchase this in the full size. While it's nice, I just don't find it mind blowing.
The big winner in this bunch is the Advanced Therapy balm. It is easy to use, smells fantastic, and makes my lips feel soft. Even if my lips are cracked and painful, this conditions them right away. It's $25, which is a lot for a balm, but it is way better than the Dior Creme de Rose balm in my humble opinion, which is a couple dollars more. I will probably purchase a full size Advanced Therapy soon!

Mangaldas Nathubhai led the Bombay welcoming committee for the Prince's tour, and invited the Prince to attend his son's wedding. William Howard Russell was struck by the colourful scene, the overpowering scent of flowers and the garlands, and noted that the Prince was 'festooned with the choicest'. This painting shows the marriage of the crowned Krishna, eighth avatar of Vishnu, and the veiled Rukmini, conducted by moon and starlight in a palace courtyard.

Andrew Swaffer from Urdi (URDI is the Craft distributors in Australia and New Zealand.) provided me with a sample of their Performance range kit to trial. The Craft Kit was the first to arrive and received woos of admiration from the missus. The Jersey was a very lightweight slick fabric that was a lovely fit. This was a race cut fit, and the mesh under the arms to provide ventilation was a nice touch. The chamois was a little firmer than a few of the others, but there was nothing wrong with that, just a different style. All the padding was in the right place.
I received some positive feedback from a few locals about the quality of the Craft kit and the service they offer. In fact, I was at one of our local haunts a few weeks back (Bici espresso in Hutt Street), and was introduced to the Pastry Chef (great cakes by the way) who had just come back from a ride. Anyways, they were just about to place an order for some new Craft kit and were highly complimentary. (Apparently mix 102.3 are running a best bakery competition, so get online and put your vote in for Bici)
The Craft Custom Bike Collection has been developed over two decades in close collaboration with several professional cycling teams, and is widely acknowledged to be one of the highest quality custom ranges available.
It has been tested thoroughly in the front of the professional peloton, in the 21 hairpin bends to Alpe d'Huez, and in rain and snow on the cobbled streets between Paris and Roubaix.
CRAFT have 3 levels of kit, starting at the Elite range, which is developed hand-in-hand with Tour-standard riders such as the ORICA GREENEDGE team, Performance and
ELITE CRAFT's finest collection is designed for top performance and embodies attention to detail, superb fit, low weight, unparalleled aerodynamics and maximum moisture transportation. USER PROFILE This collection is for those who aim for the podium, or for those who demand nothing but the best.
PERFORMANCE Excellent, well-designed collection made of soft and flexible polyester fabrics for ease of movement and advanced moisture transportation. USER PROFILE Performance training embraces dedicated athletes who live the sport and train several times per week.

The Complete Tightwad Gazette, by Amy Dacyczyn. I love this book! The books are based on a newsletter that ran from about1991-96. Most of the material from the newsletters are now compiled in The Complete Tightwad Gazette.
When I was a newlywed, I studied these books (back when this book was two smaller books and an ongoing newsletter subscription). It gave a lot of ideas about how to save money on groceries when my husband and I were poor college students. I soon found that her style of purchasing groceries nicely adapted to a food storage-based lifestyle.
Here are the specific articles I found useful regarding food storage:
The price book, p. 33. Often grocery store rock-bottom sale prices are lower than wholesale prices. When the rock-bottom sale occurred, Amy would stock up on the sale item. Keeping a notebook that recorded the lowest price helped her determine what a good sale price is. (Recent food price inflation is making it difficult to determine current rock bottom prices, but that's a topic for another post.)
How to buy food in bulk, p. 35. Instead of buying the food needed for one week as most people do, she stocks up on non-perishable sale items. She buys in quantities to get her through to the next sale or until itâs convenient to get to the store again.
The pantry principle, p. 474. âThe basic premise is that you stockpile your pantry (and/or kitchen, freezer, basement, closet, and/or the space under your bed) with food purchased at the absolute lowest possible price. The sole purpose of grocery shopping becomes replenishing your pantry, not buying specific ingredients to prepare specific meals. This is a subtle but important distinction.â
The Dacyczyn family did not set out to buy a yearâs supply of food, but the ideas are easy enough to adapt to a Mormon idea of food storage. As a newlywed, I bulk bought according to my storage space and moving plans. (We tried to time our purchases to avoid moving extra food.) As our family and our storage space grew, I tried to get more specific about getting a yearâs supply of various grocery items.
By using this method, you can start to accumulate food storage without requiring extra money in the budget. The rock bottom prices of grocery staples are routinely half off the everyday price. Buying at those prices as much as possible creates savings that you can use to start to accumulate stored food.

Tell your senators to stand up against big money
Super PACs have already poured more than $500 million into this year's election. It's clear -- we need to stand up against big money in our democracy.
Right now, the Senate is considering a bill to give regular Americans a more powerful voice in our elections. Remind your senators that they work for you, not just Super PACs and mega-donors.

The Native American Contractors Association (NACA), along with several other NACA Members, traveled to the National 8(a) Annual Conference in Orlando on February 9-10, 2016. The Conference brought together important speakers, topics, and several SBA 8(a) Business Development Program participants from around the country. National 8(a) President, Ron Perry, took time during the Conference to meet with NACA Executive Director, Mike Anderson, and other NACA Members to discuss the importance of Native 8(a) Contractors and how NACA and National 8(a) can work together in the future. The conference proved to be a valuable experience as it provided opportunities for NACA to advocate on important issues with federal agencies and build a growing partnership with National 8(a).
Highlights from the Conference:
- Kenyatta Wesley, Acting Director, Department of Defense (DOD) Office of Small Business Programs, provided insight into several 8(a) issues affecting NACA's members.
- NACA Policy Priority Relevance: NACA will continue to engage with his office on the issues its Members face daily. One of those issues is the loss of contracts set aside to 8(a), which Mr. Wesley explained from a DOD/taxpayer perspective. NACA will be working with Mr. Wesley's office to provide education on the impact this has to Native Contracting, that depends largely on 8(a) set asides, and the adverse impacts when those contracts are bundled.
- NACA Policy Priority Relevance: The Dynalantic vs. US Department of Defense issue was raised during a one-on-one discussion with Mr. Wesley. NACA asked that the modeling and simulation NAICS be made available as an 8(a) set aside for small businesses per the settlement agreement. Kenyatta acknowledged that he had responded "no" to NACA's formal request, and stated the DOD was working with SBA on resolving this. NACA will be following up with the Small Business Administration (SBA) on this issue.
- NACA Advocacy in Action: During the General Session, NACA acknowledged and thanked Mr. Kenyatta for DOD's efforts in the Rothe vs. Department of Defense et al case which challenges the constitutionality of the 8(a) program. NACA informed the audience that it had filed an Amicus Brief, joining with several Native Associations and Tribal Nations, to support DOD's position. NACA's announcement was met with a round of applause from the audience.
- NACA leadership met with Jackie Robinson-Burnette, Associate Administrator at SBA, responsible for oversight of the 8(a) program.
- NACA Policy Priority: Ms. Robinson-Brunette directly addressed one of NACA's policy priorities during her meeting with the NACA Executive Director. She discussed SBA benefits reporting, which is listed as a Regulatory Policy Priority on NACA's website. Ms. Robinson-Burnette was receptive to the concerns NACA wanted to bring forward. NACA will be monitoring this Policy Priority closely, anticipating the release of the new form.
- NACA Advocacy in Action: Ms. Robinson-Burnette also provided an update on the SBA program, highlighting attempts to improve processes that have historically taken extensive time to complete — like 8(a) applications and annual reports. Her focus is on customer service – which the General Session loudly applauded.
- NACA Advocacy in Action: Ms. Robinson-Burnette will participate in a Roundtable discussion at the NACA Outreach Summit, March 9-10.
NACA will be attending the National 8a Conference again in June at Anchorage.

Arjun Kapoor and his Half Girlfriend director Mohit Suri are not fighting. And rumours that the two are, has baffled and angered them.

The spiritual successor to Theme Hospital is coming to PS4, Xbox One, and Switch later this year.
The console releases will be "fully rebuilt for console gaming" according to its publisher, SEGA, and will include both Bigfoot and Pebberley Island expansions.
Two Point Hospital tasks players with managing a hospital, but adds a heavy dose of comedy to its gameplay – with such diseases as light-headedness, premature mummification, and cubism.
Developer Two Point Studios previously released the title on PC in 2018. The studio was founded by veterans of Bullfrog Productions; the developer of sim genre classics like Theme Park, Dungeon Keeper, and Theme Hospital.
Price points or a specific release date are yet to be confirmed.

The holidays were a quiet end to a busy year for mobile finance, but the first couple weeks of 2015 have already seen activity bounce back. One key trend – integrating built-in smartphone hardware into mobile finance apps – seems set to pick up where it left off.
The most recent example is Fidelity's new Stocks Nearby tool, which uses an iPhone's location services to identify the closest public company headquarters. When launched, a map shows the user's current location and provides basic price and day change information for companies based in the vicinity. Tapping one of the listed stocks opens the detailed quote for that security for further research.
Enabling Smart Investment Decisions
Fidelity's press release announcing Stocks Nearby cites the investment principle to "buy what you know." In this case, that means local businesses that are potentially more relevant to investors' lives. While the tool is limited in scope (for instance, not letting users search other locations), it's nice to see some creativity in bringing smartphone capabilities (e.g., geolocation) into the research process.
Some reactions to the new tool have been skeptical, worrying that it encourages clients to buy stocks on a whim with insufficient knowledge of the company. However, the tool isn't designed to bring clients immediately to the trading ticket. Instead, the full quote includes data, charts and research about the company, with links to add to a watchlist and set an alert in addition to trade. This positions Stocks Nearby as just the first step of the research process, treating it the same as any other source of an investment idea.
In the past, we've made similar points about tools like TD Ameritrade's SnapStock, which scans bar codes and returns the name and symbol for the company that makes the product. It's important that the firm send a strong message to clients that they should use all the tools at their disposal to best meet their long-term investment goals. Fidelity's latest addition acknowledges one small way mobile technology is uniquely suited to a more engaging investment experience.

He has 25+ years experience as a programmer and QA leader, and holds several Microsoft certifications. our editorial process Facebook Twitter Scott Orgera Updated November 19, 2019 Many websites are offered in more than one language, and modifying the default language in which they display can sometimes be achieved with a simple browser setting. In Google Chrome, you're given the ability to specify these languages in order of preference. Before a web page is rendered, Chrome will check to see if it supports your preferred languages in the order in which you list them. If it turns out that the page is available in one of these languages, it will be displayed as such. You can also do this with Firefox, Opera, and Internet Explorer. Change Chrome's Default Languages Modifying this internal language list can be done in just a couple minutes: Choose Chrome's main menu button from the top right corner of the program. It's the one represented by three stacked dots. Pick Settings from the menu. Lifewire You can always jump straight to Settings by entering the chrome://settings/ URL in the navigation box. Scroll down and choose Advanced at the very bottom of that page to open some more settings below it. Lifewire Find the Languages section and then select Language to pull down a new menu. Lifewire You should see at least one language but possibly more, such as English (United States) and English, listed in preference order. One will be chosen as the default language with a message that says Google Chrome is displayed in this language. To choose another language, select Add languages. Lifewire Search or scroll through the list to find the new languages you want to add to Chrome. Put a check in the box next to one or more, and then hit ADD. Lifewire With the new languages now at the bottom of the list, use the menu button to the right of them to adjust their position in the list. Lifewire You can also use that menu button to delete languages, to display Google Chrome in that particular language, or to have Chrome automatically offer to translate pages to that language. Language settings are saved automatically as you make changes to them, so you can now exit Chrome's settings or shut down the browser. Be sure to update Google Chrome if these steps don't make sense; you might have an outdated version of the browser. The mobile Chrome app can translate pages, too, but there isn't fine control over the language selection like you have with the desktop program. From the mobile app, open the settings from the menu button and then go to Content Settings > Google Translate to enable the option for Chrome to auto-translate pages written in other languages.

I was watching the Rachel Maddow show* and they were mocking some guy for saying that government projects don't create jobs but rather just creates work. Rachel and her guest could not believe it and didn't seem to understand his logic (are they really incapable of grasping this?). To me, what Michael Steele said makes perfect sense.
I picked this up off a related thread, and I think it provides some valuable insight:
One difference is that when you choose to buy something you support the business with your money. When the government chooses to buy something, they support the business with your money. They make the choice, not you. Another is that businesses get paid for a product or service, governments collect taxes. Government has to continue to collect more and more taxes to continue paying. Businesses increase products, prices, etc to continue paying and providing future benefits.
There was a House committe on small business jobs not long ago. Small businesses provide more jobs, make money, and pay taxes. I sincerely doubt most small business owners are rich. Some are truck drivers, some work from home, some have small store fronts. Many small businesses are moving towards bartering more, so they may not need your handout. The government may just have to learn to do without the taxes however. The underground economy may grow even if the US economy doesn't.
At least as far as educators the jobs will likely not go away, they will create future debts for those states. So expect the states to continue hitting up the tax payer for both salaries and benefits as well as retirement for the educators.Whether you see it or not the problem with government jobs is that they are paid for by the tax payer. So if the jobs stick around our taxes go up, up, up.
The only thought I would add here would be that the government does have a role in creating infrastructure for business and "life" to take place. IE roads.
However, I have also noticed that every time I speak out against over-taxation the protest is "what about roads, police, and fire-fighters?" Which is of course improper logic. I'm not talking about those things (which are mostly paid for locally-- not at the federal level). I am talking about maintaining Empire, and excesses at the federal level.
Don't think I like the republicans so much either. Those half-wits** blew through money like drunken sailors for eight years. Literally blowing it up on the desert sands. [sarcasm on] Oh, but now they're taking a stand against waste. Wouldn't want to spend it domestically. [sarcasm off]
In my opinion they have lost the moral high ground. Another party will have to take up their banner.
*I voraciously consume all sorts of media from both sides of the aisle. I think they are all bought up by the Powers that Be, the Bankers. Debate is an illusion. What is real is that a HUGE chunk of the net income/work/productivity of any given household/city/country is going into the pockets of people who do not work nor produce nor (in many cases) even invest money they have earned.
What I do love are independent sources. I am a huge fan of Ron Paul. I still have his 2008 presidential run sign out in front of my house. I don't plan on taking it down.
** I was going to say "ass-wits" or "jack-wipes" but that seemed bit non-sensical.
Jobs not Work

Kim Kardashian is a known celebrity and best known for her show "The Kardashians." What many don't know is her struggle with fertility. Many people are under the misconception that celebrities are given a life of complete comfort and ease, and that they face little to no struggle like the average Joe. Unfortunately, for Mrs. Kardashian that couldn't be further from the truth.
Kim Kardashian has struggled with fertility since before the birth of her first child North West. She has spent countless hours and money on doctors who helped her with her struggle to get pregnant.
While she wanted a family and struggled to get them she admits that at one point admitted that she was exhausted. All the tests, ultra-sounds and so forth just ware you out. Sometimes you just want to give up and say you don't want to keep trying anymore.
The celebrity even goes on to admit that she also went as far as trying to implant an embryo and that it failed. At one point she even went through a medical procedure on her uterus to help her out. With Kim going through these all too familiar issues it makes her feel more real to others out there going through the same issues.
So many women face issues with fertility and when a celebrity goes through something relatable and makes them feel more human, and more real. Typically when they are in the news it's all about their money, what new trend they're imitating and so forth. However, when one faces a real issue that effects everyone no matter what their social or financial standing, it hits home.
Women are able to empathize with her because it is so common and such a big issue.
Luckily, for this young celebrity and mother of two she has a great support system. Her sister Khloe Kardashian was there by her side when Kim revealed she was pregnant for the second time and was her confidant through her struggles. If she wasn't luckily enough for that her husband, singer Kanye West has been a constant support to her. Through it all he has encouraged her that everyone goes through these types of struggles, and that sometimes it will take a few times to get the job done and of course that trying is half the fun.

Author: BajoraI was in 8th grade social studies. The teacher put the tv on and didn't say a word and we all sat in silence. My dad told me when the first plane hit he thought it was a terrible accident. But then when the second plane hit he knew we were under attack. He was in Vietnam and saved all sorts or newspapers on this and he pinned bin ladens picture to his bulletin board with the word Morta across his face which means dead in Italian. I always remember that. And that was way before we killed him. He wanted him dead so bad and it drove him nuts. None of us will ever forget. I have a beautiful giant picture hanging in my house when you first walk in of the twin towers.

Author: VukasaJenna your father was responsible among other American and Israeli politicians for the inside planning of 9-11. Your family got to where it's at politically because of it's criminal activities.
Author: KajisidaIt's disgusting that this despicable panel of people can sit here and talk about terrorists on 9/11.
Author: MogrelTotally agree with Jenna. On Sept 11, 2001- we lost our innocence, our carefree life, and for me and many others, we lost our sense of safety. I saw the towers perish from my window- We had recently purchased this particular apt mainly due to the view of the WTC. All I kept thinking was all the lives that were in those buildings and were not able to get out. There isn't a day that goes by I don't think about that dreadful day and all the wonderful people that not only lost their lives on that day but all those first responders that passed away and those that also passed due to coming down with cancer due to inhaling the asbestos. What a tragedy. I believe that it is something that we as a nation should never forget. Please honor all who lost their lives due to this tragic terrorist attack.
Author: Shakazil17 years on and still nobody has yet been brought to justice. Everyone knows it was an INSIDE JOB! That Bush girl reminds me of Samantha Fox.

Author: GogrelNOONE KNOWS WHO DID IT, IF AT ALL, BUT ONLY AN UNENLIGHTENED FOOL WOULD DISMISS CRUCIAL EVIDENCE. A WISE MAN /JUDGE WOULD LOOK AT ALL EVIDENCE UNBIASLEY FIRST. THERE IS ALARMING EVIDENCE ON MULTIPLE FRONTS ON SEPT 11th ATTACKS AS WELL.
Author: KazrashoIt's funny how you yanks keep saying never forget 9/11. The world can never forget 9/11 because you're still killing thousands of people to this day over it. Americans are ok with killing everyone under the sun, but they're not ok with dealing with the consequences of their flawed foreign policy. Remember 9/11 by remembering the victims of the response to 9/11.

Author: MurrI was 7 years old on 9/11. I grew up in the Chicago suburbs and remember a very weird day at school. It was beautiful outside, but we had indoor recess. Teachers were acting weird and some kids had their parents pick them up. On the bus on the way home, a girl told me there was a plane crash in New York. This girl often made up stories often, so I wrote it off. My then 5 year old sister came home to my mom shaken up and my then 2 year old sister napping upstairs. We asked what was wrong, and to this day I think she explained it perfectly to two young children. We were told there were evil people who hated our country that crashed planes in New York. We were devastated and were sheltered through the event, yet I do remember watching the crash replays when I was supposed to be in bed. It was a day I'll never forget and when I sadly learned how evil some people can be.

Long Dong - Wedding Route
Great warmup route in the Music Hall area of Long Dong, Taiwan. 25 meters tall and overlooking a fertile reef, this is one the the easiest (and most scenic!) routes in the area.

A high-energy group of youthful, stellar musicians, the Synergy Brass Quintet, will headline Cameron University's 34th Annual Jazz Festival, scheduled for Thursday, March 11 at 7:30 p.m. in the University Theater. Combining exquisite technique and style with rock star theatrics, Synergy Brass Quintet is on a mission to reach new audiences and bring new listeners to classical music. The event will also feature performances by the Cameron University Jazz Ensemble and the Cameron/Lawton Community Jazz Ensemble, both directed by John Moots, as well as the Cameron University Centennial Singers, conducted by Doris Lambert. The Iowa Park High School Jazz Ensemble, directed by Ed Hefty, will also make a guest appearance. The concert is open to the public at no charge.
The event will feature a wide variety of big band and combo jazz music. Synergy Brass Quintet is sponsored by Cameron University Lectures and Concerts Series, Cameron University School of Liberal Arts, the Cameron University Department of Music, and Cameron University Foundation Inc. Friends of Jazz.
Members of the Cameron/Lawton Community Jazz Ensemble are Henry Adcock, Roy Couch, Ray Cox, Bruce Detweiler, Nathan Franklin, Gary Gardner, Patrick D. Gray, Derek Griner, Adam Gutierrez, Joey Kinsman, Jonathan Mosesman, Robbie Rice, Ralph Sailer, and Eric Vitense. The rhythm section includes Kay Alsobrook, Monty Booker and David Jackson. Vocalists are Henry Adcock and Jimmy Jones.
The Cameron /Lawton Community Jazz Ensemble will perform "Strike Up The Band," "Walkin' My Baby Back Home" in the style of Nat King Cole, "Sweet Georgia Brown," "Luck Be a Lady Tonite," and "Samantha."
Mosesman, Rice and Vitense are also members of the Cameron University Jazz Ensemble along with Dermont Adams, Eric Auber, Sean Batiste, Kaetlyn Brennan, Jason Elbert, Jonathan Fletcher, Lorenzo Diaz, Andrew Finley, Korynne Gonzales, Amanda Hall, Steve Melton, Levi Pettijohn and Robbie Rice. Angelika Ramsdell, Jimmy Jones and Jonathan Phelps provide vocals. Jones and Phelps join Jason Dozier, Joel Paoli and Dereck Randall to comprise the rhythm section.

The Cameron University Centennial Singers will perform "I Can't Believe You're In Love With Me," "I Wish," "Yesterday" and "Come Fly with Me."
Always striving to reach new audiences and bring new listeners to classical music, the Synergy Brass Quintet brings audiences a wide variety of music, ranging from the early Renaissance to the Modern to Jazz and Rock. The ensemble performs more concerts than anyone in classical music today, averaging nearly 300 engagements per year. Acclaimed for "a veritable fireworks display of outstanding musical ability combined with superb showmanship" (Door Concerts,Inc) in addition to "blazing precision [and] amazing technique" (The Watertown Daily Times), the Synergy Brass Quintet has emerged as one of the world's most exciting ensembles.
Their engagements have taken them to every corner of the United States including the Ravinia Music Festival in Illinois, the Bethlehem Musikfest in Pennsylvania, the Tanglewood Music Festival in Massachusetts, and internationally at the Festival de Musica de Camara de Aguascalientes. After hearing the ensemble at Tanglewood in 2003, Samuel Adler invited the Synergy Brass Quintet to perform on the premiere recording of his "Transfiguration: An Ecumenical Mass."
In addition to Synergy's rigorous performance schedule, the ensemble dedicates an enormous amount of time to the education of tomorrow's musicians and music-lovers. They have presented various programs at over 500 public schools from coast to coast. Synergy teaches the various genres of music and composer backgrounds and makes music accessible to all children. The ensemble further educates musicians by presenting master classes and events at colleges and conservatories. These workshops, clinics, residencies and master classes enable the Synergy Brass Quintet to inspire a passion for music in the next generation.

|The boys and our stroller got a lot of attention!
|Heading into town
|So many spectators!
|Ocean and sugarcane
|Half way!
|Across the bridge
|Medals and certificates
|We even had a bottle of awamori in our race packets!
A great run! The course was fairly flat with some gently rolling hills. There was no end to the cheering spectators handing out all sorts of goodies. Very similar to the Ayahashi Half with the added bonus of a beautiful vacation.

Thumboormuzhi model aerobic composting system is one of the world's most efficient and cost effective waste management models. This model adopts layering technique and a single layer may hold as much as 500 kg of wet organic waste. Hence our four layered compost bin has the capacity of two tons of organic house hold waste.. Nature friendly microbial consortiums and other materials are used to begin the compost process. This model is one the most successfully run waste transformation models.
Being an aerobic recycling model (in the presence of oxygen) temperature rises rapidly, as much as 70-80 degree (pasteurization temperature). This heat build-up curtails spreading of bacteria/ virus pathogens.
Aerobic degradation prevents putrefaction and hence no foul smell or environmental pollution occurs. The method uses a consortium of natural microbes, verified and purified by scientists; hence there is no foul smell. The entire matter completely disintegrates and hence Thumboormuzhi model is ecologically a clean model. UNDP climate control group has lauded this technology as the most ideal and safe method for India. The green house gas emissions are meager, thus valuing on carbon credits and there is no much leach ate in the process. The method uses a consortium of natural microbes verified and purified by state agricultural university. We design the culture based on the type of waste and eco factors prevailing in your zone.
The compost bins need very less space. It may be placed on a terrace too with a proper shade. The compost unit doesn't need any monitoring.
In flats or apartments, the maintenance teams can be trained and entrusted with segregation of house waste which can be deposited into the bin as a layer every day. When one bin is full with all different layers, the bin is left intact for 90 days and all the waste will be aerobically converted into quality compost.
This is the cheapest technology in India. The only one-time expense is the bin and recurring expense is cost of consortium (once a month).

It's been quite a year for Joan Smalls. In the last twelve months, the five-foot-ten stunner from Hatillo, Puerto Rico, debuted as the exclusive model in **Riccardo Tisci'**s Givenchy couture presentation, walked the runway of every major designer (a staggering 40 in her first season), has been shot by Steven Meisel and Mario Testino, starred in a Gucci campaign, and, as of this week, has been signed as the latest face of Estée Lauder.
With the ink barely dry on her contract, Smalls filmed a television commercial with Lauder models Constance Jablonski and Liu Wen on Monday and Tuesday in New York, hopped a flight to London Wednesday (for a shoot with Nick Knight), and moments after stepping off the plane, picked up the phone to call Vogue. "Yeah, I've had a long day, but it's super-exciting," she said with the trademark blend of intelligence, enthusiasm, and charm that has turned so many heads in the fashion world.
"Obviously she's beautiful," says Aerin Lauder, senior vice president and creative director for the brand, "but she's confident, happy, elegant, well-spoken, and grown-up—and it really comes through in her pictures. When we pick someone to represent the brand, it's about her personality, too. It's not just the face. You find yourself not being intimidated by her beauty, but drawn in by her warmth."
"When I found out," says Smalls, "I was in my hotel room in Milan during Fashion Week. I started jumping on the bed like a little girl. The hardest part was keeping it secret—even from my parents."
Of her fellow Lauder compatriots—France's Constance Jablonski, China's Liu Wen, Americans Carolyn Murphy, Hilary Rhoda, and Gwyneth Paltrow, and England's Elizabeth Hurley—Smalls says, "That's what I love—it's a diverse group of women who speak to all women." What she appreciates most about the newest faces, Constance and Liu Wen (who both signed in April), is that "we're all bilingual! We're different in our own ways, but we're similar, too. When we were shooting this week, I was telling the girls, 'We're the new trio!' Last season, we'd always hang out backstage, so now, being part of Estée Lauder feels like a sisterhood."
Her earliest impressions of the iconic American brand are "the ads with the beautiful woman playing with puppies"—the Pleasures fragrance ads, which Elizabeth, Gwyneth, Carolyn, and Hilary have starred in over the years—"and of that woman being so comfortable in her own skin. That's what beauty is to me." When asked about the possibility that the beautiful woman with the puppies may someday be her, she blanches. "It still hasn't hit me yet. It feels surreal."
Her favorite Lauder product is one she's been using before ever dreaming of representing the company herself: "Advanced Night Repair Eye Recovery Complex," she says automatically. "The jar is so convenient to travel with. I use it religiously—even when it's not night."

The Amazon Fire Phone was announced on June 18 by Amazon CEO, Jeff Bezos and it is still the talk of the technology world, with its 3D screen and face tracking features, the phone certainly has some flair to it, but there are many reasons why Amazon's venture into the smartphone world will fail. Here are the reasons why Amazon's Fire Phone won't set the smartphone world ablaze.
The Amazon AppStore
The Amazon AppStore is Amazon's answer to Google Play, and while the Amazon market has grown significantly over the past year, the AppStore still lacks a lot of big name applications. Jeff Bezos recently went on record to say that the AppStore now has over 240,000 applications, and while this is a decent number, it's nothing compared to the almost 900,000 applications that can be found in the Google Play store.
Microsoft and Blackberry have found out in the past that the amount of apps, and quality of applications available play a vital role in how successful a device will be. Consumers want choice, they want the latest and greatest, and they want all the apps and games their friends are using on their devices, and unfortunately unless Amazon can start adding some of the big name applications, and games to their selection, the Fire Phone will simply burn itself out.
Too much competition
The Amazon Fire phone is a mid-range device with a high-end flagship price, and this will extinguish sales before they ignite. The Fire Phone has a 2.2 GHz quad-core processor (with unspecified branding), and 2GB's of RAM. The screen size is perfect at 4.7-inches, but Amazon decided to stick with a resolution of just 720p, which will still produce great visuals, but it is certainly another mid-range specification.
The 13-megapixel camera does feature optical image stabilization (OIS), and should produce good shots in low light, but when all of these features come together you have just another Android device that will easily get lost in the sea of Android devices already available.
The two big differences between the Amazon Fire Phone and others on the market are the 3D screen, and the multiple cameras that can be used to fully render products for the FireFly service, and unless you are a headache-loving shop-a-holic, these two features will become old after two days of use. They serve no real purpose other than to get you spending more money on Amazon's website.
The AT&T factor
The phone is available exclusively on AT&T's network if you want a subsidized version of the phone, and this will put many people off from the start because AT&T are not the most well liked carrier in the nation. The starting price is $199 for a 32GB model, and $299 for a 64GB model.
If you want to get a Fire Phone directly from Amazon you will pay $649 for the 32GB and a whopping $749 for the 64GB phone. Those prices put the the Fire Phone into the same price bracket as the amazing Samsung Galaxy Note 3, the iPhone 5s, and the LG G3. Google proved to many that you do not have to spend a fortune to get a hot phone, as their high-end Nexus 5 which uses the quad-core Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM, and a 1080p display is just $349 off contract.
Failure to ignite
While Amazon must be commended for trying to innovate with the 3D screen, and the multiple camera arrangement, they have shot themselves in the foot with the pricing, and the exclusivity agreement with AT&T. If Jeff Bezos wanted to dominate the mobile shopping space (which obviously he does) the phone would have been made available to all carriers, or better yet it would have been a off contract Amazon.com exclusive. The price is also way too high, and there is no doubt that you are paying for that camera technology, because the other specifications just do not add up to that price.
The Amazon Fire Phone is destined to follow in the footsteps of the worst Android device ever made, The HTC First. The 'Facebook' phone as it was dubbed failed so badly that even when the price dropped from $199 on contract to just .99 cents, AT&T still could not sell them. HTC found out rather quickly just how bad exclusivity deals can be.
The writing is already on the wall for Jeff Bezos, and Amazon. I just can't help but think that the Fire Phone will become another smoldering pile in the world of smartphones and mobile technology.

Area Information
The town of Horley is located in the borough of Reigate and Banstead in the county of Surrey. Beginning life as a sleepy residential town, the area underwent a major transformation from the late 19th century to early 20th century with the twin developments of the railway line and Gatwick Airport in the region. The expansion of the airport has always been a major topic of debate in the area. That being said, its proximity to the airport has boosted the local economy considerably and also put Horley on the map as a popular commuter idyll. Walking trails around the River Mole are major attractions in the area, as is the site of Thunderfield Castle.
Business Information
A large portion of the available office space is situated on the property of Gatwick Airport and is occupied by major airlines and other businesses related to the services and hospitality industries. One of the top UK gas distribution companies, Scotia Gas Networks, has a significant presence in the region. Next Retail, Marks & Spencer, Martell's Department Store and Debenhams are some of the main retail spaces in the vicinity.
Entertainment And Dining Out
Horley is home to The Archway Theatre, located under the arches of the Victoria Road Railway Bridge it is one of the most unique theatres in the country. In addition to a studio theatre and auditorium that host great productions all year round, the venue also has a bar that keeps you entertained throughout the night. Numerous dining options ensure that you never have to worry about finding a great place to eat. Make your way to The Half Moon for splendid European fare, New Curry Bengal for fiery Indian food and Le Gourmet for a fusion of French and Spanish cuisine.
Transport Information
Horley railway station is the primary railhead in the area, with access to numerous train services on the main line from Brighton to London Victoria station. All the stops on the route can be accessed easily from here. Gatwick Airport is within walking distance and local buses connect various points around town.
