Some of the best home cooked meals can be found in your local gas station. This is a well kept secret by some to ensure when they go for lunch or dinner that there will be some for them. I am NOT promoting this store at all by any means. However, I am saying spend more wisely and think smarter. If you're hungry, McDonald's is NOT the only place open. And if you like food that is cheap, check out the deals at your local gas station convenience store. From Ice cold fountain drinks, to boiled peanuts, to hot dogs,coffee, sandwiches, and churros, you can save so much money just by taking a 1-3 minute drive down the road to a convenient store to catch a great deal for under $5 that will feed the entire family!
Check the photo below…see anything you would like to buy? Number one rule of convenience stores – don't forget to pack a snack and you can avoid the pain of having to choose something. Of course, even Snack Girl isn't perfect and was looking for a snack when she shot this photo.
We've compiled a list of 10 quick snacks found in gas stations. Some of these items are stomach fillers, while many others are not so healthy to eat. However, people still buy them because they are juicy, yummy, delicious and quick to eat.
1. Beef Jerkey
No food helps you work out your frustrations as well as beef jerkey. If you feel like you might get lost, slowed by the elements, or stuck in traffic, be sure to grab some before the most arduous leg of your journey. You'll thank us as you work out your anger at the traffic gods by gnawing your way through some beef jerkey rather than punching the dashboard and hurting your hand.
2. Hot Dogs
We see that face you're making. Don't act you haven't resorted to a gas station hot dog and kind of liked it. We've all been mesmerized by the red glow of those dogs that have clearly been simmering in that glass case for days. It's never a good idea to buy one of these, but if you stare at them long enough, you can convince yourself to pull the trigger.
3. Trail Mixes
When you become an adult, you often get the idea in your head that the only way to start a party is to get your hands on some booze and weed. Wrong! The original way to start a party is to get your hands on some righteous party, trail, or Chex mix. Odds are you can't stand at least one part of the mix: Nobody loves corn chips, tortilla chips, cheese curls, pretzels AND knock-off Doritos. Half the fun of party mix is digging through the bag and tossing your least favorite pieces out on to the road to poison the local wildlife as you dine on only your favorite portions of the mix.
4. Chocolate Bars
Obviously whomever invented this bullshit is a genius. I dated a girl once who ate Snickers bars for breakfast and when I asked her why, she told me that "Snickers really satisfies." She was like the kind of girl who treated commercial slogans like hypotheses she'd eagerly test out in his own life and then declare correct or not. Since that relationship I've been off that sauce, but when it all comes down to it, this is the definition of a candy bar, although it gets a bit boring now.
5. Salted Seeds
Most gas stations sell sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds, also known aspepitas, which make for a high-fiber, nutritious snack when portions are kept in proportion.A handful of sunflower seeds will take care of your hunger, while also enhancing your health by supplying significant amounts of vitamin E, magnesium and selenium.

Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
– Matthew 6:33
I feel as though I could let words of Jesus in the above verse just speak for itself. However, I suppose I should elaborate on how special and sweet, how comforting and challenging these words really are. They certainly have been that weighty for me, and I pray that they sink down deep into your soul as you read them. Take a minute… meditate on those words. Let them refresh you like a warm sip of your favorite hot drink. If you are looking for a simple life motto to live by, my hope is that perhaps this is what you can cling to.
When I reflect on my time at UVa (which I know many of us fourth-years are doing right now too), I think back through four years of fond memories: late night Cookout runs with friends, studying for exams while eating snacks at the Stud, laughing with housemates over ridiculous shenanigans, fall retreats, praying and reading Scripture in a garden by the Lawn at sunset, hugs from Miss Kathy, brother-sister small group hikes up Humpback… Then, I remember the many difficult moments as well: the nights of anxiety and immense stress; entire seasons of loneliness and depression, and the mornings where I would wake up wondering how I would get through the day.
No matter the memory, I am overwhelmed with a recurring theme: God's grace. His favor, which frankly, I don't deserve. Yet there it is. God's grace is a common thread through every one of my lived experiences, even when I am completely unaware of it. Even in this moment, I zoom out to realize that I am… alive. I exist. I am breathing with the breath God breathed in me. Hundreds of millions of alveoli in my lungs are participating in gas exchange, while my heart's ventricles and atria pump blood together in perfect harmony over 100,000 times a day to distribute oxygen to my body. (Okay, the pre-med geek in me is showing…) There are tens of thousands of daily miracles occurring to sustain our physical bodies. I wonder, how many more daily miracles sustain my soul?
I so often take for granted just how good the Good News really is. When I think about it though… I was utterly dead in my sin and rebellion, which left me longing and empty; and now, I'm alive in Jesus. Because God Himself was willing to humble Himself to become a human, live a perfect life, and die the humiliating death I deserved, I am able to live in restored shalom (true peace and wholeness) with my Creator, presently and for eternity after death. Not only that – but we, as broken and flawed individuals, now get to partner with that same Creator in the greatest redemptive story of all time, sharing this reckless God-love with others.
Wait. Stop. Really? What the heck! That is such good news! If you stop reading this post right now, but took away just how good the simple Gospel is, it would be more than enough.
I am reminded of the words my friend Jonah once told me: "The Gospel isn't the old news, it's the good news."The Gospel is not simply a message that we hear once, but rather a daily reality of which we get to be a part. The Gospel is past, present, and future. The Gospel is Jesus, nothing else. Following Jesus is not a one-time decision, but a choice we get to make each morning when we wake up. We have the privilege of making the radical choice each day to seek first His kingdom and His righteousness. And this is something that recently has meant a lot to me. My friend Abigail put it this way: "Choosing to wake up and follow Jesus each day is always a radical decision – just as radical as the day you decided to follow Him." My friends, the pressure is off! We don't have to try to perform big acts of righteousness for God to get Him to love us. The Apostle Paul said at the end of Romans 8 that nothing in all creation can separate us from the love of God in Jesus. The Gospel really is that simple. Yet, it is the most profound reality in the world, taking an entire lifetime to understand and then live out.
Having a solid grasp of who God is and who we are will help us in every nook and cranny of our lives. Once we know who we are, we don't have to worry about what to do, because we will naturally move in our identity as sons and daughters of the King. What is it, then, that makes Matthew 6:33 so significant?
My second year, I was a part of a small group of guys that each latched onto a catchphrase throughout the year – "Seek First." It became a way of life. Whenever we were trying to align our hearts with God or grow closer to Him as a group, we would encourage each other by asking, "How are we seeking first?" Whether it was relationships, friendships, academics, life goals, future plans, personal struggles, it seemed to always apply to everything: "I just need to seek first." I have often pondered why the words "seek first His kingdom and His righteousness" centered me so much.
Have you ever had too much to do, and not enough time to do it? Or have you ever done all you need to do, but still felt worried about how something would turn out? In most modern American contexts, especially in academic or professional settings, sorting out our priorities (plural) is a common practice due to hectic schedules and time constraints. What if it were simpler, and we had only one priority (singular) – the Kingdom of God and His righteousness? This way, our faith isn't reduced to a To-Do List, perpetually checking off boxes like the Pharisees did. Matthew 6:33 comes right at the end of a passage where Jesus teaches about not worrying. To detach us from the subtle, yet heavy undertow of materialism, and to derail us from our cyclical patterns of worry, Jesus points us to the birds of the air or the lilies of the field. Jesus speaks to the Kingdom value of simplicity.[1]
Immediately, it is easy for me to counter Jesus' words with thoughts like, "What about making sure I fulfill your exact calling on my life?" or, "What if I don't make enough money?" or maybe, "I have been seeking first your kingdom and righteousness – look at all that I am doing for you!" (I don't know if those thoughts resonate with you, too). But Jesus' words have this way of debunking the lies and fears within me, working their way into each circumstance.
When I think of His kingdom, my mind quickly jumps to the external – how Jesus impacted others around Him for God's glory. When I think of His righteousness, I think of the internal – how Jesus related to the Father, and of His character. Perhaps this is a helpful distinction in our pursuit of living this verse, but perhaps not. The question still remains: How exactly does one go about seeking first His kingdom and His righteousness? Is it to prioritize serving the poor and administering justice for the oppressed? Is it to serve in a church, or join a small group? Is it all about reading the Bible, prayer, and worship? Or maybe it's to proclaim to everyone the good news about Jesus, and to make disciples. That must be it right? Theologian and philosopher Søren Kierkegaard, in his book Christian Discourses,responds to this by saying: "No, thou shalt first seek God's kingdom.But then in a certain sense it is nothing I shall do. Yes, certainly, in a certain sense it is nothing, become nothing before God, learn to keep silent; in this silence is the beginning, which is firstto seek God's kingdom."[2]
Seeking firstis more of a heart posture – a way to be. We must remember we were not created as "human doings," but rather as "human beings." What a relief this is! No longer is our faith only about doing all the right things, making sure each area of our life is aligned with God's will – like trying to keep a bunch of cats in a full bathtub (which wouldn't work very well…) If we align our hearts with His heart, we will naturally move in His will.
However, this is perhaps the hardest part of seeking first: it's dying to all our preconceived notions of what we think His kingdom and righteousness look like, and listening to God Himself to direct our steps. Then, and only then, will our actions be able to align with Matthew 6:33. God's great irony (exemplified through the crucifixion and the resurrection) is: the extent that we die to ourselves is the extent that we truly live. Jesus taught this concept – humility leads to exaltation, and exaltation leads to humility (Matthew 23:12).
In my heart I have wrestled with God just as Jacob did over this whole concept. Matthew 6:33 challenges me to consider my own heart posture in everything – in putting others first, in serving the poor, in giving voice to the voiceless, in racial reconciliation, in disciple-making and reaching the lost, as well as in using my vocation and the opportunities God has given me for His glory. Having meaningful discussions this year in the Horizons Fellows Program about each of these things and more has made me more aware of that which God calls us out ofand calls us to. And it drives me back all the more to Matthew 6:33. I've learned so much from our Horizons Fellows community. One of the biggest things is how God's will for our lives is not as much a linear path as many see it, but more of a green pasture to dance within – the type in which David was made to lie down (Psalm 23:2).
Hopefully you find this as an encouragement in whatever season of life you find yourself in. For graduating fourth years especially, who may still be figuring out their next steps, or having doubts about the plans they have made, I hope this meets you right where you are. Though God may not bring perfect clarity about our futures, He brings something better – trust. Ultimately, seeking first His kingdom and His righteousness is the chief means for the liberation of our souls. Though nothing is more challenging, nothing is simpler either. Though nothing demands more of you, nothing will be as rewarding either. It was the way we were created to live. Seek God, and all the rest will fall into place.

In this growing age of technology, you might have come across the term "the rise of APIs" but you might not be concretely aware of what it means. It is a huge trend adopted by organisations lately to bring them operational efficiency and enhance performance. For example, Salesforce reportedly generates 50 percent of its revenue through the use of an API, whilst eBay nearly 60% and to top it off, Expedia about 90%.
API stands for ...
… for Application Programmatic Interface. In the simplest terms, it is a set of function which allows the creation of additional features on top of another system. They are what makes it possible to move information between platforms. APIs work as a plugin tool which is a bridge between separate platforms allowing to share data with unique functionalities.
How it works?
An API works through a set of given programmatic language that accomplishes a specific task, and allows an interaction. Having an API will allow you to manipulate an existing program to serve your own business interests. It can harness business intelligence or create remote storage by forming a technology layer on top of an existing platform. For instance, when you buy a movie ticket online and enter your payment details, the movie ticket website uses an API to send your payment details to an application that verifies if your information is correct. The integration between the two platforms, the website and the source checking your bank details, comes through an API.
The Benefits
You might have stumbled across the benefits of API along with how it is improving the API economy. API economy is a general term which addresses how APIs can positively influence an organisation's profitability. APIs can successfully reach new consumers, fuel internal innovation and enhance partnerships. As this technology layer is a communication bridge between platforms, companies can now collect important consumer information across all touch points. APIs also allow you to have a variety of data extracted from different sources in place. You can keep track of important consumer or business intelligence information all in one place, adding value to your services.

3rd Year Studio Solo Work, Tianjin University, Autumn 2014
Advisor: Zhang Xin Nan, Wang Xuan
Site: Tianjin, China
The project is a response to Paul Gauguin's life experience. The ground floor is permeated by four light towers. Visitors penetrate into these light towers on the roof level and thus get a different aspect of view of all the exhibition.
The venue is located nearby the Tianjin Art Academy. An entrepreneur with a large collection wish to build a small art gallery of Paul Gauguin. So, the Architectural language, style and the space circumstances should match the art style of Paul Gauguin and that will help the visitors easily understand the art works of Paul Gauguin.
In this project the priority is to decode the great artist of Paul Gauguin instead of the venue. For Paul Gauguin, the evolution of his art styles in different periods cannot be ignored, from early impressionism to transition period and the primitivism at last. The Art style evolution initiated from his experiences on Tahiti island. He had travelled Tahiti couple of times and he was fascinated by the fancy-free life on that island which is quite alien to the urban life. And the liberty of life influenced his thoughts just like a poison that changed the art style of his work.
Therefore, I would like to reveal the transition of Paul Gauguin' art style and life journey through my architectural design. In my design, the lights will come from the roof with different patterns of impressions and an imitation of the geographic location of Tahiti island is specifically designed. Through an inverted cone shaped roof the lights pour into the indoor space becomes a strong visual symbol, by manipulating the light bar, the different art styles of his early to late art life can be interpreted in this design.
To achieve the goal, I have done my research on art characters of Paul Gauguin's work in his different art periods to find out the key words and concepts. In his impressionism period the main concepts are: clarity, dim and homogenised. To correspond this concepts, I designed glass of inverted cone shape hanging on the roof of this part of gallery. In his transitional period his art style turns more heavy and free on colours, and there is a trend of his art evolution to reckless and untrammelled in style. To correspond this concepts, I designed concrete tube of inverted cone shape which light can comes through the tube. In his third period, which is the period he spent on the Tahiti island, the concrete tube of inverted cone shape will have a larger size, some part may even touch the ground of the gallery. And in this period, Paul Gauguin decided to give up his class, family and everything to the island alone. The visitors can go to the roof directly from this room, to experience the symbol of the island, the imitation of its geographic location. Passed the roof, there is another opportunity to pass the other parts of this gallery. The light will stab into inverted cone, when visitors get in to the 8 metres' height space, they will experience a bright, independent emotion just like o that pacific island. Meanwhile looking down they can see those art works they had passed by, that will give them a different impression, and further understandings of the Paul Gauguin' s art journey will be established.
In this design, the light from the roof symbolized the spirit of primitivism from the island which consumed the spiritual world of artist that pushed his style evolution of art. Finally, to get to the fourth part of the gallery, the space here is mostly occupied by an inverted cone. Sufficient light pour into the space, and the tube is only one person's height to the ground, along with a rough surface of the tube the flow water dripped into an indoor pool with on sharp edges. The most important art work "Where are we from? Who are we? Where we go?" (141×377cm) stand on an enterable area at the pool centre.
Here below are the key factors of this design. Firstly, the space corruption of light from the roof represent the temptation and influence to Paul Gauguin' s spiritual world; Secondly, analyzation of venue. Such a huge gallery in 10 meters' height is not suitable the surrounding street, due to our research, 7 metre in height could be a perfect height to fit the other buildings. Therefore, I sunk the building for 3 steps in depth, the sunk steps will become the necessary route to visit gallery that will provide visitor a transition process by calming their emotions; Thirdly, the space typology of gallery. And I'd like to describe the Gauguin' s art style of each period in two adjectives. To correspond with four gallery parts, four types of inverted cone are design in different angle,tube openness, heights and materials, to match the art styles of Gauguin, and nearly a hundred space typology had been discussed. Fourthly, the space organization. Here I implement the concept of second passing by first make visitor pass the gallery on the ground follow the visiting route, and finally get into the light tube to look down the art work for again for new understanding about art. And I made the space typology of second passing strategy some adjustment due to the situation of the venue. The original visiting route changed along with the move of rooms of the gallery. These jagged changes and compromise had created some small plazas and crevice. The plazas corresponded to more surrounding axis and space that forged a larger plaza and created a better public space.
Fifthly, the influence to public. From the ground to the mid-air, I designed a up forward 'deck' to guide people on the street to a public visiting and lecture area. Standing at the end of the 'deck' there are galleries in front of visitors, some seminar or lectures will regularly take place. By the way, the visiting route fully accessed to the 'deck', the public can enter the gallery from outside public space, that will be good propaganda by satisfy the curiosity of people. Below the 'deck' a café and other leisure space can provide to public free.

Uh oh. News this morning that Mario Batali is being accused of sexual harassment.
Anyone who has worked in the restaurant biz knows the environment is tough. Diva chefs. Drugs. Craziness abounds. It strikes me as odd that the charges are being levied now. Batali has long left being in the kitchen. So these charges had to be long ago or are as part of his ownership of Eataly.
He's a cohost of the daily cooking show The Chew and it was said Mario was responsible for forcing Daphne Oz's departure, that they butt heads.
I've never met the man but I did have one kid who worked in the kitchen at Tarry Lodge. The stories were pretty terrible back then.
Stay tuned.

The Gap
How big is the gap from where you are now to where you want to be? What life goals are you setting? Also when you set a goal do you work through the SMART acronym?
- Specific
- Measureable
- Attainable (Or Attractive)
- Realistic
- Timely
I find this task very challenging for clients to honestly self reflect on exactly how big their gap is. The gap to them might not seem big at all. If you say the goal quickly and easily, how hard must it be to achieve! So when you break the goal down to understand what you need to change to actually achieve it, the gap can be quite big.
Take my journey. I want to get up at 6am every day and go for a 30min brisk walk, jog or bike ride. Easy to say and I honestly believe it can be achieved! I'm a pretty healthy person who goes to the gym consistently and is generally quite active. I get up at that time occasionally, not all the time but have been known too. So how big can the gap possibly be? Well if you start looking into the gap and obstacles there are so many things to take into account:
- Health issues may pop up
- Commitments
- The hours you currently start work
- Are you just at your place during the week or at a partners place
- Things outside your circle of influence
There are always obstacles to do with the gap that you need to take into account. So after troubleshooting my gap I've decided that getting up 3 times a week is more of an achievable goal! Plus once I have consistently achieved that I could always look at growing it.
These are some great questions you need to ask yourself:
- Am I currently doing this new habit at all?
- How often do I want to do my new habit?
- Is the new habit just about me or is there other people involved?
- Is there space for my new habit in my current life schedule or do I need to make space?
- Do you need external help or support to achieve your new habit?
You may think these questions seem highly specific but that's the point! You need to be specific and think of all the obstacles when goal setting. Being honest with yourself by the way of self reflection is the only way you are going to achieve your goals and be kind to yourself along the when closing the gap.

Finally, almost two weeks later, I'm getting a chance to blog about Mom's Night Out. What an awesome night! We had a really great turnout and things couldn't have been better. First of all, the food. Amazing! If you ever need a caterer, give me a shout. I've got a great guy, and some ladies that can vouch for it! Gourmet veggies, cheese, crostinis, dessert... yum. The other highlight of the night were the goodie bags that each mom got to take home. Inside were tons of gift certificates and coupons to local businesses. And I mean GOOD stuff. Rumor's graciously donated a gift certificate for their express service to each and every guest... at $100 a pop! We also had some fab door prizes. I've already heard from several clients who went and pampered themselves. I have to give a shout out to the other businesses who donated gift certificates, coupons and door prizes ( I hope I am not forgetting anyone!)
Here I am giving a short presentation on taking better snapshots of your kids on a daily basis.
It really couldn't have been a better night. Thank you again to everyone who came. I will definitely be hosting more events in the future, so if you missed out, don't despair!

We are embarrassed to note that it is over a month since we last posted on our news page! That said, we have been exceptionally busy working away on a number of projects and having lots of fun to boot.
So what kept us so busy in April? A high point was the delivery of an exceptional assessment simulation for the University of Liverpool at Anfield Stadium. The simulation was for 355 first year students and we were delighted with a high attendance rate of 96%. This was the first time we had run the event for first years and they were so impressive in their preparation and performance on the day – a real credit to the university and themselves. We saw all sorts of creativity and were delighted with the feedback from the students on the event and also the increase in confidence they told us they gained from attending.
We turned a big five years old on 12th April and celebrated with cakes for our clients and supporters, along with a little celebration for the core team. Turning five is a big achievement for a small business as most UK businesses do not reach this special milestone. Our birthday coincided with the news that we have been awarded a place on the Scale Up North East programme. The Scale Up programme works with businesses that can demonstrate both the hunger and the potential to achieve high levels of growth by 2021 and we are delighted to be identified in this category and very ready for the challenge ahead!
We have had the green light on five new university projects so have been preparing project plans for each client to ensure that we have everything set up to deliver our outstanding service. Sophie has been busy negotiating with new venues to take our assessment simulations to which has been fun.
An invitation to employers: we are excited to be collaborating with our friends at GradTouch in a few weeks. On May 24th, we will be running an early evening event in London for graduate employers to come together over pizza and beer to hear from both GradTouch and Smart Resourcing Solutions and share best practice across a range of graduate recruitment topics. Places are limited to first come, first served so get in touch to reserve your place.

Blending Doing Good With Doing Well At Salesforce
Good morning from London, where yesterday I helped host the Fortune CEO Series at Salesforce.com's U.K. Dreamforce event, a trade-show-like conference to interact with the software company's customers.
Salesforce (CRM) has become well known for blending doing good with doing well. So when it brings together customers to pitch them on why they should buy its wares, it also sells them on its philosophy of combining good works with good business. (Not coincidentally, Salesforce is sponsoring The CEO Initiative, Fortune's inaugural conference in September that will celebrate and highlight how business can be a force for good.)
Doing good is subjective, of course, and I interacted in London with a fascinating mélange of opinion leaders who in their own way are affecting the relationship between business and a wide variety of "stakeholders." Jimmy Wales, the founder of Wikipedia, for example, is starting something called Wikitribune, a crowdsourced site that will pay journalists to write real news. I'm tempted to discount Wikitribune's potential influence, but then look at how Wikipedia has changed our approach to conducting research. Because of the dedication of its volunteer editors, Wikipedia can correct mistakes and falsehoods quickly. Maybe he's on to something.
Another surprising person who wants to interact with the business community is Michael Moller, director-general of the United Nations in Geneva. Essentially the chief operating officer of the UN, Moller spoke about the international organization's efforts to combat income inequality and other social ills. I asked him how business could work with the UN. "Call me," he said.
As I prepare to head home, I can't help but note it's been an inordinately busy news week around the world. Alibaba (BABA), a company I've been following closely of late, turned in a boffo sales report. Bloomberg's John Micklethwait wrote what I think is one of the most cogent arguments for how to evaluate Donald Trump's presidency. And, of course, the American political and news scene lost a controversial legend, Roger Ailes. His faults were well documented, but I'll take the occasion of his passing to note that my brief interaction with Ailes, and his wife Beth, was over the founding of a TV show, "TheStreet.com on the Fox News Channel," in 1999. The team Ailes assembled taught me how to do television and began a happy association that continues for me to this day. For that, I'm grateful.
Have a peaceful weekend.

The Hair Regrowth Treatment That Will Save You from Big Problem
For those who have been struggling with the hair loss and want to find the best hair regrowth treatment, you won't have to worry anymore since we are going to share you the best hair regrowth treatment that we've found.
PRP – Platelet Rich Plasma
One of the of the hair regrowth treatment that you can consider to get is PRP – Platelet Rich Plasma. It is a great method of hair restoration and skin rejuvenation. It has also been used on many occasions by many health practitioners to overcome the problem of the hair loss suffered by their patients.
The Drt Hair Clinic in Istanbul, Turkey, has gladly announced this effective solution is added to their options to help their clients to overcome the hair loss problem. Now the Drt Hair Clinic can claim that they have the better chances for hair restoration procedure results with this solution. The recent research has shown that the PRP has been an effective procedure of treatment for hair and skin restoration.
Through the uses of the Platelet Rich Plasma or PRP aesthetic is still in early phase, Dr. Tayfun who develops in Dry Hair Clinic believes that this will be incredibly successful to handle the most common problems in hair, which is hair loss. Both men and women have the chance to hair loss condition when they age, but it happens mostly to men. If you notice that you have trouble with your fair, you will need to check yourself up ASAP and decide whether you will need the advanced hair regrowth treatment or not. The good thing here is that you can contact the Drt Hair Clinic by phone and consult with the experts about your condition.
So, you may ask a question about what is the PRP therapy actually. Some of you have probably known the definition of the platelets. These are the normal component contained in the human blood. The function of platelets is to make the blood clot when the human bleed. Back then, the scientists tested the platelets for their research. They filtered the platelets from the patient's blood. Then the platelets were concentrated in the centrifuge to assess the ability of the healing.
Sooner, the scientists found that the filtered and concentrated platelets have healing properties which can be used to fix the broken tissues. The concentrated platelets can regenerate and multiply the tissues much faster. That means ones can accelerate the healing process in the dermatology, including the hair regrowth treatment.
The doctors and researchers agree that the Platelet Rich Plasma has incredible perks which are revolutionary in the world of hair treatment. The doctors found that the PRP is very beneficial for hair regrowth and hair thickening. Not to mention that it is also good for restoring the skin to more youthful experience. The good thing about the longevity, the PRP treatments do not require the downtime. Incredible, isn't it?
Hair Follicle Germs Cultivation
Meanwhile, in Tokyo, we have another hope from the latest study which introduces us to the new way to grow the hair follicles at the record rate. The study involves the cultivation of hair follicle germs which are the sources of the organs that grow and maintain the hair on your body.
The professor Junji Fukuda claims to be the person In charge of this study. He assembled the team in Yokohama National University to manage the research years before. His team found that the cultivation of hair follicle germ will help to regrow hair significantly. He claimed that he and his team were able to cultivate around 5.000 hairs in just a few days. That is indeed a breaking through experience which can be aspired by all the hair treatment enthusiasts.
The high-end technology which uses this method can create up to 50 germs at once. The end results of the hair regrowth treatment from this might not be soon to reveal because the researchers will still need to weigh few aspects before introducing this as the final product.
Human tests might not be maintained anytime soon. But many researchers and scientists agree that it is going to be a revolutionary way to cure the hair loss problem. If this works, hair regrowth treatment that you need to stick will be this because of the permanent result. Fukuda also stated that this can also be used to alter the condition of cancer patients as well as other health conditions which can affect the hair loss.
As we know, the current hair treatments and medications can only slow down the hair loss process, not reverse it a bit. Men cannot avoid having male pattern baldness. However, they can still low it down. The cultivation of the hair follicle germs can be a breakthrough. But Fukuda said that it should be ready in ten years or so. There is still a long learning curve.
The Exploitation of Tregs
A new finding has been published by the US scientist about the hair regrowth thing. The researchers claim that the immune cells called Tregs can affect the hair regrowth treatment. They found it when they remove the Tregs from the laboratory mice and found out that the hair failed to grow back. So, what does it mean? Tregs can affect the stem cells effectiveness. When the Tregs are compromised, the stem cells will also be affected. The result, the hair will fail to regrow. If the Tregs are knocked out, the hair won't just grow. The defects of the Tregs is believed to be the root problem of the alopecia areata, immune diseases and other health problems which cause the hair loss.
Through the high-end imaging techniques, the researchers found that the Tregs will gather around follicle stem cells to procure the regrow of the hair. When tregs were removed, the hair regrowth won't be happening. To conclude, Tregs have huge impacts on hair regrowth. Improving the tregs will help the hair regrowth treatment effectively. However, there is still a long learning curve.
We just have to wait until it becomes the final product so that you will have more options for fixing your hair loss problem.
You will want to follow all the three findings above to reserve the best options for hair regrowth treatment for you. Share this article with your friends or family if you think it is helpful.

At The Cocoknot Theori, whenever we feel a block in our creativity we try to do something analog and it has worked like a charm. The reason we are planning to include our travel experiences is to inspire everyone to take a break once in a while and do something that is not digital.
Meanwhile, do check this playlist that offers some tips for developing creativity in artists.

Spice up your sweet potatoes with chicken, chile peppers, black beans and enchilada sauce. These stuffed sweet potatoes are an all in one dinner that will keep your family running to the table.
Do you like a low maintenance yet tasty meal? We are all about low maintenance meals at our house. That's why I love making these Enchilada Stuffed Sweet Potatoes. They are super easy to make, but taste like you've spent hours cooking.
Easy Weeknight Meals
It seems like our busiest days fall on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. These are the days when we have drama club, music lessons, and our co-op we attend. There's just not much time for cooking because I feel like a taxi driver! Even so, I still want to gather with my family at dinner time and have something delicious. More important is the time we spend together, but I think the delicious food draws them in! haha! If I got take-out on these crazy days I'd probably go broke and I wouldn't be eating very healthy. You'll like this better than fast food.
Enchilada Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
All you need for this recipe is, sweet potatoes, chicken, onion, black beans, mild green chiles, cumin, cheese, enchilada sauce and sour cream. Most of this, you may already have. If not, get it on your meal plan for next week!
Make this in 3 easy steps:
- Bake the sweet potatoes at 400 for about an hour.
- While the potatoes are baking, make the filling. Saute the onion, chicken, and green chiles. Once that's cooked, add the black beans and a quarter cup of enchilada sauce.
- Slice the potatoes, add the filling, top with cheese and put it back in the oven for a few minutes until the cheese is melted. Serve with a drizzle of enchilada sauce and sour cream.
How easy is that?! Stuffed Sweet Potatoes, and dinner's done! It's delicious, it's good for you and it won't break your pocket book!
A word about enchilada sauce~ You can use store bought or home made. Lately, my favorite is this recipe from Gimme Some Oven. She knocks it out of the park with this sauce!
Do you have a solution for a low maintenance meal? Tell me about it in the comments!
Enchilada Stuffed Sweet Potatoes

- Saute the onions in the oil on medium heat until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the chicken and cumin and saute' until cooked through.
- Add the green chiles, black beans, and enchilada sauce, and cook until warmed through.
- When the potatoes are finished baking, slice them in half. Scoop out just a little bit of the flesh to make room for the enchilada mixture.

|Black Velvet (Lethbridge, Alberta)
Danfield's sits at the top of the line of whiskies at Black Velvet distillery in Lethbridge, Alberta, and, indeed - a very worthwhile line of whiskies. The 21 year old is stunning (and less than $50), and one of the best Canadian whiskies.
Review (2016)
Batch: N/A
Botting Code: L834911021526
Bottling Date: 2013
Soft, and clean - quite graceful. All sorts of apple in this one - seed, flesh, juice, skin, the smell of apples in a cellar - with toffee, white grape, cinnamon, clove, and rich wood underneath which lends good complexity into the mix. Lightly earthy, as well...really not bad! Pleasing, and definitely Danfield's - I am pleasantly surprised. Light bitterness on the end drops the score here a touch, but this is quite worthwhile.
Recommended (81% of whiskies I've reviewed to date get this recommendation or higher).
Value: High, at $33.

Question: Diabetes and creatine level
|dobean - Wed Jul 09, 2003 4:10 pm
Please explain what is the normal creatine level and what it has to do with diabetes and kidney function? Thanks :?
|Dr. Tamer Fouad - Thu Jul 10, 2003 1:49 pm
Creatinine is a substance that is readily filtered by the kidneys. Since it is neither actively reabsorbed nor is actively secreted in the urine via specific cells in the kidneys, it is taken as a good measure for the overall filtration ability of the kidneys and hence an indication of overall kidney function. Actually for the creatinine levels to rise in blood (which means they are not being filtered outside the body into the urine), more than 40% of the kidneys must have stopped working.
Diabetes is a disease known to affect the small vessels of the body possibly by affecting the lipid balance in the body. These vessels become hard and tight so that less blood passes through them leading to a decrease in blood supply reaching the tissues. One of the tissues known to be affected by this condition is the kidney tissue. This leads to a disease known as Klimesteil Wilson Syndrome.
Normal levels for an
adult female: upto 1.1mg/dL (SI: 97 umol/L).
adult male: upto 1.2mg/dL (SI: 106).
|MunchkinsDad - Tue Aug 24, 2004 3:38 pm
I have been just diagnosed with diabetes. It was a physical before a back operation. Now I cannot have it till everything is normal.
My triglycerides are 3000
Blood sugar 338
Creatine +1
Liver function above normal
I read this post and had a question... Could I have a liver disease that is causing my creatine level and tri's to go to 3000? I exersise very regularly and these results are horrible for the activities I do. It doesnt make sense and that is why I would like to find out what is causing these horrible results.
I had been on a lo carb diet for some time and then went off it 6 months ago because of weightlifting and now I am back on it.
I thought I was relatively healthy, I have been weightlifting 3 times a week for 7 months am 230lbs ( there is some fat still to get rid of). No work because of my back condition due to a car accident.
I also wanted to take a creatine suppliment for weightlifting but am not sure if I should because my level was +1
Can you help?
|Dr. Yasser Mokhtar - Tue Aug 24, 2004 7:17 pm
Dear MunchkinsDad,
i suppose that the samples of triglycerides were taken after at least 12-13 hours of fasting.
High triglycerides can be expected in patients with diabetes. The reason for it is inuslin deficiency. It is part of the metabolic derangement that occurs in diabetes. Once your diabetes is under better control, it should come down, if not, you have to take medications to bring the triglycerides down, otherwise, you carry the risk of having pancreatitis with such high figures.
Were you taking any steroids then when you had these samples taken? Were you having any symptoms before that or totally accidentally found when you were having the pre-op evaluation?
Regarding what you mentioned as creatine level, did you mean creatinine level? Creatinine level is a blood test that is done to check for kidney function. i am not sure what you meant by +1. It has to have a figure and the lab should give the range of normal values and the units used as well because there are 2 ways in expressing creatinine levels and the values are really different.
If this is creatinine level that you meant and if it is 1, this is normal.
Regarding whether or not to take creatine, please, consult with your doctor before taking any medications or supplements.
About creatine, your kidneys have to be absolutely normal to be able to take creatine in order to be able to clear the additional creatine that is there during the loading dose. It looks like your kidney functions are normal. If your doctor decides that it is safe for you to take creatine then you have to make sure you are really very well hydrated particularly during the loading period.
Thank you very much for using our website https://doctorslounge.com and i hope that this information helped.

|MunchkinsDad - Wed Aug 25, 2004 5:36 am
Thanks for your response!
I had no idea what so ever that I had a problem, in fact, I would brag that I was as healthy as could be.
The Dr. did the physical and said he would call about the blood work but everything looked good for the back operation.
Before I got into my car he ran me down and said he had to talk to me more because they just faxed the blood work. Diabetes... put me on a pill and wanted more blood work which is when I found about about the high tri's and such.
No steroids! I just lift weights for excersise, fat loss and muscle building. Recreational kind of thing. I read that protien drinks help and so I had been taking that and getting ready to take creatine.
Yes it was creatinine 1.2
I did fast.
Ketones 1+
Ast 47
Its hard to believe I have diabetes but I am really concerned about any other problems that havent been found.
I am taking an herb to reduce the tri's."
|Dr. Yasser Mokhtar - Mon Sep 06, 2004 12:36 pm
Dear MunchkinsDad,
At your age, the type of diabetes that you have is most probably type 2 diabetes which means that you have a genetic predisposition to have diabetes espeically if one or both of your parents or if any of your siblings have diabetes.
i think you are doing the right decision by continuing to exercise and lead a healthy life style. If you are going to take any herbal preparations, i personally don't have any objections to that on a condition that you tell your doctor about that supplement and that he makes sure that it does interact with any of the other medications that you are taking. Regarding taking creatine, i don't see a problem but you will have to tell your doctor about that, too.
You will have to be following with your doctor regarding your diabetes on a regular and close basis. You will have to take medications to protect your kidneys against diabetes, you will have to have eye examinations on regular basis to make sure that diabetes has not affected your eyes and you will have to make sure that your blood pressure and cholesterol profile are under strict control.
Thank you very much for using our website https://doctorslounge.com and i hope that this information helped and if you have any concerns, don't hesitate to post them.
Yasser Mokhtar, M.D.
|MunchkinsDad - Mon Sep 06, 2004 2:55 pm
Thank You Dr for your reply.
My Dr. sais to stop taking the protien drinks and any other muscle enhancing products. I do not agree with him about that, but he says if you are not going to make money, don't take all the pills.
I found some other herbal pills to help me stay off of perscription drugs for the diabetes. It is really interesting if you were to look up the 2 pills I am trying out to master this disease.
Gimnema and billberry.
My goal is still to increase muscle size and I want to know what you have found in your experience with dealing with diabetics. Would it be advantageous or a waste of time for me to use suppliments such as creatine and whey protine in my diet(with my disease) and expect results?
I have heard that with diabetes it is very hard to lose weight and/or gain muscle mass.

Episode 5 - Blarenheit 451
It's a bird! It's a plane! No, actually it's just two brothers and their infinite box of goofs. This episode turned out pretty positive, despite spending a good amount of it talking about dead dogs, conquering their enemies, and how much they want to erase things from existence. On second thought...
Items this week: upstate farm deed, the weather calendar, and the letter of non-existence.

LOS ANGELES (CBS.MW) -- Technology shares fell on Tuesday after the Federal Reserve expressed concern about inflation and oil prices surged, adding to earlier declines on profit taking, and sending the Nasdaq down to its worst level since late November.
Amazon.com Inc. was pressured after an analyst downgraded the stock to "sell" on concerns about increasing competition.
The technology-laden Nasdaq Composite Index $COMPQ lost just over 44 points, or 2 percent, to close the session at 2,107. The closely-watched barometer of tech stocks, which gained more than 8.5 percent for 2004, has lost some 3 percent for the first two trading sessions of the New Year.
The Nasdaq 100 Index of leading nonfinancial issues $NDX gave up just under 32 points, or 2 percent, to end at 1571.
A summary of the Federal Open Market Committee's December 14 meeting on interest rates showed a number of its members were worried that a weaker dollar, higher energy prices and a slowdown in productivity growth may lead to higher prices. See full story.
Amazon AMZN, -1.84% lost as much as 7 percent after Smith Barney analyst Lanny Baker cut the brokerage's recommendation on shares of the Internet retailer to "sell" from "hold." Baker said Amazon faces higher spending on marketing and technology in order to protect its early lead in the online retailing market.
"Despite the vigor of e-commerce, we believe that increasing competition will limit Amazon's margin expansion possibilities, and near-term profit figures may not support a share price that has climbed 27 percent in just over two months," the analyst said. See full story.
The stock close down $2.38, or more than 5 percent, at $42.14.
Meanwhile, a survey by Nielsen//NetRatings, in conjunction with Goldman Sachs and Harris Interactive, found that online shoppers spent $23.2 billion between Nov. 1 and Dec. 26, up from $18.5 billion for the same holiday shopping period a year earlier.
Elsewhere among Internet-related stocks, eBay Inc. EBAY, -1.21% fell $2.80, or almost 2.5 percent, to $111.31; and Yahoo Inc. YHOO lost $1.60, or just over 4 percent, to $36.58.
Google Inc. GOOG, -0.96% gave up $8.21, or 4 percent, to $194.50 after reaching a new all-time high in Monday's session on upbeat analyst comments.
Dell declines on downgrade, chips stumble
In hardware, Dell Inc. DELL, +1.32% fell $1.27, or 3 percent, to $40.52 after a Raymond James analyst downgraded the stock to "outperform" from "strong buy," as it has approached analyst Robert Anastasi's 12-month price target of $46. See full story.
As shares of most computer makers slipped under water, Apple Computer AAPL, +0.24% added 65 cents, or 1 percent, to $63.94. The largest gathering of enthusiasts of the Apple's sleekly designed tech products, like the hugely popular iPod digital music player, will convene in San Francisco next week at the Macworld trade show. See full story.
Speculation about products that Apple may introduce at Macworld centers on a low-cost, flash-memory iPod and a $500 iMac computer that doesn't have a monitor. Such moves would put Apple in competition in the low-priced areas the company has historically avoided. See full story.
Gateway Inc. GTW pared 21 cents, or over 3.5 percent, to $5.64 and Hewlett-Packard HPQ, -1.34% lost 14 cents, or 0.7 percent, to $20.91.
Chip-related stocks were a pocket of particular weakness, with the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index SOX, -0.71% losing almost 14 points, or over 3 percent, to 410.
Shares of Intel Corp. INTC, -1.11%, the world's largest chip maker, lost 46 cents, or 2 percent, to $22.61 and those of rival Advanced Micro Devices AMD, +1.04% dropped $1.20, or 5.6 percent, to $20.21.

As the hatred for Obama the puppet grows. And a country tired of both wars. Isn't it funny how things work out? Cliff High of 'Half Past Human'. Predicted an 911 type of event. For the 5th of November, and he got it. Now that the shock of such an event settles in. What does the country, really have on it's hands. Was the amount of deaths and injuries and "Time" line, just coincidence? Just as 911 dragged the country into two unnecessary wars. Was this all a set up? Was Maj. Malik Hasan (13 letters), the real shooter, or? Was he set up, as the shooter? I'm not trying to say the event never happened, but. How does the country really know? The further the country gets away from 911. The more suspicions start to grow. I for one, smell a rat. Even on one of my favorite sites. (GodLikeProductions) Threads of hate, towards Muslims. Were allowed to be posted, immediately after the event. The same site that kicked me out. For derogatory remarks toward the Zionist. All this coming, as the puppet called Obama. Readies the country, on how many more troops will be sent into Afghanistan. Just as the Tonkin gulf, dragged America into Vietnam. And Pearl Harbor got America into WWII. Is this just one more lie? In a line of lies, told the American public?
First reports from Fort Hood Army base in Texas. Said their were three shooters. Then all of a sudden, their was only one shooter.(Kennedy assassination) And this lone gunman, took all these lives and was dead himself. As the day wore on. Like Roswell, the story keep changing. Now hours latter, the gunman was a Muslim. Not only was he a Muslim. He had poor reports about his work, at Walter Reed Hospital. We now supposedly know, he attended a Mosques, for daily prayer sessions. On one hand the public has been told. Maj. Malik Hasan. Wanted out of the military after 911. Then on the other hand. Their are reports, he told folks, the military was his life. Will the country and the World ever know the true story, behind the shootings? And unless you know someone. Who was an actual eye witness, to this tragic event. Their will be more and more doubts. Maj. Malik Hasan sets in a hospital from four gun shot wounds. Will he suddenly succumb to his wounds? What happens if he has a military type Court Martial? Always remember, ' dead men don't talk'. Just ask Timothy McVeigh or Lee Harvey Oswald. One quick added note about this event. GW Bush and his wife, were let in to see the troops after the attack. This from the same man. Who was part of all the deaths, to thousands of innocent, women and children, in both Afghanistan and Iraq. (The lies never stop coming, do they?)
From one strange event to another. Joseph Moshe an Israeli Mossad Microbiologist. You Tube, 'The Strange Case of Joseph Moshe and al'. Was seen in a video, being not only pepper sprayed by LA police. Then they then used a robot to smash in a window on his VW bug and gassed him. Being a trained Israeli Mossad agent. He withstood both gas attacks. Then he had to be physically removed from his vehicle. His crime, trying to warn the World, about depopulation attempts. Using the so called Swine flu inoculation. To kill billions of citizens World wide. Take the "Time" to see for yourself. This all got started when he supposedly called into a radio broadcast. The station is called, ' Republic Broadcasting Network'.
Hawaii, a Banana Republic, also known as Americas fiftieth state. And supposed birth place to America's current puppet president, Barack Obama. Recently declared, every islander must take the swine flu inoculation. A state who's leader apparently don't know. This was tried in other states and failed. Will attempt to enforce this ridiculous law. How would you even enforce such a law, is beyond me. This from the same state who says. It doesn't have to show Obama's birth certificate. Knowing damn well if their was such a birth certificate. It could stop all this debate over Obama rite to be president. I lived in Hawaii for 4 years. And everyone knows, the Japanese own most of the island anyway.
Recently Warren Buffet, purchased the largest railroad system in America. The Burlington and Santa Fe rail roads. A system who's rails are in need of great repair. Along with most of it's related equipment. Who would buy this broken down system, in their rite mind? Warren Buffet did, knowing he could get Obama the puppet. To put billions of tax payers dollars to repair the system. Saying the country needed a good rail system. Then when the NWO takes over. He has a virtual monopoly. On all train traffic from Texas to Illinois, out to California. This all falls in line with NAFTA. with Texas and New Orleans sea ports. He has a lock on cheap goods from China and the far east. Not to mention all the oil imports and by products. Little by little the NWO makes is calculated steps. This helps to insure shipping control of the food basket, in the Midwest. Do you think their is anyway to stop this march to total control? Not when things are done, rite in front of your eyes.
Saw a funny sight on the way to the store today. Three cop cars with three officers dealing with one homeless man, at a bus stop. Mean while the black kids are dealing drugs from my alley. And chem-trails are in the skies over head. Yea it's great to know, the country is in such great hands. While back at the ranch. Congress is getting ready this evening to vote on the Medical Bill. That could hand you a $25,000 fine and jail "Time". If you don't insure your self and family. Isn't great being American? Or as I said to a kid on a site. Isn't great not being American now? He was from Denmark and was more concern with rising ocean levels. bye

A seemingly revolving door of ethics scandals has left behind damaged organizations, damaged lives mired in financial and personal spoil, and a society skeptical of its enterprise establishments. Sison, A.J.G. & J. Fontrodona, 2012, The Common Good of the Firm in the Aristotelian-Thomistic custom", Business Ethics Quarterly, 22(2): 211-246. Such code of conduct is just not solely related to local or nationwide business but also international enterprise significantly multinational companies. A second—and extra vital—that means of ethics in line with the dictionary is that this: Ethics is the examine of morality". Thus, business practices must follow a certain common enterprise ethics precept.
Allowing staff to take part in managerial resolution-making might lower the tempo of decision-making, because it requires giving many staff an opportunity to make their voices heard (Hansmann 1996). Margolis, J.D. & J.P. Walsh, 2003, Misery Loves Companies: Rethinking Social Initiatives by Business", Administrative Science Quarterly, forty eight(2): 268-305. Business ethics thought-about to be the same for businessmen from different nations.
According to him, bluffing in negotiations is permissible as a result of business has its personal special set of rules and bluffing is permissible in line with these rules. Corporate social responsibility is about caring for the workers, giving back to the community, and being financially, environmentally, and socially responsible. Discussing ethics is at all times related as a result of it is about how human relates himself/herself to other fellow human, society, and setting.
Therefore, all employees must pay attention to and act in full accordance with policies and procedures (that is true, whether or not insurance policies and procedures are for ethics programs or personnel administration). Considered solely as a normative enterprise, business ethics—like many areas of applied ethics—draws from quite a lot of disciplines, together with ethics, political philosophy, economics, psychology, law, and public coverage. Business ethicists generally concern themselves with the actions of non-revenue organizations, but more generally give attention to for-profit organizations.
Perusahaan meyakini prinsip bisnis yang baik adalah bisnis yang beretika, yakni bisnis dengan kinerja unggul dan berkesinambungan yang dijalankan dengan mentaati kaidah-kaidah etika sejalan dengan hukum dan peraturan yang berlaku. A judgment about a person's moral accountability for wrongdoing is a judgment that the individual acted intentionally and so needs to be blamed, punished, or forced to pay restitution.
