Nature holds many secrets to our health. Unfortunately, many of those herbs go undetected. Considering the surface of the Earth, every year, scientists discover thousands of new herbs and plants, which features they are yet to explore. The cause for any illness may depend on person's lifestyle, genetics, environmental toxins, and infections. You can never determine the actual cause because we live in a world where everything is polluted. But, what we can do is to isolate the stress and try to prevent many illnesses by using medicinal herbs. One cup of tea every morning won't take you more than five minutes. Make sure to plan your life and adopt some healthy habits in your everyday routine. So, here are some herbs which can be more efficient than any pharmaceutical drug out there.
Berberine is a compound found in goldenseal, Oregon grapes, Chinese goldthread and in many berry plants. Berberine has been used in India and China for many years now for many illnesses. And it can be compared to many pharmaceutical drugs. The main benefits of this compound are: it regulates the blood sugar as well as cholesterol, it reduces inflammation, it's rich in antioxidants, and it has antimicrobial properties. But, many people have been wondering, does this compound actually work?
Based on some study, scientists compared the effects of Berberine to prescribed medication. In this case, they wanted to the patients who are suffering from an elevated cholesterol, and the results were stunning. Berberine managed to decrease the cholesterol by 31%, more than any standard medicine. By using Berberine and drugs together, they even got a better result; the cholesterol decreased by 37%.
Another study explored patients who suffered from a heart failure, resulting in weak muscle. 156 patients who have been tested, used Berberine for two years, the study showed improvement in heart strength, they were able to walk sooner, and there were fewer deaths. Not a bad performance for one herb.
Bergamot is a plant that looks like a lemon, and it originates from Southern Italy. You may be familiar with this herb because its oil is often to tea or perfume. Like berberine, this herb has shown an incredible progress with patients who are struggling with blood sugar, inflammation and vessel activity.
Many scientists have confirmed the positive benefits of this plant on a human body. In a recent study, 77 patients, who were suffering from high cholesterol, and were subjected to the research. They were divided into two groups; one group was taking only a prescribed drug, while other was combining medicine with Bergamot. The group which used mixed method showed better progress and their level of cholesterol was reduced. Apart from this, Bergamot managed to improve their blood vessels. This plant also has the power to balance the body weight and help you lose some pounds. If this doesn't give it extraordinary healing properties, then we don't know what does.

Online shopping is a $26 billion dollar market (I didn't do much research here beyond a simple MSN search, but we can all agree the market is huge). As more shops open up online, customers are being provided with more and more choices on sites to shop. With the increase in choices, shopping portals are being increasingly valuable, especially to those who are less tech-saavy. Is online shopping one of your passions? C# too? Do you like to "break" things? Well, then, come help us out!
Here are a few openings in my discipline:

Most weeks I cook a whole chicken. It's an affordable way to eat chicken and it's great to have the leftover meat for things like this chicken salad. And yes, chicken salad can still be nice and moist without mayonnaise!
4-6 cups shredded chicken
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon salt
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 head of lettuce
1 onion or two shallot cloves
1 tablespoon butter
1 tomato
Salad Dressing
1 tablespoon pesto (optional)
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
I strip all the leftover meat off the bones and put it into a bowl. I put the bones into a pot and set aside to make chicken broth. Mix the canola oil, salt, and lemon juice in with chicken. I want to taste the lemon juice when I eat a sample of the chicken.
Then I chop the onion or shallot and cook it on medium heat for about 10 minutes. I want the onion soft and brown but not burnt.
While the onion is cooking, I clean a head of lettuce and put about half of it in with the chicken. I save the rest for a quick salad later in the week like this one here. I chop the tomato and add it to the chicken. And finally, I make the salad dressing. I could really do any type of salad dressing but I like to use my homemade pesto if there is some already made in the fridge. The salad dressing should be more on the olive oil side of taste rather than the vinegar side because of the chicken. Sometimes I need to drizzle more olive oil over the top of the salad. I also mix in extra salt at the end if it isn't salty enough. This salad needs more of a salty taste than a typical salad without chicken.
And then I stir in my caramelized onions and the salad is done.

Luna: old, skinny, hungry, abandoned
Name: Luna
Gender: F
Breed: Perdigueiro (Portuguese pointer)
Age: d-o-b: ~2008
Size: medium (18kg, 50cm)
Others: dewormed, vaccinated, sterilised
Luna, when she came to us, was very skinny. She must have been long on the street, scavenging for food. She was caught by someone when trying to get into a hen house. She was starving….. This person brought her to the shelter (and she actually wanted to exchange her for a puppy, but we just took in Luna and we did not give the puppy – it was going to be a guard dog leading miserable life).
Poor Luna was tired, exhausted and very hungry. But at the same time very sweet and very gentle… She is another old dog that will stay in the shelter for the rest of her life… It is better than on the street but it is not a home. Old dogs need home and special affection. Not many people want to adopt old dogs though… And she is sooo loving. Just look at the movies.

Tigreza: happy and bouncy!
Name: Tigreza
Gender: F
Age: d-o-b: March 2016
Size: big (25kg, 55cm)
Others: dewormed, vaccinated, sterilised
Lovely Tigreza was brought to the shelter by her owner. People don't get attached to their dogs, they don't consider them family members.
She is a lovely youngster, full of energy, super friendly and very affectionate. She also gets along with all other dogs.

It's easy to overlook the importance of being a good case interviewer when preparing for management consulting interviews. Since you'll need to give almost as many cases as you take, you and your fellow applicants need to be highly capable at simulating the real experience, and facilitating opportunities to improve. Here are some tips to be a better case interviewer.
Take Good Notes
Interviewees often express sincere gratitude at the thoroughness of my feedback–it's a nice compliment, but I wish that they received this sort of feedback more regularly. I typically return two or more pages of bulleted notes on what the candidate did well, and what he or she can improve on. Since I'm giving interviews over the phone, I also include what I think the candidate wrote for his or her frameworks so that he candidate can gauge how well he or she explained it.
This sort of feedback should be closer to the norm than the exception. You should be writing or typing as much as you can to evaluate the candidate's performance to the best of your ability. You will learn much more quickly how a good case is done, and the candidate will get a much better picture of how he or she is performing.
If you are new at cases just tell the candidate what you think was good or bad. Your thoughts of what was good and bad may be incorrect, but that will give the candidate a chance to explain him or herself to you, providing valuable information for your future cases.
Since two pages can be a lot of feedback for the interviewee to handle, you should also take it upon yourself as the case interviewer to recommend two or three primary things for the candidate to practice. Try to figure out what would help the candidate improve most quickly, or try to identify the most important skills that the candidate is lacking.
Improving your feedback mechanism is the single greatest thing you can do to be a better case interviewer, and it will enhance your case interview skills almost as quickly as doing a case yourself.
Study The Basics
Before doing or giving your first case, it's helpful to have at least read the basics. You should know how a case is run, its basic processes, what it's testing, etc. Your school may have a club that explains the basics. BYU even has a decent guide on how to get started with videos and drills to practice. Although there is no substitute for practicing with other people, drilling specific skills on your own is imperative.
Know The Candidate's Objective
Before you start a case, you should ask the candidate what he or she is working to improve. If you know what the candidate is working on, you can give more targeted feedback much more easily. If your candidate doesn't have anything that he or she is working on, ask the candidate what problems he or she encountered in his or her last case. Candidates should almost always be working on something.
Adjust Your Difficulty
When you're being the case interviewer for a candidate's first case, you should expect to "hold their hand" through most of it. Give them a chance to shine by not giving things too easily, but make judgments about what is best learned by struggling through it and what is best learned through explanation.
When giving a case to a high performer, give them a hard time. Hold back pieces of information until they ask for it, and be more willing to push back on their conclusions. Give them harder cases, and be more nit-picky in your feedback.
Give Push Back
Giving good push-back takes a skilled and knowledgeable interviewer. Good push-back will challenge assumptions that the candidate makes, force the candidate to defend his or her position on a debatable item, or help the candidate correct a mistake. To give good push-back, you need to pay close attention to what the candidate says and pick apart the logic behind his or her statements.
Use The Same Case
Try to find a case that other people aren't using and give it to the many people you're practicing with. As you give the same case over and over you will be come more familiar with the tricks contained in the case and get a better idea of what approaches are most effective. You'll have an easier time giving feedback and you can spend most of your mental energy on providing feedback instead of trying to follow the case.
Write Your Own Cases
Writing your own case has many benefits. Not only does it nearly guarantee that no one else will be giving your case, but you'll also be intimately familiar with it from the beginning. Creating your own cases also helps you gain an intuitive sense for what cases are trying to test (see my post about the "Essence of the Case Interview" for more details on that). Writing a case is a great way to help you "think like an interviewer" when you're trying to be an interviewer.
Ask For Feedback
You hopefully always ask for feedback on how well you performed as a candidate in a case, but it's a good idea to seek for feedback as a case interviewer. You might even consider recording your feedback as an interviewer, but that might be more effort than it's worth. Just try to make general improvements and seek general feedback on what kind of interviewer you are.
Being a good case interviewer is just as important and helpful as being a good interviewee. Put a bit of thought into providing meaningful feedback and helping your "candidate" learn, and you will both progress more quickly in your case interview skills.
Keep seeking truth.

When you think of Gold and Indians, the first image that probably pops up in your head is that of Bappi Lahiri. Well, remove that memory now and try to think that image never came into your head.
A couple of weeks back, I went out shopping with my mother who wanted to buy something for her friend who was retiring. And what did she choose to buy? Silver. I couldn't quite understand the Indian obsession with buying/gifting Gold and Silver and an argument ensued in the shop, about the sensibilities behind buying something that you very rarely use anyways.
And here's the conversation that followed.
Me : Why are you buying this piece of silver?
Mom : It is a silver lamp da. They'll find it useful. They can light it every day in their house.
Me : Oh really? How many Silver Lamps have we been gifted?
Mom : That's there da. Quite a few I guess.
Me : And where are they? I haven't ever seen them at home?
Mom : Illa da. It's not really safe these days. They are all safely locked up in the bank locker.
Me : Wow. And you expect your friend not to do the same with this one you are buying them?
Mom : <Nearly agitated> See, don't hurt my sentiments.
Me : Now this is a sentimental buy and not a useful one? What will you do with the Silver stuff that we were gifted? Don't they all blacken in the locker?
Mom : Well, some of them do. These shops have exchange offers no. We come back and get it exchanged for something new at a minimal cost.
**Salesman in the Gold Shop gives a vigorous nod and talks about how high a price they give in their exchange schemes**
Me : Wow. So someone gives you a gift in the expectation that you use it. You put it in the locker to keep it safe, and then when it blackens, you exchange it in these shops that give you an Extra-ordinary price! And buy something that you gift to someone else, who probably will do the same. I see only one beneficiary in this whole process. This sales guy and his shop!
**And the sales guy gives me a wry smile to indicate I am a mad guy to be arguing against the Holy Indian Sentiment of buying Gold & Silver**
The argument in the shop ended but I kept probing my mom and dad, and a few others on why people buy gold! And here are some of the arguments I got.
"Gold is mandatory for a girl's marriage. So, I have started buying up now. What if the Gold Price increases later?"
What if the guy turns out to be good and doesn't want gold. What if Gold is no longer the in-thing then, and people want platinum or diamonds or whatever. What if the rate of gold hits a rut by then and you end up getting it a lot cheaper then. And more importantly why the hell is Gold mandatory for a girl's marriage. If at all you want to shower your love on her, give her and her husband something that they'll actually use no? Not something that they'll keep safely in the locker and use when their kid reaches marriage-able age!
"Gold is a form of showing love."
What do people do with the silver and gold articles that you gift them. Put them in a locker and keep them safe, and then pass it on to their kids. What do they do. Wait till they start getting bad, come back to the jewel shops, return them and buy something new and put it back in the locker hoping for some fine day when they can do a Bappi da impression or buy something else to gift someone else!
"Having gold is auspicious. That too buying Gold on Akshaya Tritiya means wealth will flow throughout the year in our house"
And then you laugh at today's generations who 'celebrate' Mothers Day, Fathers Day and XYZ Day. Are you sure this isn't one of those more elaborate ancient versions of the 'Archies-Hallmark Holidays' like Rose Day, Teddy bear day and whatever crap? Isn't this whole brouhaha around Akshaya Tritiya like those ones around the Special Discount seasons when sales get low. Because there aren't enough marriages happening in that time, and gold sales may plummet?
"Gold is a form of savings/investment."
Well, if your intention is to save money or investment, then do some actual investment no. Why not actually save or invest by putting the money in a bank or in a mutual fund/stock market or in the worst case one of those Fixed Deposit schemes run by Nationalised Banks and Post Offices? Or if you want to invest by buying something, buy something that you might actually use and is of value to you no.
And last but certainly the worst! "When you wear gold to marriage, you show you are doing good. That your family is treating you well"
So, if you wear gold when you go to a marriage, you display that things are going well. That you are well off. And want to flaunt your excesses through dazzling gold jewels. Why live for the society or to create a perception that you are well off, and can buy gold.
And today the Indian gold obsession has manifested itself in multiple forms. EMI schemes to save up gold by the time your daughter is of 'marriageable' age! Buy gold at today's rates in the future. Gold SIPs. Gold this, Gold that and Gold what not!
And question all these with your parents or elders, they will say 'You won't understand now'. Next stage 'As if you not buying it as a single person is going to change the society'.
And the final bombshell: 'Won't you ask for gold when you get married'
Well, why the hell would I!

Strange World of Online Commerce
I recently Googled my full name and was shocked and amazed when lots of online book selling sites came up hawking MY book! I had never attempted to contact any of these sellers and have yet to see a single penny in royalties (as of this date).
I was also stunned that there were lots of other people selling copies of Urban Dada that they had somehow obtained - including one dude in Australia on Ebay for AU$40!
I guess any publicity is good publicity, but I sure wish folks would let me know if they liked my photos! If you visit this site you can leave a message for me. I would particularly like to hear what you think of the photos and the concept I am using. Be honest but constructive, as I would like to get a sense of your impressions. Do you see what I see?
A second, updated version of the Urban Dada book is in the works and will be available in a different size and with better paper and new photos. I will tell everyone I can when it is published!

Former supermodel, Janice Dickinson, recently appeared in public wearing much revealing top which was leaving nothing for imagination. The paparazzi did not leave the chance go waste rather took full advantage and clicked the aged model's pics. Janice, 57, tried to rewind her supermodel era back by wearing the sea-through top. She was spotted outside a nail salon in Beverly Hills area
Dickinson, former America's Next Top Model, came out in public wearing a sheer lace trimmed vest top which gave the viewers and passerbys the full opportunity to enjoy the heat. She was wearing a bra beneath the top. Janice was looking damn heart-hitting with this sea-through top and red jeans. The mother of two claims to be a real contender for the top notch models of today's time.
Well, guys…did you enjoy watching this age-old babe who once ruled the scene and now she again seems to be stepping into the field (as her this action shows the same)?

We are committed not just to meeting together on Sundays, but to getting out and loving our cities and showing the love, hope and goodness of God to everyone we can in whatever ways we can. We believe we are blessed to be a blessing.
If you'd like to get involved in any of our community action teams, fill in a 'I'm here to build' leaflet at the Sales Desk on Sundays or email in to email@example.com
As well as supporting the Trauma Recovery Centre and Christians Against Poverty, here are some of the things we love to get up to...
For many years we have run teams who visit the homeless and give them a healthy meal, a chance just to talk and an opportunity to receive prayer. We love feeding the poor and needy and stopping for the one. If you would like to get involved in this area of church just pop a note with your details in the post box found on the sales table at the back of church and someone from the CAT department will get in touch.
We collect non-perishable food items from the congregation each week in the foyer at our services throughout the year. This food is then taken to our offices where a team put them into food parcels. These parcels are then given to some of the neediest families in Bath. The previous couple of Christmas's we were able to provide special Christmas hampers to about 70 families. Why not add something to your shopping trolley that would be a great addition to a meal or treat?
Each year at Christmas we give away to some of the most needy families in our area the presents their children are asking for at Christmas. If you would like to join in with this just chat to your small group facilitator who will let you know how you can get involved.
We're regularly contacted to help people with practical projects in their homes, such as painting and decorating and gardening. Our small groups are great at getting involved and we'll send in an army of volunteers in order to bless those in our community!
We take donations of new clothes from the people in church which we are then able to redistribute through our clothes project. Through this project we are able to help provide clothing for people who need a new start.
We have a team of people who visit a Bristol Prison to help the chaplaincy team with their Sunday services. We provide Bibles for the inmates, we chat with and pray for inmates where it is needed and help by providing muscians to play in the band alongside some inmates as we seek Jesus together. Its been an incredible privilige to partner with this work as over 100 inmates have given their lives to Jesus in recent months while we have been visiting this incredible ministry.

ATC Williams is a consulting engineering firm working in the mining industry. A Synergy Practice Management client since 2009, the company has just under 100 employees across offices in Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Chile and Peru. ATC Williams adopted Synergy Cloud Services earlier this year, we interviewed Synergy administrator Elaine Fisher about how the cloud is making a difference.
Total Synergy first launched its cloud services add-on product in 2011. It was designed to offer Synergy Practice Management users the option of keeping a back up of their Synergy data in the cloud, and provide an online application for staff to enter timesheets and expenses. For users, this meant having the ability to use smartphones, tablets or any internet connected device to enter time and expenses, look up contacts and project notes, and it also afforded businesses the peace of mind knowing their critical project financial data was backed up. This was, and is, a free service for Synergy clients.
We're now about to reach the point where 50 percent of Synergy clients use Synergy Cloud Services. That means over 200 architecture and engineering businesses – approximately 5000 users – have added cloud to their business technology mix.
We wanted to dig a little deeper into the motivations and benefits in adopting Synergy Cloud Services and spoke to ATC Williams' Elaine Fisher – the only person we know with "Synergy" in her job title (Synergy Administrator), which is pretty cool – about how it had made a difference.
ATC Williams is a consulting engineering firm working in the mining industry. A Synergy Practice Management client since 2009, the company has just under 100 employees across offices in Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Chile and Peru.
ATC Williams uses a number of elements of Synergy Practice Management – including timesheets, expenses and the Outlook email plugin – but their main focus with Synergy is tracking project costs relying on earned valuation (understanding how much projects have earned including both invoiced work and the projected value of uninvoiced work completed to date). Elaine says she has spent a lot of time creating custom reports for individual project managers so they have their own important information in their dashboards. Working closely with directors and project managers to keep on top of invoicing, project budgets and reporting, she also chases late timesheets and expenses, and ensures all project related costs have been entered correctly within the relevant billing periods.
Like many professional services businesses, an area the company had been struggling with was in getting the project teams to put time and expenses into the system. Elaine said one of the biggest issues in this regard had been relying on a VPN which continually had connection issues.
"The connection to our VPN was often slow and intermittent," she said.
"The guys would end up emailing or texting their timesheets to me and I'd have to manually enter them to ensure we got it into the system.
"Having the cloud app has really helped everyone to ensure they can enter their own timesheets and expenses – along with accompanying notes – on smartphones, iPads or laptops in site offices. We've found that the younger staff find the web application more intuitive.
"As long as there's an internet connection they can easily get in through a browser. It's also been great for the teams in Peru and Chile."
Elaine said there were some minor concerns in the company about adopting cloud, but these were overcome quite quickly once the benefits were made clear.
"Because of the different age groups, some of the older guys who are a bit more set in their ways perhaps had a bit of fear and uncertainty about the new technology and level of security," she said.
Another area where the cloud has helped ATC Williams is in the help files and training webinars.
"[Synergy] is such a brilliant package with so many features that you just can't possibly teach everyone what they need to know in a couple of days," Elaine says.
"One of the problems I have is trying to communicate all the new things that are continually developed in Synergy out to the team. But we've found the online webinars and videos in the help files have been extremely valuable... I get new staff to watch them, so they can get their grounding in the basics, then they can come and see me for for training on how we use the software internally in each office. The webinars are a fantastic resource."
Elaine says the key benefits of using Synergy Cloud Services at ATC Williams have been mobility, ease of access and time saved. So does this mean the company is focusing on cloud for the future of the business?
"We had, and have, all of the usual concerns about cloud, like where the data is stored, security and so on," she says.
"I think it's unlikely we'll be putting the company financial data in the cloud any time soon... personally, I think going further into the cloud will just be an evolutionary step in the business. There's definitely an interest to understand how all of our technology can benefit the company, and how we can get the most out of it.
"We even had concerns when first looking at Synergy on desktop in 2009, so it's really just about becoming aware of how much easier it would be in using the right technology for the goals we have and how it will best work for us."

Live Events For The People
In this age when video conferencing has come to the palms of our hands, not to mention our laptops, desktops, and tablets, it is tempting to be dismissive of live events. Who wants the hassle and cost of flying across the country and staying in a hotel when we can see each other wherever we happen to be? But attending events live and in the flesh is a totally different animal from online interactions. Nothing beats meeting in person, and techies more than most should get on the plane and go to events, if only to build stronger connections with their peers!

Duchovny says "all the principals are on board," for another movie, including Anderson and "X-Files" creator Chris Carter. He says "it's really up to Twentieth Century Fox at this point."
Twentieth Century Fox has not commented on whether there are plans for another movie.

Pennsylvania based bluegrass band Remington Ryde has signed with Pinecastle Records for their latest project, A STORYTELLER'S MEMORY, to be released in November.
The album is a tribute to the late bluegrass artist James King and includes some of King's most beloved songs like: "Thirty Years of Farmin'," "Bed by the Window," "A Few Old Memories," "Leavin'," and a song bandleader Ryan Frankhouser wrote and dedicated to King's memory titled "Mr. King." The album also includes a bonus track "It's a Cold Cold World" sung by King in 1989.
In reference to the newest album, Frankhouser said,
"We are very honored to be a part of the Pinecastle family. We can't wait for the public to hear the new album. To all of us in Remington Ryde, James King was one of the greatest singers of all time and we want to help his music live on forever."
Bluegrass crowd-pleasers, Remington Ryde has been touring the United States and Canada for twelve years. The band performs over 100 shows each year. Their distinct sound and old-time flair can be attributed to the bluegrass-rich area of Pennsylvania from which they hail. Over the last two years, the band has received five SPBGMA award nominations. Founding member Frankhouser provides his talents on guitar and lead vocals, and his showmanship and chemistry with the audience quickly turns fans into family. The band also benefits from the musical talents of Billy Lee Cox (played with the Country Gentlemen and Charlie Moore) on banjo, Warren Blair (played with the original Bluegrass Cardinals) on fiddle, Stanley Efaw on mandolin and Richard Egolf on bass.
In 2007, Frankhouser took a leap of faith by founding the Remington Ryde Bluegrass Festival. The event has become one of the fastest growing bluegrass festivals in the country. It is held annually the first week of July in Centre Hall, Pennsylvania.
Look for A STORYTELLER'S MEMORY to be released on November 3rd.

Many of us ignorant folk know little about nail-art. Some of us don't even shape of our nails, much to the horror of the always-glamorous fashion police. But every once in a while, it is great to indulge in some serious nail-care and maybe even give those fingertips a cool makeover. If that's what's on your mind right now, you can shape your nails in any one of these awesome nail shapes – even if you don't slap on a coat of polish, they are sure to look stunning!
This is the best shape for those who prefer to keep their nails short and unfussy on account of hand-based work. Also, since such nails have no ridges, they chip less easily – perfect for those with brittle nails.
The most popular of nail shapes, especially amongst the well-maintained dames, square nails are perfect for French manicures. Most women with such nails keep them long and perfectly polished for a chic, sophisticated look.
The squoval shape is a fusion of rounded and squared styles. Long square nails with rounded, inward-curving sides have a delicate, feminine appeal that is perfect for those special occasions. Make sure to apply polish with squoval nails so their curved contours are properly highlighted.
More elongated and tapered than simple, rounded nails, the almond shape is great for small hands and short fingers. Almond-shaped nails create the illusion of length though achieving this look requires much filing. This may weaken the nails so make sure you apply loads of nail cream if you're sporting this shape.
Combining the best of rounded, square and almond styles, oval nails look effortlessly chic. They are simple, elegant, easy to maintain and usually quite strong; a good option for office-goers who need to look good and be efficient at work as well.
With stiletto-heel-like pointy edges, such nails are very long and somewhat impractical on an everyday basis. But if you are looking to elongate your fingers and are capable of managing these talon-like beauties, go ahead – they look super-glam!
This shape is very similar to the stiletto style, with the only change being a squared top-edge. When the stiletto nail loses its point, it becomes somewhat less lethal and more practical. Still, this style is better kept for a day o-two only, just before a cut/manicure when nails are very long.
This shape is basically a shorter version of the stiletto shape. Equally pointy and chic, mountain-peak nails are just more manageable and less likely to chip/injure others.
As the name suggests, flared nails are narrow towards the nail bed and widely outward growing on the edges. This shape has been very controversial with many nail technicians refusing to do it on account of such filing being a bad manicure practice. Still, if they look good…
With this shape, the nail is supposed to resemble the slanted top of a lipstick. This shape is difficult to sculpt and best left to professionals. Also, the lipstick shape is perfect for theme-based painted nails so they may be just what you need for a party night!
It goes without saying what this shape of nail is like – an arrowhead, of course. It is made by filing the sides in an inwardly curving manner on the sides, followed by the creating of a pointed dome on top. If you're not very good at filing, it's better to get arrowheads at a nail salon.
When the arrowhead shape is used on very long nails, the style is referred to as "Edge". This is a difficult shape to both maintain as well as pull off. But if you long nails and want to try something fancy, edge is a good option!

Employers are using non-compete agreements with their employees in greater numbers than they used to. These agreements prevent present and former employees from working with competitors. They also limit the chance that private employer information or trade secrets are given to another company.
As long as non-compete clauses in employment contracts meet acceptable standards, courts will generally uphold them. Employees may face legal penalties if they violate a non-compete clause. These penalties include money damages or an injunction that prevents further violations.
Along with the violating employee, the company that hires her may also face penalties. Any company that helps an employee violate a non-compete clause may have to pay damages. Courts don't want companies to prosper from breaches of contracts. Many countries don't favor non-compete clauses. They impose restrictions on when they can be used.
There are several reasons why countries may not favor non-compete clauses. Employment contracts are entered into at the start of the relationship between the employee and the employer. Employers have most of the power. Employees have very little leverage to negotiate or bargain for a contract without a non-compete clause.
It's also difficult for an employee to think about future employment when she starts a new job. She's usually concentrating on making a good start with her current employer. Non-compete clauses make it difficult for employees to gain future employment or become self-employed.
The Principles of Non-Compete Agreements
Countries differ in how their laws are written to deal with non-compete clauses. However, there are certain key principles that are very similar across the world. Examples of some of these principles include:
- Reasonableness Rule: A non-compete clause in a contact must be reasonable in order for it to be considered valid. Courts balance an employer's interest in its information and resources with the right of an employee to work someplace else. Any contract with a non-compete clause will be examined closely by a court to make sure that it's narrowly tailored to protect the employer's business interests. If the clause unduly restricts the employee from other opportunities, it'll usually be struck down.
- Independent Consideration: Some states require the employee to receive independent consideration before it'll recognize a non-compete clause. This means that the employee received something from the employer for agreeing to the clause. The most common example is an employee agreeing to the clause in exchange for employment. The contract is entered into at the start of the work relationship. If an employer wants the employee to sign a non-compete contract after the relationship began, in these states it would have to offer some other benefit, such as a promotion or raise.
- Duration: Courts usually require that non-compete contracts don't last too long. The time period must be limited. Courts will examine all the circumstances when determining if a non-compete clause has too long of a time frame. Usually a time period of one to two years will be considered valid. Anything over that may be struck down by the court. Courts are normally more lenient if the buyer of a business is attempting to prevent the old owner from competing. They allow equal parties to negotiate the time frame.
- Distance: Courts will also check to see if the geographic limits of the contract are reasonable. Non-compete clauses shouldn't restrict employees from working in other geographic areas that won't affect the former employer. If the clause is too broad in distance, courts may limit the clause to only a small area or strike down the whole thing.
- Blue Pencil Rule: The blue pencil rule means that the court has the authority to modify a non-competitive contract if it's too limiting. It can then enforce the modified contract. However, some states prohibit this rule. Courts in these states must hold that a non-competitive contract is either valid or invalid.
- Liability for New Employers: New employers that hire employees with non-competitive contracts can be sued for damages . Employees should always inform potential employers about any non-competitive agreements so that they're not surprised later.
Employers should always be assisted by attorneys when drafting any non-compete contracts. They'll be able to help employers tailor the contracts to help protect business interests without them being too restrictive. A non-compete contract that's invalid is the same as having none at all.
Questions for Your Attorney
- Does an employer have the ability to force all of its employees to sign a non-compete agreement that lasts for life? What about 20 years?
- Even if an employee signs a non-compete agreement, can he still compete against the employer if he thought he was wrongfully fired?
- If I sign a non-compete contract, can I still work for a competitor if the new job is different than my old job?

Executive Software of North America v. U.S. District Court Case Brief
Summary of Executive Software of North America v. U.S. District Court
Facts: A worker who was fired brought federal and state claims for discrimination and the district court remanded the state law claims.
Issue: Can a district court look beyond the express exceptions listed in section 1367 (C) in declining jurisdiction over pendant state claims?
Rule: A court can deny supplemental jurisdiction over pendant state law claims only if one of the exceptions of section 1367 (c) is satisfied.
Analysis: The district court failed to identify exceptional, compelling reasons for declining jurisdiction. The court must conclude that declining jurisdiction best accommodates the values of economy, convenience, fairness and comity.

Dear goji berries, maca, spirulina, and lucuma: congrats on your much-deserved moment in the spotlight. Ever since you burst onto the health-food scene beaming in colorful hues and tasting the way no one's ever tasted before, all of a sudden, bananas seemed so basic.
Don't get us wrong. We love all of you new-school superfoods—A LOT. But it's about time we bring back some of the old-school ones that have been cast aside for long enough. Here are five that will always have a place in a clean-eating kitchen, plus new ways to enjoy them.
Behind the peel is a fruit full of fiber—particularly pectin, which can help slow digestion and keep you fuller longer. Bananas are also a prebiotic-rich food—meaning they can feed the good bacteria in the gut that keeps everything moving. Their high potassium levels may also lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke. They're rich in vitamin B6 that can protect against type II diabetes and strengthen the nervous system. We all know no smoothie is the same without a little bit of creamy banana, so give them the props they deserve.
Try: Gluten-Free Banana Bread, Banana Whole Wheat Waffles, Green Smoothie Bowl
We get it—everyone loves kale. But don't forget about its cruciferous cousin. Broccoli is sometimes underrated, but it's no joke when it comes to beneficial nutrients—every serving packs in calcium, fiber, and antioxidants like vitamins C and A and beta carotene. In a small study of 81 diabetics, consuming 10 grams of broccoli powder daily showed a reduction in cholesterol and triglycerides—an effect that could be combative against heart disease. Broccoli's polyphenols (plant-derived compounds that have antioxidant properties) may also slow the growth of cancer cells. Good thing it's so versatile: it works well in various dishes, like an Asian stir-fry, sprinkled into a salad, or as a roasted side dish.
Try: Pan-Roasted Broccolini, Beef and Broccolini
Speaking of cruciferous veggies, throw cabbage into the mix, too. Like broccoli, its phytonutrients—chemicals that occur naturally in plants to protect them from germs, fungi, bugs, and other threats—may also stave off cancer. The most prominent are glucosinolates. These contain sulfur (hence the bitter taste), which helps maintain keratin, a protein that promotes healthy hair, skin, and nails, in the body. Cabbage's high vitamin K content may also optimize mental function and concentration, as well as defend against Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
Try: Braised Cabbage with Pears, Yellow Curry with Rainbow Vegetables
How many people these days sit down to spoon out the bittersweet flesh of a grapefruit? It's kind of a retro image in an era of Instagram-worthy smoothie bowls, right? But give grapefruit a chance, especially if you're looking to drop a few pounds. A small study of 91 obese patients found that eating half of a fresh grapefruit before meals could lead to significant weight loss, as well as improved insulin resistance. Not to mention, it's got tons of vitamins C and A.
Try: Watercress-Grapefruit Salad, Broiled Grapefruit with Ginger and Honey
Okay, it probably doesn't get more old-school than this. Shriveled up old prunes may have an uncool rep for being a staple in grandma's pantry, but think of them as what they really are—dried plums—and suddenly they seem a little more alluring. The anthocyanins that give them their beautiful hue are anti-inflammatory and anti-carcinogenic, and could potentially prevent cardiovascular disease and diabetes, as well as control obesity—all due to their antioxidant activity. And hey, the high levels of vitamins A, K, and B6, riboflavin, niacin, magnesium, potassium, and manganese aren't too shabby, either! That's a lot for such a tiny, forgotten fruit.
Try: Sprinkling them atop salads, or baked into cookies or bread
Don't sleep on these throwback superfoods. You can have your goji berries and eat these, too.

After successes in business development and operations with Pest Control, Grant brought his years of experience to our Specialist Hygiene business at the end of 2012. When not chasing his football team around the country, Grant spends most of his free time at the weekends out and about with his 3 children.
The busy working environment is never the same from day to day. There are great opportunities for promotion and development. Due to the size of the company there is a need to work within policies and procedures, which is an area I was accustomed to in the military. This helped me settle into my new role with ease.
I served in the Royal Navy for 20 years and retired as a Chief Petty Officer (Warfare Specialist). I had numerous appointments including operational units and instructional duties, with all my managerial skill sets being transferable from the Navy into Rentokil. I had strong communication and instructional skills which have also assisted me in my current role. My ability to problem solve and manage large teams has also proved very effective within the business.

School of Hotel & Restaurant Management
Turning Trash into Treasure
By Kelly Johnston, FCB Student Writer
Going green is increasingly popular in light of topics like climate change and air pollution. Most associate the thought of going green with sacrifice–giving up something for the greater good of the earth. Cori Cusker, coordinator of NAU's annual Eco Fashion Show, sees things differently.
"Being sustainable doesn't have to be all doom and gloom. Sometimes it's just a matter of re-framing and re-purposing," says Cori Cusker.
The objective is simple–take old clothing or items that are destined for the landfill and make it new. Students design and construct wearable garments from conventionally "unwearable" items, or put together a look on a budget from thrifted clothing items. Past designs have included a gown made of playing cards and a crop top made from a computer keyboard. It's the creative sustainability element that makes this fashion show different from any other, and traditional fashion design skills are not always required.
"Not everyone has sewing skills. We all have the ability to think differently and look creatively at the things in our lives and to create ways to re-purpose them," Cusker says.
The event is given the full fashion show treatment with lights, music, and a runway.
Cusker has taken on two interns to aid in the planning and execution of the event. Ashley Phillis, one of the two event planning leads, sees the show as a way to sharpen her leadership skills and prepare for a career as a visual designer.
"My partner and I delegate tasks to a committee of six Eco-Reps. We plan most aspects of the show, including setup, decorations, performances, activities, and judges. My goal is to create a fun and exciting experience for both participants and audience members. If people have a great time, they are more likely to remember more of the sustainable lifestyle choices that we will be presenting," Phillis says.
The 2016 show kicked off NAU's Earth Week celebration on April 18th and included entertainment by student groups, giveaways, and a recycled art show. The event was free and open to the public.
