The Universidad Santo Tomás in its section Tunja, inspired by the Dominican socio-humanistic and integral thinking, requires from its formation a specific university profile for its students and graduates that responds in an ethical and responsible way to the challenges of the new globalized society, with the purpose of mainstreaming all knowledge with the Humanist component.
The dynamics of the Humanities is a joint responsibility, which commits us all but also provides us with opportunities for students and the community in general to understand their university as the dynamizer of the social processes of the community. Furthermore, only if professionals value and consciously assume the Humanist component will a more just and possible society for all be possible.
Normative Framework of the Humanities
In the national context, the regulations regarding higher education are regulated by the 30 Law of 1992, and the General Law of Education of 1994, which regulates the comprehensive education and, in general, the fields of university action. In the institutional sphere, the Organic Statute (2010), the PEI (2004), the Curricular Policy (2004), the Educational Pedagogical Model (2009), the General Development Plan (2012-2015) and the Agreement stand out. 28 (2013), where the policies and guidelines on integral training are established and oriented, which, from the academic point of view, promotes, manages and directs the departments and units in the headquarters and sectional.
Historical Background
The Santo Tomás University reopens its doors on the 7 of March of 1965, under the regency of the Province of San Luis Bertrán of Colombia, and it is approved in 1966 by the National Government. Initially, Humanities was established as an area of the Faculty of Philosophy, and offered courses in History of Thought, Tomism and Theological Culture to all faculties of the university.
In the middle of 1974, another academic unit was born that would exert great influence on the academic development and social projection of the university: the Deschool Education Center (CED), antecedent of the current Vice-Presidency of Open and Distance Education (VUAD). With this, a second stage of the Faculty of Philosophy and the Humanities process begins. It is a period characterized by a new orientation of the philosophy and theology of liberation in Latin America. Teaching was not only a space for reflection on man's problems, but also a search for transformation of reality and social commitment.
The Superior Council of the USTA approves the 11 Agreement (11 of August of 1974), where it established the need to unify the humanistic formation of the university through a single instance, with the provisional name of Department of Philosophy and Theological Culture, belonging to the Faculty of Philosophy, at the Bogota headquarters (Santo Tomás University, 2014, P. 2).
As a result of the academic processes within the University, especially in the triad of Philosophy Faculty, Deschooling Center and Humanities Area, a work team is formed to think about the humanities as a factor to contribute to the integral formation in local conditions and global of the future professional of the USTA. The Agreement 19-24 (4 of August of 1993) officially implements the need to include in the humanistic formation the chair of Epistemology, as well as the importance of the integral physical formation, the mastery of a second language, and the social projection of all academic programs. [...] The Department of Humanities and Integral Training in Bogota, was legalized in the 10 Agreement (30 of August of 2004), with six compulsory chairs of three credits each and a wide offer of Institutional Optional Chairs (IOC), in charge of promote humanistic education. For this Humanities 7 process of humanistic formation, the University has instances in the Sectional and Sedes of Bucaramanga (1973), Tunja (1996), Medellín (1998) and Villavicencio (2007) (USTA, pp. 2-3).
In the last period, it is highlighted that, through the 28 Agreement (16 of October of 2013), the Superior Council determined the unification of policies and guidelines for the management of the humanities in the substantive functions and of the academic-administrative management. The nature and condition of their academic programs were determined, in accordance with the institutional stamp of the USTA, and how the above will allow the fulfillment of the objectives of the institution in relation to the integral human formation. Finally, it is clarified that institutional training is a mandatory component of the curriculum in all academic programs.
What are the Humanities?
The Humanities are the whole set of principles and scopes of knowledge that reflect on the human being, the meaning of his life and his role in the world. Unlike technology, mathematics, or physical or chemical sciences, for the humanities, more important than the objects of nature, or that ideas and inventions, is the human being.
What is the Department of Humanities?
It is the heart of the University, its soul, since this dependency is in charge of permeating with all the humanistic philosophy, the Catholic principles, and the Thomistic pedagogy, to all areas of university life.
Why does the Department of Humanities exist?
Because St. Thomas Aquinas was a man of faith and science, and of profound humanity. So this Department keeps its ideals, its teachings adapted to today's world, and the principles that it inspires us.
What is the Humanities Department for?
The Department of Humanities exists to complement the technical and theoretical training, with a component of great humanism, respect for man and work for the common good of humanity. Not everything is science, but humanism.
How is the Department of Humanities?
A department director, a department coordinator, a research coordinator, a director of the humanities journal "Questiones Disputatae" (which in Spanish means "Issues in debate") and several teachers of great academic and human preparation form the Department of Humanities.

Since being designated a European Capital of Culture for 2013, with an estimated €660 million of funding in the bargain, Marseille has been in the throes of an extraordinary transformation, with no fewer than five major new arts centers, a beautifully refurbished port, revitalized neighborhoods, and a slew of new shops and restaurants. Once the underdog, this time-burnished city is now welcoming an influx of weekend tourists who have colonized entire neighborhoods and transformed them into elegant pieds-à-terre (or should we say, mer). The second-largest city in France, Marseille is one of Europe's most vibrant destinations. Feisty and fond of broad gestures, it is also as complicated and as cosmopolitan now as it was when a band of Phoenician Greeks first sailed into the harbor that is today's Vieux Port in 600 BC. Legend has it that on that same day a local chieftain's daughter, Gyptis, needed to choose a husband, and her wandering eyes settled on the Greeks' handsome commander Protis. Her dowry brought land near the mouth of the Rhône, where the Greeks founded Massalia, the most important Continental shipping port in antiquity. The port flourished for some 500 years as a typical Greek city, enjoying the full flush of classical culture, its gods, its democratic political system, its sports and theater, and its naval prowess. Caesar changed all that, besieging the city in 49 BC and seizing most of its colonies. In 1214 Marseille was seized again, this time by Charles d'Anjou, and was later annexed to France by Henri IV in 1481, but it was not until Louis XIV took the throne that the biggest transformations of the port began; he pulled down the city walls in 1666 and expanded the port to the Rive Neuve (New Riverbank). The city was devastated by plague in 1720, losing more than half its population. By the time of the Revolution, Marseille was on the rebound once again, with industries of soap manufacturing and oil processing flourishing, encouraging a wave of immigration from Provence and Italy. With the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869, Marseille became the greatest boomtown in 19th-century Europe. With a large influx of immigrants from areas as exotic as Tangiers, the city quickly acquired the multicultural population it maintains to this day.

In Step with the Times
Alberto Grimoldi
Job Title
What I find most important is getting the younger generation, who has lived through such a devastating economic time, to believe that the future can and will be better.
Grimoldi S.A. was founded in 1895 by my grandfather, his brother, and his brother-in-law. My grandfather was the son of an Italian immigrant, whose family migrated to Argentina in 1860. From 1880 to 1930, Argentina enjoyed decades of exceptional growth, importing capital and exporting goods. Argentine businessmen had a very favorable entrepreneurial environment. When the economy grows like that for fifty years, at an accumulated rate of 6 percent, business is easier. In those first several decades, Grimoldi grew and became one of Argentina's and Latin America's leading footwear companies. And like other growing businesses in Latin America at the time, the core of the business was involved in manufacturing, not marketing.
Starting in 1930, however, Argentina's economy began to plateau. In my opinion, this is also something that can happen to a company—it is imperative for a company to continuously innovate and transform itself. My father believed this too, and starting in the 1930s, he began opening retail stores to sell the shoes being manufactured in Grimoldi factories. He had ties with many American and European companies, and he was able to open stores in the leading commercial areas on those continents. They sold shoes to third parties, but the company's retail operations became a very significant part of the company's profits.
When the war broke out in 1940, the Argentine government basically drew its inspiration from Italy's fascism. That was significant on account of its economic impact, not to mention the impact on society. Perón's emergence in the 1940s and his election as president in 1946 brought this trend towards fascism to a head. The economy became even more closed than before. Foreign competition dropped sharply. Strong industrial growth followed, but with a competitive component. Grimoldi did very well in this period, although Argentine business began to decline in general during this decade.
During the 1960s I was working for the company, but I decided to leave it in the 1970s. I wanted to professionalize the senior leadership, but the rest of my family was against that idea. I was offered a job in the Argentine government, so I left Grimoldi to become Under Secretary of Economics and Labor. I have always believed that a family business performs best when management is professionalized, and around 1986, the company was almost broke, so I bought it back and rejoined the company, and in addition to reorganizing the senior leadership, I put a focus on marketing.
The company's public image hinged on quality and the idea of expensive footwear for men and children. Those images are very hard to change once they are embedded in people's minds. We really wanted to attract female customers, so we focused on brands. Some brands were Grimoldi-born, and others we sold in our stores, including Hush Puppies, Sperry Top-Sider, and Kicker, a French children's footwear brand. Brands enabled us to use age-based, gender-based, and price-based market segmentation. We kept the Grimoldi name for the company and the stores.
At the same time, Argentina's economy, which performed terribly in the 1980s, was trying to bounce back. Eventually the inflationary period came to an end, and Grimoldi was economically stronger than it had been before it started. Argentina also underwent a very significant change by opening its economy, which enabled us to secure licenses for foreign brands and import foreign products.
Even so, it was very hard to attract young customers, who grew up thinking Grimoldi shoes were for older generations. But once the economy opened, many young people started looking for fashion brands that they had not been able to purchase before, so our branding strategy paid off nicely.
In 2001 and 2002, the Argentinean economy experienced a major downturn, with unemployment near 25 percent and a 20 percent drop in per-capita GDP in four years. The peso went from a one-to-one parity with the US dollar to an exchange rate of 4 pesos to a dollar. Part of our business involved domestic products but also a large share of imported goods, so a devaluation of that kind had a phenomenal effect on the company, not to mention all other firms in Argentina. Grimoldi lost 60 percent of its net worth. We paid off all our debts, but the company's equity was severely impaired. We went from $80 million to $12 million in annual sales.
So how did we deal with such a massive downturn? We managed to get the owners of those brands to let us manufacture in Argentina. In ten years we went from importing 80 percent and manufacturing 20 percent of our goods to manufacturing 80 percent and importing 20 percent. In 2016 we made almost $300 million in sales through this strategy. With that said, I'm sure Argentina will begin to import products again and I envision the 80-20 percent ratio for Grimoldi shifting to a ratio of 60 percent imports and 40 % manufactured in Argentina.
What I find most important is getting the younger generation, who has lived through such a devastating economic time, to believe that the future can and will be better. It is important for them to have hope that business can innovate and turn itself around despite hard times.
This story is a condensed and edited version of a longer interview conducted by the Creating Emerging Markets project at HBS.

Each first Sunday of the month of 1- 3pm @ the sacred space of The Yoga Center of Newburyport, I am honored and happy to host loving support and healing to those in attendance of an Angelic Healing Clinic. Yesterday, April 2nd, was the beginning of working with the energy of a group, being so happy to host loving divine assistance and healing to those in attendance.
Thanks to all who were there yesterday! I feel so blessed to be able to sit with people who fearlessly were open, honest, understanding and loving. The more open and honest we were, the more divine love came flowing through.

Over the years we've had the pleasure of working on projects that are home to some rather adorable dogs. And while we wouldn't recommend planning any remodels solely around the needs of a pet it's hard to not consider their needs and what might make their lives a bit easier. Take a look at a few of the projects we've done and find out about some of the features that the dogs that call those projects home like best.
This long and lanky dog seems to really enjoy stretching out and relaxing on the floor. We'll bet it has something to do with the pleasant coolness of the stained concrete flooring and the relief it can provide in the hot Texas weather. The minimalist and open design of this modern house makes it an easy place for this dog to roam around. Plus, the plethora of windows means plenty of opportunities to keep an eye on what's going on outside.
The owners of this Dallas home wanted to create a house that was reminiscent of a French country home. Their dog looks like he would fit right in with that French countryside image. He has his own little dog room that has quick access to the backyard and a half door for access to the main home so that he can feel part of the family even when he is confined to his room. We'd also like to think he enjoys the very detailed style of the home.
These two fluffy balls of fur who call this 1929 Tudor style house their home look as comfortable as can be in their newly remodeled living room. While some of the new features, such as the custom designed built in bookcases or many high end art pieces, are likely not of much use to the dogs there are definitely other features of the remodel that they can enjoy. The new larger windows give them easier access to survey and guard their property. They even have a custom designed pocket doggy door so that they can be corralled in style.
This golden retriever looks like the perfect family pet and seems a good fit for the traditional design of this remodeled home. The hardwood and tiled floors throughout the home likely help keep him cool beneath all the fur. The remodeled office of this house is also home to some comfortable furniture which will make it even easier for this dog to keep its owners company while they are busy working.
While this blog post is mainly devoted to the dogs we've had the chance to get to know through our remodels it would seem a shame to not include the other four legged and furry creature that is a popular pet. So here's a bonus feature on one of the cats we've had the chance to work with. This cat's home is one of Key Residential's custom home builds. There are plenty of comfy beds throughout the house for it to rest on, as well as built in window seats in the breakfast room and master bedroom. An open stairway to the second floor and tall ceilings give the cat plenty of places to survey its territory.

In world unsettled by political and economic upheavals, with looming trade wars and protectionist rhetoric, the one key factor necessary for the gem and jewellery industry, that is international by its very nature, to maintain its equilibrium and power forward successfully, is confidence.
Confidence is essential all through the production pipeline diamonds and other precious materials make their way from mines, through production centres and a global distribution system to retail systems in every continent. Wherever you are situated in the production pipeline, confidence comes from knowing — knowing your upstream supplier as well as your downstream client well. Knowing how they work, whether they understand you and your own function well; are capable of catering to your specific needs; can supply you with product to your exacting specifications.
While there are several successful internet-based models for raw material sourcing and supply, these present a heightened risk when there is political risk or when the pipeline itself is roiled by major happenings. It becomes necessary to make physical contact with your supplier as well as your downstream customer. The latter wanting the assurance that the upstream supplier will support his or her business with the right kind of product and service and the former wanting the assurance that the customer is indeed a solid player.
Given the financial scandal everyone in the diamond industry is talking about and the uncertainty brought about by protectionist rhetoric and action from the US coupled with political uncertainty in Europe, what is urgently needed to bring back confidence within the diamond production pipeline is a physical meeting of solid industry players.
Connecting physically has no become more important than ever for the gem and jewellery industry, which by its very nature is international — diamonds, gold and gemstones are mined in one continent, sorted and processed in yet another continent, manufactured into jewellery perhaps in yet another location, and finally consumed in global markets that may not have been part of this international pipeline.
This is why today, despite the ease of doing business online, physical buyer-seller meets in the context of a reputed industry establishment are so sought after. This fact was not lost on the Bharat Diamond Bourse (BDB). The BDB is a member of the World Federation of Diamond Bourses (WFDB) and the apex body representing all industry stakeholders in India, the world's largest diamond-processing country. It realised it had to provide the repetitional assurance it has to get diamond industry stakeholders together in a safe space with an industry-recognised environment of norms and methods of doing business.
This is why it got behind the idea of the Bharat Diamond Week. This event, a choreographed buyer-seller get-together under the auspices of the BDB, is slated to run from April 23 to 25. Being a member of the WFDB and complying with its global norms, the BDB knows it can assure all the stakeholders while the world's largest product range — from tiny single cuts all the way through to far-sized polished in every imaginable clarity and colour is on offer to buyers from every corner of the world.
The strong response to the idea — the BDB now estimates some 4,000 visitors to the event — is testament to the need felt by global stakeholders in the diamond industry. Actually talking to someone, seeing the right sort of product and knowing a referee is in the wings, is just what the global diamond industry needs right now.

text: Last month, I talked about New Year's Resolutions and Our Immunity to Change so I was very intrigued when I read the title of Michael Pollan's new book: How to Change Your Mind- What the New Science of Psychedelics Teaches Us About Consciousness, Dying, Addiction, Depression and Transcendence. Michael Pollan has written 5 New York Times best sellers including Food Rules; In Defense of Food; and The Omnivore's Dilemma. He teaches at Harvard and at U.C. Berkeley; he presented his book last May at Talks at Google and he has been selected to speak at the 2019 edition of Wisdom 2.0 conference which I will be attending next March. So despite my initial reluctance to engage with the topic, I not only read the book but I am now writing about it here.

What is the Average Cost of a Hunting Rifle? Average Hunting Rifle Price
The cost of a hunting rifle can be determined only after ascertaining whether you are buying one just to target shoot. If so, it may be cheap and a .22 rifle will serve the purpose, though it may not be useful to hunt anything more than a rabbit. A bolt action .243 rifle may look more ideal for specific shoots. The semi auto rifle is also quite handy. A sow or young male may be preferred if you are going to hunt a deer or a wild boar. However, to buy a hunting rifle, you will have to undergo a compulsory check and also wait for a while. For that matter, purchasing a hunting rifle online may be more convenient. The average cost of a hunting rifle is $400.

This week, I'm focusing on what I'm most thankful for: my sweet husband, good friends, crazy family, my cat, coffee, fried turkey, cozy blankets, cute boots, Lavish (my favorite store!), this little ol' blog, and all of YOU.
We hope you have a magical Thanksgiving, full of good friends and family, turkey and dressing, pumpkin pie, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, sweet tea, good sales (if you're into the whole Black Friday thing), and a whole lotta love. Gobble 'til you wobble, y'all!

Choosing the best lawyer to represent you is one of the best things that can help your injury case. But how do you find a certified lawyer to represent you? A professional attorney can guide and help you on how to win your case.
When looking for the best lawyer, make sure that you know the many considerations you need to put into place. With the right factors, the process of choosing the right attorney can be relatively straightforward. But as a beginner, take your time to do some bit of research.
After the research, you will know the right information that will drive you to pick the best lawyer. If you get injured in a car accident, make sure that you look for a professional car accident lawyer to help you win your case. Recently, car accidents have increased and due to this reason, many professional car accident lawyers are in demand. Below are some of the factors to help you decide the best injury lawyer to choose.
When it comes to assessing a claim, do not underestimate the value of an attorney's experience. That is why when you are looking for a professional attorney, make sure that you hire a personal injury lawyer who knows what to look for and understands what it means to win a case.
Before you decide to hire a car accident attorney, make sure that you take your time to check on their background to know the exact duration they have been in the field of law. Make sure that you check some of the cases they have handled and their success rate.
A lawyer's reputation offers that added value since it precedes them from the defendant's perspective. When you are choosing your lawyer, make sure that you ask around to know the kind of a person you will be dealing with.
Another essential aspect you are asked to put into consideration is objectivity. Ensure that your injury lawyer is objective. Also, investigate clearly to know whether your injury attorney is not looking to settle your case too quickly to move to the next case or client.
A professional injury lawyer has the best and unique skills that will help you to win your case. Also, they are helpful when it comes to the issues of liability such as causation and negligence. That is why it is essential to ensure that you have a dedicated and focused lawyer if you want to win the case.…

Reception thoroughly enjoyed their afternoon spent designing and making their 'future-ready' vehicles. Take a look at their final designs and prototypes below - could this be the future of transport?
|Canada made a "submarine-car" which featured 'sideways'
wheels and even a toilet and
a chimney! The driver's seat was placed at the top so they could see all around.
India's vehicle featured wings and came complete with a second detatchable 'super car'.
They were very thoughtful about the amount of wheels their vehicle needed.
|France came up with a design that featured many different
driving seats so that the
car could go lots of different ways. They even added a flag on top as a car badge.
|Sweden's car featured springs so that it could jump over
rivers, and a grate to allow the
steam to come off of the engine. The team decided to call the model "H2S04 BPS Car Flyer"
|Mexico made a vehicle complete with rocket boosters and a 'hoover
button' to allow
the car to clean as it drives around. Their car also came equipped with a second smaller car inside.

Awards are not important: Leonardo Dicaprio
Hollywood heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio says he does not consider the award when he signs up to take on a role.hollywood Updated: Jan 18, 2012 18:21 IST
Hollywood heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio says he does not consider the award when he signs up to take on a role. The J Edgar star, who has been nominated for three
Oscars in his career, said he prefers to think about the people he will work with, Contactmusic reported.
"I don't think I ever expected anything like an Oscar ever, to tell you the truth. That is not my motivation when I do these roles. I really am motivated by being able to work with great people and create a body of work that I can look back and be proud of," he said.
The 37-year-old actor is always grateful when people are talking about movies he is in, but has come to learn not all of his films will be a success in the eyes of audiences. "I have learned from my experiences in this industry that there is absolutely no way to control people's opinions on your performance in your movie.
"You go out there, promote your film and hope people like the work you did. But they're going to respond the way they're going to respond when they're in a room with that ballot," he added.

Kiewit, one of the largest transportation contractors in North America, constructs and upgrades interstate; highways and bridges; rail lines and rail yards; urban mass transit systems; and airport runways, taxiways and associated facilities. Kiewit's capabilities are reinforced by one of the largest privately-owned fleets of construction equipment in North America, which enables the company to rapidly mobilize the necessary resources for any project. Engineering News-Record (ENR) consistently ranks Kiewit among the top transportation contractors in the United States. In 2015, Kiewit was ranked the No. 2 contractor in transportation, as well as No. 2 in bridges and mass rail, and No. 3 in highways. During the past 10 years, Kiewit constructed 1,000 transportation projects totaling nearly $30 billion in contract revenue. About 70 percent of these projects were delivered using negotiated procurement methods, including best value and A+B bids.
This $6.2 million new berthing facility completed ahead of schedule was the first design-build pier completed in the U.S. Navy's history. Work included a temporary mooring, relocation of the Acoustic Testing Facility, and demolition of two timber piers and the fixed boathouse.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers awarded Kiewit an $20 million project to remove and rebuild the existing east and west breakwaters as well as dredge the navigational channel of Kikiaola Light Draft Harbor on the island of Kauai, Hawaii. A mining excavator with state-of-the art GPS technology is used to set stone for breakwater and excavate the existing jetty.
The passenger tunnel at Dulles International Airport allows travelers to move more efficiently through the fast-growing airport. Kiewit excavated the tunnel under a live taxiway using New Austrian Tunneling Method. The completed tunnel is lined with PVC waterproofing and reinforced cast-in-place concrete and is equipped with escalators and moving walkways.
Constructed for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, these aircraft weather shelters feature drive-through aircraft bays with mechanical/electrical support, tool storage, and administration areas. The 63-foot by 70-foot bays are separated by concrete "blast walls" containing all equipment needed for missile loading, fueling, and normal maintenance operations.
The $56 million Puget Sound Carrier Support Complex project included construction of a 1,680-foot-long by 126-foot-wide carrier pier and a 470-foot-long by 144-foot-wide marginal wharf for escort vessels. Ship service utilities included steam, potable water, sanitary sewer, and shore power electrical service and communications lines.
Work for this $13.5 million project included widening the eastbound side of the bridge, adding a new support arch to create room for another traffic lane and rehabilitation of the existing 132-metre structure.
This $22 million emergency repair contract provided structural stability to Graving Dock #3 after a sheetpile cell catastrophically erupted. Kiewit successfully dewatered the dock and strengthened the cell. The team's impressive performance led to a follow-on contract to provide permanent repairs to the dock.
After successfully completing the emergency repair contract at Graving Dock #3, General Dynamics awarded Kiewit the $38 million long term repair project. Crews developed an innovative concrete mix that allowed quick turnaround of formwork, enabling them to meet the project's demanding schedule.
This $22.5 million, 1,025-foot-long wharf extension at the National City Marine Terminal radically increased the cargo-handling capacity, permitting simultaneous berthing of two 700-foot-long ships capable of carrying as many as 2,000 vehicles each.
This container wharf - the largest in the country - is more than 4,000 feet long and can accommodate up to four container ships simultaneously. The project received a 1997 Marvin M. Black Award for Excellence in Partnering.

Mustang II Tubular Control Arm Set by Helix™ includes 2 upper control arms and 2 lower control arms. Everything you need in one kit!
These control arms are a fully assembled, ready-to-install, direct replacement for stock upper and lower control arms on any Helix™ Mustang II IFS application and will fit most stock or aftermarket crossmembers with gussets installed. The lower arms are a direct replacement for stock Mustang II LCA's with standard springs.
The Helix™ upper control arm assembly features 12 point TIG welded construction for maximum strength and durability, corrosion/rust resistant painted surface (except powder coated cross shaft), full .120 wall aircraft quality tubular design which is lighter weight yet much stronger than OE stock design and provides for more clearance for body sheet metal. Complete assembly includes cross shaft with polyurethane no-squeak bushings & steel sleeves, knurled surface mount area* on cross shaft, screw-in ball joint with urethane dust boot and grease fitting, castle nut w/ cotter pin, castle nut spacer, 2 ea. Nyloc nuts and plain washers. These upper control arms are a stock width design (non-narrowed) and ready to drop in immediately out of the box. For all of your suspension needs, Helix™ delivers the winning edge for maximum performance when it really counts!
*Cross Shaft has knurled surface area on both sides of mounting points which provides "bite" into mounting surface area so as to prevent slippage and hold alignment settings. Surface area on cross shaft is unfinished and repainting/refinishing shaft is not recommended because any type of body filler or thick paint will prevent knurls from biting properly which can cause slippage and loss of alignment adjustment.
The Helix™ lower control arm assembly features precision fabricated TIG welded construction and 1 inch O.D. aircraft quality tubular steel design with full .120 wall for maximum strength and durability. This makes for a lighter weight yet much stronger LCA than the original stock arm that will endure a far higher stress load than the OEM design.
Complete left and right assembly includes 2 ea. 5/8-11 x 12" hex bolts (cross shaft), nylon locking nuts and large 5/8" washers, built-in polyurethane no-squeak bushings w/ steel sleeves, screw-in ball joint with urethane dust boot & grease fitting, 7/16-14 x 7" hex bolt (Allen head), castle nut w/ cotter pin, and castle nut/ball joint spacers (2 ea. x 2).

If you suffer from hair loss this listing could well be what you've been looking for to finally solve your problem… Apart from on the soles of our feet, palms and lips the rest of our body grows hair – around 5 million in an average person. It usually takes a month for œ inch of healthy hair to grow. This can continue for 6 years before it falls out and fresh hair grows. Hair is important for it protects our nose, ears and eyes from foreign bodies in the air and it keeps us warm. Some very common hair problems include hair loss – especially from the scalp – flaking and infections. We can lose up to 100 hairs a day and the causes could be serious or mild. Serious causes could be alopecia, thyroid problems, lupus, diabetes, chemotherapy treatment for cancer, radiation or severe infections. Other causes include stress, fungal infections, pregnancy and childbirth, medications like birth control pills, NSAIDs, antidepressants etc. Hormonal problems or a major surgery also cause hair loss. Cinnamon Oil contains chemical compounds like Eugenol and Cinnamaldehyde. These offer antiviral, anti-fungal, antibacterial and many other benefits which could help with hair problems by preventing fungal and bacterial infections of the scalp. Cinnamon Oil massaged into the scalp has been used in aromatherapy to stimulate the hair follicles. Microbial activity can cause hair loss. Cinnamon Oil has antimicrobial properties which could also treat dandruff caused by fungal infections. It can also be used to treat dry and brittle hair. Applying Cinnamon Oil to the surrounding areas of the scalp like the neck and temples channels blood flow to the scalp and stimulates hair growth. Instructions: Apply a few drops of Cinnamon Oil to the area you would like to treat and massage it in. Leave the massaged oil for half an hour. Wash your hair with your usual shampoo.

You want to hire the top talent in your field, which will require multiple rounds of interviews. But too often hiring managers make the mistake of thinking the burden of passing an interview lies on the shoulders of the candidate. The truth is, making critical mistakes as an interviewer can cause you to lose out on talented individuals who will take a job elsewhere and are also likely to pass on their opinion of your company to their friends, peers, and co-workers. The job market is turning around, which means talented individuals have multiple companies recruiting them, and you don't want to lose out. Here are 3 interview mistakes to avoid as an interviewer if you want to hire talented individuals:
Being inconsiderate
You're busy, sure, but that is no excuse for being rude to a job candidate. Neglecting to return phone calls, showing up late for an interview, or worse cancelling an interview at the last second, suggest to the candidate that they are dealing with a company that is disorganized and a hiring manager who doesn't value their employees. If you must change the time of an interview, call with as much notice as possible, and be flexible when working with the candidate's schedule. Don't check your phone during the interview, and take the time to listen to candidates instead of brushing them off. If you find yourself continuously rushing through interviews, it's time to reevaluate your interviewing process.
Talking too much
It's easy to get carried away by giving a lot of detail about your company, the position you're trying to fill, and the company's goals. But talking too much about yourself and/or your company is a big mistake. At the end of the interview, you will find that you really don't know anything about the job candidate outside of what is printed on their resume. Develop short descriptions of your company along with a succinct job description. Follow this up with specific questions that ask the candidate how their experience will lend itself to the company and the job you are hiring for.
Asking yes and no questions
Ideally a top job candidate will be able to expand beyond "yes" or "no" when faced with one of these questions, but the stress of the interview can cause candidates to freeze up. Further, yes or no questions don't do much to tell a candidate what you are looking for, and they certainly don't tell you anything significant about a candidate. Instead, ask for descriptions of a time when a candidate had to handle a high pressure situation, or simply ask them for a rundown of their typical workday to get an understanding of how they work. Be sure to ask follow-up questions instead of nodding and moving on to the next topic.
The role of interviewer is as important as ever as more and more jobs are opening up for talented individuals. Avoid these mistakes during your next round of hiring to attract, hire, and retain top talent. For more ideas on how to interview potential employees, contact us today.

Saw Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows part 1 yesterday.
Overall mood after the movie - Not bad, infact i like it.
Every time I watch a harry potter movie, i am just in awe by such an awesome job done by writers/screenplay in LOTR. LOTR book was probably more complicated than Harry potter, more depth and characters but the movies are so nicely done, picking the ones that we care, changing timelines sometimes etc.
Harry Potter series in movies have taken the tone of being true to the book to as much as possible. There is a big dilemma - If you are not true to the book, book fans will kill you and that is a big loss. If you are true to the book, then you have to fit it in 2-3 hrs and that makes it a very big challenge.
The good decision taken for the last part was to split it into two parts. This way they can be true to the book and they have double the time now.
About this film -
The goods -
1. No matter what one says, most of the adults are actually going to see how the children have grown up with the series and how their acting has changed. And people like me who has also grown with them, it is a similar adventure. And it is very evident with every movie. Acting of Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson ranges from mundane to very good. When its very good, you enjoy the movie a lot better. The dance scene which is not in book, is one of the best scenes in movie just because how it starts.
2. Good cinematography - Not very often but sometimes, the camera work is just awesome. I think camera work plays a very big role in these epic style movies, it can tell you the scale of system etc.
3. The film takes a more relaxed pace when they are wandering in jungle. I think the slowness of pace helps a lot in understanding whats happening. The fear, the uncertainties, challenges, all seem likely. When you gloss over one ting over another each in 5 minutes, its like reading the book in tweets :)
4. And yes, the animation in the story of three brothers - very very nicely done. Delighted to see that.
The bads -
1. Oh come on, you killed the intro scene. Harry potter escape from his house was such vividly described in the book. Those 100 pages were the best 100 start pages of any harry potter book and you killed it. And why only focus on harry potter, there were other characters as well.
2. The tension is lacking when they are in the cellar of Malfoys. That could have been done in a nice manner.I would have killed the nagini scene, the cemetery scene to buy time for the above.
3. Score, somehow through out the entire series, the score is something that has been lacking.
But overall, all prepped up for the finale. Looking forward for other movies from Daniel Radcliffe - lets see how he does.

Meso Skin booster for face & Neck rejuvenation
M-skin booster is the result of years of experience in the field of beauty treatment on outpatients as well as the synthesis of the most recent acquisitions of knowledge on homeopathy together with biophysics. Aging, wrinkles and the lost of tonus of the skin's face and neck are caused by changes in the EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX (ECM).
M-skin booster has been specifically designed to :
- Drain and detoxify the ECM in order to maintain the integrity of the functional structure of the dermis,
- Improve dermal cell metabolic function to have sufficient "energy" levels to maintain their neosynthesis substrates of the krebs cycle,
- Stimulate the fibroblasts to start their synthesizing activity of ECM and the new production of Hyaluronic acid.
- Have an antioxidant action for the protection against photoaging and free radicals.
Each ingredient in its unique formulation has been chosen for its specific action to counteract the aging process.
The two main targets are:
- On the cell metabolism and connective tissue in order to maintain the results of the treatment.
- On the skin's structure by supplementing the skin's natural substances which are missing and also directly on the cells metabolism.
The ingredients used for its preparation
include :
The ingredients used for its preparation
include :
- DNA : enhances the effect of all ingredients. It also activates the antioxidant machanisms.
- Collagen : is the main component of the connective tissue and has a direct action on the autologous production of fibroblasts.
- Placental Protein : stimulates the new production of fibroblasts (EGF)
- Hyaluronica Acid : fortifies skin's resistance to lines and wrinkle by replenishing the skin's moisture barrier.
- Galium Aparine : has a draining action (detoxification of connective tissue).
- Succinic, Malic and Fumaric Acids : Intermediate catalysts to supply energy to cells and responsible for cellular respiration.
- Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) and Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): have antioxidant activities (action against photoaging and protection of the matrix glycosaminoglycans).
- Ubiquinone (Coenzyme Q10): helps cellular metabolism by counteracting skin aging processes.
Result after treatment
- Healthy glow and brighter skin pore size, wrinkles and pigmentation.
- Firmer and younger skin .

Photocatalytic Oxidation Processes for Toluene Oxidation over TiO2 Catalysts

AbstractGas-solid heterogeneous photooxidation of toluene over TiO2 catalyst was studied to investigate the factors controlling the catalytic activities. The toluene photooxidation behavior on TiO2 was strongly affected by the formation and oxidation behavior of intermediate compounds on TiO2, and their accumulation decreased the reaction rate for toluene photooxidation. The formation and oxidation behavior of the byproduct compounds depended on the initial concentration of toluene and water vapor. In situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) studies revealed that water vapor promoted the cleavage of the aromatic ring and facilitated CO2 formation. At the reaction temperature of 300 K, the deposition of Pt on TiO2 suppressed CO formation, whereas catalytic activity was decreased due to the increase in the amount of intermediate compounds. On the other hand, Pt/TiO2 showed higher activity than TiO2 at 353 K, in spite of the increase of the intermediate compounds. View Full-Text
