How to take care of your hair? few tips


As women, we take great pride in our looks. No one wants to be looked at like an old hag, right? One part of our looks that remains important on all of our look good lists, is our hair. Hair is called as the crowning glory in a human being and if you have healthy and shiny hair, then you might be considered as a blessed soul. How long it is, how thick it is, how shiny and stylish it is. So what happens to us when we start losing our hair? What does it do to our self-esteem to have hair that looks like a doll's head or worse yet, bald patches all over. Let's face it, just one bald spot is enough to throw us into a full on self esteem coma!
First of all You have to ask yourself "what kinds of shampoo am I using"? is your really healthy for your hair? Why should you ask yourself this question you may be wondering? Simply because this can mean the difference between succeeding in hair growth or failure.You might dont know but Over 90% of commercial shampoo products contain Sodium Laureth Sulphate. This is a degreasing chemical additive placed in shampoo to help lift all of the dirt and oil from your hair and scalp. It works great at doing this, but there's only one problem.
Sodium Laureth Sulphate shouldn't be used continually or else you'll eventually see thin hair. This is because of the fact that it's very harsh on the hair and will strip it out over time. There is however a way around all of this. You should start using natural hair shampoos such as those containing aloe vera, green tea, tea tree oil, and saw palmetto. All of these natural ingredients are proven hair-growing stimulants. Many are even finding some of the organic shampoos to be quite effective in cleansing the hair as well as helping it grow back.

The beautiful women who are programmed to be unfaithful

Today I read nice and quite interesting article and I guess why shouldn't I share this with you and you know what is the title of my article but it may not be always true, but a new study says that some beautiful women are more likely to have extra-marital affairs because of a sex hormone which is linked to attractiveness and flirtatiousness. Researchers have carried out the study and found that women who have high levels of oestrogen not only look and feel beautiful but are also more likely to be unfaithful to their partners, the 'Biology Letters' reported. Stop this man I know it is not in your hormones but rather in your mind. According to them, these women engage in "opportunis- tic serial monogamy" being open to flings and moving on to a new relationship if a higher-quality mate becomes available.
"Physically attractive women receive more male attention and when in relationships are more likely to be the targets of mate poaching. Attractive women also have specially high mating standards. "Because it's difficult to obtain a partner who is a good provider and also has good genes, women often have to trade off between having a long-term mate who provides continual material resources and more physically attractive, short-term sexual partners with good genetic resources. I think Women cheat because they don't feel happy and satisfied in their relationship, not because they are beautiful!
However, highly attractive women demand greater amounts of both types of resources in a partner, in addition to good parenting and partner skills. Thus, physically attractive women may not only have more alternatives but also high standards that are difficult to satisfy. Accordingly, they may have fewer reasons to be committed to any particular partner if higher quality potential mates are available," 'The Daily Telegraph' quoted lead author Dr Kristina Durante of Texas University as saying. In their study, the researchers took saliva samples from fifty-two female students aged 17 to 30 at two stages of their menstrual cycle to measure their hormone levels.
They were also questioned about their sexual histories and asked to rate their own looks before two male and seven female undergraduates blind to the study were invited to score their attractiveness from full-body photos. Durante said: "Women with higher oestradiol reported a greater likelihood of flirting, kissing and having a serious affair with someone other than their primary partner and were marginally more likely to date another man." But while high-oestradiol women had significantly more long-term relationships the hormone wasn't related to the likelihood of one-night stands. The results suggest although high-oestradiol women may not subjectively prefer long over short-term relationships they nonetheless adopt a strategy of serial monogamy.

Al-Qaeda remains 'number one threat' to US


I would prefer to say "Al-Qaeda remains to be a pain in the butt". That should make them angry as well as that make some sense. Our respected Barack Obama said that Al-Qaeda and Osama bin Laden remain the "number one threat" to US security, after a new voice recording emerged from the terror group's leader."Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda are our number one threat when it comes to American security," Obama told reporters, after the recording warned the president-elect of new fronts in bin Laden's self-styled holy war against Western interests.We're going to do everything in our power to make sure that they cannot create safe havens that can attack Americans. That's the bottom line. He then added I think that we have to so weaken his infrastructure that, whether he is technically alive or not, he is so pinned down that he cannot function.The 22-minute audio recording, whose authenticity was confirmed by the US-based Site Intelligence Group, was the first commentary from the Al-Qaeda leader in eight months.Obama has vowed to boost development in Afghanistan and shift the focus of the "war on terror" from Baghdad to Kabul as he winds down the war in Iraq. Things are going to get tougher in Afghanistan before they get better," he said, adding that "Pakistan's position on Afghanistan is going to affect our ability to succeed." actually that is good sign that Obama is concerned about US security but I think he should remember there are biggest threat in US along with terrorism.

Toyota to launch pure electric car in U.S. by 2012


Toyota Motor Corp said it would launch an all-electric car for city commuting by 2012 in the US as part of its plan to speed up the introduction of green cars as its global sales falter. The FT-EV concept made its debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, where the world's top automaker is also unveiling two new gasoline-electric hybrid cars.
The FT-EV concept shares a platform with the tiny iQ urban commuter car, which runs on a gasoline engine and emits just 99 grams of carbon dioxide per kilometer."Now, more than ever, while we are so focused on the pressing issues of the moment, we cannot lose sight of our future," Irv Miller, Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A. group vice president, said in a statement.
Toyota said the concept car is targeted at the urban dweller driving up to 50 miles between home and work, for instance.
"Last summer's $4-a-gallon gasoline was no anomaly," Miller said. "It was a brief glimpse of our future."
Toyota, which had previously said it would aim to get an electric car out by the "early part of the next decade," would join rivals General Motors Corp and Nissan Motor Co in the race to grab the lead in the zero-emission car segment.
But Toyota said it still considered gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles its long-term core powertrain technology. With an aim of selling 1 million hybrids annually soon after 2010, Toyota will launch as many as 10 new hybrid models by then in various markets. The third-generation Prius and the Lexus HS250h, to debut in Detroit, are part of that effort, it said.
General Motors, which Toyota passed in recent years to become the top global automaker by sales, has said it will launch its Chevrolet Volt electric car in the United States in late 2010. GM says the Volt will have a 40-miles range for driving on one battery charge.

subway officer's shooting


Hundreds of citizens and community leaders packed into the Bay Area Rapid Transit board room and two overflow rooms demanding the group take responsibility for a subway officer's shooting that left a young man dead.The BART board of directors meeting started with a moment of silence for Oscar Grant, a 22-year-old father who was killed on New Year's Day in a crowded train station, but it quickly turned into a parade of angry speeches by elected officials, activists and outraged citizens.For nearly six hours, according to local media, about 60 people addressed the board.
The public asked the BART directors, and they agreed, to set up a committee to review procedures. They also discussed the possibility of creating a civilian review board. Inside the room, people clutched Grant's photo. Some held signs against police brutality. A couple of times citizens chanted loudly and pumped their fists in the air.Grant's mother, Wanda Johnson, dressed in a shirt with her son's face and the words "RIP Oscar," held a news conference Thursday afternoon at the family attorney's office to plead with the public to stop the rioting breaking out in response to the shooting, according to CNN affiliate KTVU-TV.
"You're hurting people who have nothing to do with the situation. You're vandalizing their property, hurting their cars and breaking their windows. Please just stop it, please," Johnson said at the news conference.Johnson wiped tears from her eyes as her son's friends also pleaded for calm.
Footage from KTVU showed demonstrators rampaging through the streets of Oakland, California, on Wednesday protesting Grant's death. The Oakland Police Department made 105 arrests, including a mass arrest of about 80 people .. The charges include inciting a riot, vandalism, assault on a police officer and unlawful assembly, he said. One officer was injured, but not seriously, Some protesters lay on their stomachs, saying they were showing solidarity with Grant, who was shot in the back as he was face-down on the floor at a train station.
