    If it looks too good to be true, then it's too good to be true. I saw this website marketing cool-looking women's fashions at amazing prices. So, I was going to research if there was any similar provider of men's wear online. But, in the process, I discovered that everyone is saying this business is just a scam...

    I see a lot of street people whose gray hair looks yellowish instead of whiteish. Why is that?

    The answer might surprise you: hardwater. Hardwater and hair don't usually get along, and after enough exposure to minerals and metals (like calcium, magnesium, aluminum, copper, manganese, and iron) it can turn yellow.

    Okay, but that doesn't really seem like it would be the main culprit to me.

    Chlorine and other chemical residues in water, sunlight, and even oils from the scalp can also give gray or white hair a yellowish cast, says David H. Kingsley, PhD, a hair and scalp specialist in New York City.

    (Thanks "Doc." I'd think the last two factors would be the more likely guilty parties.)

    PARIS, July 7 (Reuters) - Ukraine's Yaroslava Mahuchikh set a new world record in the women's high jump on Sunday, clearing 2.10 meters at the Paris Diamond League to break a mark that has stood since 1987.

    Late last night and early this morning I finished the final proofreading of the first four chapters of my book on trading using the Numerical Price Prediction (NPP) system. Hence, I am now ready to rewrite the final chapters in accordance with the settings and protocols presently in use given my conviction that I have truly reached the end of the line in terms of the system's development.

    Hopefully this means I will be ready to submit the manuscript to Barnes & Noble for private publication by the end of summer, or no later than the end of this year at the most.

    What is Conolidine and how does it work?

    Screenshot_5.png

    Conolidine is an indole alkaloid derived from the bark of the tropical flowering shrub Tabernaemontana divaricata, also known as crape jasmine (cape jasmine, poor man's gardenia, pinwheel flower). This plant has been used in traditional Chinese, Ayurvedic, and Thai medicine for its various medicinal properties.

    The exact mechanism of action of conolidine is still being studied, but it is believed to have multiple biological targets. It has been shown to inhibit Ca(_v)2.2 calcium channels and increase the availability of endogenous opioid peptides by binding to a recently identified opioid scavenger, ACKR32. This interaction may enhance opioid receptor activity, potentially offering pain relief without the high risk of addiction associated with traditional opioids.
