Head lice, the very mention of them are enough to get most people scratching. In the next few weeks children of all ages will start heading back to school which will be shortly followed by a mass outbreak of these hair based parasites.

Luckily we’ve moved on from the idea that only children with dirty hair can catch lice. Clean hair or dirty hair, head lice don’t really care. As long as there’s enough hair to scuttle through and a nice warm scalp to feed on, head lice are perfectly happy.

There’s not much you can do to prevent your child catching head lice if they come into contact with someone who’s got them. It takes only a few seconds of head contact for the lice to transfer from one head to another. This is why girls are more likely to catch them than boys – girls like to huddle up with their heads close together as they share secrets.

If you know there are head lice about then you can try and warn them to avoid getting their head too close to anyone else’s but they’ll probably have forgotten the warning by the next day. Being vigilant and checking the hair with a head lice comb is probably a better tactic. By using early head lice removal you can prevent an infestation getting hold.

If you find any lice don’t forget to check your entire family including yourself. Although children are the most likely to catch head lice that doesn’t mean that adults are immune from these parasites.

There are plenty of over the counter and home remedies for head lice out there but if you are having real troubling eradicating head lice then have a word with your doctor who may be able to prescribe some stronger head lice treatments.

Do you have a half hour or longer commute? If so, you may feel like you’re wasting 5 hours a week with the task of driving. Many people do unsafe things like talking on a cellphone, text messaging, even reading the newspaper while they drive. Why? To regain some of that lost time. But there are plenty of safer ways to get something accomplished while you’re stuck in traffic.

Relax. This ought to be the easiest one, but sometimes isn’t. Turn on some music, drive a little slower and just use the time to relax. Remind yourself that everybody needs a little down time, so that’s productive, too. You’ll probably find this a lot easier to do part of the time, if you do something else at other times, so here are a few ideas.

• Listen to an audiobook. Whether it’s just the novel you don’t have time to read or a business book to help your career or finances.
• Brush up on a foreign language. Publishers like Pimsleur and Berlitz offer CDs, tapes and even downloadable MP3s specifically designed for learning a language while you drive. Here’s a useful skill that also helps sharpen the brain generally.
• Listen to news or talk radio. No matter your interest, there’s probably a talk radio program available to fit – from personal advice to pets to cars to cigars, talk radio is about a lot more than just current events. (Just remember when you’re ready to call in to a talk radio program that the number 4 tip in my list of 12 tips for calling a talk radio show is “don’t use a cellphone!” Wait for the phone call until you’re out of the car.)

Some work at home or home based business opportunity offers are scams. If it is so easy to pay a few dollars and make thousands, wouldn’t everyone be doing it by now? There is a great place in development where you can go to find Work at Home Reviews without having to pay any money.

When doing your due diligence investigating an opportunity, product, or service ask yourself, where did you see the “Big Money” work from home offer? If you saw a poster tacked to a bulletin board or one of those little signs on the side of the road then I can almost guarantee you that it’s not a legitimate offer. If you saw an ad in a newspaper, a job magazine or job website, then it’s more likely to be legitimate but not always.

Here are the biggest scams out there, how to recognize them, and how to avoid them.

Envelope Stuffing is one of the most established work-from-home scams. Once you pay your money and sign up to work from home, you are sent a set of envelopes and ads just like the one you responded to. Then, you stuff your envelopes and pay to send them out. You could make some money if someone responds to your ad but the chances are slim. Don’t waste your money on this one.

Home Assemblers. Charging for supplies is hard to pin down to any one scam. First you will be asked to invest in the materials needed to do the work and then you will be sent very cheap materials that aren’t worth anything like what you paid for them. Once the product is assembled you’ll find that there’s no one who will buy it.

Home Typing and Medical Billing scams. This one will lead you to believe that they have more work than they can handle so they need people to work from home. You will be told that you would be typing documents, or entering medical bills into a computer. These scams have one thing in common. They say all you need is your computer and then all you have to do is buy their special software to do the job.

Fair and consumer driven reviews on many types of work at home businesses including products, services, and mlm opportunities will be easily accessible during the Grand Unveiling site launch of iMarketPortal.

1. 80% of dogs that are infected by Canine Parvovirus that are untreated die in four to five days – with the older 2a and 2b strains of the virus.

2. Fully-vaccinated dogs, including both puppies and adults, are being infected by and dying from the most recent 2c strain of the Parvovirus.

3. For reasons nobody yet understands, some breeds, such as Labrador Retrievers, Pit Bulls, Rottweilers, Black & Tan Coonhounds, Doberman Pinschers and German Shepherds are more prone to the Parvovirus.

4. The four worst states for Canine Parvovirus outbreaks are California, Texas, Arizona and Florida, although every state in the US, including Hawaii and even Alaska, and especially the southern states, are being affected.

5. The Parvo virus is incredibly hardy, can live in the ground for up to 20 years and can survive extremes of temperature, including frost and desert climates.

6. If you take your dogs to the vet’s for treatment, your bill may be anywhere from $500 to over $6,000 per dog.

7. You can only expect a 50% – 80% chance of survival if you take your dog to the vet.

8. It is now believed that the latest 2c strain may be airborne, even though Parvo has historically been transmitted through contact with infected vomit and feces.

9. It has always been suspected that Canine Parvovirus evolved from a similar feline virus, feline distemper, so it is ironic that cats can now be infected by the latest 2c strain of Canine Parvovirus.

10. Dogs that are infected by the latest 2c strain of Canine Parvo can die within one day of symptoms first appearing, with some dogs dying in only six hours.

11. The Parvo virus can incubate for anywhere from three days to 15 days, although five to seven days is most common. This means that your dog could be sick for up to two weeks and you would not even know it, as there would be no visible symptoms. However during this time, the virus is growing in strength, ready to wreak havoc on your dog’s body.

12. Ironically, administering a Parvo virus vaccine, especially the very first shot, can actually increase the chance of your puppy contracting this virus. This is because the maternal antibodies inherited by the puppy can kill off the modified live virus contained in the vaccine, but as shots work in part by lowering the body’s natural immune system, this actually opens up the puppy to infection by the full, live virus (not to mention other infections as well).

13. A few breeds of dogs, notably Cocker Spaniels and Poodles, appear to be at a reduced risk of contracting Canine Parvo, although this does not mean that they will not be infected.

If you’re looking for products you can use for home Parvo treatment, or for Parvo prevention, then you should check out our Value Packs, which contain Parvaid, Vibactra Plus, Life Cell Immune Support and, in the Gold Value Pack, Doggie Pain Relief.

Barbie Vintage Dolls

March 9, 1959 is the official birthday of the vintage Barbie dolls. Ruth Handler and her husband Eliot Handler, co-founder of the toy company Mattel, decided to release Barbie to the public on that date after Ruth brought back a prototype Barbie from a buying trip to Germany. The Handlers allowed their daughter to play with the prototype, named Lilli, and their daughter’s delight in the toy was so overwhelming that a quick and unanimous decision was made to make the prototype available to everyone by arranging for the purchase of the distribution rights in the United States.
