Good hygiene for young girls does not mean waxing and facials
2011-05-27 22:26:00 This winter, Walmart announced that it is introducing a new line of cosmetics, specifically designed for girls 8- to 12-years-old. The mass retailer wants a piece of the tween make-up market, which earns more than $24 million per year. And we aren't talking about Chapstick. The top sellers to kids are lip gloss, eye shadow and mascara. Picture some eye shadow and mascara on your eight-year-old daughter, and then ask why boys view her as a sexual object in second grade."I like blush, lipstick, um, mascara," 9-year-old Haley Solomon said to ABC News. Of course she likes blush, lipstick, and, um, mascara. She is a kid. Katie asks me for make-up all the time. I hand her a tube of...
Mid-Week Mix-Up: Hygiene Epiphanies and Finding Inspiration in the Odd
2010-09-01 14:20:00 © Rachel Wolfe 2006 There is so much in a toothbrush. Think of your chomper cleaner as metaphor, a sort of magic wand to washing off the residue of what nourishes you. In the morning, we can remove the bad taste in our mouths by starting the day feeling fresh. At night, all the coffee and tea, bits of spinach or wedges of meat are removed. The minute and a half we spend brushing teeth is an opportunity, a rare chance to spend a moment doing nothing else but caring for yourself. In this time, the mind can be open to a barrage of useful revelations and potetially life-altering ephiphanies. Behold the power in your brush. Today, try focusing...
Public Hygiene and the Removal and Confinement of Dangerous Individuals
2010-01-17 19:52:00 The notion of a dangerous individual, someone being a danger to themselves and / or society was a notion that started with the invention of criminology in the nineteenth century. It is an interesting fact that after the concept of the dangerous individual, a person could be arrested ?a priori? of the crime as a suspected ?future? criminal. Before that, criminals were punished ?after the fact? and rather for their ?act? not just for dangerous features or characteristics. Yet the idea of dangerous individuals has become a commonplace and a given in our modern society and justice system. It has perhaps even gotten a boost with recent threats of terrorism. People deemed terrorists, mostly fitting a particular profile or stereotype or background are often arrested before they are able to realize their plot as a way of ensuring public safety. Another case for dangerous individuals is the occurrence of rampant shooting sprees which are often blamed on chemical imbalance in the brain. In fa...

Acne Hygiene
2008-07-03 19:42:00 Acne is caused by both genetics and uncontrollable external factors. For example, you will have minimal control over your hormone levels without some help from certain medications. Likewise, it is impossible for you to stop the pollution around you at this instant. Realize though that there are some things you can do to help prevent acne from forming on your skin. Following the simple suggestions above can go a long way to improving your skin condition: Stop harsh scrubbing – it’s actually recommended for you to exfoliate twice or thrice a week but don’t harshly scrub your skin. Instead, you can use a gentle formula that can effectively rid your skin of dead skin cell. Don’t use alcohol – if you are using a toner, make sure that it does not have a high concentration of rubbing alcohol or isopropyl alcohol. A strong astringent can strip the upper layer of your skin which results to red skin and more blemishes. Wash off after work o...

Dental hygiene reminder from Duncan
2008-05-15 07:00:00 After reading the Sheltie Nation post, "Does your Sheltie have bad breath?", Duncan the rescue Sheltie wanted to show us an example of why it is so important to provide regular dental care for your Sheltie. "If you remember, Duncan is a Puppy Mill Rescue. He had never been provided any dental care. I don't have any "before" pictures, but suffice it to say that his teeth were almost as bad as the worst of the pictures in your post. When he finally went in for a teeth cleaning, the Vet had no choice but to extract eighteen teeth because they were so bad! That's right, 18! These pictures show his now nearly empty mouth. Please Sheltie Moms and Dads! Take your Sheltie in for regular dental care!" "On a side note, Duncan is doing very well without the majority of his teeth. He is actually back to eating hard food again, which I didn't expect him to do! Just another one of the ...

Simple Rules For Personal Health And Hygiene
2008-05-05 03:40:00 Have you been following a plan for your own personal hygiene, or do you get up in the morning, take a bath, brush and blow dry your hair, use the bathroom through the day, and go to bed at night? If you only do the latter, you need to put more planning and preparation into your personal care and grooming.Cleanliness is seen nowadays as next to Godliness, and neglect of your own personal hygiene may cause health and social problems of which you are not even aware. Bad breath, for example, is a common problem--the perpetrator is often accused of it, but he or she may not be attending to it. Problems such as dandruff are forgivable, but good looks are usually the result of great care and attention paid to personal grooming. You should put some time and effort into it if you want to feel and look your best every day.All external parts of the body need time and attention. Below is a partial list of the body parts which you should be taking care of with your grooming plan. Here are some t...

UK female Muslim medics protest new hygiene rules'
2008-02-04 12:08:00 Muslim women training in several hospitals in England have objected to removing their arm coverings in theatre and to rolling up their sleeves when washing their hands, because it is regarded as immodest in Islam. Universities and NHS trusts fear many more will refuse to co-operate with new Department of Health guidance, introduced this month, which stipulates that all doctors must be "bare below the elbow". According to a report in The Telegraph, the measure has been deemed necessary to stop the spread of infections such as MRSA and Clostridium difficile, which have killed hundreds. Minutes of a clinical academics' meeting at Liverpool University revealed that female Muslim students at Alder Hey children's hospital had objected to rolling up their sleeves to wear gowns. Similar concerns have been raised at Leicester University. Sheffield University also reported a case of a Muslim medic who refused to "scrub" as this left her forearms exposed. Documents from B...

Healthy Habit No. 6: Practice Good Dental Hygiene
2008-01-26 08:51:00 Flossing your teeth every day could add 6.4 years to your life, according to Michael Roizen, MD, author of RealAge. In his book, Roizen lists flossing as one of the most important daily activities -- along with exercise and quitting smoking -- that could extend life span.Roizen's calculation may raise some eyebrows, but the idea that oral health is connected to overall health isn't far-fetched.The mouth, after all, is an integral part of the body. "Teeth have a blood supply, and that blood supply comes from the heart," says Richard Price, DMD, consumer advisor for the American Dental Association (ADA).Researchers suspect that the bacteria that produce dental plaque enter the bloodstream. They say these bacteria are somehow associated with the inflammation that occurs with plaque that blocks blood vessels and causes heart disease.Other researchers have found links between oral bacteria and stroke, diabetes, and the birth of preterm babies and those that have low birth weight.In add...

French Hygiene and Stereotypes
2007-12-17 21:38:00 French Hygiene and StereotypesHygiene in France- if there is such a thing- is somewhat different than in most parts of the planet. I am in a position where I must state that the smelly French man stereotype really did come from somewhere. It is true- French people stink.Well, so do I. But I am a traveler and have eight years of Road crust growing over me. I must say that my pharamoans are a little different than most.My friends from Chile, a place where the people wash themselves almost obsessively, seem to find a little humor in the French cleaning habits. “You can smell some of these people from five kilometers away,” she said, and continued with, “The people open their mouths to laugh and they don’t have any teeth! They just have black holes and no teeth!” My friend then continued to tell me about a time when she went to a dentist in France and told him that she wanted her teeth cleaned. With a puzzled expression on his face, the French dentist asked her why in the worl...

One in four Hospitals fail hygiene standards.
2007-10-18 14:40:00 There is a country that provides free health care to all its citizens. To achieve this, the service is paid for with tax payers money. In fact the service is actually funded well above the rate of inflation. Now considering that kind of investment, you would expect the service to be excellent, wouldn't you?Well the country in question is not so lucky. Against all the odds, one in four of these highly funded Hospitals are failing to meet hygiene standards. How could this happen? Well it looks like the country's government spent too much money on management and achieving targets, and not enough on nurses, beds and equipment. That's bad news for any country. The real bad news is that this story is about our country, and it is not fiction.Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless device

This is not so Me for the first thing in the morning, especially when I'm at Home...It's not really about laziness, neither it's a hassle, it's all about oral hygiene...

Usually for every night I floss, brush and finished it with an alcohol-free fluoride mouth rinse... Except for those constant flowing of saliva within my oral cavity, my oral is basically quite well-protected and cleaned during the entire night while sleeping... Kinda of wasting of toothpaste and effort to double-brush your teeth early in the next morning...Origin and formation of the word "Breakfast" comes from 1463, from break (v.) + fast (n.). Cf.

2007-08-22 05:52:00 I never would have thought Britney Spears would make it onto my blog, but I cannot help but wonder what is wrong with our society when I glance at the headlines of the tabloids in the grocery store. That America has a voyeuristic fascination with the off-stage drama of our stars is not so interesting. But the headlines Spears made in Star Magazine is rather disturbing (from memory, emphasis added):Britney Spears tells boys, "You were a mistake!" Makes out with guys in front of them, refuses to change their diapers, uses whitening strips on her teeth & more!That Spears appears to be an unfit mother has been made painfully clear for all the world to see. But OH MY GOSH! She uses whitening strips? The horror! I wonder what that will be worth on eBay?Britney Spears, Spears, stars, culture |
