NOT only do periodic dental examinations help detect cavities and gum disease, but they also allow early detection of oral cancer.
During dental exams, we screen for pre-cancerous changes in the oral tissues and help detect cancer at a stage when it can be more successfully treated.
After all these years, I still get asked the same common hair questions from readers and clients.
So here I am once again with the answers.
Question 1: I’ve had my hair straightened and colored several weeks ago. Now I’m experiencing hair breakage. What should I do?
Answer: First of all, seek consultation with a hair expert. It sounds like you have a case of overprocessed, damaged hair. You wore out your hair more than it can withstand with two major treatments--rebonding and coloring. You should always exercise caution when subjecting your hair to more than one major chemical treatment. What I feel you need now is some major boost of moisturizing. I would recommend an IRTreatment but come see me first so we can determine the best solution."The one who figures on victory at headquarters before even doing battle is theone who has the most strategic factors on his side." — Sun Tzu, "The Art of War"
(In the light of Pacquiao’s TKO victory on November 14, 2009 over the great Puerto Rican boxer Miguel Cotto, the PACMAN’s career has become an unprecedented juggernaut in boxing history. Manny Pacquiao is now being regarded by boxing authorities, as someone who can be regarded among the great ones like Ali, Leonard, Robinson, Hagler et. al. This force of nature, in a 5’6" package, who seems to defy the laws of physics in speed and ferocity is sparking a revival of interest in boxing not only among ethnic communities, but among American mainstream society and perhaps, even the entire world. I am reprising an earlier article I wrote in the wake of his stunning victory over Ricky Hatton in May 2009 to update and refresh the latest in his victory over Cotto.)
It’s my pleasure to invite everyone to celebrate with me as I mark another milestone and birthday this November 2009.
As God has blessed me throughout the years, I’m inclined to pave the way for others to be given the same breaks toward the fulfillment of their own dreams.
This year, I’ve decided as part of my celebration to showcase five amazing young talents in a night filled with music and dance.
Q: I AM a Store Manager for a customer-service oriented business. I work 10- to 12-hours per day six days a week. I am paid a fixed salary every month. Since I am a Store Manager, my employers say I am exempt from overtime pay. I follow your column and know from your previous articles that the job title does not necessarily determine whether an employee is exempt or not. As Store Manager, I supervise some employees but I cannot hire or fire employees. I also spend a majority of my time doing the same things that these employees are doing – attending to customers and the cash register. Am I really exempt and not entitled to overtime?
