This applies to white or gray, highlighted and blonde or light brown hair that may tend to become brassy or develop an unnatural color tint - yellow, red, orange or greenish.
White hair has no pigment. Although sometimes that's not entirely the case as a hair turns white. And sometimes there's a dark medulla to add color. The lighter your hair overall, the more likely discoloration from any source will show.
What causes yellowing of light-colored hair?
Water chemistry: Hardness or natural minerals, chemicals used for water treatment, seasonal water chemistry changes all impact whether or not your water discolors your hair. For example, if your water source comes from lakes and rivers, it varies greatly (within drinkable limits) with changing seasons and the treatment needed to make the water safe to drink. Some water is high in iron which can give hair an orange, red or yellow cast. Other things in water (metals) can cause green or brown discoloration. Alkaline water can be also problematic (hard water that feels slippery). It's not just minerals that vary, it's nitrates and nitrites, the amount of chlorination required, use of chlorine vs. chloramines for disinfection and whatever your water picks up from pipes on the way to you.
Hair products. Some oils and emollients, preservatives, and colorings can leave a yellowish cast on hair.
Scalp oils. Sometimes you own sebum can give your hair a yellowish cast. And your own sebum can vary with seasons - sweat, heat or cold, activity level, microbial activity on your scalp. Natural sebum is a good thing. Don't worry about this one. But if you have oily scalp and you are not forcing it to produce lots of oil by over-washing it, wash it regularly - just don't dry it out. If you wear a hat often - wash the hat regularly or put in a hat band or liner that you can remove and wash. Also remember to wash your comb or brush - any tool that is in contact with your hair every 2-3 weeks in water with some diluted shampoo or hand cleanser to remove any "old" oils that might deposit on your hair.
Smoke, pollution. Your hair can pick up these things. Especially close-up smoke like that from smoking cigarettes.
Swimming pools and ocean water. Minerals in pool fungicides can cause a greenish or yellow tint, chlorine can increase hair porosity. Salt water dehydrates hair and causes porosity-increasing friction.
Sunlight: UV light tends to make hair become more porous and it may also induce yellowing in some hair.
Chemical processes: Perms, relaxing can make hair more porous so it is more easily discolored.
High-heat styling. Heat from hair dryers on the "high" setting or much higher heat from curling irons or straightening irons tends to make hair more porous so it is more easily discolored.
1) Purple shampoos or conditioners (or additives) - usually made for grey, blonde or silver hair. Purple is meant to cancel out the yellow shade - to deposit a tiny bit of purple to trick your eyes into not seeing the yellow. A purple additive such as "Ardell Red-Gold Corrector" is a commercial product which can be added to shampoo, hair gel or leave-in conditioner so that it is a light shade of purple if you prefer not to use an unfamiliar product.
2) Bluing. Mix a few drops of liquid laundry bluing into shampoo or conditioner for a fairly vibrant blue - or just a little into a leave-in conditioner or hair gel so it is "sky blue." This color of blue is very effective at canceling out yellow shades in white hair and also in toning down brassiness. It especially enhances cool shades of brunette and dark brown hair and can give blonde and light brown hair an ash (cool) tone. If purple doesn't help - blue (bluing) may work better.
1 and 2: a) Use food coloring instead. You can use a few drops of blue food coloring in shampoo or conditioner, or blue + red to create purple. If this mixture, or a purple shampoo almost works, but you still have some reddish shade appearing, add the same number of drops of green food coloring to the mixture (example: 1-2 drops each of blue, red, and green). Have a mirror handy. If you over-did the color additives, wash your hair a second time.
3) If minerals or metals (copper, iron for example) in water are discoloring your hair, try a distilled water wash. Warm some distilled water and use it for your entire wash and rinse. This can help diagnose whether water chemistry is a problem for your hair. If you notice a benefit from doing this, you might try combining it with one of the suggestions from #4 or #5 below to remove minerals from the hair, or with a purple shampoo or a bluing-added product from #1 or #2.
4) Hard water shampoos and treatments (commercial). Ion Hard Water shampoo, Ion Crystal Clarifying Treatment, Malibu Wellness Hard Water Weekly Demineralizer or Malibu Wellness C Blondes Weekly Brightener. These treatments can remove hard water minerals (calcium, magnesium) and other problem minerals from your hair. But if you have more white hairs than colored hairs or you have very light blonde hair or light highlights, you must do a test section first to be sure you will not get discoloration from the treatment. These treatments combine mineral chelators such as EDTA or citric acid with mineral dissolvers and detergents to remove product build-up. Hard water can exacerbate product build-up.
5) Lemon juice treatment (Do It Yourself). This is shampoo-free. It may help remove mineral deposits and it may brighten blonde and light brown shades. Mix equal parts lemon juice (strain out any pieces of pulp) and distilled water. Apply this to your hair (put it in a squeeze-top bottle for easier application). Work it in well and cover your hair with a shower cap, treatment cap or wrap your hair in plastic. Leave this in your hair with some heat for 3-5 minutes, then rinse well and follow with cleanser/shampoo and conditioner.
The pH of this treatment is very low, so you may want to do a test-strand first to assure it is not too drying for your hair. The combination of citric and ascorbic acids help dissolve and trap (chelate) minerals and remove them from your hair.
You can make mock lemon juice with 1.5% each citric acid and ascorbic acid in distilled water. This will also have a very low pH and need to be used on a test-strand to make sure it does not dry your hair.
6) If you notice yellowing after adding a new product, the product may be the problem. Discontinue use of the product for a while. If it is more than one product causing the problem, scan the ingredients of the offending products for ingredients they have in common. Those ingredients may be potential offenders. Oils, some preservatives, herbal ingredients and colorings can discolor hair, for example.
7) If you began using oils in your hair, or if you have been sweating more than usual - you may need to shampoo your hair more thoroughly. You may find that some plant oils cause yellowing and others don't. Or some parts of your hair may be more inclined to yellow than others.
8) Treat any scalp disease you may have (seborrheic dermatitis, for example) so the oils on your scalp have the right composition and are not over-produced. You may want to avoid tar shampoos (unless that is the only thing that works) because they can cause discoloration.
9) Manage porosity in your hair by using conditioners, protein as your hair tolerates it, handle your hair gently (don't brush vigorously, don't rub and scrub it with a towel - just blot and squeeze dry), use oil pre-wash treatments to prevent "waterlogging." See this post for more about managing porosity.
10) Wear a hat, scarf of "UV buff" in the sun or use a UV protectant in hair products such as Cinnamidopropyltrimonium chloride, Quaternium-95 and Propanediol (they need to be together), Polysilicone-15 or Benzophone-4.
11) For swimmers, use one of the mineral-removing treatments from #4 and #6 occasionally. If your pool allows, apply a little coconut oil or conditioner to your dry hair and wear a swim cap. The oil or conditioner protects the hair from pool water and the swim cap doesn't allow new water to constantly flow past and through your hair.
Manic Panic "Virgin Snow" is a conditioning "white hair toner" (it's purple in the bottle) with no peroxide that is left on the hair for 15-30 minutes to correct discoloration.
Great post! I am learning so much from your blog and really enjoying it. I have been on a quest to mesh CG with swimming, and I also color my hair with a semi-permanent, ammonia free color. Will the lemon juice strip my color?
Always do a test-strand with a new treatment. It is difficult to predict how things like citric acid will interact with hair without examining the hair - some people's hair becomes quite porous with hair color and some does not. Strand-test either a section of hair in a less-noticeable place or save shed hairs (from the shower, for example) and treat them. See what happens with the color. Color can be stripped when porosity is suddenly increased or just when hair is wetted. Citric acid seems to be less porosity-increasing than acids like vinegar - but if lemon juice diluted in half is still too strong, use the recipe on the blog post for swimmers (linked above) - about 1/8 teaspoon citric acid in 2 cups water as a rinse to remove chlorine odor and manage mineral build up.
With swimming, I would focus on using a protectant (conditioner and a swim cap) and rinsing well after or rinsing and cleansing after.
Thanks. A strand test is so smart. Not sure why I did not think of something so obvious:) I am going to save some shed hairs and try it. I always wet my hair, wear a swim cap, and cleanse after swimming. Just want to make sure I am cleaning out the chlorine. Do you have a certain shampoo you like to cleanse with after swimming, or do you mainly rely on diluted lemon juice/citric acid rinses?
When you rinse your hair well after swimming, you rinse out the chlorine that could be actively damaging your hair. The smell lingers, though. When I swam regularly, I settled on citric acid rinses because that removed the chlorine odor most effectively and did not dry my hair which is not easily damaged by citric acid and is not color-treated, but is weakened and rendered tangly by chlorine. Different pools may use different forms of treatment so some pools turn lighter hair green or brassy fairly quickly and some pools never do that.
I tried Ultra Swim shampoo, Malibu swim shampoo and several other swimmer's shampoos over the years and they never seemed to deodorize my hair or do anything but make it feel dry and straw-like. Some people find them effective at removing chlorine odor, but I did not. I think personal preference and individual hair matters a great deal, though.
Thanks for the extra help and suggestions:) I am totally with you that the swim shampoos cause dry, straw-like hair.
Hi i am new here i love hair coloring and i have been colorong my hair since 10 years mostly at salons but recently i have been experimenting at home. I got it right sometimes but other time i have failed just like recently . My natural color is very dark brown almost black i had it highlighted and colored light brown in August 2014 at a salon then in december i used box dye loreal casting number 500 which is a medium brown. Its a semi permenant dye and it faded like in a month then now in march 2015 i got box dye loreal excellence which is a permenant color in 9.1 which is light ash blonde and i added to the dye ardell's red gold color corrector which is suppose to remove all the brasiness and ugly orange color u get when u lighten dark hair and the result was a mess this is the first time i get such an ugly color its like dark brown orange color with light orange roots. So usually i color my hair using garnier color number 7.1 so what when wrong this time was it the ardell color corrector or was it coz i used a very light shade which 9.1 ? Or was it coz of the loreal semi permenat dye that i used in december ?
It may have been an issue of needing to leave the toner on longer or using more Ardell Red Gold Corrector or you may need a different correcting toner. It is difficult to lift a lot of color from hair and not end up with yellowish or reddish shades.
Check out the post in this blog about "managing elasticity and porosity" - some of those treatments may help your hair resist any discoloration from your water and the environment.
Help! I have searched the internets and you have been the most helpful, but still....My hair is boy-short. The hair in front is streaky white and salt-and-pepper (I was originally a dark ash brown). About one inch from the roots, it is yellow, and then another inch, where it is that long, starts to become rusty. I thought it might be from the water, so I put a Water Sprite shower head and filter on my shower. I tried the Malibu packet and it made my hair much more orange. I was using the daily shampoo and conditioner, but I think maybe any citric acid might be the culprit. I am on no new medications and my thyroid was tested a couple of months ago and it's okay with Synthroid--the same dose I have taken for years. Blue/violet shampoos and conditioners make the white roots whiter, but seem to have little effect on the yellow/orange bits. I thought it might be the sun, but since it is hotter than heck here, I only go out right at sunrise. I wear a hat in cooler weather, and the white one I got this spring has rusty sweat stains at the front hairline. I use no colored hair products, except the violet/blue ones. I don't go around any smoke. This only started maybe 18 months ago. Same municipal water, same meds, same diet, no heat styling. Any ideas?
Kbfenner, do you know whether you have iron in your water? Orange discoloration is often iron and a Sprite filter won't remove all the iron when there is a lot present. Municipal water supplies do vary over time and season and sometimes they switch water sources based on availability or treatment protocol based on chemistry and that might cause a change in the amount of iron or in the water and how it's reacting with your hair and other things in the water and your filter. Sometimes municipalities flush out water systems and that creates a pulse of iron that is over in a few days, but remains with our hair.
Sprite recommends "flushing" the filter for 1-2 minutes at the start of each shower, or at least keep your hair out of the spray.
If you try any new treatments, try a patch test first - just an inch wide or so (muster all the patience you can). Sometimes things like the Malibu Hard Water Demineralizer need to be used more than once for a good result. Ion Crystal Clarifying treatment might work instead - and you might use the Ion or the Malibu with a little *heat* for a few minutes - but do a test patch first!
For that matter, when you use products to remove discoloration - if you do the entire wash using distilled water you won't find minerals in your water messing up the result.
Or you might need to try a vinegar rinse instead - dilute the vinegar with distilled water. Different acids interact with iron differently, for some people vinegar rinses work quite well. You might have to use a high concentration of vinegar to get it to work, but best to dilute it at least 50:50 with distilled water.
I find that for red/orange discoloration, for which I use a rinse with ascorbic/citric acid combination, I need to use heat to speed up the reaction of the ingredients - hair covered with plastic with gentle heat applied so everything stays moist and in contact with the treatment. Heat may be necessary for your hair too.
But it's also really important to manage porosity - even in short hair which you might no expect to be very porous- by using oil pre-wash treatments with coconut oil or sunflower oil and leaving it on for several hours or all day or overnight (just enough oil for extra shine) and use protein in products like conditioner if your hair tolerates protein. This is good prevention for discoloration beneath the cuticle. Hot sun makes hair more porous - but if you're not out in the hottest part of the day, then you can't blame the sun. Keep trying different things, I hope one of these works.
The suggestions in #12 above (Manic Panic Virgin Snow toner in particular) might be an "if all else fails" solution for your orange bits. But finding out about iron in the water and which treatment to use regularly to keep your color what it should be, and managing porosity all have a role.
It's going to be hard to do a patch test when it's only along my hairline in a two inch wide strips, lol. I thought that the Malibu made my hair more orange, not less. Argh.
I think managing the porosity is the clue. I am afraid that any chelating will only increase the porosity---did I mention my hair is truly baby fine, to boot. It is only on the wavy bits above the temple, the ones that get poufy when I have had bangs. I can easily do coconut oil overnight. I can wait for it to grow out if I can stop it from staining in the first place! I will also wash the rest of me first, then my hair!
Do you think the citric acid in shampoos and conditioners can make white hair orange like the Malibu pak did, or is it not likely to be enough? I have searched for actual lists of ingredients--oils, 'cones, etc., on reputable sites that may cause discoloration, but can only find general references.
I know - patch testing on short hair is tricky - maybe a small lock at your hairline. I'm a terrible patch-tester, I'm far too impatient.
Chelating can increase porosity - especially if the products are low pH.
Citric acid shouldn't turn white hair orange unless there is something that oxidizes orange, and that is usually minerals or hair color as far as I know. The Malibu treatment might have increased the orange or it may have removed some other discoloration, leaving only the orange behind. So if Malibu Wellness Weekly Demineralizer increased the orange (and here are the ingredients: Glucose, ascorbic acid, disodium EDTA, Sodium Gluconate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate, Xanthan Gum, Citric Acid and Betaine) then you might want to avoid ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and citric acid.
EDTA is a non-acidic chelator and it can be found in some clarifying products - Ion Swimmer's Shampoo is an example. Acids and bases can cause color changes (as can hard water) but EDTA is just a chelator to prevent the minerals from interacting with your hair - no acids or bases. This shampoo might be good for reducing build-up occasionally. Suave Clarifying Shampoo and Conditioner also contain chelating ingredients. Look for Disodium EDTA or Tetrasodium EDTA in the ingredients of clarifying products.
I knew somebody who spent a summer in an area with high-iron water and her blonde hair turned orange from the water.
You may want to call (or check online- some water treatment facilities will list iron levels and some won't) your water treatment facility and ask them about iron and also whether any lines had been flushed when you first noticed this problem. It might help to also note whether you have any similar orange or rusty staining around your sinks or drains.
To manage porosity, there are some tips here (copy and paste the link: http://science-yhairblog.blogspot.com/2014/03/managing-elasticity-and-porosity-in-hair.html). Fine and medium-width hair can usually tolerate protein and that helps manage porosity also.
Depending on the result and how often you wash your hair, oil pre-wash treatments can be done weekly or every 2 weeks. If you get a good result, repeat the treatment when the good result fades. Protein can be used almost daily if your hair tolerates it well - amino acids, hydrolyzed silk, keratin and collagen proteins tend to get along with many hair widths. Hydrolyzed proteins when over-used can cause hair to be stiff and tangly or rough - or overly soft and limp. If that happens, use proteins in products less often.
Wow--thanks so much! I did the coconut oil overnight. Not too much for my hair.
I don't get the iron stains on my plumbing--I know places that do, but they use well water. I wonder if, since my city gets its water from a river, and our rivers are known for their tannins (another nearby river (Edisto) is one of the longest black water rivers in the world---because of the tannins leaching from oaks that line it), if this is tannins. I only noticed the staining after I stopped using a filtered shower, and it has come back constantly for at least a year, even with the filter. Maybe the Ion shampoo.
As a side note, I also have supersensitive skin, and I note that most shampoos now use methylisothiazilinone (or whatever it is) or some similar compound in lieu of parabens. I read on Cosmetics Cop that this can be a sensitizing ingredient, and since the back of my neck gets itchy....oy!
Oh boy, tannins? To keep those out of your shower water would require some sort of whole-house, tannin-removing filter. Or reverse osmosis (I assume that would be adequate, if not equally pricey).
Shower filters do a good job for some things, but they're limited because of the high flow and their small size and the heat of the water.
Methylisothiazolinone can definitely make some people's skin irritated or itchy, so can formaldehyde-releasing preservatives and phenoxyethanol (preservative). There are other clarifying shampoos with EDTA that might agree with your skin.
I hope you can find something that works for you!
Thanks so much! I just tried the Ion shampoo today--still have orange-y tips. I'm going to work on your porosity suggestions, b/c I guess that's the best way to block stains!!
Gosh, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with an English major!
If you've gone grey and are wearing your grey/silver/white hair in its natural color, DO NOT USE KERATIN PRODUCTS. They will turn your hair an ugly, sickly yellowish color. I have naturally curly/wavy (and yes, frizzy) hair, and I lucked out - it turned a gorgeous silvery color when I went grey. I wear it longer, so I went in for a mild keratin treatment to keep it under control during the summer. I went in silver and came out dingy yellow. The salon owner tried to tell me I was imagining it. Then he tried to sell me on how I got a free haircolor along with my keratin treatment! I'm not blaming the salon for the tinge, apparently it goes along with the keratin. I AM blaming them for not warning me in advance, and lying to try to minimize the issue. This keratin side-effect has me down, because even over-the-counter keratin products really do help keep frizz at bay, and keep my hair straight and shiny for days if I decide to flat-iron it. But the ugly dingy yellow color negates those benefits. If your hair still has pigment, lucky you, these products are great. Wish they'd been around back in the day, lol. But I love the beautiful silver color my hair turned naturally. No more keratin for me, sigh.
And there are the purple shampoos like Clairol Shimmer lights which can also help somewhat.
I have silver hair and notice some yellowing especially around my face and so use a purple shampoo etc (it works somewhat). I am considering a vitamin C shower filter but am wondering if the risks might outweigh the benefits... All of the filters look yellow. Any thoughts?
Hello Shana, this response is quite delayed, I have had difficulty getting the comments to load. I have not heard of vitamin C shower filters. I cannot readily find what the filtration media is - if anything. I doubt such a filter would add so much vitamin C that the pH would be too low - that would irritate skin, eyes and nose and undoubtedly lead to lawsuits. Which means I'm skeptical that it does much for hair.
If you sleep with your hair loose, skin products (lotions, serums, toners) could cause yellowing of the hair around your face - sleeping with your hair wrapped in a silky scarf or secured loosely off your face might help if that were the case.
Thanks for the interesting info. I am 60 years old. My hair was white/blonde when I was little and gradually darkened to a medium blonde with Sun-bleached highlights as I got older. Now my hair is turning pale blonde instead of white. It's not yellow though. I like it this way. If it eventually ends up white, that'll be ok too.


A pair is suing their pet insurance policies protection company's potential buyers for kicking them out of their co-CEO positions – before long following they gave shipping and delivery to a toddler.
Ex-commando Chris Ashton and his partner Natasha are suing father or mom business Fetch Inc.'s taking care of potential buyers for employing absent their CEO titles. These buyers incorporate banking mogul Vernon W. Hill Jr. and billionaire hedge fund trader Steven A. Cohen the two gentlemen at first named the Ashtons co-CEOs.
In accordance to the couple's lawsuit, their company – Petplan – topped $100 million in earnings in 2017, and, at the time, they had been accumulating salaries of $375,000 every particular person, furthermore good areas. But factors went downhill in November that 12 months, when Natasha was "visibly pregnant" for a London luncheon meeting with her partner and a one of their extremely to start with large buyers, Fetch board member Christiaen van Lanschot.
Lanschot allegedly explained to the pair that they need to notify Hill and Cohen that they are anticipating, or Natasha's approaching maternity would "derail" the company's pending board assembly.
The Ashtons talked about that they experienced been "concerned with Mr. Hill's probable response to Natasha's being pregnant," they claimed in their lawsuit. The pair also acknowledged as Hill a gentleman susceptible to "blatantly and insultingly sexist assessments." Natasha at some level despatched an digital mail asserting her being pregnant.
In a assertion, the traders claimed that the couple's statements "are devoid of acquiring benefit and we are self-confident the matter will be fastened in our favor." The traders also talked about that they are totally commited to transferring ahead "in the most successful curiosity of Petplan," significantly less than new CEO Paul Guyardo.
Hill's and Cohen's lawyers argued in courtroom filings that it was the Ashtons that broke their offer. The board experienced been dissatisfied with the couple's efficiency in recent durations. And whilst the two dropped their co-CEO titles, their fork out and benefits experienced been untouched. When they give up, the two "materially breached" their deal, and should not get severance, the filings talked about.

Thank you for taking the time to contact Dunkin' Donuts. We always appreciate hearing from our customers. It's important to us to get feedback both good and bad about our products and the service you receive at our shops. We will make sure your comments get heard and shared with the appropriate people.
The answer to your question, CRA #23, is a resounding *no.* I do not have a life.
Thank you so much for your very personal and heartfelt response. In these cynical times, it's nice to know that one person really can make a difference. I'm so glad that one person is me.
Since you've been so open to constructive criticism, I will share one more story to illustrate further the need to improve your doughnut-making technique, specifically, but not limited to, your chocolate glazed variety.
Over the summer, we hired three college students to paint our house. My husband, who was heading in your direction anyway to feed his thrice-daily ice coffee addiction, brought back a dozen doughnuts for them, as well as a keg of coffee to fuel their well-meaning-but- slackerish spirits. The young men politely accepted the offering and, after several enthusiastic keg stands, then proceeded to eat none of the doughnuts. Not a single one. All day long. College students.
My husband speculated that they were all diabetic. What are the odds of that?
I wish I could participate in the recent coffee craze, but I don't drink coffee because I don't do drugs. Well, except for chocolate. The way I see it, you're on borrowed time. It won't be long before they're on you the same way they're on the cigarette companies. And when that happens, won't you wish you had a halfway decent doughnut to fall back on?
I appreciate your willingness to share my comments with the appropriate people. I assume that can only mean the CEO of Dunkin' Donuts, himself, Jon Luther. I'm sure he will be devastated by popular opinion and will enact changes with great haste. How long do you think it will take? Three weeks? A month? At any rate, I look forward to seeing the improvements we talked about in early 2007.
Thank you for such a dynamic customer service experience. I look forward to another delightful response!
P.S. I hope they aren't paying you in doughnuts.
I sent this two weeks ago. They never responded. I can't understand why.
I wrote a letter to Food & Wine about why they and their prestigious selves would print a recipe for butterscotch pudding that used artificial chips.
A lot of my readers had been outraged too. But they did not print my letter.
The problem with Dunkin' Doughnuts is that they all taste alike, which is bizarre. One expects a chocolate glazed doughnut to taste like chocolate...not like a brown crayon dipped in high Frankenfructose corn syrup. Their coffee still rocks, however.
Carol, your brown crayon assessment is right on. Just perfect.
Shuna, it's a plague. The chefs here do the same thing. I'm not kidding. Is it so hard to make butterscotch taste like butterscotch without the chips? Don't know. But, perhaps this is a subject that should be blogged.

UTD(iversity)
Sabur Woldu
When you're walking around UTD, you see people from all walks of life. A Bengali student to your right, a Korean girl in front of you, an Argentinian person to your left and your Indian BFF right next to you. When you're in your classrooms, you speak to people with different experiences — one story of a refugee whose family made a tough journey here, another student from Plano who has lived a comfortable life with absolutely no worries and another of a single mom who is going back to school to show her kids that it's never too late. When you're introduced to your professors and TAs, you that find that they, too, are from different countries — a Russian professor with an Indian TA from very different worlds who are nonetheless linked by their teachings. There is a certain beauty in that. We don't realize how lucky we are to be a part of a community that not only welcomes us just the way we are but allows those who are different from us the same peace of mind.
I know it's difficult to see UTD as the typical college scene, but instead of dwelling on the things we cannot change — such as the party scene or the lack of school spirit — we need to look at how UTD is preparing us for our future in so many more ways than one. UTD's diversity provides you and me the ability to break bread with our brothers and sisters from across the world and has allowed communities from different corners of the globe to come together and flourish in one place. I myself am immersed in many different communities at UTD, and each one holds a special place in my heart. I've met incredible people in all of them, I've mingled with people I otherwise wouldn't have and I've seen the beauty of all these communities coming together to make UTD feel like home for me.
My Habesha community, made up of fellow Eritreans and Ethiopians, helps me realize that wherever I go, I'll always have my fellow countrymen and women by my side, reminding me of the beautiful culture that we have, and how in order for us to preserve that, we need to educate our youth and embed in them what our parents embedded in us. My Greek life community is composed of my Tri Delta sisters and all the men and women of Greek life who I've formed lifelong friendships with. UTD was even recognized among one the best values and most diverse campuses in the newly released 2018 U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges rankings. We are redefining stereotypes and blazing our own paths while carrying our culture along with us. Without realizing it, UTD is teaching us lifelong lessons about inclusiveness, unity and the beauty of our differences.
The state of our country today is more about hatred than love. The U.S. has seen a rise in hate crimes, most recently with the attack of the synagogue in Pittsburgh. The Anti-Defamation League reported a 60 percent rise in anti-Semitic incidents from 2016 to 2017, the biggest single-year increase in reported anti-Jewish hate since it started tracking such data almost 40 years ago. The NAACP has also seen a 12 percent rise in hate crime since 2016. These numbers should scare you and encourage you to be the change. Overlooking our differences and concentrating on our similarities is crucial to the path the U.S. will be taking in the next couple of years. We are more divided than we have ever been and it's up to us as the generation of tomorrow to start fighting. Love your neighbors, respect their culture and see them for their personality instead of their religion, race or origin. Doing your part can make such a difference and allow us to be the change that we want to see in this country.

It can be easy to become accustomed to your property debt, but too many investors become complacent and aren't making the most of their money.
Would you trust the advice of someone who watches medical drama about your health? Most likely the answer is no, you would see an expert. The same applies to your home loan. You should seek the knowledge of a broker. They have an in-depth understanding of the market and can find the mortgage that is not only right for you now but also in the future.
Shopping around should be part of the finance process but what you may not know is that every time you do so a note is made in your credit file. Too many and banks may think you are desperate and therefore a risk.
The old adage of not putting all your eggs in one basket also rings true for property finance. While it may appear to make sense to keep all your loans with one lender, cross-collateralisation can have severe consequences for your strategy. You are essentially giving the lender control over your portfolio and restricting future purchases by not being able to access equity from your individual properties.
Many investors search for finance purely by rate and not what is most suitable. A low rate may look more affordable but if you include the fees and ongoing costs it may well end up more expensive in the long run. Different products have a range of features, some of which may be advantageous and result in savings.
Once you have finance it shouldn't be one of those things you set and forget about. A mortgage is a long-term commitment and not only are new products constantly being entered into the market but your circumstances may change. If you want to save or make your repayments more flexible it is suggested you speak to a mortgage broker every couple of years to discuss refinancing.

Reports: HTC U12 Plus leaks
HTC is currently working hard on its next flagship phone, the new U12 Plus, and according to our sources have taken a first good look at what the phone will appear to be like. It is hard to tell from the pictures that we have seen if this is the same U12 prototype that HTC showed off at a 5G event in Taiwan and that was rumoured to be coming, or if it is a different model.
The phone appears more or less to be like a major flagship smartphone in 2018 should look. The big, reduced bezel display, dual-camera system, are what seems to be similar design cues from the U12 Plus's predecessors, the U11 and U11 Plus. More reports from our sources show that we might not see the surprised robot face that the cameras, flash, and fingerprint sensor which is on the back of the phone.
The speculations of the U12 were leaked prior to this time in this month of March, when ROM developer Llabtoofer posted a list of the specs on Twitter and it shown to apply to everything that should be expected from a major Android device. Our sources tell us that the U12 Plus is to possess a 6-inch LCD display with a resolution, WQHD+ and it is powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor. It has 6GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, it also has a 3,420mAh battery. One thing worthy of note is the return of HTC to dual cameras in a prominent manner. The U12 Plus has both a 12-megapixel sensor and 16-megapixel sensor on the rear of the phone and two 8-megapixel sensors on the front. It carries IP68 water and dust resistance and the OS is Android Oreo, for what sounds like a pretty great phone on paper.
More reports state that the company is moving backwards the release of the U12 Plus until May as it is currently handling a little bit of snag in development, but in the meantime, we are hoping that we'll get more information about the smartphone in the weeks to come as we approach the official date of launch.

Q: Install pip for IronPython on commandline Is it possible to install and use pip with IronPython via the commandline? (I am not doing this via PTVS.)
Things I have tried already:

*

*Looked at this SO question: Installing Python Packages - IronPython, but it hasn't been answered or updated for more than a year.

*Looked at this answer on Yahoo, but the link to distribute_setup.py is broken. I got a copy from here: distribute_setup.py, it terminates with this:
IOError: System.IO.IOException: Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream.

*Taken a look at the pip docs, but this is obviously for CPython, not IronPython.

*Followed the steps on Steps to installing setuptools on IronPython. According to the comments, it worked in August last year, but I got the same error as above:
IOError: System.IO.IOException: Authentication failed because the remote party has closed the transport stream.

*Taken a look at the full output of these errors. It seems to pick up the egg, but fails later on in the process during a call to urllib2.urlopen(url):

Any ideas on what else to try, or if this is likely to work at all?

A: I installed regular (CPython) on my hard drive and had my IronPython Engine setsearchpaths Importing external module in IronPython to its Lib and Lib\site-packages directories.   I could then install packages into CPython and use them in my IronPython scripts.   This may not work for every package though.

12-07-2017. Qatar Rail, the national public transport operator, has awarded RKH Qitarat the operations and maintenance contract for the Doha automated metro and Lusail light rail networks. This emblematic contract, for a period of 20 years, is estimated to be worth three billion euros. The network will be launched in stages, until the end of construction in 2020. This is the first public transport network in Qatar and a key part of 'Qatar Vision 2030', a strategic plan established by the Qatari government in 2008, which sets the development and growth objectives for the emirate in the coming years.
On 7 December 2017, Qatar Rail, the Qatari national public transport operator, awarded RKH Qitarat — the joint venture based on a consortium between RATP Dev and Keolis (49%) and the Qatari company Hamad Group (51%) — the operations and maintenance contract for the new automated metro of Doha, the capital of Qatar with more than two million residents, and a light rail network in Lusail. Lusail is located 15km from Doha's city centre and is currently being built and, once completed, is expected to house 240,000 residents.
This major urban project is one of the most important for the region as 90% of the Qatari population currently live in Doha and its surrounding suburbs (equivalent to 2.6 million people) and 80% of which are foreign workers.
The Red line, which will serve the Lusail City International Airport in just 36 minutes, and connect with the metro network.
The Green line, which will link Al Mansoura, to the east, to Al Riffa, in the west, and serve 11 stations.
The Gold line, which will serve the Khalifa International Stadium, completed in 2016.
The first part of the network will be largely underground and should carry 640,000 passengers a day, starting from 2021.
The Lusail light rail network will cover 18km of track and consist of four lines serving 25 stations in total. What makes this light rail different is that 50% of the network will be underground. The construction of the light rail network is expected to end in 2020.
The mobilisation phase prior to the launch of this network will only last a year, an extremely short timeframe compared to the 18 months usually accorded for this stage of the project. Therefore, RKH Qitarat will have to recruit and train its new employees in less than 12 months. Over the next three months, the number of employees will increase to 100, in order to reach the 1,500 employees required in two years time.
The largest public transport network in Qatar, its construction was deemed necessary, especially as the country will host the soccer World Cup in 2022. The opening and closing matches of the competition will take place in Lusail. Keolis and RATP Dev are already partners for major special events, and will share with the Qatari government their expertise in multimodal operations to ensure the highest level of service and the best customer experience possible for all Doha and Lusail residents, as well as all supporters visiting for the World Cup.
The development of public transport is a key priority in 'Qatar Vision 2030', the strategic plan established in 2008, which has served the government as a road map for the emirate's economic, social and environmental development. The Kingdom of Qatar has strong development ambitions, and seeks to become a global reference for smart cities. After significantly developing its road infrastructure, the Kingdom has made major investments in urban mobility and public transport in order to reduce serious congestion on its major roads.


What is it? Some of the most loving people you'll ever meet are found in nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of the most neglected people you'll ever meet are also found there. Too often they are placed in the better healthcare of trained professionals only to be soon forgotten by families that have moved on with life. God clearly desires us to care for our elders - both individually and as a church. When & Where? Rather than bring residents to church, we bring church to the residents.

On 27th September 1918 at the Canal du Nord near Flesquieres, France, Lieutenant Colonel Gort led his battalion under very heavy fire and although wounded, when the Battalion was held up, he went across open ground to obtain assistance from a tank and personally led it to best advantage. He was again wounded but after lying on a stretcher for a while, insisted on getting up and directing the further attack which resulted in the capture of over 200 prisoners, two batteries of field guns and numerous machine-guns. He refused to leave the field until the success signal had gone up on the final objective.

En la literatura se destacan numerosas variables que contribuyen a predecir el rendimiento académico. En tal sentido, el apoyo parentales considerado como una causa distal temprana del mismo. Sin embargo, existen resultados contradictorios en cuanto a su contribución, debido a los diferentes modos de operacionalizar dicho constructo. El objetivo del trabajo que se informa consistió en continuar los estudios de adaptación de la Escala de Apoyo Parental, iniciados por Aparicio y Cupani (2008). Específicamente se obtuvo evidencia de estructura interna y se exploró la contribución explicativa que realiza el apoyo parental en el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes, considerando el tipo de institución a la que asisten (pública o privada) y el nivel socioeconómico de sus padres. Los resultados indican que se logró replicar la estructura original de cuatro factores de la Escala de Apoyo Parental (Sehee & Hsiu-Zu, 2005). El estudio de consistencia interna indicó valores aceptables para tres de las cuatro escalas definidas teóricamente. Tanto en instituciones educativas públicas como privadas se observó que la percepción de apoyo parental se incrementa cuando el desempeño de los alumnos es bajo. Particularmente, la aspiración educacional de los padres y la supervisión que realizan sobre sus hijos contribuyeron a explicar el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes, en colegios públicos y privados, respectivamente. Con respecto al nivel socioeconómico, las familias de nivel medio-alto participan más activamente en la educación de sus hijos. Se discuten los resultados, se sugieren posibles estrategias de intervención y se destacan las limitaciones del estudio realizado.
One of the main purposes in literature related to the field of education has been to identify the variables that contribute to predict academic performance. Particularly, parental support is considered as a distal factor that operates early over time (Byrnes & Miller, 2007). Nevertheless, studies have not identified how parental support triggers the students' academic performance due to the different ways in which this construct has been operationalized. Since in our context it is available an adapted Scale of Parent Support (Aparicio & Cupani, 2008), the present work aims to continue the psychometric studies of the instrument. Specifically, a study of internal structure (confirmatory factor analysis) was developed and explanatory contributions to the academic performance of students were investigated, considering the socioeconomic status of parents and type of institution attended by the students. In this article, participants were 403 adolescents (male and female). They were attending to the third year of high school, in public and private schools of the city of Córdoba (Argentina), and they were between ages 13 to 17 (M = 14.27; SD = .93). The instruments were a questionnaire on socioeconomic status (Comisión de Enlace Institucional, 2006) and a Scale of Parental Support (Aparicio & Cupani, 2008). The students' academic performance was operationalized by the average achieved in the Mathematics during the two semesters of the school year. The results replicated the original four-factor structure of the Scale of Parental Support (Sehee & Hsiu-Zu, 2005). The analysis showed satisfactory internal consistency values for three of the four scales theoretically defined (Communication: .82; Supervision: .77; Parent Educational Aspiration: .77, and Involvement: .61). Both in public and in private schools, it was observed that the perception of parental support increases when student's performance is low. In particular, the educational aspirations of parents and the supervision of their children help to explain the academic performance of students in public and private schools, respectively. With regard to socioeconomic status, it was observed that the families of medium-high status participated more actively in the education of their children. Note that one of the limitations is the way in which the academic performance is measured in Argentina. Indeed, qualifications came from informal assessments designed by the teachers, so that they can be influenced by the particular guidelines of each institution and/or the educational framework of each teacher. Whereas the variables involved in student learning are numerous -among them, not only parental support perceived by students but other propensity factors (personality traits, skills, self-efficacy beliefs, for example) and even the characteristics of the institution-, the results of this study allow an approximation of how the support received by the parents, particularly the Monitoring and Aspiration, contribute to the academic performance of students. These observations have an impact on education because they might be useful to develop programs to maintain and enhance parental involvement in the education of their children. For example, it would be important to work with parents before the school year to encourage communication and participation in their children's educational process.

Apple temporarily closes North Texas stores due to COVID-19 surge
By FOX 4 Staff
DALLAS - Apple closed its stores in Texas and other parts of the country blaming a surge in COVID-19 cases.
According to FOX Business, Apple's most recent closures affect more than two dozen stores in North Carolina, Georgia and Texas.
In Texas, 16 of the 17 stores will be closed for at least one week. That includes all five locations in North Texas – three in Dallas, one in Fort Worth and one in Southlake.
"Due to current COVID-19 conditions in some of the communities we serve, we are temporarily closing stores in these areas," an Apple spokesperson told FOX Business in a statement. "We take this step with an abundance of caution as we closely monitor the situation and we look forward to having our teams and customers back as soon as possible."
Apple shut down all 53 of its stores in California in mid-December when the spread of COVI-19 began spiking there.
Customers can reportedly still pick up orders curbside at the closed locations.
