Jurors are often expected to examine extremely violent and disturbing cases, but despite a report from the justice committee urging change, advocates argue there is still a lack of counselling and support.

The project succeeded, somewhat miraculously, placing Pathfinder on Mars in 1997, despite a razor-thin budget in space terms — just $ 175 million — while relying on a parachute, a honeycombed air bag system and a bouncing landing.

When von Lossberg recounted this story at dinner parties, people would react with amazement — or with fury that the “crazy” mission was paid for by tax dollars, the 49-year-old recalls. In present-day Missoula, Montana, folks are having similarly polarized reactions to another project of his, one that in Big Sky Country sounds as outlandish and perhaps even more implausible: passing gun reform.

[Montana] families pass guns from generation to generation, with some households owning more than two dozen firearms.

The first-term city councilman with shock-white hair belongs to a small swath of gun control advocates working in the red heart of conservative states. Von Lossberg took up the issue two years ago, when a Moms Demand Action chapter came to him concerned. The state has had one of the nation’s highest suicide rates for nearly 40 years, the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services reported last year. And while its high schoolers attempted suicide at a similar rate to the rest of the country, Montana children ages 11 to 17 were far more likely to complete the act — with 11 suicides in 2014 (the most recent year of data), and double the national rate for the same age group. What’s more, in the past 10 years of study, 65 percent of youth suicides involved firearms. Those figures stunned von Lossberg, and in October he led the Missoula City Council to an 8-4 resolution requiring background checks for all private sales. “They’re trying to fulfill their obligation to the citizens by enacting a law that they believe to be legally sound and has been proven to save lives,” says Laura Cutilletta, legal director for the Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence.

What von Lossberg has accomplished is unprecedented in recent Treasure State history — and for good reason, critics say, because it may be unconstitutional. Montana is one of 40 states with a “pre-emption law” barring local municipalities from restricting gun access without statehouse approval. In full knowledge of this, “they forged ahead … and created a lot of turbulence and distress in the community that was unnecessary,” says Gary Marbut, president of the Montana Shooting Sports Association and author of Gun Laws of Montana. With the pre-emption law in place, it wasn’t surprising when, in January, Montana’s Republican Attorney General Tim Fox opined that von Lossberg’s ordinance was illegal, leaving the measure virtually unenforcable.

Perhaps, but von Lossberg, with support from the city attorney, believes the case has merit if they pursue it. He references a state code saying localities can “prevent and suppress” firearm possession by felons, undocumented immigrants, the mentally ill and minors — legitimizing his push for background checks, he argues, with a nod toward local control. “There’s a significant amount of people that don’t take kindly to the trampling of the city’s ability to do this within its jurisdiction,” he says. Which leaves the former space engineer with a conundrum: Should he idle in neutral, or shoot for the moon, enforce the resolution and wage what will surely be a costly court battle against the state? Hanging in the balance is not just Missoula’s welfare — should von Lossberg prevail, the measure could also pave the way for other jurisdictions to fight for local control on gun issues.

With his bicycle helmet beside him, von Lossberg explains his philosophical journey on gun issues. After graduating in environmental studies from the University of Montana, he learned how to hunt from a former classmate who gifted him his first rifle. Years later, when von Lossberg advanced the background check legislation, the same friend confided that when he resold his guns, the sale was contingent on the buyer agreeing to a background check, even though it wasn’t required. It was a moral and practical issue, the friend said, to ensure that the guns never fell into the wrong hands — a sentiment von Lossberg heard echoed by gun owners in town hall meetings. Today, the married father talks about teaching his 5-year-old daughter to hunt someday, and preaching the background check system he urgently espouses.

Still, many Montanans don’t see the need for such measures. “Suicide is a much more complex problem” than simply access to guns, Marbut argues, although he doesn’t deny the state’s high suicide rate. He views folks like von Lossberg, a California transplant, as imports trying to change the state ethos, a culture in which families pass guns from generation to generation, with some households owning more than two dozen firearms. Marbut believes roughly 9 in 10 households in Montana own guns, an “educated guess,” he says, based on studying firearm and ammunition sales data.

Von Lossberg concedes that many of those who approved of the ordinance don’t want to see the city dragged into a lengthy court battle, especially after it just ended a years-long case to gain control of the local water utility. While the ordinance sits in limbo, von Lossberg is betting on the long game, noting that even Missoula, now a thriving city, was once the bottom of a glacial lake. “I’m much more a believer in glacial, incremental change,” he says.

The UK has the power to unilaterally stop the Brexit process, the EU’s top legal advisers have said, contradicting statements from London that stated Article 50 could only be stopped with agreement of all 27 EU member states.

The advocate general, in a report prepared for the European Court in Strasbourg, stated that the UK could suspend the already triggered two-year Article 50 process, according to a lawyer for the group that brought forward the case.

“Advocate General Campos Sanchez-Bordona proposes that the Court of Justice should declare that Article 50 … allows the unilateral revocation of the notification of the intention to withdraw from the EU,” the bloc’s top court’s statement read.

The Advocate General’s opinions are not binding, judges will now decide on whether or not to accept his advice, though the have a tendency to do so in most cases.

Democrat Mignon Clyburn is leaving the Federal Communications Commission after nine years of service. As part of the FCC’s Democratic majority from 2009 through 2016, Clyburn repeatedly voted for consumer-protection regulations over the objections of Internet service providers. More recently, Clyburn has been on the losing end of many votes as the FCC’s new Republican majority deregulates the broadband and telecom industries.

Clyburn’s term expired in June 2017, but commission rules allowed her to stay until the end of 2018 if she had chosen to do so. Rather than seek a new five-year term, she announced that today’s FCC meeting would be her last.

Being an FCC commissioner has been “the most incredible opportunity for me,” Clyburn said at the meeting. “In my wildest dreams, if I could have crafted my destiny, I never would have dreamed of this.”

  • There are many myths out there about hair loss and what causes it.
  • Washing your hair too frequently is one of them, according to hair doctor Anabel Kingsley.
  • You should ideally wash your hair every day, and never leave more than three days in between shampooing, she says.

 

There are plenty of myths out there about how often you should wash your hair. One of those, according to trichologist Anabel Kingsley, is that washing your hair too often will damage it or cause it to fall out.  

Many people say that you should only wash your hair once or twice a week, and berate anyone who shampoos any more than that. Kim Kardashian once proudly claimed that she only washes her hair twice a week — but then not everyone is blessed with a Kardashian head of hair.

The common argument is that frequent shampooing will strip the hair of its natural oils and dry it out.

But Kingsley, daughter of the late “celebrity hair doctor” Philip Kingsley who has spent years studying the hair and scalp at their clinic, disagrees. 

Speaking from personal experience, Kingsley, who recently spoke out about suffering from hair loss following the death of her father, told Business Insider: “Shampooing can be really really upsetting for people suffering from hair thinning because when you massage the shampoo into your hair all of the hairs that were ready to fall come out at once instead of gradually.”

But it’s not falling in reaction to being washed too frequently, she said.

It’s no different than your skincare regime

“You should think of washing your hair as a a skincare regime, after all your scalp is just skin,” Kingsley told BI. “It has oil and sweat glands, and with all of the secretions being produced, added to pollution, you don’t want it sitting on there for days.”

Hair gets greasy for the same reason that your face gets oily: the glands in the skin produce a substance called sebum, which keeps hair from drying out.

The sebaceous glands that produce sebum sit next to the hair’s roots in the layer of skin called the dermis. Channels from the sebaceous glands lead to the hair follicle — that’s how sebum secretes onto your scalp. Take a look at this diagram.

“Ideally we say you should wash your hair everyday, and certainly if you have greasy hair,” Kingsley said. “Every follicle has an oil gland attached to it and people with fine hair usually have more hairs on the scalp, therefore you’ll find hair gets really quite greasy by the end of the day, and the only way to get rid of it is by shampooing.

“If you have really coarse hair and shampooing each day isn’t realistic because you need to use straighteners etc., then you should definitely not leave it more than three days in between.”

Hair is tougher than you think

Hair specialists at The Belgravia Centre agree that anyone with greasy hair ought to wash their daily, and say that they usually advise their clients about hair washing on an individual basis, depending on their hair type.

Daiva Valioniene, a Belgravia nurse who specialises in hair loss, added: “If you have thinning hair, washing it more often would be a positive because it can look fuller once it is washed.”

The hair shaft is also pretty resilient, according to Kurt Stenn, author of “Hair: A Human History,” but the trick is to use a gentle shampoo.

He previously told Business Insider that the hair shaft is “a very tough structure and can handle a lot of trauma, [including] washing.”

“In fact,” he said, “gentle washing could be done several times a week or even every day if it’s gentle enough. If it’s harsh, then even once a week is going to be too much.

“You should use the most gentle shampoo possible because the hair shaft itself is not growing so it can’t repair itself and once you destroy a shaft it’s destroyed.”
