  • New York City entrepreneur Rebecca Rescate has launched an easy-to-use toilet training kit that will relieve millions of cat owners from the mess and smell left behind by their beloved feline. “When I moved from a large home in Pennsylvania to a small apartment in New York City there was no place to hide my cat’s litter box,” said founder Rebecca Rescate. “The thought that my guests could see and smell the litter box stressed me out.” Rescate read countless toilet training stories, mostly using homemade devices, but could not find an easyto-use cost effective toilet training kit. Realising that most cat owners don’t have the time to become a cat toilet training expert she created the first complete toilet training kit with which owners save money on litter, time cleaning the litter box, and energy from carrying litter up flights of stairs. Plus, it helps preserve living space.

  • • Be chilled-out: Summer is all about shedding your shy guy image and reinventing Mr Cool. Give it some thought. You’re on vacation, far away from home — a stranger among strangers. So shed your inhibitions, flirt a bit, play the field and live it up!

    • Solo does it: Be adventurous and bring out the lone ranger in you. Go on a vacation this summer all by yourself and discover
    the joys of meeting and chitchatting with fellow single travellers. Try this great opening line: ‘Anyone sitting here?’ Trust us it works like a charm… every time!

    • Look available: Body language is everything, and flirtation doesn’t hurt either. Smile at everyone and invite yourself into others’ conversations. All it takes for a man to break the ice with a
    woman is one simple word: “Hi.”

    • Look lost: You’re new in town; you don’t know your way around. Play dumb (but not too dumb) and ask for directions — even if you know you’re standing right on top of your destination. Or ask someone to point out the best local hangout or place to eat; it’s a great ‘quiet’ invitation into asking her to join you.

  • • Define your needs – now…and in future. Research has established that most small offices have a need for mono printing and occasional colour. You must also study your workload and select printers that have the right duty cycle.

    • Create a workgroup – It will bring down your cost per user significantly. Plus you can provide more features in the same cost per head.


    • Choose the right printer – Choose a printer based on your printing requirements. New Business Inkjet printers like the HP OfficeJet Pro K550 offer running costs of up to 25 per cent less than mono-lasers and 30 per cent less than colour lasers. You can find your choice of printer paying off in savings in running costs.


    • Isolate cost guzzlers – and replace them. Old printers have high costs of consumables, maintenance and performance. Negotiate a trade-in, and you will find that you can spin gold from the old printer you had in your office.


    • Maximise productivity, build on reliability – Imagine firing a print job on a network printer – and having to feed paper in the input tray every few minutes. Deep input trays minimize user intervention, add convenience and productivity. Maximise user productivity in positioning your printer location.


    • Build on reliability – There are a number of brands to choose from. What is the installation base of the vendor? Will he be able to provide cartridges and support reliably?


    • Finally, listen to your reseller – but make your own choices. Is he really knowledgeable? Does he know everything about that different types of printing technologies available? Or, is he just looking to make a quick buck?

  • Are women losing more hair than before?
    While studies have shown that both men and women are increasingly facing the
    problem of hair loss, the percentage of increase is more in women. Typically, women who lose hair early are between the age group 22 to 30. They are out of their homes either on work or for studies.
    What are the types of hair loss seen in women?
    These can be classified into two
    varieties. Earlier on, the more common variety was telogen effluvium, the type of hair loss seen after delivery or due to stress. Nowadays, more women are losing hair the same way as men! This condition is called male baldness and occurs either from the side or from the top of the head. Studies have shown that one in every two women who lose hair, have male baldness.
    How does one cope with this?
    The best approach is to detect it early and start saving it fast. At the end of the day, the more hair
    you save, the more you will have! Frequent perming, ironing and colouring add to the problem in the long run.
    How can a woman tell that she is losing hair?
    A woman has to lose about 50 per cent of her hair before it starts to show that it is thinning. Most women realise it long before it begins to show on the scalp, but
    because it is not visible to others it does not attract the sympathy or medical care that it should. In such cases, we conduct a Tricho Analysis for accurate diagnosis, because it studies the changes at the hair root level. I remember treating a newly married woman who was not allowed by her inlaws to even trim her hair as it went against tradition. There has to be a change in mindset where women need to take hair related problems more seriously.
