How to increase my body weight

Even though I can appreciate your desire to put on weight, I am unable to recommend the use of development hormone products for this purpose.
Growth hormone is produced by the pituitary gland at the front of the brain, just over the back of the nose.
It is one of a number of tropic hormones which control the growth and activity of the body as a entire or of other hormone secreting glands.
Growth hormone is indicated for the long-term treatment of children who have growth failure due to a lack of growth hormone.It is also used in short height children with Turner's condition confirmed by chromosome analysis and for the treatment of growth retardation in prepubertal children with chronic renal insufficiency.
In adults, growth hormone is indicated for stand-in therapy for pronounced growth hormone deficiency, which has been confirmed by two different special tests.
At six feet tall, you are clearly not short of natural growth hormone circulating about your own body.
One's height and anatomical skin tone however, depend upon other inherited factors from your parents.
Boosting energy, reducing fat and increasing muscle power are best achieved through a healthy balance of good diet and planned, graduated exercise, working on different muscle groups according to precise needs.
As for wrinkles and hair growth these factors become more difficult to manage with the way of time as most of us would testify.

Germany Plans:

Germany Plans Limits on Facebook Use in Hiring

As part of the breeze of a law governing workplace privacy, the German government on Wednesday proposed placing limitations on employers who want to use Facebook profiles when recruiting.

The bill would allow managers to search for publicly accessible information about potential employees on the Web and to view their pages on job networking sites, like LinkedIn or Xing. But it would draw the line at purely social networking sites like Facebook, said Philipp Spauschus, a spokesman for the center Minister, Thomas de Maizière.

Chancellor Angela Merkel’s cabinet on Wednesday gave its backing to the proposed law. The bill will now go to Parliament for discussion, and could be passed as early as this year, Mr. Spauschus said.



The law also would forbid companies from secretly videotape employees, though they could still videotape in certain areas as long as they disclosed the fact. It would also allow employers to hold secret investigations when they suspected a crime had been committed.

Germany’s Nazi-era history has made the country extremely cautious on matters of individual privacy. Concerns have been heightened in recent years by scandals involving companies’ secret videotaping of employees, as well as intercepting their e-mail and bank data. The blast of Web-based information tools has added to the restlessness.

The German authorities are investigating Google for having collected private Internet information while doing research for its Street View mapping service, and they have asked Apple to explain its data-collection policies for the iPhone.

Facebook, which says it has more than 500 million users worldwide, with about 10 million in Germany, has come under fire for what some consider privacy shortcomings, as when the site changed its default settings to reveal more of individuals’ personal data. The German proposal, however, is aimed squarely at employers.

Peter Schaar, the German commissioner for data protection and freedom of information, told The Associated Press that the proposal was “a extensive improvement on the status quo in dealing with employees’ data.”

There are currently no rules governing how companies use Facebook data, Mr. Spauschus said. The suggestion is meant to create guidelines for the judges in handling the cases that will unavoidably arise as social networking penetrates further into everyday life, he said, and companies would also benefit from clear rules.

Sarah Roy, a spokeswoman in Paris for Facebook, said the company generally did not comment on legislation as a matter of policy. But she said that the Web site’s privacy settings allowed users to share information as broadly or as narrowly as they liked, either with entire networks or with a limited number of participants.

Diamond Mine Field Trip on Despite Strike


We woke up Wednesday morning to find out that all unionized government workers, including public school teachers, were on strike. All schools were shuttered and we worried that no one would show up for our workshop.

But we arrived at class to find all of our teachers present. They told us this was a once in a life span chance and they didn’t want to miss a moment.

For the day’s activities we traveled to the Cullinan diamond mine, where one of the world’s largest diamond—the Star of Africa—was discovered. With help from a Cullinan tour guide, Ed and I discussed how diamonds form deep in the Earth. The mine is still active today and we watched as rock was elated to the surface to be crushed and washed for diamond separation. This sparked a discussion about the types of careers that are available in the mining industry – everything from geologists to engineers to miners to doctors.


After the trip, we talked about other potential field trips and how to plan a teaching curriculum around them. One major reason I went into geology was to be out in the field exploring. Field trips are a great way to teach students to observe the world around them and gain a deeper understanding of the subject material.
