Law and Utilities
Growing a city amid challenging weather conditions is difficult anywhere. But developing a community in the desert during a regional drought and amid increasing concerns over the effect global warming could have on future water supplies may seem downright impossible. How to develop water smart, resilient communities in the face of a global water crisis was discussed in depth during a session at the Urban Land Institute meeting last week. ULI brought in a developer who works in the Southwest U.S. and water managers from Singapore and Las Vegas to discuss the latest technology, development plans and solutions to this growing problem. Water scarcity is more than a local concern, it's fast turning into a global crisis. Only 2.5 percent of the world's water is fresh and most of that is trapped in glaciers, which, when they melt, run into the sea.
Achieving the ideal glow different for every tanner
Now that the days are getting colder and gloomier, students may start hitting the tanning salons more often to get rid of their pale faces. For an inexperienced tanner, however, it's often easy to end up with an unwanted sunburn.
For first-time tanners, it's all about what your goal is, said Michelle Grubbs, owner of Max Tan, with four locations in Lincoln.
"We believe in educating our clients," Grubbs said. "For every person that comes in, we find out what their needs are, what they are tanning for, and we go from there."
Max Tan, like many other tanning salons in Lincoln, offers low pressure, medium pressure and high pressure tanning beds, as well as stand-up tanning and spray-on.
In simplest terms, the higher pressure of the bed, the lower the amount of UVB, a burning ray, and the higher the amount of UVA, a bronzing ray.
