Protective hairstyle

A protective hairstyle is a way of putting human hair so that it will not break or become dirty.  Most of the time, when people talk about protective hairstyles, they mean natural African hair.  A protective hairstyle tucks the ends of the hair into a braid, twist, or other shape so that they do not show.  This stops the hair from moving, which makes it less likely to break or wear out.

According to hair artist and author Jennifer Lord, protective hairstyles keep hair from being too dry.  They also make it so the person does not have to brush or move the hair as often.  This helps the person "retain length," meaning their hairs will not break.  A person with a protective hairstyle also does not need to spend much time styling his or her hair every day.

History

People have worn protective hairstyles for all of history.  Archaeologists have found proof of protective hairstyles from 30,000 years ago.  Some Egyptian bodies from 3000 years ago had protective hairstyles.

Law

Hair and hairstyles are part of the history of race on Earth.  In some places, for example the United States, employers have told employees, usually African American employees, to go home and change their hair or else be fired.  People with African hair must take time and spend money to change their hair so it looks like a white person's hair.  Some places have passed Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair (CROWN) laws.  CROWN laws are anti-discriminiation laws.  This means an employer cannot fire an employee for wearing a protective hairstyle and cannot force an employee to try to make their hair look like a white person's hair.  For example, New York State added rules about protective hairstyles to its human rights law in 2019.

Carnitine

Carnitine is a quaternary ammonium compound (or salts of quaternary ammonium cations; those cations are positively charged polyatomic ions of the structure , where R is an alkyl group or an aryl group).

Carnitine is part of (the process of)  metabolism in most mammals, plants, and some bacteria. 

During energy metabolism (or during the process of generating energy (ATP) from nutrients), Carnitine transports long-chain fatty acids into mitochondria so that it can be oxidized for energy production; Carnitine also also takes part in removing products of metabolism from cells. Because of its key roles (or important roles), carnitine is concentrated in tissues - or much carnitine can be found in tissues - like skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle that metabolize fatty acids as an energy source.

Doping in sport

L-Carnitine is not on the doping list of World Anti-Doping Agency, or WADA, but people in sport got punishment in 2019, for [the way that they] used L-Carnitine. (See doping in sport.)

Mary Jackson

Mary Jackson (née Winston; April 9, 1921 – February 11, 2005) was an American mathematician and aerospace engineer. She worked for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), at  Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. She also worked for the organization that was there before NASA was founded in 1958. In 1951, she started at National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA). At first, she was a computer, a person doing advanced scientific calculations.  She took advanced engineering classes and, in 1958, became NASA's first black female engineer. Today, she is known as an important figure in what is known as the Space Race.

Life
After 34 years at NASA, Jackson had earned the most senior engineering title available. She realized she could not earn further promotions without becoming a supervisor. She accepted a demotion to become a manager of both the Federal Women's Program, in the NASA Office of Equal Opportunity Programs and of the Affirmative Action Program. In this role, she worked to influence the hiring and promotion of women in NASA's science, engineering, and mathematics careers.

In 2016, the book Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Who Helped Win the Space Race was written, about her life. The book was also made into a movie, released the same year. 

In 2019, Jackson was posthumously awarded the Congressional Gold Medal. In 2021, the Washington, D.C. headquarters of NASA was renamed the Mary W. Jackson NASA Headquarters. NASA held a virtual ceremony for the naming.

Legacy 
The 2016 film Hidden Figures recounts the NASA careers of Jackson, Katherine Johnson, and Dorothy Vaughan, specifically their work on Project Mercury during the Space Race. The film is based on the book of the same name by Margot Lee Shetterly. Jackson is portrayed in the film by Janelle Monáe.

In 2018, the Salt Lake City School Board voted that Jackson Elementary School in Salt Lake City, Utah, would from then on be officially named after Mary Jackson rather than (as it used to be) after President Andrew Jackson.

NASA's headquarters building in Washington, D.C. was renamed the Mary W. Jackson NASA Headquarters on February 26, 2021.

Charles Grey, 1st Earl Grey

Charles Grey, 1st Earl Grey, later Baron Grey De Howick (1730-1795) was a British fighter.  He fought in the American Revolutionary War.

Early life

Grey was born into an important family.  He was born at their large house in Howick, Northumberland, England. Grey's father was a baronet.  They had lived in and ruled Howick since the 1200s.  Grey's two older brothers died before they could have their own children, but when Grey was a boy, he did not think he would inherit his father's land.  So he went into the military in 1944.

Military career

Grey fought in the War of Austrian Succession, Jacobite Rebellion, and Seven Years' War.  He made friends with other British fighters, for example James Wolfe, William Petty, and the Earl of Shelburne.  He was aide-de-camp to Prince Ferdinand of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel.  Grey learned to fight.

American Revolutionary War

Grey became lieutenant colonel in 1777.  He commanded one of General William Howe's brigades.  Grey fought in the Battle of Brandywine and surprised General Anthony Wayne at the Battle of Paoli.  At Paoli, Grey told his men to charge with their bayonets.  Military historians say it was one of the best moves of the entire war.  He told his men to take the flints out of their guns so that they would not make sparks that the Continental soldiers could see or fire accidental gunshots that the Continental soldiers could hear.  This got him the nickname "'No Flint' Grey." But some people on both sides of the war said Grey had not acted honorably.  They called the Battle of Paoli the "Paoli Massacre" instead.

Grey fought at the Battle of Germantown and Battle of Monmouth.  He surprised more Continental troops in Tappan, New York and killed them.  Later, people would call this the Baylor Massacre.

In 1778, King George III promoted Grey to Lieutenant General and made him a knight of the Order of the Bath.

Later career
Grey retired from the army but only for a short while.  He went to Howick and built a new house there, Howick Hall.  He hired an architect called William Newton. Then Grey worked as an army administrator.  He was aide-de-camp to King George III and fought against the French in Belgium and the Caribbean.

King George made Grey governor of Guernsey in 1797.  He made Grey a baron in 1801.  In 1806, he made Grey 1st Earl Grey and Viscount Howick.

Family

Grey married Elizabeth Grey of Southwick in 1762. They had eight children including Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey.
