The Best Meal Plan For Your Diet Personality

If you eat less than 3 meals a day looks like you don't care about your body. Spending most of your time eating or snacking plus forgetting to take your 1 hour exercise...

I don't need to mention what would be the effect, but I strongly recommend you to read carefully these 3 eating plans, described bellow, and select the one you like most and think it's easy to follow.

Plan 1

Eat your breakfast, kiss your kids and go to work. Don't even think about food before the lunch-time. You will say: "This is easy, lunch is my first meal for the day." OK, but how many times you eat after lunch? I am not talking about your main meals, I am talking about snacks. If you have a solid breakfast perhaps you won't need candies, cookies etc. between lunch and dinner.

At dinner eat only low calories foods and take a walk with your family. Enjoy yourself, forget about food. When you are back at home go to bed earlier than normal, so you can't get hungry again for the rest of the day.

Plan 2

If you are like me and most of my friends, you just don't have time for breakfast. I need to wake up at 6 am to have a breakfast before going to work. I like to sleep to the last moment, drink a cup of coffee and go out. I am not saying that's healthy, but it's my real way of life.

What do you need to do in this case? Have a solid lunch with your fellows, but don't go too far thinking: "That's all, I will miss the dinner". Take a small meal in about 3 hours. Remember: no candies, only low calories foods.

When you are back at home make sure that at least 5 hours passed, since your light afternoon meal, before eating again. It is highly important to have a light dinner again, or you will put some additional weight. After that take a walk or do whatever you want, but stay away from the kitchen.

Plan 3

Let's say you are a very busy person. During the day you can eat only on the go and don't have time to have a normal breakfast or lunch. Most of the time you eat 2 burgers and a salad from the nearest fast food restaurant. When you are back home for dinner, you are as hungry as if you haven't eaten for couple of weeks.

The result? You take most of the calories at dinner. This means you will gain an additional unwanted weight. If this picture looks bad, I assure you it could get worse!

And here is the solution: get the bag with your low calories home cooked breakfast and go to work. When you feel hungry eat your breakfast. Next meal need to be light too - salad and juice. Never eat too much at dinner. Even if your wife has prepared your favorite meal to make you happy, or got ready-to-cook food from the supermarket, be very careful measuring the amount of calories you take at dinner. No eating after dinner is allowed.

In conclusion...

The most difficult part in those 3 plans is the one, that you should not eat anything between your main meals. But this is another quite bigger topic and you can find more information about it at Weight Loss Advisor. One of the keys to success is to get yourself down to work twice as hard, and whatever you do: do not think about how hungry you are or how much time you have until next meal.

When to Use High Heat on Your Barbeque

While some people really seem to have a knack for barbequing – always grilling up a perfect meal – for the rest of us, it is something that must be learned, not something that just comes naturally. Believe it or not, there is technique involved. It's not just a matter of following your cooking instincts.

One of the main secrets of knowing exactly how to make a beautiful, tasty meal every time is knowing how and when to use high heat or very hot coals.

Though you may have heard the term "seal in the juices" when it came to barbequing, you may even have tried some techniques every now and then, but unless you're doing it properly, you won't be getting it right. For the best results, many barbeque chefs cook vegetables and medium-rare steaks by first using a high heat in order to sear the outside of the food and seal both the juices and the flavors inside.

Though this technique is good for foods that you don't want to cook thoroughly, it shouldn't be overused. If you're cooking a meat such as hamburgers or pork ribs, they must be cooked all the way through in order to avoid bacterial contamination. Therefore, searing them to seal in the juices doesn't do anything but give you dry, or charred food.

This can be explained by understanding the way that meat cooks on a barbeque. As it is heated, the cells and the fibers of the meat will tighten, squeezing out much of the juices. Therefore, if you're only cooking a meat partially, searing it will help to seal in the juices by quickly cooking the outer layers of the food. However, if you should leave the food on this high heat, the inner layers will cook too quickly, vaporizing all of your precious and tasty juices. Try the technique a few times until you get it right. Pay attention to what you're doing, so that when you do accomplish the right technique, you know how to repeat it.

When you are using high heat, the rule of thumb is to cook on each side for a maximum of five minutes (a total of ten minutes). After ten minutes, anything that you're cooking should be moved aside to a medium heat so that it can finish cooking at that lower temperature.

There are many ways to recognize how hot your fire really is, to make sure that it's always perfect for any kind of food that you're cooking on your barbeque. One of the most common tests is simply to hold your hand a couple of inches away from the grill. If you're only able to keep it there for about a second, your grill is at a high heat (that is, over 600єF). If you're able to hold your hand there fore a few seconds, it's at a medium heat (around 400єF). At a lower heat, you'll be able to hold your hand there for over five seconds.

Remember, when it comes to high heat, practice makes perfect, and the perfect is well worth the practice!

Inspirational Ideas for Using Concrete in Your Home

Concrete is an extraordinary material that is practical, expressive, and aesthetic all at once. From a primal and formless slurry, you can transform it into virtually any shape that becomes a solid mass. The possibilities for creative expression are endless. You can grind, polish, stamp, or stain it. You can embed meaningful objects within it.

Concrete has substance and mass, permanence and warmth. It feels earthy, and is at home in both traditional and modern settings. It assumes forms that irrevocably touch our daily lives-bridges, highways, floors, walls... even countertops. Concrete is also surprisingly tactile. Cast and shaped, it can feel like stone rounded by the sea. Textured and colored, it can echo the patina of timeworn tile.

It first occurred to me to make a countertop out of concrete in 1985, when a friend and I were hired to design and renovate a professor's house in the Berkeley Hills. He gave us a modest budget and announced, "This is all I can afford to spend; do whatever you want." Armed with this rare creative license (and plenty of youthful exuberance) we aimed to be as innovative as possible.

This invitation to imagine, play, and explore inevitably led me to experiment in my own kitchen, where concrete and I began what is now our nearly two-decade dance. My first countertop was a single piece containing 11 cubic feet of concrete. It weighed nearly 1500 pounds and took 10 people-and 2 engine hoists-to turn it over once it had cured. We barely managed it, but the piece came out beautifully and is still being put to good use today.

Because of its adaptability, concrete finds itself welcome in all areas of the home, especially in the kitchen and bath, but also in fireplaces, patios, garden paths, or water features. Concrete can also be used as a floor material with enormous creative advantages whether seeded, stained, stamped, broomed or diamond-finished. It can be a sole performer or play the supporting role to tile, mosaics, decorative aggregates, stone, wood, or metal. It is inexpensive, durable, noncombustible, impervious to decay, and also very effective for passive solar gain in the right application.

With vertical treatments, concrete gives us an opportunity to recapture some of the feeling of the monolithic wall-the feeling of substance, of protection. Walls are also a great place to explore form. A wall doesn't have to be flat or straight, but can curve and undulate. It can be textured to be rough as stone or smooth as glass.

Surrender to the impulse... carve your initials in concrete.

Anti Depressants can be the Answer For Both Your Depression and Back Ache!

In many cases it happens that the drug made for a particular use yields results in the cure of some other ailment too. One drug meant for a particular illness, benefits another illness is not a new theory. Many a times some operations also prove beneficial for a different ailment altogether. Drugs apart from bringing in side effects, sometimes also bring about positive effects.

A very surprising fact is that sometimes even prescription drugs can be fruitful in the treatment of some other problems. Could you ever imagine that even anti depressants can bring in positive effects in the departments that they are not meant to? No, isn't it? But modern studies have shown results to the same effect. Anti depressants have shown to have healing effects in the people who are troubled by chronic back ache.

Anti depressants are the drugs that are abused the most. No other drug is involved in so much of illegal trafficking and drug abuse as are the anti depressants. Very often these drugs are taken as tranquilizers and also as addictions. The ill effects of anti depressants range from dependency to death. However, many a times the anti depressants even churn out beneficial effects as is the case with their role in the cure of chronic back pains.

Anti depressants are also associated with a number of crimes. People who are under the effect of these anti depressants, or the people who develop dependency on these drugs are often in a trance and they are found to be active in various crime scenes like rapes, hooliganism, loot etc. Anti depressants as I have already mentioned earlier are also used as addictions. Most of the online or offline pharmacies do not sell anti depressants without prescription; hence it becomes difficult for the addicts to procure the depression drugs. These people get the drugs without prescription illegally. There are people who are into illegal trafficking of the depression drugs. These people sell the depression drugs at exorbitant rates, to the addicts. The drug traffickers make gold but at the cost of cutting down the life span of their customers.

Well, coming back to the heartening topic of anti depressants benefiting people, these effects of the drugs have not yet been established. People who were troubled by both depression and chronic back ache found relief in both the departments when they were administered the anti depressants. However one cannot be sure which particular anti depressant can bring in these results. Therefore it is strictly advisable that people don't switch over to anti depressants to get rid of a nagging back ache. But to get rid of depression one can definitely take anti depressants under the guidance of a doctor. Some of the famous anti depressants are valium, paxil and xanax online. But just like a coin has two sides to it so does any medicine, please ensure that you buy xanax only as per your prescription. Also note that xanax tranquilizers are only meant for cure and hence should only be bought for cure purposes else we all know that life is short.

What is Panic Disorder? Panic Attack Causes, Symptoms, Cure

What is a Panic Attack?

A panic attack is a sudden, out of the blue feeling of extreme fear and discomfort. It comes most unexpectedly and without any warning and you can feel your heart beating fast, feel dizzy, breathless, choked or as if you are going crazy or going to die.

What is Panic Disorder?

A person is diagnosed as having panic disorder if he has recurrent episodes of panic attacks and develops a fear of having another attack. Many times the patient will convince himself/herself so fervently that they are dying that many sufferers often feel the need to go to the emergency room and get tested. Even though this disorder is easily as well as successfully treatable, if it is not diagnosed it can become very debilitating to the individual.

learn more on Anxiety Disorders and Panic Attacks

Panic disorder strikes between 3 and 6 million Americans, and is twice as common in women as in men. It can appear at any age in children or in the elderly but most often it begins in young adults.

Symptoms of a Panic Attack

In a panic attack symptoms develop abruptly and usually reach their peak within 10 minutes. Some of the common symptoms include:

a) Palpitations

b) Sweating

c) Trembling

d) Shortness of breath

e) Chest pain or discomfort

f) Nausea

g) Dizziness

h) Fear of losing control

i) Fear of dying

Treatment for Panic Disorder

Panic disorder often responds to treatment with medication, therapy, or a combination of both.

Cognitive/behavioral therapy is a relatively new treatment for panic that has been shown to be successful. Instead of using old-fashioned analysis-based techniques, therapists employing new CBT methods focus on the present panic -- and how to eliminate it.

People who experience panic are not "crazy" and do not need to be in therapy for extended periods of time.

Some people find the greatest relief from panic disorder symptoms when they take certain prescription medications.Two types of medications that have been shown to be safe and effective in the treatment of panic disorder are Antidepressants and Benzodiazepines.

In addition, people with panic disorder may need treatment for other emotional problems. Depression has often been associated with panic disorder, as have alcohol and drug abuse.

What Causes Panic Disorder?

There are several theories about the causes of panic disorder and since every individual has a different predisposition, zeroing in on a specific cause can be quite an arduous task. Although treatable, this disorder can be very devastating and debilitating to the person if it goes untreated and may result in specific phobias like fear of driving the car or fear of leaving the house. It can result in the loss of a job or even relationship problems.

Fortunately, even with this disorder's rather undefined nature of causality, there is much treatment available that has helped majority of people suffering from panic disorder to cope with this problem.

Pregnancy and Lifestyle

QUESTION: I'm pregnant and thought it would be fun, but everyone tells me I'll have to change my whole lifestyle.
What makes sense? What should I be doing?

ANSWER: First of all, let me say that being pregnant should be a very exciting time, and though there are clearly things to be aware of to maintain a sane and comfortable pregnancy, you should be able to continue the lifestyle you're accustomed to.
Some things should be avoided, however, and strenuous activities such as exercising should not be done to excess.
Here are a few things to keep in mind. Alcohol consumption and tobacco use should be avoided throughout your pregnancy.
There is no conclusive evidence on exactly what drinking levels are safe, and smoking has serious proven risks including possible miscarriage, premature births or stillbirth, low birth weight, sudden death syndrome, and infant respiratory infections. Drugs and medications should also be avoided, or at least until the 15th week when all your baby's organs and structures are well along in their formation (with the nervous system lagging along behind).
Aspirin, because of its anticoagulant properties, is not recommended either.
A daily multivitamin with iron is frequently prescribed since most women do not store sufficient levels in their bodies to meet iron needs after pregnancy.
If any vitamin should cause nausea, though, consult your doctor.
Too many vitamins can be as harmful as not taking any. Swimming and bathing are totally permissible, though douching (especially with douche kits) is not advisable because the pressure of the douche solution increases the risk for rupturing membranes.
Most infections can be treated with alternate methods. Work and travel can be maintained throughout pregnancy unless complications arise, or if your job involves intense physical labor or exposure to toxic or dangerous materials.
Just keep in mind that you will fatigue more easily later in the pregnancy, so allow yourself time to rest. Feel free to engage in sexual intercourse until it becomes uncomfortable. The same holds true for exercise.
Just use your good judgement.
Don't overtax your body and if you did not exercise before, pregnancy is not the time to start a rigorous regime. A 24-pound weight gain is suggested for an average-sized woman, but up to 40 pounds is normal depending on your physical makeup.
Keep in mind that pregnancy is not the time to diet, but neither should you "eat for two." Don't drink too much milk.
Your calcium requirements can be met in other ways and milk can cause unnecessary weight gain. Bearing these things in mind, relax and enjoy your pregnancy.
It can be fun, just as you thought.

Osteoarthritis Pain Relief Choices

What is Osteoarthritis?

It is a degenerative bone disease in which the joints of the human body deteriorate over time. From the Greek "osteo," for bone, "arthro," for joint and "itis," for inflammation. The disorder in the bone causes the patient to endure pain, swelling of the joints, and their mobility is limited. That's when osteoarthritis Pain Relief is sought for.

Both the cartilage and fluid that lubricate joints lessen causing bones to rub against each other with little to no cushion. This also when the patient feels the pain and when they are in pain, they prefer to be immobile.

The changing joint may begin to grow "bone spurs" to recompense for the deteriorating bone, but this actually further increases the pain in the joint. Osteoarthritis is the most usual form of arthritis. This article will list the methods of providing osteoarthritis pain relief.

Symptoms of Osteoarthritis

Chronic pain, swelling of the joints, stiffness, tingling of extremities, skin redness around affected areas, and joints that fill with fluid are all symptoms of osteoarthritis. Joints feel more hurtful and swollen for the entirely day and humid weather wont help because it actually increases the pain in many osteoarthritis sufferers.

Targeted affected areas

Most commonly the hands, feet, spine, hips, and knees are targeted by the disease but regrettably any of the joints can be affected.

How to diagnose osteoarthritis

Damage to bones, joint space, and evidence of bone spur formation can be diagnosed through x-rays. MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) can also show damage to joints. Though many arthritis suffers may have negative x-rays, they still get an arthritis diagnosis due to having all the other symptoms of arthritis.

Acrylic Properties

Clear plastic or acrylic is a useful material that resembles glass, but has properties that make it superior to glass in many ways. Easily available brands of high-grade acrylic include poly cast, Lucite and Plax glass. Two basic types of acrylic are extruded and cell cast. Extruded type of acrylic or "continuous cast" acrylic is made by a less expensive process is softer and can scratch easier and may contain impurities while cell cast acrylic is a higher quality acrylic and U.S. domestic cell cast is a good choice for applications that require the best. Cell cast acrylic is often manufactured to lesser standards.

Acrylic can be used to make various products like shower doors, bath enclosures, windows and skylights. Acrylic is preferred over glass for many reasons. Firstly it is many times stronger than glass, making it much more impact resistant and therefore safer. Generally speaking falling against an acrylic shower door will not likely break it. Also baseballs that crash through glass windows will, in most cases, bounce off acrylic windows. Also acrylic is a better insulator. It insulates better than glass, potentially saving on heating bills. Second great advantage of acrylic is that it is only half as heavy as glass. Thus working with acrylic becomes much easier. Also it can be sawed, whereas glass must be scored. In addition to the above properties acrylic is the clearest material known. It has a transparency rate of ninety three percent. Even very thick glass will have a green tint, while acrylic remains clear.

Another property of acrylic plastic is its ability to be shaped. An example of getting shaped is a bow front aquarium. Also there are no seams in acrylic structures, such as chemical welding at the molecular level actually "melts" seams into one piece of solid material indeed seams that are welded and polished are invisible. Some people have misconceptions about acrylic. They say that acrylic turns yellow, brittle and cracks over time. This can happen with very cheap forms of plastic but it is not so with acrylic. Fighter planes have acrylic bubble-tops. Windows of airplane are also made of acrylic. If proper care is taken then acrylic remains new looking regardless of age or exposure to sun.

Few people worry that acrylic scratches too easily, but unlike glass, scratches can be easily buffed out of acrylic. The only disadvantages on acrylic are that it is more expensive than glass, and if exposed to a direct flame it will melt and eventually burn. These days acrylic is used more than ever imagined. Speaking on a general note all major public aquariums now build display tanks out of acrylic. Acrylic is found in malls, institutions, prisons, hospitals and commercial buildings.

Ingredients of Acrylic

Sheets of acrylic plastic are produced in several formulations to provide specific physical properties required for various types of applications. Taking on a general note the physical characteristics of acrylics are transparency. By transparency we mean that in colorless form acrylic plastic is as clear as the finest optical glass. Total white light transmittance is about ninety two percent which is the highest transmittance physically possible of any material. Second property is breakage resistance. Sheets of acrylic have from 6 to 17 times greater impact resistance than ordinary glass in thicknesses of .125" to .250".

When acrylic is subjected to blows beyond its resistance, its sheets reduce the hazard of injury because it breaks into large relatively dull edged pieces which disperse at low velocity, due to the light weight of the material. Acrylic is weather Resistant. If exposed to actual outdoor conditions, acrylic in a wide variety of applications has proven its weather resistance and its resistive properties cannot be matched by any other transparent plastic material. Also acrylic plastic has excellent resistance to most chemicals, including solutions of inorganic alkalis and acids such as ammonia and sulfuric acid, and aliphatic hydrocarbons such as hexane, octane and VM&P naphtha. Only few chemicals can attack acrylic. Those chemicals include gasoline, chlorinated hydrocarbons such as ethylene chloride, solvent cement widely used, and carbon tetrachloride, aromatic solvents such as turpentine, benzene, and toluene, ethyl and methyl alcohol, organic acids such as acetic acid, phenols, and Lysol, lacquer thinners and other esters, ketenes, and ethers. Another physical property of acrylic is that it is light in weight. A sheet of acrylic is less than half as heavy as glass. It is forty three percent as heavy as aluminum and seventy percent as heavy as magnesium. Acrylic is dimensional stable.

An acrylic sheet is notable for its freedom from shrinking and deterioration through long periods of use. Drawing instruments requiring exact dimensional stability have been fabricated from Plexiglas. One more property to take into consideration is combustibility. Sheet of acrylic plastic is a combustible thermoplastic and should be treated as an ordinary combustible material such as wood. Acrylic has self ignition temperature that is spontaneous combustion is between 850 degree Fahrenheit and 869 degree Fahrenheit. This is the temperature at which the material will ignite in the presence of a flame is between 550 degree F and 570 degree F. The ignition temperatures of acrylic are higher than that of most woods, it burns vigorously and generates heat rapidly when involved in fire. The main products of acrylic combustion are carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide; however, burning acrylic plastic does not produce either excessive quantities of smoke or gasses more toxic than those produced by burning wood or paper.

Surgery for Kidney Stones

QUESTION: Is it always necessary to be operated on for kidney stones?

ANSWER: Well, let me begin by telling you of my experience.
Ralph had become a statistic, as well as my patient.
He had become one out of each eight men in this country, who by the age of 70, will develop a kidney stone.
He came to me in distress and pain.
A while back, he would have had two choices; either he would have been able to pass the stone or invasive, open surgery would have been performed.
Of course, surgery was and still is dictated by some hard and fast rules.
The first is the size of the stone and its ability to be passed.
Usually stones smaller than 4 mm have a 75% change of being passed.
Other criteria are persistent pain or bleeding, partial obstruction, chronic infection, and stones increasing in size.
Well, Ralph had all these symptoms, but as a doctor practicing medicine in 1988, I had at my disposal three noninvasive techniques for the elimination of kidney stones, which I explained to Ralph. The first technique is called PNL (percutaneous nephrolithotomy) and involves the use of a needle to gain access to the kidney.
A contrasting dye is instilled into the urinary tract to gain knowledge of the location of stones, and then the tract is dilated and removal is accomplished through forceps.
This procedure is not for patients with bleeding problems or those who have hypersensitivity to the contrast medium.
A second procedure is called urethroscopy and involves the use of a urethroscope; this procedure is for stones located in the ureter.
The most recent procedure is ESWL (extracorporeal shock-wave lithotripsy), a method first used in Germany in 1980 and approved by the FDA for use in this country in 1984.
This method uses shock waves, which break the stone into small sand-like particles, which the patient will pass in the next two- to three-week period. So, though Ralph was a candidate for removal of his kidney stones, he did not need open surgery.
We discussed the best method for him and he was spared the lengthy hospitalization, the increased risk, and the drain on his finances.
What these three methods have in common are a good success rate, and the ability to make a patient as good as new in a short period of time.

How to Lower Your Blood Pressure - Blood Pressure Treatment

Blood pressure is the force of blood pressing against the walls of the arteries as the heart pumps blood around the body. Treatment begins with changes you can make to your lifestyle to help lower your blood pressure and reduce your risk of heart disease. Excess body weight is correlated closely with high blood pressure, and a weight reduction program can be very beneficial for lowering blood pressure and improving the efficacy of antihypertensive medications. Controlling your weight is a very important step that you can take to reduce your high blood pressure. Losing just a few extra pounds can help lower your blood pressure.

If you are overweight, you need to lose those excess pounds. The added weight causes unneeded stress on your heart as well as on your entire body. Garlic supplements should only be used under the supervision of a qualified health practitioner. Garlic can thin the blood (reduce the ability of blood to clot) similar to aspirin. Keep your consumption of alcoholic drinks to a moderate level, which is one or two drinks per day. High- alcohol consumption has been shown to increase a person's blood pressure levels. Caffeine has also been found to cause adverse effects in people who have high blood pressure.

Ideally, you should only drink decaffeinated coffee as well as tea and soft drinks. Water can lower your blood pressure greatly; many people are using a water fast for a week to lower blood pressure. Folate is a B vitamin necessary for formation of red blood cells. It may help to lower high blood pressure in some people, possibly by reducing elevated homocysteine levels. The herb hawthorn is often used by traditional herbal practitioners for high blood pressure. Increase your daily intake of fiber. Whole-grain foods are an especially good source of fiber. Fiber has been shown not only to aid in the lowering of cholesterol levels.

Stress can cause many health problems and high blood pressure is one of them. Plenty of fresh air and exercisecan help reduce your stress level, and in turn, help to lower your high blood pressure. Several medicines also treat of blood Pressure. Alpha-blockers drugs help your blood vessels stay open. Calcium channel blockers drugs help prevent your blood vessels from constricting by blocking calcium from entering your cells.Combinations drugs combine an ACE inhibitor with a calcium channel blocker. Diuretics drugs help your body get rid of extra sodium and fluid so that your blood vessels don't have to hold so much fluid.

Ski Equipment: What do You Need

Here are the most important things for any ski trip.

Tune Up:
Before your skis are going to be ready for this ski season you need to blow the dust off your skis and get them back into shape. During a day of skiing you can get scratches and gouges in the bottom of your skis. These scratches and gouges cause surface friction and will actually reduce your speeds and your control over the skis. It won't affect you that much unless you are a professional racer, but by taking care of your skis they will last you longer. Skis come with sharp metal edges and every year if not every week during ski season these edges need to be sharpened with a file. This edge is for cutting into the ice incase you hit a slick spot on the slope during a turn. A sharp edge will help keep you in control.

Footwear:
Special hard shell boots are used in skiing. The boots snap into the bindings that are mounted to the skis. These boots have foam inserts to provide great comfort to the skier to prevent things like blisters from destroying your ski trip. The hard outer shell keeps you from twisting your ankle if you should fall by keeping your foot and ankle totally immobilized in the boot.

Your polls:
The ski polls you need depend on the type of skiing that you are going to be doing. Straight polls are for downhill recreational skiing and bent polls are for racing so that they can be tucked in behind your body to make your body more aerodynamic. Just like the edges of the skis need to be sharp the tip of the ski polls need to be regularly sharpened for the same reasons. Ski polls also provide balance for beginner level skiers. Ski polls have to be the right height for their user. When the poll is planted in the snow you want your hand to be on the grips and your arm should be bent at 90 degree angle.

Hands, Head and Eyes
Keeping warm and dry is important to your health, so making sure your hands and head are covered is important. By alloying your hands to get wet and cold you could damage your hands and possibly get frostbite. A hat should cover your entire head and be made from a warm material to help keep the heat from escaping. If you are skiing an have no eye protection how will you be able to see where you are going. At the very least you must have a pair of sunglasses, but proper ski goggles are best just because they wrap all the way around your eyes and are pulled close to make sure no wind gets in your eyes allowing you to keep your eyes open at any speeds or weather conditions.

Insulated Underwear:
Keeping your body warm and as dry as possible is very important if you are going to spend the day outside in the cold and wind of the winter and expect not to get sick.

Ski Pants:
Ski pants have not changed much in the last 20 years. They are made from insulated material designed to keep the wind away from the body, but the newer pants have fleece linings and pocket linings to warm up cold hands. The newest features I have seen on ski pants is actually a throwback from the 20's it's the bomb drop butt flap, and if you are not sure what that means it is a flap in the back of the pants to make going to the bathroom easy without having to undo all the buckles and straps.

A Review Of The Breitling Bentley 6.75 Watch

The Bentley collection of Breitling watches was inspired by the car maker winning the Le mans 24 hour race. All of the models in this collection are beautiful, but if there's one watch that stands out, it has to be the Bentley 6.75.

Apart from the Flying B model all of the Breitling Bentley watches have the same casing. If you are familiar with Breitling watches, or perhaps own one but want something a little un-Breitling, you should definitely take a look at the Flying B watch. It's unique inasmuch as the casing is rectangular in shape. It also features a jumping hour mechanism with hour hand being replaced by a disc display at 12 o'clock. The minute hand is still were you expect to find it. The seconds are displayed in a subdial at the 6 o'clock position.

However, getting back to the Bentley 6.75, it's a big watch, the case diameter measures 48.7mm making it the widest case of all Breitling watches - as stated above, the casing for all Bentley watches is the same.

In overall appearance, the 6.75 is similar to the Bentley Motors watch. Both feature a distinctive Knurled bezel which is a trademark feature of Bentley cars. Both have 3 subdials. Both feature a circular slide rule and both feature a date aperture. But, there are differences between the two; differences that, I feel, make the 6.75 a far more desirable and collectible piece.

The subdials of the Motors watch are at the 3, 6 and 9 o'clock position with a date aperture at 3 o'clock. The subdials of the Bentley 6.75 are at the 6, 9 and 12 o'clock position with the date aperture between the 4 and 5 hour marker. Nothing too different, but if you look at the date aperture of the 6.75 you'll notice that there are 2 rectangular apertures placed side-by-side; the one to the right is for the ones and the one to the left is for the tens. This is a really nice feature that helps set the watch apart from the others in this collection.

However, it's not what is immediately visible that really makes the 6.75 the best. If you turn it over you'll notice the Bentley rim (spokes) design. Others have the Bentley logo (as does the 6.75) but no other Breitling watches in the collection have the Bentley spokes.

If there's going to be one watch in this collection that's going to be the most collectible in years to come it's going to be the Bentley 6.75 watch. It's not as expensive as others in the collection; the Mulliner Tourbillon for example, is specially ordered, allowing the owner to specify casing metal, dial color, even the exact shade of the leather strap. However, for a watch that you'll wear everyday the 6.75 has just about the right combination of style, rugged feel and features.

If I were going to buy one - I wish I could afford it - I would buy the one with bronze dial and matching brown leather strap; this is not only the most beautiful in the Bentley collection, it's one of the most beautiful of all Breitling watches.

Cheap Baby Cribs

You don't have to scour the classifieds looking for used cheap baby cribs. Instead, you can buy a brand new cheap one from manufacturers like Angel Line, Storkcraft and DaVinci cribs. Both These brands, as well as others, come in many beautiful styles with many safety features as standard.

Buying a used crib for your baby can be risky, especially when buying from someone you don't know. You won't know the history of the crib, whether it was damaged or even if it was a model that was recalled sometime in the past - there have been many recalls; Simplicity, Graco and Basset to name just three. All of these suffered serious design flaws that resulted in the injury and sometimes the death of a child. Thankfully, these companies all acted swiftly and mounted large publicity campaigns to inform anyone who had bought their products about the recall of their cribs.

Can you be 100% sure that when you buy a used baby crib that it was not the subject of a recall?

Even if it wasn't recalled, it may be an old model that no longer adheres to today's safety guidelines.

You are definitely better off buying a new cheap baby crib rather than a second hand one. All baby cribs sold in the US have to meet certain safety requirements, such as lead free, non-toxic paint; spacing regulations between slats and spindles; and solid end panels without cutouts.

If you do buy a cheap one, make sure it has a Juvenile Product Manufacturers Association (JPMA) certification. Both Storkcraft and Davinci have JPMA certification so you can rest assured that their cheap baby cribs are as safe as the most expensive on the market.

And you don't have to sacrifice style either when you buy a cheap crib. Take a look at the Jenny Lind crib from DaVinci - you can buy one for as little as $200. It's a timeless classic with a very simple design of turned, or 'knobbly', spindles. Many manufacturers make a Jenny Lind but some will charge a premium for what is a crib of very simple design. Why pay the extra?

If the Jenny Lind is too expensive, take a look at the DaVinci Sytems Alpha crib. This is a simple but lovely cheap baby crib that has hand-and-knee release to lower the drop side, castor wheels and can be converted to a toddler bed so you'll get many years service out of it; all for around $150.

The Storkcraft Baby Rochester Crib is of very elegant design - something you would associate with a more expensive brand. And, your child can use it for many years as it can be converted into a day bed or a double bed. You also get a storage drawer underneath, castor wheels and there are three mattress positions. You can buy it for as little as $180.

The above is just a small sampling of the cheap baby cribs you can find online. Incidentally, many large retailers now sell discount baby cribs online so you should definitely get on the web and start searching for them.

There's no need to buy a used baby crib. There are so many retailers selling so many brands that there is a large choice of cheap baby cribs; just do a little research before you buy.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

QUESTION: I didn't go to Vietnam, but a group of my old buddies did.
Well, it's nearly 20 years since they got out, but they still seem to be messed up and stressed out because of it.
Several of them are still into drugs, while others are alcoholics.
Some of them seem to be in trouble with the law all the time, and can't hold jobs.
I've been told this is typical.
Is it, and what can be done to help?

ANSWER: It sounds to me like some of your friends are suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
The disorder is seen in some veterans of all wars, but seems to be most common in Vietnam Vets.
Those who suffer from this problem experienced an unusual, life-threatening experience that evoked extreme distress.
Since life-threatening experiences were a regular way of life for combat vets in Nam, this disorder is associated with abnormal autonomic nervous system conditioning, high unemployment, marital problems, alcoholism, drug abuse and the inability to adjust after war-induced trauma. Doctors who've studied vets with post-traumatic stress disorder say the victims report recurrent dreams of combat, sweaty palms, jumpiness, irritability with children, family problems, fatigue, palpitations, started responses and difficulty in holding jobs.
Studies in which combat vets and university students were subjected to combat sounds and light flashes, showed distinctly different responses in the nervous system.
The vets reacted to the combat sights and sounds with increased pulse and respiratory rates.
In another similar study, the combat vets reacted with intense feelings of fear, rage, sadness and guilt.
Noncombat veterans did not react with intense emotions. Some of the reasons Vietnam veterans suffer from this problem more often than other vets include the continuous stress of guerilla warfare, atrocities, terrorism, language barriers, the limited and vague military objectives of the war in Vietnam, and the failure to debrief troops returning to the U.S. A national survey of more than 1,300 Vietnam Vets showed combat experienced soldiers had a 23% post-combat arrest rate and 12% conviction rate much higher than for noncombat soldiers.
Treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder involves a combination of psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy (drug therapy).
Readjustment depends on integrating the vets' pre-Vietnam and post-Vietnam experiences. Some veterans are getting disability benefits that would end if they recover.
Some drugs appear to be promising in treating this disorder, helping the patients to feel more relaxed, and less angry.
The psychotherapy must also take into account severe feelings of guilt that many combat vets suffer. Many are haunted with thoughts that they might have killed innocent people. There's also something called survivor guilt feeling guilty that they survived the war, while their friends in the battlefields were killed. We are learning now that all of the statistics of the costs of war are not easily added up into neat columns that provide mere dollar amounts and casualty numbers.
The pain and human suffering continues long after the battles have ceased and affect civilian and combatant alike.

Is A Jessica McClintock Prom Dress Right For You?

While a Jessica McClintock prom dress is very beautiful you need to be sure it's right for you. After all, designer prom dresses aren't cheap and there are plenty of other fashion houses to choose from. So, before buying, have a review, and make sure that a Jessica creation is right for you.

Jessica McClintock has been designing prom dresses since 1969, when she founded her fashion house in San Francisco. Since then she has picked up many prestigious awards and is a favorite designer for many girls looking for a unique and beautiful prom gown.

The current collection is broad, encompassing all styles - many fashion houses like Tiffany and Joli specialize in one or two styles. The company designs and makes more traditional designs with full length tulle skirts, but it is the shorter designs that are more interesting and mark out this fashion house.

The short skirt styles are perhaps a little further removed from Prom than other styles but each dress can be summed up with two words; romance and elegance. This combination runs right throughout the collection. You won't find the more avant-garde styles of say, an Xcite prom dress; Jessica's designs will appeal to modern, confident girls who aren't afraid to stand out from the crowd, but still want an air of romance in whatever gown they wear.

Despite being a sophisticated fashion house, prices aren't as high as you might have expected. A Jessica McClintock prom dress can be bought for as little as $120. Of course, depending on the fabric used, the quantity used and the type of cut, the prices can go as high as $500.

You can't buy the gowns directly from the company, but the company's website has a store locator so you can easily find your nearest boutique. Also, you can easily find and buy a Jessica McClintock prom dress online. If you do order online, remember that just like wedding dresses, prom gowns are about a size smaller than a normal dress. Most online sites have a measuring guide; by just following the instructions provided you should have no problem in ordering a gown that is going to fit perfectly.

Although this really has no bearing on whether a McClintock gown will suit you better than other fashion houses, the dresses are entirely made in America - around the Bay area as a matter of fact.

A real plus point in buying a Jessica McClintock prom gown is that the company makes a pretty comprehensive range of accessories, so getting the entire look is made so much easier - no need to tire yourself out running around looking for those all important accessories to complement your gown. You can even purchase your Prom perfume from the company. Why more fashion houses don't design accessories for their gowns is a mystery to me. So much time and effort goes into choosing the perfect dress and then you have to spend even more time in finding the accessories; it would make life so much easier if you could buy the accessories that were specially made to go with the dress.

Choosing to wear a Jessica McClintock prom dress is choosing to wear a gown that oozes elegance and romance; if this is what you're looking for in a gown then one of them could be just right for you.

Is The Zojirushi BBCC-X20 The Best Bread Machine?

Many people loved their old V20 and looked forward to its successor, the Zojirushi BBCC-X20. But has this new bread machine lived up people's expectations and is it the best bread machine currently on the market? The answer isn't so simple.

The Zojirushi BBCCX20 is an expensive appliance and before parting with nearly $200 many potential customers want to be sure they're getting value for money. Well, it is a very good bread maker. It has a true horizontal pan so the finished loaf looks exactly as you expect a traditional loaf to look like. Its construction feels sturdy and will probably last years. The viewing window, though smaller than other brands, is larger than its predecessor, the BBCC-V20.

Here are some of the major improvements that have been incorporated into the Zojirushi bread machine.

There's no longer any safety switch so you can open the lid at any time without the machine shutting down. This is good as you can inspect how the kneading stage is going at any time.

The old Zojirushi BBCC-V20 had only 1 custom program; the new BBCC-X20 comes with 3 custom programs.

There's a longer first rise of up to 24 hours compared to the 2 hours with the older model.

The bread maker comes with bake protection, meaning you can't turn the machine off in the bake part of a cycle.

As wells as the additional custom cycles, there's an additional light sourdough starter. Very few other brands can offer this feature.

A fantastic new improvement is the ability to turn off the preheat part of the cycle off. This saves time if the ingredients are already warm.

However, there are some caveats with some of the new improvements.

The larger viewing window is still pretty useless as there's no light inside; you can't really see anything once the lid is closed.

The control panel has been modified slightly. The buttons are now smaller, which make using them a little less easy.

Although you get two more customs programs it would have been a lot better if there had been more. This machine is aimed for those who take baking seriously, and those that do definitely like to use their own custom settings and usually have many they have developed over the years, so more settings would have definitely been better.

The light sourdough starter isn't really that good. Zojirushi claim you can make a light sourdough starter in 2 hours but this mode isn't all that swift. It's more like doing a custom program with a short kneading with a 2 hour rise. And, because the Zo recipe calls for commercial yeast it isn't real sourdough (which contains no commercial yeast). It's more like a sponge that is allowed to sit and ferment. While this cycle works ok it will be a disappointment for serious home bread makers. Zo should have made the BBCC-X20 with a program for a real sourdough starter and bread.

If you have an old Zojirushi BBCC-V20 bread maker and were thinking of upgrading, you would be better advised to keep your money in your pocket. But if you don't have a bread machine, or are looking to upgrade to a more sophisticated machine, then the Zojirushi bread machine is definitely one of the better models on the market.

Thankfully, the custom has developed into something a bit more civilised and old shoes are often tied to the back of the wedding car.In ancient China brides wore lotus shoes, which were decorated with instructions on how to consummate the marriage. In ancient Egypt the bride's father gave the groom her sandal as a symbolic gesture, indicating she now belonged to him.

In candidal vulvovaginitis, 89% of women treated with one vaginally administered dose of clotrimazole were cured. Similar cure rates were found with other medications for bacterial vaginosis, trichomonal vaginitis, and the bladder infection cystitis.

Vaginal and Urinary Tract Infection Treatment

QUESTION: Is it possible to treat vaginal and urinary tract infections with just one dose of medicine?

ANSWER: Many vaginal and urinary tract infections can be treated with one dose of medication, but not all.
This is an important development because these infections are among the most common conditions seen by physicians, and one dose treatments greatly reduce costs and the risk of side effects. Single dose treatments can be used in four types of genitourinary infections: candidal vulvovaginitis (yeast vaginitis), trichomonal vaginitis, bacterial vaginosis, and cystitis.
In candidal vulvovaginitis, 89% of women treated with one vaginally administered dose of clotrimazole were cured. Similar cure rates were found with other medications for bacterial vaginosis, trichomonal vaginitis, and the bladder infection cystitis. The drawback to a single dose treatment is that it may not clear up every case.
Still, for uncomplicated cases of genitourinary infections, single dose treatments should be considered.

How To Submit Articles Using Article Submission Software

I submit 3 articles each day to about 25 articles directories. It would be impossible for me to write and submit this many articles manually. Doing it manually, each submission would take about an hour. That doesn't include the time it takes to write them. All told, I would spend about four and a half hours a day just writing and submitting articles.

This job is much more manageable using an article submission software program. I use Article Submitter, by Bryxen Software, but there are many similar programs available on the Internet. Article Submitter comes with over 100 directories pre-programmed into the software. This is a great advantage if you are new to article marketing and you do not have a list of directories that you want to submit to.

On your first time using your article submission software, you have to register with each of the directories that you are submitting to. This process is rather time consuming, but the time you save on subsequent submissions will more than make up for the extra time you take in the beginning. When registering, use your email address as your user ID. This makes it easy to remember your user ID for future reference. In addition, use the same password with all of the directories that you submit to. This also avoids confusion in the future.

Using article submission software, I can make an article submission to 25 directories in 10 to 15 minutes. Using the submission software reduces my article marketing time to about 2 hours per day. That results in a time savings of about 2 and a half HOURS per day. When you add that up, it represents a significant savings in both time and money.

I'm grateful that they possessed not only their artistic vision, but also the sheer stubbornness and will to persevere and see their dreams become reality.So we've settled on the fact that we want to be writers, and that no other dream will do. Now let's take a look at what this is likely to mean in terms of the sacrifices we'll have to make along the way.1.

How the Writer Survives

So it's your dream to write novels? Be a freelance writer and make a living off of your articles? Or maybe you nurture an ambition to write and sell enough short fiction to put bread on the table, like those writers of the golden age of the pulps?

Well, those are all noble dreams to have. I'm smitten by the writer's glamour myself. Also I'm grateful for the others who were, those authors whom I love to read and return to time and again. I'm grateful that they possessed not only their artistic vision, but also the sheer stubbornness and will to persevere and see their dreams become reality.

So we've settled on the fact that we want to be writers, and that no other dream will do. Now let's take a look at what this is likely to mean in terms of the sacrifices we'll have to make along the way.

1. Misunderstanding.

Make no doubts about it – even those closest to us may not understand or even sympathize with our dream. Young authors still in school or living at home should prepare themselves for the advice of well-meaning but frightened parents; which typically will be encouragement in ANOTHER direction. With all that time spent on the computer, you could build a career as a typist. How about data entry? Web design? They have a lot of great courses at the college for that.

Adult writers can oftentimes expect a similar reaction from their significant others; though in this case, the motivation might be someone different. Why don't you pursue something that there's a FUTURE in?

People who give this sort of advice are doubtlessly well-steeped in all the lore of the suffering artist. Parents don't want to see their children go through it; husbands and wives aren't all that eager to see their spouses get caught up in that trap either.

But the real question here is this: are YOU ready to believe in yourself enough to persevere even in the face of this negative (though well-meant, perhaps) feedback?

2. A social life? What's that?

To finish a novel could easily take up a thousand hours or more of your time. That means almost three hours a day if you want to get it done in a year. And this is a modest estimate. Now maybe you're willing to give up T.V. time, leisure reading, evenings out with your sweetheart, etc. You want to be a novelist that badly. But wait! The trials don't stop there.

Your friends and family will want explanations. WHY can't you go over to Luck's and hang out tonight? Why do you never pick up the phone at night (or in the morning or whenever you write)?

Now it's one thing to have college papers to write, or mid-terms to study for, or overtime hours at work. Those are all socially acceptable obligations. But tell your friends that you're staying in every evening to write and probably the best reaction you can hope for is a blank stare.

Are you ready to say: "Too bad if they can't understand"?

3. Rejection upon rejection.

Let's say we pass the first two hurdles. We don't listen to people's attempts (however well-intentioned) to dissuade us, and we plug away at our stories even though it means we can't enjoy the leisure and down time of "normal" people. We put those thousand-odd hours into our work, and when it's all done we're proud of it. We write query letters, mail submissions, and sit back and dream of that fat advance, the book signing tour and the movie offers.

Then the unthinkable happens. We get one return letter after another, and all of them are variations of this: "Thank you for sending us [our work]. It was indeed interesting, but not quite what we're looking for at this time."

This happens to everyone. It has happened to me numerous times, and if it never happens to you then you will be entered into the history books of publishing. You may reach the point where a PERSONAL rejection letter instead of a pre-printed rejection feels like an accomplishment.

Remember the dream. Remember the passion that drove you to devote all those hours to writing in the first place, at the expense of your social life and leisure. Then send your work out again, because you didn't pass the first two tests for nothing. When and if you get feedback, see if there's anything constructive within it and learn for next time. You'll be another rung up the ladder to success.

We writers survive and find our way because we weren't meant to BE anything else.

QUESTION: Does human insulin come from humans? ANSWER: Does cotton candy come from cotton? Think of it that way because human insulin does not come from the human body but is made synthetically to imitate the look and qualities of insulin from the human pancreas.
