Don't be a Burping Machine

Are you wondering why you seem to burp a lot everytime you eat? Burping is a normal reaction when it's not much. But if you burp like crazy after eating, here's you need to take note and avoid.

You might be eating too fast, so slow down! Eating too fast can lead to burping because you swallow excess air as you chow down. To ease the problem, schedule more time for your meals and eat at more leisurely pace, concentrating on chewing slowly. This way, you cut down the amount of gas in your stomach and may even eat less.
Other burp inducers you should avoid as well are: talking while chewing, drinking soda, chewing gum, or using a straw.

If the burping persists even after you've changed your habits and slowed down, if you develop burning sensation in your chest and throat or if you notice that certain foods cause pain in your stomach, you may have an ulcer or acid reflux. Check with your doctor.

The Secrets To Getting a Flat-Belly

Avoid beer as this can sport higher waist-to-hip ratios than wine drinkers do.

A blueberry-rich diet may also stave off belly fat. You can add them to your cereal, yogurt or salad to get an extra fat-fighting boost.

Dieters who take 30 ml supplement of coconut oil daily aside from dieting and exercising carved more inches from their waistlines than did women who dieted and exercised but took soybean oil instead. Just choose virgin or unprocessed, form of coconut oil.

Increasing the speed of your crunches while still maintaining good form activates more muscles in your trunk than doing more leisurely reps.

Eat at least 2 eggs with breakfast instead of bagel. Limit it to 6 or fewer per week.

According to a study, depression is linked to deep-belly fat. Make time to do what you enjoy, and talk to your doctor if you're feeling down.

Add whole grains to your intake like brown rice and oatmeal instead of refined grains like white bread.

Lift weights. Doing it at least twice a week for 2 years can make you lose fat belly.

Quit smoking. Smokers sport more deep-abdominal fat than non-smokers.

Make time for cardio. Those who get regular cardio exercise had less ab pudge than those at the same weight who are sedentary.

Do the bicycle crunch - touching your left elbow to your right knee, and vice versa, while crunching up-gives your stomach muscles more than twice the challenge of a traditional crunch.

Do an hour yoga which can lower cortisol level. Cortisol is a stress hormone that contributes to having larger waistlines.

Call Grapes Your Medicine

There has been great news about grapes. Did you know that this fruit can fight colds, whiten your teeth and even smooth out your wrinkles?

For colds:
Grape juice is the best. Or try a smoothie: Blend 1/2 cup each grape juice, low-fat vanilla, yogurt, strawberries and banana.

For smoothing wrinkles:
Smooth a little grapeseed oil (sold at health stores) onto a crease-prone area before going to bed. This is rich in anti-oxidants and essential fatty acids that can help keep skin younger looking.

As Teeth Whitener:
The malic acid in grapes naturally breaks down stains and discolorations on teeth. Try snacking on grapes that are just ripe, because the acid declines as the fruit ripens.

What's Orthorexia?

Pronounced as or-tho-rex-ee-uh, orthorexia is an eating disorder marked by an obsession with healthy food which is usually seen in people more than 30 years of age, and women are more likely to have it. Some common symptoms are sticking to a stringent regimen, - vegan or raw food diet - as well as nervously avoiding foods with artificial flavors, colors or preservatives.

According to Elizabeth Lombardo, a psychologist from Pittsburgh, compulsive healthy eating can lead to physical problems like chronic hunger because people with orthorexia regardless of how hungry they are, refuse to eat anything "unhealthy."

You need to know that there's a difference between a healthy diet and an unhealthy fixation on a healthy diet. Warning signs of orthorexia are: being overly concerned with how food is prepared, making a never-ending list of foods you won't eat, and focusing on the healthfulness of food instead of how it tastes.

Good news is that a treatment such as cognitive-behavioral therapy works really well wherein people can be helped replace the thoughts that lead to this rigid behavior with healthier alternatives. That can also stop an orthorexic pattern from cascading into anorexia.

I Love Adventure Games!

Although I mostly play adventure games on my Ipad, I also had downloaded a few of hidden object games on my PC as well. I enjoy playing this type of game where you have to search and find things from the list as you go on to the next level.

I prefer those games that has a "story", - like a mixture of hidden object games and puzzles or something like a thing that makes you think and use some stuff you find from the list to solve a mystery.

There are tons from Gamehouse, and I didn't realize that. So, I bookmarked the site already :). The games are pretty much classified according to their category, but I usually prefer picking those hidden object games under the genres menu. It's because as I have observed, most of this type of game includes adventure games which is really my favorite.

Oh boy! Tons of them. For the meantime, I still enjoy free games, and those that I really like are the ones that I prefer buying online. The free games are actually a good idea, for a chance to test of how the story and the quality of the game go.

How To Prevent an Email Gaffe

The meaner and snarkier the email, the more likely you are to screw up. If you can't help yourself writing nasty messages, consider building in some protective measures.
Take note about the "reply all" button and the autofill function before sending your message. Fortunately, they can be turned off in many email programs. Another trick is; - when forwarding a message, always scroll down all the way to the bottom to make sure you aren't sharing something that could get you in trouble.

If you're tempted to fire off an angry or emotional message, compose it first on a word document format to reduce the chance of hitting the "send" button before you've really analyzed things through. If in a few hours or days that you still want to send the message, email it to yourself first. It might just surprise you to find out how sobering it is to read your message in email form.

Stay away from one-word replies which can be terribly deflating. Just think how you'd feel if you sent your boss a heartfelt, page long email detailing a project you're excited to work on and replied on you, "Sure". Don't do that to others!

Email can dull down every sentiment. For this reason, use an exclamation point even if you aren't usually the type. It kicks the tone up a notch. No need to go overboard with multiple exclamation points.

If it so happened you've sent someone an insulting email, apologize the right way by writing an email then follow the apology in person or at the very least, on the phone.
If it's a "reply all" situation, let her decide whether she wants to broadcast your apology to everyone. Sometimes, that just calls more attention to the situation, so leave it up to the injured party, - it's the least you can do.

How to Choose Gifts For Workmates

Dealing with gifts exchanges during the holidays can be tough. You have to consider a lot of options, - like to whom should you give, how much money should you spend, etc...

If you work in a large department, don't give each one one gift. If you work closely with some close people, something small for each may be appropriate.

Try to avoid those obvious and personal items like mugs or photo frames regardless of whom you're buying for. Also, avoid gift certificates or perfumes which are considered too intimate.

If you know your co-worker and her likes or has hobbies, use that information. If you don't know her, choose something she can use at work like vintage pen or a stylish organizer. Other options can be a coffee-table book of photographs or a vintage edition of a favorite novel.

Money is not a good option to give as a holiday gift. An envelope of money suggests that a person may owe you something. A more specific gift card can be perfect like Barnes & Noble or Amazon. She can regift it easily if she wants which can be also useful during the holidays.

If giving a gift to your boss is a norm in your office, it's worth recommending to join in with co-workers on one nice gift. A good trick is to get something for her family instead such as tickets to a circus or the collector's edition of a board game.

Tips to Avoid From Digital Disaster

Learn to take care and save your friendship from digital disaster.

Watch your manners when you're hanging with your friends. Don't keep texting to other people, and try to focus on them instead of incoming texts.

Avoid making assumptions. If you're not sure what a text or instant message means, ask. Get more information before you react.

Before pointing all things that are annoying to you to your friends, take a step back and look at yourself. Try to reflect your own tech habits in your social circle and consider the example you set.

If you feel addicted to social networking sites, set limits and find other ways to spend your time. Try to read, exercise or hang out with your friends in real time.

When you see something that makes you feel icky, talk to your friend. Make sure you're communicating true feelings. Getting jealous doesn't help. Open up a dialogue saying that you're feeling hurt which is necessary to keep the friendship going.

Defending Yourself Online

Today, most personal data are flooded in the internet making people more vulnerable to online attackers and thieves. Initiate the move by taking the steps to protect yourself.

Avoid using discount cards which can let them track your every purchase. So pay cash for anything you want to keep private.

Encrypt your email. Avoid sending messages on an unsecured wi-fi network as this can become so open to everyone sitting around you on a public place. Use a free encryption tool like Komodo IDE or Thawte which encode messages so that they need a decrypting "key" to be read.

Mask your identity while searching online. You can try services like Ixquick or Proxify, an anonymous proxy-search web tool. These disconnect your PC's identifying machine number from the record of the search.

Choose passwords carefully. For maximum security, don't use a dictionary word, and mix numbers and symbols into the body of your password instead of tacking them on the hand.

Self Defense Against Attackers

If an attacker is trying to get you into a car, fight back loudly with all your strength and courage, according to Hartman Gervasi, an author and a black belt self-defense expert trained in American karate.
Most attackers are looking for an easy victim. The more you fight back, the more likely that he'll give up and run away.

Carrying a pepper spray is a good idea because it can help you fight back without getting too close and you don't even have to touch the guy. But downside of it is if it's buried in your purse.
A good recommendation is; carry keys in one hand, and pepper spray on the other. Be sure your cell phone is in an easy-to-reach pocket.
If attacker comes to close or begins to attack, cock the pepper spray into the ready position, aim and spray the attacker in the face.

In fighting back, use whatever you have - purse, shoes, rings on your fingers, etc...
If you're kicking, go low and hard. Try making a shot to the groin that may cause pain, but it's hard to do and you may lose balance. Make a fist by wrapping your thumb around resting beneath the first and second knuckles; this creates a flat fist which can inflict more damage.

NOTE: no thumb sticking up or tucked under your fingers to avoid broken knuckles.

Dealing With a Scary/Crazy Dog

According to Cesar Millan of the National Geographic Channel's Dog Whisperer, follow the three NO's rule; - NO talk, NO touch, NO eye contact.
If dog starts to look frantic, do the following:
  • Ignore the dog. The more boring you are, the less you feed the dog's anxiety and the less likely he is to attack.
  • Make yourself small. If the dog shows signs of aggression, - growls and bares teeth, has pinned down ears, a straight tail or raised hackles, - turn to your side so you appear smaller and less intimidating, then slowly inch away.
  • If dog attacks, put something between you and the dog. - Anything, like rolled up jacket, purse or any solid object creating a buffer in between. Try redirecting the dog's bite onto that item.
  • Cover dog's head with your coat. Toss any garment you have handy over the dog's head. It momentarily confuse the animal, and giving you chance to escape. This technique is considered much safer than using a pepper spray that may trigger dog's anxiety.
  • Curl into a ball on the ground as a last resort. By curling up with your face tucked into your chest and your hands covering the back of your neck, your body's most vulnerable parts is protected. Wait it out and the dog may lose interest.

Emergency Survivals

Unexpected things happen anytime. If it happens to you, be prepared.
  • In a blizzard: During emergency cold-weather situation, the secret to staying warm is to breathe through your nose instead of your mouth. When you breathe through your mouth, you take in dry air which will chill and dehydrate you. Breathing through your nose takes the air through your mucuous-lined nasal passages which warm and humidifies the air before reaching your lungs.
  • In a hurricane: First things first; - EVACUATE when needed. If it's too late to evacuate, seek refuge in a windowless room on the upper floor. Although heavy wind and flying debris pose a high risk, the storm surge (the onshore rush of water caused by a hurricane's swirling winds) and flooding can be just as dangerous as wind, the reason why you want to be as high above the water level as possible and stay away from windows. If you're not close to the water, shgield yourself from the wind inside a room on the building's lowest floor.
  • In an earthquake: Drop, cover and hold!
    -Drop to the floor under a table or away from objects that can fall on you.
    -Cover your eyes with your arms and hold on. If you're on a bed when the earthquake strikes, stay put and cover your face with a pillow. If you're in a car, drive to a clearing, away from trees, overpasses, bridges, tall buildings and overhead wires.
  • In an electrical storm: If you're in an open area, stay away from trees or poles and get into a modified couch. Bend head forward, keep elbows tightly by sides, wrap arms around knees (don't let hands touch the ground), and raise heels slightly off the ground, so your full foot isn't on the ground.

In January, Mumma, Director of NASA's Goddard Center for Astrobiology has announced his results: "broad plumes of methane emanate from the planet's surface."
They tracked the methane, expecting to find the gas spread uniformly, - but they instead detected localized clouds that only appear at certain times, - once in 2003 and again in 2005, during the Martian northern summer and southern spring. They found plumes that exist only in warmer periods when methane is released along the water.
The variability of methane suggests that the gas may be spewed by an ongoing geologic process like volcanism, or possibly through the metabolic activity of microbes. If underground life is the source, methane might be released during the warmer months as the ice melts.
According to Novak, a physicist in New Rochelle, New York, if life existed on Mars, it would break down chemically and methane would be a product.
The search is still on. In 2011, NASA's Mars Science Laboratory will touch down to sniff out evidence for methane, other organics, and life.

All About Your Stainless Steel Needs

One good thing why online shopping is much more preferred is because mostly, the things you're looking for are more complete compared to going to your favorite store.
Take for example if you need stainless steels for your home, The Stainless Steel Store would be a good one-stop shop online for you to get all your need; - whether they are for your kitchen, cooking purposes, dining, decorating or for your home outdoors, you can take the convenience of shopping where it's all there.
Don't forget to check blomus stainless steel fireplace accessories if you need one, because they are highly the best sellers. Be sure your fireplace is highly equipped to handle everything as well, in preparation for the fast approaching winter season.
A stainless steel mailbox is also one good quality to consider when you need one for your home. You might just want to check your old mailbox as it may need further upgrade ;). The Stainless Steel Store is the place to go to if you want to save to get your mailbox.
And hey, it's not yet too late to consider checking on the stainless steel fireplace accessories.

Overcoming Your Most Embarrassing Body Problems

Are you still treating nasty conditions such as dandruff and rank feet with your old fashioned powders, balms and shampoos? It's now time to upgrade! They work better and a lot less humiliating.
  • Foot odor: Use the right soap such as an antibacterial products like Dial or Phisoderm especially when you focus on the bacteria between your toes. Keep your feet as dry as possible by blasting your soles with a hair dryer on the cold setting before you apply powders or put on breathable socks.
  • Dandruff: Natural medicine practitioners suggest scarfing down garlic and oregano that has antifungal properties. Most doctors suggest lathering up 2x a week with a high-powered shampoo like Nizoral 1% which kills yeast directly.
  • Sweaty palms: Invest in the $140 Drionic. This device sends an electric current into your skin, shrivelling your sweat glands for close to 24 hours. More serious options include annual Botox injections and sympathectomy, a surgery which stops sweating by severing the nerve between your neck and your arms.
  • Bad breath: Using a saline nasal spray and sleeping with humidifier (especially during dry winter months) is worth recommending. Stock up on sugar-free yogurt and black tea; - studies find that both fight the sulfuric compounds that create the stank.

Things You Need to Know About Computer Hacking

Originally, the term "hacker" meant "one who makes furniture with an ax." It's probably because of the blunt nature of that approach, the word came to mean someone who takes pleasure in an unconventional solution to a technical obstacle.
It was in the late 1950's that computer hacking started when members of MIT's Tech Model Railroad Club became obsessed with electrical switching began preparing punch cards to control an IBM 704 mainframe.
A code that illuminates lights on the mainframe's console was one of the club's early programs, which made it look like a ball zipping from left to right, then vice versa with the flip of a switch.
Hacker "Cap'nCrunch" also known as John Draper used a toy whistle to match the 2,600 hertz tone used by AT&T's long distance switching system, which gave him access to call routing way back in the early 1970's.
Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs who are both Apple founders made and sold "blue boxes", - the electronic versions of Draper's whistle before they become rich.
Using a blue box, Wozniak crank-called the Pope's residence in Vatican City and pretended he was Henry Kissinger.
Hollywood movies in 1983 such as WarGames, was about a whiz kid who breaks into a Defense Department computer and hijacks a payphone by hot-wiring it with a soda can pull-ring at one point. This was when hacking came through Hollywood.
Six Milwaukee teens hacked Los Alamos National Lab in 1983 which develops nuclear weapons.
In 1988, a worm which was a self-replicating program was created by Robert T. Morris purportedly to evaluate internet security.
The worm created a multi million dollar havoc when it reproduced too well, that led to Morris' felony conviction, one of the first under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.
The 97 US Navy, Army, Pentagon and NASA computers were hacked by a British, - Gary McKinnon in 2001-2002. His defense; - he wasn't hunting military secrets; he was only seeking suppressed government files about space aliens.
According to a rumore, agents of China's People's Liberation Army attempted to hack the US power grid, triggering the great North American blackout of 2003.
Scott Lunsford, an IBM researcher took just one day to penetrate the network of a nuclear power station.
When West Point holds its annual cyberwar games, the troops wear full fatigues while fighting an enemy online; - concept was still unclear.
Charlie Miller, a security researcher, used a flaw in Safari to break into Mcbook in as short as 10 seconds. So, if you think your Mac is hackproof, think again!
Tadayoshi Kohno from University of Washington recently hacked into a wireless defibrillator, causing it to deliver fatal strength jolts of electricity.
And the greatest kludge of all...Roger Angel from University of Arizona has proposed building a giant sunscreen in space to hack the planet's climate!

Fixing a Flat Tire

Don't always depend calling AAA or another service when you get a flat tire. But smart women still need to know how to change a tire, just in case. Here's how:
  1. Get off the road, put car in park, set the parking brake, put your hazard lights on, and turn off the car. Gather a jack, lug wrench or tire iron, spare tire and your owner's manual. Put reflective triangles about 5 car lengths behind you to give other drivers plenty of notice. Wedge two pieces of wood beneath the wheel that's positioned diagonal to your flat tire.
  2. Pop off the hubcap with the flat end of your lug wrench to reveal the lug nuts that hold the tire on. (Some nuts have plastic covers that you remove by hand). Place lug wrench on a nut with the handle facing to the left, and then stand on the wrench handle. Loosen nut a few more turns but don't remove it yet. Do it with each of the lug nuts.
  3. Position the jack where the manual instructs (some have slots by each tire,) and expand it until tire is just off the ground.
  4. Remove the lug nuts by hand and put them in your purse or pocket, where they won't get lost. Slide the flat tire off.
  5. Line up the spare with the lugs and slide the tire on. Screw the lug nuts on loosely by hand - don't apply too much pressure, which could rock your car enough to make it slip off the jack. Lower the jack until the car is resting on the ground.
  6. Tighten each lug nut with the lug wrench, handle facing toward the right this time. Step on the wrench and continue to tighten until the nut doesn't move. Tighten the remaining lug nuts in the following order:
  • the 2nd lug nut should be the one diagonally across from the first; then tighten the nut that is diagonally across from that one and so on.
  • Tighten all the lug nuts as much as possible. You can now drive using your spare (check your owner's manual for maximum speed and distance your spare is good for.)
  • Replace your flat tire and spare as soon as possible.
