Quitting Out From Smoking

Are you hooked on cigarettes? I know many are still having a hard time kicking the habit but the experts say there are tips that help:

Many teens try to keep smoking hidden from their families. But letting friends and relatives know that you're trying to quit is an essential step to address the addiction.

There are tobacco-cessation programs that can help almost double the likelihood that young smokers will successfully quit. Examples are the ALA Helpline at (800) LUNG-USA or N-O-T (notontobacco.com).

Family and friends help provide encouragement bit if you need extra aid and advice to take with you wherever you go, you can join a support group on Facebook or download a quit-smoking app on your phone.

Consider the cash you would save if you quit. According to the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, the average price for a pack of smokes is about $5.51-which is almost $300 a year for somebody who smokes a pack per week.

Take note that it's never too late to quit. In other words, the sooner you quit the better. :)

The "Tough" Strategy Talks To Have With Your Boss

No matter how confident you consider yourself is, I bet you would feel still a little nervous when you have to talk to your head honcho. Being calm (even if you are faking it) on the other hand and at the same time you remain focus on the work, your boss maybe thanking you as you exit from his office.
Here are some helpful strategies to follow if you think it's time to meet your boss face to face!

Situation: You are overwhelmed with a capital O, and need your boss to help you prioritize.
The Best Time To Ask: Better start it before you reach your choke point.
Strategy:
Be sure to be straightforward and leave emotion out of it. For instance, you might wanna say " I wanna continue focusing on other things you think really matter. Can we review the projects I'm working on to see which are most important to you?"

Situation: You want a raise.
Best Time To Ask: At least a month or 2 before your performance review and after well-received projects.
Strategy:
Don't attempt to come up with a number, and in tough times, no one will give a raise just because you want it. You might wanna say; "I'm really trying to establish the growth of my career and I'd like to earn more. Can we talk about how I could increase my salary here?"..This is ideal, as long as you don't do it every 2 months.

Situation: You want to get promoted.
Best Time To Ask: When you feel confident that you're ready for the next step, and you're really sure about it.
Strategy:
Wait for the right opportunity. Be sure to make it about the company and not your need to redecorate your apartment. Always ask your boss what success looks like in the position you want to have, and say; - "Let me think about how I can best achieve it.

Situation: You need to tell your boss you're pregnant.
Best Time To Ask: In this case, you're not asking but simply telling him.
Strategy: Ease the transition, and make your boss feel like she can count on you, so reassure him/her that you're committed to working until close term and returning after maternity leave. Never try to hide your bump until the last minute.

Situation: You want an upgrade from cubeland to an actual office.
Best Time To Ask: When your work requires privacy and you're feeling thick-skinned.
Strategy:
Humility is the key. If your job requires a confidential work or several important deadlines per week that require quiet focus, play up those things, but the word "deserve" shouldn't be in the conversation. Be realistic.

How To Clean Your Stuff Better

You know dust, grunge and grime are out there...on your sponge, handbag, all on your house and even on you!
You can effectively yet gently get rid of the ick factor and be cleaned up all over.

Your Stuff:

TV remote- swipe them down with a disinfectant wipe at least every 2 days, especially if somebody at home is sick. Save the channel surfing after you've cooked your dinner. It's because during your food prep, and you handle your remote in between, you can easily transfer microbes like E. coli or salmonella.

Handbag - it goes ealmost everywhere you go..ladies room, doctor's office so don't wonder your bag becomes a magnet of microbes, like salmonella, staph, and even E. coli. Watch out for those paper money that you stash in your purse as well. Flu virus can live on bank notes for 17 days.
To clean the inside of your purse, vacuum it using the cervice attachment, or use a long bristled suede brush to dump crumbs into the garbage can.
As much as possible, get into the habit of hanging your bag on restaurant or bathroom floors to avoid picking up germs.

Lingerie - Every pair of dirty underwear has traces of feces. Wash your underwear separately from the rest of your laundry on the highest temperature possible to kill germs and keep them from spreading to other clothes. Dry them to the fullest. Avoid damp drying which provides a perfect environment for bacteria growth.
For bras, it's okay to wear them 2-3 times before washing. But on days where you worked out in sweat, don't let it air out and wear it again. Instead, hand wash it with mild detergent and let air dry. Drying it through the tumbling washer and heat can damage the fabric and underwire of bras over time.

Sponges and scrub brushes - Sponge sitting out wet over night have all sorts of bacteria in it. In fact, it is the most contaminated sites for bacteria in your entire home. Clean them on the top rack of the dishwasher for the full cycle every time you run it, or microwave a slightly damp sponge (douse it with white vinegar or lemon juice, then wring it out) on high for 2-3 minutes and allow to air dry.

Are You In Good Credit?

Who doesn't want to have good credits? I do believe that everyone struggles so hard just to get a good life financially. We all strive to be good in paying our credits, savings, and always search for a dream home that is perfect for our family and loved ones.

And speaking of choosing a dream house, it would be quite a challenge to face the mortgage and all, particularly if the economy would start to rock and becomes unstable. So, it is essential that we should always be aware about our own financial capacity to handle our home mortgage, and at the same time fine a lender that would be credible enough to help you.
Have you heard about Five Star Mortgages? You might want to check them online to check on their rate lending. You can as well get your mortgage quotes directly on their website and check their specialties that suit your needs.

Just a note. If you have good credit, there would always no problem dealing with credit mortgages and refinancing companies. That's one of the safest rule we have to stick on if we want mortgage companies to keep trusting us and giving us what we deserve. Don't you think?

Ways To Cut Your Winter Energy Bills

The U.S. Energy Information Administration predicts that home heating oil, natural gas and electricity will go up from 2-11% more this winter than the previous year. Considering that heating prices are on the rise, getting your home prepped for this season is crucial.

First, you might want to consider having your thermostat control that can be done from your smartphone. These are programmable thermostats that let you automatically adjust the heat down at night which can save you 10% off your energy costs. Since they are link to the internet, you can adjust the temperature remotely. The easier it is to control your energy use, the more likely you are to save money.

Try storm windows that go inside instead of out. This is one recent alternative and with a better value. The products have aluminum frames that spring-loads to fit your window, and yet cost the same or less than your exterior storms and also energy saving. They are also much easier to put in and take out.

It might help to hire a pro to do home energy audit which can shell you out at least $100 to $400. You can instead consider buying a thermal leak detector for about $50 which can accurately pinpoint where energy seepage is at. You can either seal it or let a pro do it once you identify the problem zones.

Adding insulation to your attic and using caulk or foam up there to seal cracks can save you up to 30% on energy costs.

In so many aspects? Yes, finally, here are the scientific proofs for what most of us have known all along..that women are:

1. Better in dealing with a broken heart according to a survey published in the the Journal of Health & Social Behavior which found out that men suffer more after a split and dwell longer on the break up.

How To Improve Your Credit Score

It's always a peace of mind when you know you are not going bad when it comes to your finances. So, be sure you know your stand when it comes to your credit score.

To improve your credit score, you have to improve your credit history by paying your bills on time. If you pay delingquently, it will have a major negative impact on your score.

If in case you missed payments, get current and stay current as much as you can. Remember also that even if you pay off a delingquent account, it stays on your report for 7 years!

Keep your credit balances low on your credit cards because high outstanding debt can affect your score.

The best way to imrpove your score is by paying down your revolving credit. Don't close unused credit cards to raise your score. Owing the same amount, but having fewer open accounts, may lower your score.

Don't try to open new credit cards you don't need, because it could backfire and lower your score.

Get a CD or savings-secured loan which could allow you to borrow against your personal savings, which gives you access to funds a a lower cost while keeping your personal savings intact and growing. As you repay the loan promptly every month, you establish a solid repayment history that becomes part of your credit report.

If you can't do it alone, work with a professional. There is no quick fix for establishing a good credit history. It takes time, effort and guidance. You might want to try set up a meeting with your banker to discuss your case situation and get the professional assistance you need.

Deserving Eyes

Christmas is coming fast and for sure many are not still done with their Christmas shoppings. For many, it is tough to be with the crowd these days going to department stores, malls, and any shopping areas. But if you have somebody you are thinking about on what to give this Christmas, perhaps this year you can give a special gift a little bit different than the ordinary gift buying you usually do, right?

How about a pair of eyeglasses for your loved one? Probably your parents, your partner, a friend or anybody you think who really need them.
There is no other best gift we can give them this Christmas like eyeglasses which can save their eyes from any other eye disorders or can give them protection as well. Those deserving eyes need a tender loving care by Zenni Optical! :)

You should be glad Zenni Optical offers low, everyday prices with all types of glasses that you need. Visit them online, and check their weekly sales, specials and exclusive deals as well!

BullyProof Your Kid

A recent data shows that one out of 4 children is a victim of bullying. So, what can you do to protect your kid from bullies?

The more you check on your kids often you'll be more likely to spot a bullying problem early. If your kid is a victim, don't overreact. The more calm you react to it, the more your kid would share you the scary things.
Talk to your kid's teachers, or principal, not the bully's parents. Remember, your intention is to create a safe environment, not to prove that your kid is right.

A confident, self-assured kid will be avoided by bullies because they won't get the scared reaction they want. Urge your kid to ask a teacher for support. Bullies will quickly realize that this type of kid is too much trouble to bother with.

One of the most common cause of bullying is turmoil at home, especially if parents are going through divorce, or had divorce. This causes their kids to stop talking to them about how they feel because they are scared to upset them even more. Instead, they lash out at other kids.
Although you can't prevent tough times from happening, make sure your kid's emotions can be expressed out in the open through your guidance.

Infomercial

Authored by Leandro Delgado

My favorite infomercials of all time always show up on the Golf channel on direct tv. They always are showing the newest and best golf clubs in the world. I am always left trying to figure out how I could possibly purchase all the clubs that they are selling. The infomercials show professional players and golf instructors using certain clubs to help improve their game. Whether it’s a weighted driver for improving swing speed, or a grip for the club to make your hands more comfortable, I am always interested in improving my game somehow. The instructional videos that come along with the golf training tool or golf club are always what gets me to want to purchase it. They show interviews with people about the training tool, and how their game has improved by using it. Now, every time I go into the PGA Superstore or Golfsmith, I look for the golf clubs that I have seen on television. Of course, anything could really help my golf game out, considering I still have yet to even come close to shooting par.

Dealing With A Racist Boss

One way to assess if your boss is being discriminatory is to document all of it, like as to what, when, where and how. This way, it will help answer why. Daily journal containing objective and relevant facts are vital as well, but be sure it is not on a company letterhead, email or electronic devices.

You can then seek the help of a trusted friend , career coach or mentor to review the facts with you, and seek advice whether you have enough case to take your claim to HR. Read the employee manual as well to learn company protocol.

if for instance that your boss utters a racial slight, pull the person aside and calmly say, "your comment is inappropriate. Let's keep our relationship on a professional level." Some bullies will back down when confronted.

Take your complaint to the HR and be sure that all facts are documented and make sure you at least tried to resolve the problem before it escalated. Take note that HR's role is to protect the company.

When you think it's time to go, be sure to know when. It's time when you have enough money to continue your livelihood. If your facts are documented, use them to negotiate a severance agreement. Take time to look at the company's culture. Is your case only an isolated incident? or is racism either explicitly or implicitly encouraged? If it's the latter, analyze how soon you could land another job.

Green Tea + Lemon = Cancer Protection

Green tea is a prime source of cancer-fighting catechins. But while the nutrients may be tough on cancer cells, they're total wimps in your tummy and only 20% survive the digestive process and make it out to your body to do it any good.

According to a study from Purdue University, it found out that squeezing a lemon juice into your green brew toughens up catechins, boosting the number you digest up to 13 times.

For an even more cancer protection, stir in sugar. Thr sweet stuff morphs catechins into a form that's three times easier to absorb.

Sooner, if you pay off your mortgage ahead of time, banks won't be able to charge extra. For now, avoid signing ones with a prepayment penalty.

How To Love Your Weekday Mornings

Do you know what's the best way to have a calmer morning? Get a head start the night before. Start spending at least 10 minutes before going to bed by making a to-do list of things you need to do the next day. You will tend to sleep more soundly and you'll be ready to go for the morning rush.

According to a new study, teens who get a later morning start tend to be less depressed than early risers. Let the kids enjoy more shut-eye too.
Let the kids have a race to get dressed, or time their routine and see if they can beat their fastest.

If your kids cling to the covers on a chilly morning, motivate them to get up and dressed by warming up their clothes in the dryer for a few minutes. While you're at it, throw in your outfit too :).

Next time, try iron from beans like chickpeas and add some delish red peppers. Simply toss roasted red pepper when making hummus and top salads with red peppers and chickpeas.

Voila! Yummy and delicious and you get the iron you need ;).

There's Nothing Else Like Handmade Boots!

There is actually nothing to worry about when you are looking for boots. Nowadays, you can see a lot of them in various kinds almost all in any department stores, boutiques and even online shops. But as I have been sharing my experiences in my previous posts before, I would recommend buying them online as long as you know your shoe size.

For men who are looking for cowboy boots, why not try checking lucchese mens boots online? You can choose your preferred style basing on their designs and colors. These are handmade footwear but are of standard for quality and craftmanship. They are unique in the way that they are handmade-manufactured. The one good thing when you go buy your shoes online is that you can definitely get the exact fit you always wanted, plus you will always get those designs that you will never find on your actual store. You also have to consider you don't have to be running around the entire mall like crazy just to find those boots for you! That's one big heck of time-wasted and very tiresome too!

By the way, Lucchese boots are not only for men. They also have cowgirl boots if you need to buy one for the girls.

Make An Emergency Health Card

Wacthing TV

Posted by Jerold Austin

If I didn’t know any better I would say my dog watches TV. No, seriously, when I come home from work he’s often just sitting in front of the blank screen staring at it like he’s willing it to do something! He’s really social and I think since my second dog died a year or so back he’s been lonely when I’m at work all day. I recently got directv technology at my house so I’ve been leaving the bedroom TV on for him so he can watch it and sleep all curled up like he likes to. I know that sounds crazy but on the days I forget he really seems to be a lot more anxious when I get home! I wish I could get another dog to keep him company but they’re just so expensive and so much work. I knew that getting one was going to be an undertaking but I sure wish he would learn to entertain himself! I don’t know if I can handle a second one right now.

Stash Your Sunglasses

If you happened to be putting on your shades every time you head outside, try taking them off the next time you need a pick-me-up. According to Dr. Tara Brass, a psychiatrist in New York City, this kind of short term exposure to sunlight signals your brain to stop producing melatonin, a sleep-inducing hormone, and gives you a quick energy boost.
Be sure to limit your sunglasses-free time to 10 minutes, because UV rays could damage your eyes.

Enhancing Your Gratitude Attitude

They say saying a grace is only part of the appreciation equation. But enhancing your attitude towards gratitude is vital as well.

Try to enlist a friend and ask her/him to be your "gratitude-accountability partner."You can email each other with things you're thankful for in life. Having someone to answer to will keep you disciplined.

Make a list of the tough breaks you've gone through like loss of a loved one, a lay off or a divorce. Recounting what you've been through and survived will help you appreciate what you have now. Try to ask yourself; - "What personal strengths grew out of the experience?" "How has it helped me value the important things?" These will provide new perspective on life's hardships.

Imagine about what it would be like if something you're now grateful for never happened. Focusing on how much worse off you'd be without the things in your life that make you happy helps you appreciate them more.

When you feel yourself dwelling on the negative, jot down what's bothering you. Then, cross it off, substituting it with something you're grateful for.

Try hosting a schoolm community or church bake sale and donate the proceeds to the Great American Bake Sale. This also benefits Share Our Strength, an organization that works to ensure that no child in America goes hungry.

Support your local food bank. Try locating one between your home and your grocery store at feedingamerica.org or strength.org. Most needed items are canned meat and fish, soup, pasta, rice and some personal items like toothpaste and soap.

Cigar Lover?

I bet cigar lovers would at least prefer buying their own favorite cohiba cigars online especially if they couldn't hardly find time to drive into the actual cigar shop. I don't smoke cigars, but I see Cuban cigars commonly at cigar shops in some malls. I wouldn't wonder why many love these type of cigars. It's because it is filled with tobacco and had undergone an extra fermentation process. At least, that's what they told me ;).

Finding The Best Painter For Hire

If you want to save bundle on exterior work for painting, hire the right painter and use the correct tools.
It would always be smart to get referrals from friends and tradesmen or check reviews from angieslist.com. Then ask 3 painters for written bids and compare how each of them promises to wash, scrape and sand. Before you choose, check out the exteriors of former customer's homes; it's worth hiring a pricier pro for a good result.

Be sure your bid includes a coat primer on any exposed wood and 2 coats of finish paint on everything. At least 80% of your cost is labor, so maximize the investment with the longest lasting paint you can get.

It helps to use a spray gun which is quick but that hinders adhesion on wood siding which shortens the life of the paint job. So make sure that your painter will use brushers or rollers - or at least will brush or roll after the sprayer for wood sidings.

When it comes to warranty, it's not the length of coverage that matters most. A one year warranty is okay as long as it states that the painter will fix any issues (such as peeling or bubbling) without exclusions.

Though moost paint jobs last 5-7 years (depending on the climate and the age of your house, etc..), regular maintenance might extend it to 10 years. So, choose a painter who is willing to come back yearly to touch up worn or peeling areas. That will cost a few hundred bucks per visit, but you can save bundles in the long run.

The Myths of Allergy

Myth 1: "Any reaction to food is an allergy."
First thing to consider about is the difference between what they call "food intolerance" and "allergic reaction."
Allergic reactions shortly occurs after eating, generally between 2 minutes to 2 hours, regardless of whether how small or large amount of food you have eaten. Food intolerances on the other hand, is caused by a wide variety of symptoms, such as headaches, or gastrointestinal problems like bloating, nausea, gas or loose stools.

It is of vital importance to know whether you have the real allergy or just a food intolerance. Having a simple reaction to a certain food like digestive issues doesn't always mean an allergy. Instead, see your doctor ASAP. He can figure out whether you need to see an allergist for further testing.

Myth 2: "A positive allergy test means you're definitely allergic."
A negative skin/blood test rules out nearly all food allergies but positive tests are less than 50% accurate, said the experts.
Best thing to do is to also undergo thorough physical exam and have a full medical and family history including the traditional skin/blood tests because many food allergies often run in the family.

Myth 3: Once you have an allergy, you will have it for life."
Here's some good news! According to a research, 85% of children will eventually outgrow their allergies to milk, egg, and nearly all of them outgrow allergies to wheat and soy. But if you develop an allergy to a food during your teen or adult years, that is more likely with you to stay.

Myth 4: "What you eat can give you/your kids food allergies."
Some mothers blame themselves for causing an allergy to their kids because she ate too much peanut butter while she was pregnant or nursing. These beliefs seem to be shaky. According to many experts, the opposite maybe true that feeding your baby small amounts of higly allergenic foods like peanuts at an early age may actually encourage tolerance an an effective way to help ward off future food allergies in the future.

Plus Sizes Boots For You

It is sometimes challenging to spend more time shopping for plus sizes shoes that really fits your size, don't you think? That is why when someone asks me where I get my stuff, I always tell them I buy them online ;). I am not a plus size, but I have petite size, lol! And although petite sizes are most common to see in the stores such as clothings and apparels, when it comes to shoes, they are not always in the actual stores. There might be some, but it is very rare that they have the style or color that I really want.

So, I suggest, when you are looking for stores that offer plus sizes shoes, buy it online. Fall season is almost here, and it's gonna be boots time once again ;). You can now check Wide Calf Boots online at One Stop Plus, and I am sure you won't regret buying them online. If only I have that size, I would surely buy several of them. I always wear boots during the colder months because boots are really good in covering my entire calves from extreme cold. I also have some boots (which are petite sizes, of course) that are ideal for me to wear in mildly cold temperatures such as in early spring or early and late fall.

Boost Your Memory!

Are you that person who often forget your phone, or your keys, or have trouble remembering the name of your neighbor who definitely remembers yours?
Then you need a breather!

Did you know that people who meditate at least 20 minutes daily even for just afew days can do four times better on memory exercises than those who listened to an audiobook for the same amount of time?

According to a recent study from University of North Carolina, there is a simple meditation routine that they are actually recommending some participants to do it. These participants were told to focus on the changing sensations of their breath. That means acknowledging their worries or thoughts in their head but then letting them go and returning their attention back to the action of breathing in and out?

Try it and you will find it easy! ;) And if you can't carve out a full 20 minutes, the researchers believe that as little as five minutes will provide some of the same benefits.

Should You Friend Your Employee in Facebook?

A friend request from your FB by your employee is a well meant but not always welcome surprise. Before you hit accept, first think about the possible implications.
You also have to take note that before accepting an employee's friend request, decide whether facebook is a personal branding tool or a place to connect with friends. If it's the latter, definitely opt out.

Play hard to get. You have to remember that you are a boss and not a peer, so you can get away with being aloof. Or you might just try simply by not responding. That might well be the end of it.

"It's not you, it's me" would be a great answer if the employee tracks you down and asks why you didn't respond. Explain that you keep a boundary between work and home. And also tell him that you want to enjoy the world without Big Brother watching ;).

Accept a request if it is someone with whom you want a lasting link. Just make sure you both agree. Whatever happens on Facebook, stays on Facebook.

How To Ace Up An Interview No Matter What

No matter how completely prepared you are in your interview, take note that you still don't know what to expect from your interviewer.
According to Bill Byham, a CEO and co-founder of a consulting firm, there is a job-interviewing strategies called targeted selection. the goal is to get job candidates to speak specifically about their past, which can help predict future performance

For an interview to become into a focused and successful hour, here are some ideas to keep:

Getting to know your predecessors is vital. Note that interviewers hire based on the previous employee's failures in the job. To be prepared, talk to people who work for your potential employer. The more you can find out about those who were in the job before, the more insight you will gain onto what's vital to the interviewer.

Beware of telling lies because you won't get hired! A good interviewer will figure out whether you're telling the truth or not. Honesty is a very important.

Take advantage of the unprepared. A poor interviewer can be easy to get off track, because he doesn't have a track. If you go in knowing what you want to emphasize, a bit of hinting lets you take control. If the conversation sputters, just bring it out. be careful though if you do it with a prepared interviewer because you may seem annoying.

Inside The Arab World

Everybody knows what is happening with most of the Arab countries nowadays, I believe. Wars, chaos, tough politics, Arab civilians on the streets fighting for freedom, etc... There are many obvious reasons why all these are happening. With all the conflicts seem getting worst as days go on, it even came to a point where the whole world became so concerned and the UN has tried to intervene for the good of many. The world is still watching! And of course, without a reliable Arab News, people would feel even the worst experience not knowing what to do without getting any updates on the current events.

The role of the media has been the most vital form of communication all around the world such as news. Just imagine the world without any news! We all know that news has a wide scope. It can be news about good and bad, whether it is a news about world economy, wars, political instabilities and conflicts, famine, weather updates, etc...you name it, news is considered one of the lifelines of all countries wherever we are in the world.
And yes, the news would always be the most important form of updates in the Arab world.

It is always a good practice to stay informed everyday. The Arab nations always need the fresh, crisp news as well, particularly about what is currently happening nowadays.

Perfect Position For a Body-Ache Free

How you sit, stand, run or walk has everything to do with keeping your body ache-free.

First, keep your arms by your sides at a 90-degree angle while typing. In this manner, you may have to scoot your chair in or out.

Your shoulders should be down and relaxed. If they are scrunched up by your neck, it means that your chair is too low, so adjust your seat accordingly.

Feet should be flat on the ground while you're seated. If both feet can't reach the ground, try getting a footrest or stack up books.

Leaning your back too far back or hunching forward can be bad on your vertebrae. Your lower back should touch the part of your chair where the seat and back meet. If it doesn't, try buying a lumbar support cushion or a small pillow and put it behind your back.

It is also important to take note that your torso from hips to head should be in a straight line.
