Fat Bias is Alive and Well and Thriving in the Land of Sushi

by @ 11:57 pm. Filed under Self Help

Fahrenheit Four-Fatty-One. Handmaid’s Ass. As it turns out anti-utopia is happening right now in Japan of all places. We’re sure you are wondering why we sound so hysterical. It’s because we ARE hysterical. Hold on while we slap each other (Ouch.) We’re in a tizzy because (Stop it Laura! ONE slap is enough to quell a temper fit.)…we’re having the vapors because we just read – in the NEW YORK TIMES – that, in Japan, weight terrorism has begun.

Under a new law that they passed companies and local government now not only can but must measure the waistlines of their employees and citizens. If your waist is above the legal limit you get “re-education.” We’re pretty sure that means they can get D.W.E (Driving While Eating) convictions. What on earth will they do to people who accidentally slip and eat a donut before they get measured? Yoichi Ogushi, a professor at Tokai University’s School of Medicine was quoted saying that the Japanese were all too thin to need this new law but that in the US there are so many people over 100 kilos that it would be useful. (100 kilos is about 220 pounds). On the upside we now have some clue as to how much a kilo is. We still have no idea how many pounds in a stone – which is how they do your weight in England (”That cow – she’s 25 stone!”)

Still, learning a few numbers isn’t really enough to set our minds to rest on this one. Are there some obscure lines in the Patriot Act we don’t know about yet? Is it possible that we live in a world where they have marketed us into our size 22’s and that they now plan to make a killing fining us for our flub? Is all that white flour and corn syrup they hide in our food really just a long term plan to get our money? In Japan, if their employees don’t lose the poundage, the companies get fined. How do you spell fired? As if it isn’t already hard enough to get a job in a society that, while banning all other kinds of bias, tolerates and even encourages weight bias? They will also, in Japan, fine the local governments where the thick waisted people work, contribute and raise their children. Can there be any greater way to foster hate crimes than billing tax payers because their neighbors binged on Pepperidge Farm and Hagan Daz? Oh….we has the willies on this one!

Oh yeah. We’re steamed (not fried.) In the NY Times article they go on to say that in Japan they don’t say you are “fat.” They say you are “metabo.” They say the word makes it easier for people to hear. Maybe this comment will make it easier for them to hear: B-FABs (Beautiful Fat Ass Babes) say you can take your “metabo” and ram it! The article suggests that some experts say that the Japanese government guidelines are so extreme that it will be almost impossible to meet them. They say that some people there think the real purpose of the anti-metabo laws are so they can eventually shift the health care costs from public to private funds. Are you starting to get the chills now too? Did you see Michael Moore’s movie “Sicko?” It is so easy to imagine that insurance companies would leap at a chance to blame us for our illnesses and refuse to cover anything for anyone bigger than the Olsen Twins – either one.

Has there ever been a greater need for us B-FABs to bond? We need our own big-ass Washington Lobby. We volunteer. Laura and Janette will shriek out at the first opportunity. Tell us what you want us to say. Join our B-FAB movement. Pretty soon the only safety we have will be in numbers. Everybody needs a political action group! Look at what AARP is doing for the over fifty crowd. We need to bond together to take a stand for the American metaboes! We’re it. Be a B-FAB. Love yourself and everyone else can stick it.

We feel better now.

Cheap Bar Stools Leather or Wood

by @ 11:34 pm. Filed under Home Management

If you are like most homeowners, you have probably thought about the space saving option of using bar stools instead of chairs. Not only are bar stools elegant and functional, but they are often less expensive than traditional chairs, too. What surprises many people is the incredible selection and number of different styles that bar stools come in. We often think of bar stools as basic and don’t realize that most furniture retailers carry dozens or even hundreds of different styles, shapes and colors. The two most popular styles of bar stools feature finished wood or ones with leather seats. Let’s take a look at the advantages of both styles.

If you are looking for a traditional bar stool that will get ‘oohhs’ and ‘ahhs’ from your family and friends, why not go with a beautiful wooden bar stool. These popular cheap bar stools feature almost any color and style you could want. They can be unvarnished for a rugged, natural look or they can be stained any sort of color you want. The selection of wood bar stools is incredibly high, so no matter what d

Educate Yourself More Regarding Article Marketing Domination

by @ 11:31 pm. Filed under Business

Most all of the Top Internet Marketers will agree that article writing is the best way to build an Internet Business. What you’ll run into, and this is a good thing if you truly understand article marketing since it will eliminate a lot of your competition, is that most people think that submitting articles is boring and not very effective. What they don’t know is that articles are probably the surest way to send a constant stream of long-term targeted traffic to your websites and Josh Spaulding and his Article Marketing Domination course go into vivid detail regarding this.

Article Marketing Profit Mentor

One dynamic we appreciated about perusing over the Article on Marketing News here is that Josh talks about all the very same questions you may be wondering right now. A Marketing Article that has to do with duplicate content penalties, whether or not this Marketing Research Article will at anytime drive in traffic, using the same ones on various sites, and how in the world this will in reality translate into a full time income for you. All abundant questions, and getting these answers would be adequate enough to get involved with the Article Marketing Domination package.

Putting In the Time

In business, we all have to employ trial and error in order to continue growing it. But savvy Business Owners also take all the short cuts they can, learn from a proven mentor who can save them 100’s of hours and 1,000’s of dollars in bad mistakes. We’ve made them ourselves unfortunately. And in our opinion $1,400 in residual ad sense revenue is better than an $85,000 year, since this will add up to over $500,000 in thirty years. And for someone like Josh to teach this method to you is a blessing.

You’ll see about half way down the sales presentation where he talks about all the Internet Marketing Article mistakes he theretofore made. Targeting the improper keywords, transcripting the wrong articles, placing them on the wrong sites, and of course worrying about all the wrong dynamics. In fact, these aren’t made up by us, the list is right there for you to see along with a snapshot of his Google Adsense income he started bringing in every month. Whether you are transcripting a Current Events Article Related to Marketing or a Marketing Related Journal Article, we can see how this package can help you side step contingent stumbling blocks.

Separating Tips from the Testimonials

When you get to the testimonials we realize they aren’t exactly what you want to peruse. People think these are doctored or fake, but regardless of your afterthoughts they can give you hints of more to come. For example when you peruse over the Article Marketing Service testimonials for Josh’s Article Marketing Domination there are positive advantages appropriate in front of you. They give you a couple of them you can peruse right on their website.

The information the Article Marketing Domination Article Marketing Service gives you is simply 26 pages. This is important because now you know it’s not 200-300 pages that could take innumerable hours to peruse. Geez, if you just read closely you’ll already know how much the cost of this is before just finding the bottom of the sales presentation. There are innumerable clues so just be sure to slide over them at least.

Our Exact Dissection

Sometimes when people see that a product is only 26 pages they turn the other way. However, don’t let that throw you off the main goal here. Inside, Josh will teach you how to properly write an article, effectively submit them, the two different kinds of article marketing, and a few others we’ll let you view for yourself. We hope the Article Marketing Domination course will make you successful online.

Let Internet Marketing Review Kings Brian “Porky” Garvin & Jeffrey D. West present to you more about Article Marketing Domination this very second. You can at anytime visit our website as we have a myriad of resources to help you find what you mandate, with no obligation.

Substance and Style Are Essentials of Web Design

by @ 11:26 pm. Filed under Internet

Though not as important as writing amazing content, creating an awesome site design is the most important part of leaving a remarkable first impression on your visitors. Contents keeps visitors coming back, but a beautiful web design has its own value. Before you go out and spend hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars on a web site design, make sure you understand the basics.

There are two aspects of a good web design: substance and style. Like we mentioned above, each has its own value, and can make the other aspect even better.

Let’s start out with substance, or the technical aspect of a web design. A well-designed web site should be and easy to navigate. Minimize the distractions. Make sure your visitors can access the blog through a wide variety of web browsers, operating systems, and screen resolutions. You wouldn’t want to mess up a beautiful design by only coding it for one browser.

One commonly overlooked component of web design is the page’s loading time. With many designs extremely graphic-heavy, some sites take several seconds to completely load. In an era of web surfing where a visit may only last a couple seconds, it’s important to keep your visitor’s attention while you have it. Images should only be a few kilobytes (10kb - 12kb). Many graphic editors, such as Adobe Photoshop, have a “save for web” feature that will allow you to save the bandwidth and load time by cutting file size.

As far as the aesthetic design goes, it’s important to be “unique,” after all, that’s how trends change. But in most cases, it’s better to stick with a traditional conservative design. There’s a whole laundry list of ways that a web layout can get out of hand. Minimize the distractions. Stick with a couple simple fonts. Avoid Flash-based component that steal bandwidth and attention. Cut down on the advertisements, especially ones that aren’t extremely profitable. Don’t automatically have your favorite song start blasting in the background. And whatever you do, there’s no need to change the visitor’s cursor. Final point: keep it simple, stupid. There’s the end of that rant.

There are quite a few tools out there for a webmaster’s disposal. Some software applications allow you to certify your site meets web standards. These swiss-army knives of design can help your site do it all. It’s possible to check out your site in a variety of browsers and resolutions, as well as making sure the code meets world wide web standards. In most cases, trial versions available for download, if not the full version. For web designers working on a variety of sites, a do-it-all program is a great asset for improving design functionality.

Web design is the telephone line that delivers your message to your visitors. Better yet, your web design is the phone itself. Everybody wants a stylish design, but it’s most important that the message is delivered across effectively.

Designing a web site is a never-ending process. Even after the initial design, you’ll find that little tweaks are needed from time to time. With the ever-evolving Internet, even a state of the art web site may need a significant redesign just one year later. Ask your readers for feedback about the site design; after all, they’re the ones you’re trying to communicate with.

Hiring a web design firm is one to develop a beautiful web site. However, don’t forget that functionality is the essential part. Common sense doesn’t require a thousand-dollar phone consultant.

Frequent Meals and Cutting Sugar Are Keys to Diet Success

by @ 11:14 pm. Filed under Wellness, Fitness and Diet

Most people consider the word “diet” to be taboo. A word that shouldn’t be spoken at all, or briefly mentioned and forgotten. However, for any man or woman looking to improve their physical appearance, fitness, or performance, a well-balanced goal focused at a specific goals can greatly improve a body’s health and wellness.

Diet isn’t about starvation; it’s about improving the life you live on a daily basis. In fact, it’s possible for you to eat more food than you are now, and still lose wait. Yes, that’s correct! Eat more food, yet lose weight. There are several key components that need to be addressed. The main variables are which foods you eat, how much you eat, and what time it’s eaten. All three play an important role, so it’s necessary that you understand them in order to make improvements to your diet in a safe and efficient manner.

There aren’t a whole lot of bodybuilders or supermodels eating cake, candy, or coke, at least during model season. Sugar is the biggest culprit when it comes to controlling weight and body fat. If one of your lunch habits is to drink a bottle or can of soda, it’s possible to lose several pounds a year by just replacing the sugary drink with a glass of water.

Treat yourself to good food. Eating healthy food doesn’t need to be depriving. The staples of a healthy diet fruit, vegetables, meats, whole grains, and nuts can be as delicious as junk food if you take the time to prepare them creatively. Watch out for foods that are deceiving. Some foods may appear healthy, sound healthy, or boast claims such as “low fat” or “lean”. Forget the misconception that fat is the enemy. Recent studies have shown that high-fat diets, around 40% of daily caloric intake, is effective at fat loss. You still need to watch out for trans fat and hydrogenated fats, but sugar is the main culprit to a healthy diet.

How much food you eat is dependent on your personal goal. It’s better to eat several “small” meals, rather than a couple large meals. A general rule of thumb for individuals looking to lose weight is eat whenever you are hungry, but only until you aren’t hungry anymore. Don’t stuff yourself like you are sitting in front of a Thanksgiving feast, but don’t deprive yourself either. Stick with whatever amount keeps your optimism high and gives you results at a healthy pace.

If your goal is to gain weight, it’s just as important to be eating every two to four hours. However, the quantity needs to be much greater. Your body may only need 2500 calories now, but if you want to eat like a 250-pound football player, it’s necessary that you start eating like one.

One area of nutrition that is often overlooked is the time when foods are eaten. Carbohydrates, especially sugars like fruit and soda, should only be eaten in the morning or immediately after a workout for optimal results. Whenever sugars are sent into the blood stream, insulin is released as well, which puts the body into a “fat-absorbing” mode. Definitely not what you’re after! Fatty and protein-heavy foods can be eaten at almost any time, but once again, sugar should be kept under close control.

Nutrition doesn’t have to be complex. Eat every couple hours, eat a moderate portion of protein with every meal, and minimize your sugars. Diet is an intimidating word, but once you find what works best for you personally, the results are extremely rewarding.

Learn How to Self Publish a Magazine

by @ 10:58 pm. Filed under Writing

Self publishing a magazine that’s something that many individuals are interested in, not only for the money that is possible to make but also so that they can pursue an interest of theirs to its fullest extent. There are several different things that you’re going to need to do in order to start a periodical and it may be difficult to learn how to start a magazine unless you start at the very beginning. All of us have different ideas of what success is as far as our magazines are concerned but by following the proper path, you will have the greatest chance of finding the success you’re looking for.

The first thing that you’re going to need is to find the proper financing in order to start a magazine in the first place. Before you have a large readership, it is often difficult to attract any advertisers in order to make the initial money to begin publishing. One of the easiest ways to do this is to come up with a business plan for your magazine so that you can approach a lending institution to help you with the financing. Once your readership begins to improve, you can find advertisers that will begin to pay for all of the publishing cost and to make your magazine run in the black.

You also need to determine how large your magazine is going to be. If you’re working on a very specific niche, you may want to have a smaller magazine or perhaps only publish it several times per year. There is no set rule that says that you need to publish a magazine every month in order for it to be successful. Many magazines have been published for a very long time that are only available once or twice per year.

There really are a lot of other things that are involved in how to start a magazine. As long as you have the desire and an interest in maintaining one of these periodicals, however, you can generally be successful with it. Give it time to grow and make sure that you are constantly promoting the magazine in order to have a larger following. Eventually, your magazine will have a life of its own and you would be surprised at exactly how far you will be able to take it. It is a very old way to make money but it is one that still works today.

Laying out a magazine can me more of a hassle then writing the content for it. One great way to massively cut down on the time it takes to lay out your magazine is by using an InDesign magazine template. Once you learn how to use an InDesign template you will be able to spend less time laying out the pages of your magazine and be able to spend more time writing content for it as well as promoting it. Since time is money both of those things can in turn lead to more profits, so this is a very worthwhile investment.

There are many websites online that sell InDesign magazine templates so it should not be a problem finding one that meets your needs. If you feel that you can not find a template that fits your specific needs then you might consider hiring a freelancer to design the template for you. This is a once off expense that will save you countless time in the future. InDesign templates are simple to use and will absolutely help you save time that you would have spent laying out your copy. Using these templates are fast and simple. You just layout your content as you want it to look in the template.

When you consider how much time and effort you save by using an InDesign magazine template you soon realize what a worthwhile investment they are. By just using a simple layout you are also maximizing how much you are able to fit on each page. If you do not already use a magazine templates and you are looking for a way to save time and money the acquire one today.

Will Treating Acid Reflux Cure Your Bad Breath?

by @ 10:34 pm. Filed under Wellness, Fitness and Diet

The chances are that if you suffer from acid reflux, you may also be aware that your breath isn’t quite as fresh as those non-GERD sufferers around you. The fact is that when acid refluxes into your esophagus, that horrible sensation and taste is also accompanied by a not-so-pleasant smell. If you’re simply sitting at home alone watching television, it’s uncomfortable, but your breath doesn’t really bother anyone but you. However, if there’s anyone around you, the chances are that they’ll soon be taking a step back, scrunching their noses, or handing you a mint.

But how do you know when your breath is really that bad? You’ve tried breathing into the palm of your hand, but you simply can’t tell. One technique recommended by experts on job interviews and social interaction is to give the inside of your wrist a quick lick (assuming you’re not wearing perfume there) and wait for it to dry. Once it’s no longer wet, smell the spot – does it smell sour or unpleasant? If so, you’ve got bad breath.

But what can a GERD sufferer do? You’ve likely heard that peppermint and other forms of mint, such as that in chewing gums, breath mints, and other breath-improving products can actually aggravate your acid reflux and, in turn, make your breath even worse.

Don’t panic. There are many things that you can do to ensure that your breath stays as pleasant as possible. If you speak to your doctor, a nutritionist, or a naturopath, they will likely tell you that your first step is to change your diet. You need to eat foods that help keep your acid reflux under control. The more you experience acid reflux, the worse your breath will be.

When you’re choosing your next meal (and all of those that follow), try to keep both your acid reflux and your breath in mind. Onions, garlic, spicy foods, and fried foods tend to give most people bad breath. But since these foods also aggravate acid reflux symptoms, then your reaction to them will be twice as unpleasant – to you and those around you.

You can also start trying to lower your stress level through various activities such as exercise, relaxation, yoga, breathing techniques, and anything else that will calm you down. Stress can contribute to bad breath, though many people are unaware of this fact, and can also encourage behaviors that worsen acid reflux. So if your breath is already prone to being sour due to GERD symptoms, then you’ll want to work on your stress levels to stop the situation from getting any worse.

Once you start reducing stress levels and begin eating better, you’ll quickly discover that these changes not only make an enormous difference, but they’re not half as difficult as you’d through they’d be. The trick is to make the changes slowly and ease them into your life while building the positive habits.

You may also find that by taking certain medications or natural or herbal GERD remedies, you’ll give yourself just that much more of an advantage for keeping your bad breath under control.

Interpreting Tarot Cards How Hard is It

by @ 10:33 pm. Filed under Society

Tarot cards have existed for hundreds of years, and they are used to predict the future, or changes, in someone’s life. For beginners, learning the meanings of individual cards and how to read them can seem like a daunting task, but if one attempts to understand how tarot cards work at a slow pace, it really is not as difficult as it first appears.

Each tarot card has a deep and profound meaning, and every one is a study unto itself. That does not mean you have to spend hours tediously studying all of the cards, but you should try to learn a little bit about each one at a gradual pace. If you want to learn how to read tarot cards, there are three factors that you must understand. Of course, the first is familiarizing yourself with the variety of meanings behind each card.

No card has a single meaning; they can be interpreted in several ways, which leaves a lot of room open for personal elucidation. The individual definitions of cards are lengthy and constantly being expanded upon. Make sure that the source you use is reputable, as many writers exaggerate or leave out facts, and it would only serve to confuse you if you first read from a false source and later found out it was incorrect.

While the cards themselves are important, the way in which they are laid out also plays a big role in how they are interpreted. The format of a layout of tarot cards is referred to as a spread, and a multitude of spreads are available for one to choose from. Depending on what spread is used, a certain level of influence is attributed to it. Some spreads are better for certain situations, so the more spreads you know, the more effective and meaningful your readings will be. Novices can utilize the collection of simple, easy to use spreads, but as you become more advanced, you may want to consider adding new types of spreads to your repertoire.

The final piece of the puzzle in reading is acknowledging the importance of your role in the activity. Putting down cards in a spread is not enough; after all, it is through you which the interpretation is channeled through. Keeping an open state of mind and allowing your thoughts to flow freely increases the depth of your readings and makes them more powerful. If you are not receptive or unbelieving in the process, the reading will be inhibited, even if the cards and spread are laid out perfectly.

That is not to say that this is the most important factor, as the synergy of all three parts is what results in a fantastic reading. However, you must learn to focus and be highly aware of how your role affects the interpretation. Whether you are doing a reading for fun or performing one in a serious manner, this step cannot be ignored or skipped over.

Keep in mind that it takes a fair amount of practice to become proficient at tarot card reading. Nobody is fully proficient at something their first time around. Take time to ingest information and literature about the nature of tarot cards, and practice enacting readings frequently. If you do that, it won’t be long before you are a master tarot card reader.

How to Cure Gout Naturally

by @ 10:29 pm. Filed under Wellness, Fitness and Diet

If you would like to better understand how to cure gout in a natural way, then you may wish to examine the impact of certain herbs and other at-home treatments that can help to control the inflammation, minimize uric acid production, and ease the pain from which all gout patients suffer.

The following methods, substances, spices and herbs can all be used at home to treat gout naturally, however, please remember to consult your doctor before trying any of these remedies:

- Epsom Salt baths – to ease discomfort of gout and reduce the inflammation, place 2 to 3 teaspoons of Epsom salts into a footbath, basin, or pan that is large enough to immerse the affected foot/joint. The water should be as hot as you can stand it without discomfort. Soak the gouty joint for approximately thirty minutes. This technique also works if you take a whole-body Epsom salt bath. If the gout occurs in a part of the body other than the foot, this will be the preferred method. In this case, you will need one to two cups of Epsom salts (follow the instructions on the package).

- Nettle Tea – nettle tea increases the excretion of uric acid from the body and many swear by it for treating gouty joints. It functions by facilitating the elimination of urates from the body. Nettle will work both as a tea or a tincture. The teas are fine for milder cases, but the tinctures are usually recommended in more severe cases of gout.

- Devil’s Claw – devil’s claw is a natural anti-inflammatory that also features properties for minimizing pain. It has also been known to facilitate the elimination of uric acid from the body, therefore helping to shorten gout attacks and prevent them from recurring.

- Turmeric – turmeric is not only a common spice in many forms of cooking, but it also inhibits prostaglandins (involved in pain) synthesis in the body. The way it functions is quite similar to the action of ibuprofen or aspirin, only at a weaker level. When the doses are high enough, though, turmeric will stimulate the adrenal glands so that the body will begin the production and release of natural cortisones, which will rapidly and effectively reduce pain and inflammation.

- Bromelain and Quercetin – these substances are best used together. Quercetin is an anti-inflammatory and may inhibit xantine oxidase, which causes the body to produce less uric acid. It can be found in supplements, onions, apples, pink grapefruit, watermelon, elderberries, and green leafy vegetables. It can also be found in black tea, green tea, and elderberry juice. Bromelain, the active ingredient found in pineapple, is also an anti-inflammatory and is available through dietary supplement.

- Yucca – yucca is an effective blood purifier, which helps to reduce the pain of gout and arthritis. It also helps to decrease the build-up of toxins in the body, therefore assisting in the prevention of gout. It can also break-up inorganic mineral deposits and obstructions in the joints as well as decreasing joint inflammation, two major symptoms of gout.

Of course, knowing how to cure gout isn’t just a matter of what you consume, but also what you do. As important as herbs and other remedies are to treating gout in a natural way, so is exercise, when done properly. Remember to consult your doctor before taking any natural remedies for the first time.
