Easy Weight Loss for Dog Lovers

By Michael Bens If you need to lose weight, more than likely you are thinking in terms of diet and exercise plans, not pets. There are, however, several reasons why getting a dog may be the best thing you ever do, in terms of weight loss. Having a dog can lead to several small but significant lifestyle changes that all add up, over time! For one thing, a dog requires a minimum of one hour a day of walking and thats every day, not just sunny days, and not just when you feel like it. Of course, you can just take the dog into the yard and throw the ball for it, but why not take advantage of your canine companion and go for real walks every day? Its better for you, and better for the dog. Over time, it gets to be very enjoyable. Some people feel that just the act of getting a new puppy is weight loss measure in and of itself. Until its trained, its more than likely to keep you on your toes youll be lucky to get a chance to sit down and eat, let alone cook! That initial crazy period usually ends pretty quickly, though. Besides walking, here are some other tips for easy weight loss with dogs. Heres a great trick feed any bits of food you dont want or think you shouldnt eat to the dog. For example, I havent eaten a toast crust in over two years. I used to eat them just to be rid of them. It just seems wrong to throw them in the garbage, somehow. But feeding them to the dog is nothing more or less than symbiotic. You may not think this is a great weight loss measure, by the way, but Im sure that all those crusts add up! I must admit (and veterinary dog food purists, close your ears!) that it goes a bit further than that. What if you have made a yummy pasta dish, and theres just a little left, not really enough to be worth putting in a plastic container and saving? If its not so good, Id throw it out, but if it is good, that puts me in a spot. Ill probably either eat it outright despite being full, or pick away at it over the course of a few hours until its gone. This can be avoided if you just simply and automatically give it to the dog. After all, dogs evolved alongside humans for millennia in exactly this way. They ate the leftovers of whatever their human companions were eating. Nowadays, the pet food industry cautions us against doing so, but if the food youre eating is reasonably healthy, whos to say that feeding small bits of it to the dog will do the dog any harm at all? Personally, I have, on occasion, sunk even lower than that in canine gastrointestinal abuse. There is a brand of white cheddar popcorn, marketed as Smartfood and sold in huge bags, with about a day and a half worth of calories in each. I love it. I love it so much I have been known to eat a whole bag over the course of a few hours. Its delicious. Its the kind of thing I should never buy a bag of. But if I do, and Ive ripped into it, and its disappearing, I can do damage control by periodically pausing in my binging to tip large amounts of the popcorn into a bowl on the floor, where it is just as quickly eaten up by the dog. It helps to have a big dog. I dont know that any of these measures would work so well with a little one that cant eat quickly. It helps, also, if the dog is at least half black lab. They are purported to have iron cast stomachs, rather like goats, and this has proven to be true in the case of my dog as proven when, at the age of eleven months, she ate four tubes of oil paint, metal and all. She ate all the reds, yellows and oranges, strangely enough ignoring the cool side of the color wheel completely and, amazingly, suffered no ill consequences at all!

Those Other Apostles

By Dave McKay Ask yourself as a Christian, who, in all history, would you most envy? Would it be one of the heroes of the Old Testament? Would it be a famous saint in the history of the church? Or would it be one of the people in the New Testament who was healed, or in some other way, touched by Christ himself? Surely, the Twelve Apostles - those who lived and worked with Jesus on a daily basis for three whole years - must have been the most privileged people in all history, and the ones we would most like to have been. Like the small handful of people who have walked on the moon, they alone would have had intimate knowledge of something that the rest of the human race could only dream of. There were multitudes of people who caught a glimpse of Jesus, who witnessed one or more of his miracles, who heard him preach on at least one occasion. Christians living today could certainly envy any one of them. But there are only twelve who were there with him through it all. Twelve men were hand selected by Jesus Christ himself, the Son of God, the Creator of the Universe. They were picked from thousands who came to hear what Jesus was saying, at a time in history which he described as a spiritually “green tree”. These men were the “creme de la creme”, the best of the best. Amongst them were Simon Peter (“The Rock”), and several pairs of famous brothers. There were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Andrew and Phillip the fishermen, and Matthew the tax collector and his brother… the other James. “The other James?” you might ask. It’s true that, apart from being included in the lists of the Twelve Apostles, this other son of Alphaeus is never mentioned anywhere else in the Bible. And the same can be said for the other Simon (the Canaanite) and the other Judas… although some people think he may have been the Jude who wrote a one-page letter right near the end of the New Testament. Nothing more is known of Bartholomew either. And men like Thomas, Phillip, and Matthew are only mentioned briefly in a couple of other places. In Thomas’ case, he is primarily remembered today as “doubting Thomas” because of his skepticism about the resurrection. And yet Christ himself selected these men to sit as judges over the twelve tribes of Israel. He placed them above Noah, Moses, King David, Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Elijah. Imagine that! Bartholomew, someone we know almost nothing about, lecturing Elijah on how to be spiritual! But that’s how it is. The eleventh chapter of Hebrews lists many of the heroes of faith in the Bible, but then concludes with a reference to others, “of whom the world is not worthy”, who died without receiving deliverance, and without being recognised by the world in general for their faith and courage. These people, too, were considered greater in God’s eyes than the big name heroes of the Old Testament. Even now, few Christians realise, for example, that “Doubting Thomas” journeyed all the way to India, where he started a branch of Christianity that continues to this day. He died a martyr’s death in a cave that he had been hiding in because of the persecution that his message had inspired amongst the local population. Maybe you feel at times like Peter, James, and John are such superstars that they are out of your league. But don’t forget that the Son of God had room in his tiny circle of favourite friends for some nondescripts like yourself as well. And the list is not finished yet. The book that GOD is writing is still being written. And there’s still room to have your name included amongst spiritual giants like Bartholomew and Simon the Canaanite, and James the Son of Alphaeus, and that other Judas… you know, the one no one remembers, because he did not betray Jesus!

Spice Up Your Relationship: Dress Like You’re Interested - Again

By EM Sky The subconscious mind plays a huge role in both dating and relationships. All human encounters are profoundly affected by the subconscious signals we are constantly sending and receiving. Holding someone’s gaze indicates interest. Standing up straight indicates physical health and self-confidence. Below our usual level of awareness lies a subconscious rationality that is constantly feeding us information - good information - based upon years of experience in observing other human beings. When we’re dating, we tend to become more aware of these observations. We pay close attention to what the other person wears, to their body language, to how he or she behaves toward us. We are tuned in to this “animal brain” dialog because we are looking for indications of interest and compatibility. But what happens when a relationship becomes “solid” and those animal brains drop back below the surface? Well, they’re still there, of course, still feeding us information. So when that partner stops looking interested in our ideas, or stops leaning into the conversation in that “I like you” kind of way, or stops dressing to catch our attention, we notice. We might not always know exactly what we’re noticing, but we notice. And we understand that the relationship just doesn’t seem to have the “zing” that it used to. So here’s one simple way to put a little life back into that relationship: start dressing like you’re interested… again. It’s easy when you’re in a long-term relationship to start thinking that it doesn’t really matter what you wear. This person loves you for you, so why not wear that favorite T-shirt and those blue jeans instead of putting in the effort? Well, there’s certainly nothing wrong with being comfortable. But never dressing up for your partner sends a loud “animal brain” message: I’m not interested in you anymore. Is that what you’re trying to say? Of course not. It probably isn’t even how you feel. But the animal brain beneath the conscious mind doesn’t care about intentions. It just reads the signals. Dressing down does send positive messages about our comfort level. It says, “I know you love me no matter what.” But dressing up sends positive messages about our sexual interest. It says, “I think you’re hot, and I want you to remember just how hot I can be too.” Without these sexual signals to balance out that comfort level, any relationship can start to feel just a bit too “chummy.” And while the advice applies equally to both sexes, it’s especially important for men to remember that their wardrobe matters. Women have plenty of ways to send visual signals of sexual interest: make-up, perfume, feminine clothing, sexy shoes, lingerie. But guys, even with your more limited options, you’re still sending definite signals to your partner. A little cologne and a button-down shirt - especially coupled with a nice dinner that she doesn’t have to make - will go a long way toward reminding your lady just why she fell for you in the first place. –EM Sky has been a math instructor for The Johns Hopkins University, a special effects technician in Hollywood, a project manager for BellSouth, and a rock climbing instructor in Atlanta.

Market Research: An Example with Qualitative and Quantitative Research

By Chris Hawkes In a previous article Market Research: Qualitative, Quantitative and Everything In-Between we explained the differences between quantitative and qualitative market research studies. We also promised to provide an example of a two-phase research approach, in order to highlight the differences between qualitative and quantitative research approaches. Heres our example: QuickStop Convenience Stores Once upon a time there was a very successful convenience store, well call it QuickStop. At some point the management team began to worry that QuickStop wasnt being patronized by as many women as men and that QuickStop was losing a valuable part of the market. Research Objective A research project was designed to understand how women felt about shopping at QuickStop stores and why. It was decided that this research should be qualitative and the specific methodology would be In-depth-Interviews. The belief was that these women might be less likely to talk about their feelings about convenience stores in a group, so one-on-one interviews made the most sense. Qualitative Research About two dozen current or potential female customers were paid to come into a central facility to discuss the use of convenience stores in general, and specifically QuickStop convenience stores. The results were very surprising to the management team. The major qualitative findings included the following: Women viewed convenience stores to be primarily designed for men, with little or no consideration for women,The bathrooms at convenience stores were believed to be the dirtiest that could be found in a city - gross was the most common description and that perception permeated everything that women felt about convenience stores in generalQuickStop was seen as one of the worst of convenience stores kind of the place for a man to buy gas, get a six-pack of cheap beer and cigarettes, but not the kind of place I want to go. Quantitative Research Once the management team had an understanding of what issues they faced with female customers, they felt that they needed to understand how broadly these beliefs were held. Now they needed to get some hard numbers, and that meant that they needed to conduct quantitative market research. The research objective for this phase of research were: Understand how female customers of QuickStop differ from those that dont regularly visit these stores.Understand whether or not a renovation of QuickStop could entice each group to visit more frequently (or at all depending on whether the respondent currently avoided QuickStop entirely). For the quantitative phase of research they decided to conduct 250 telephone interviews with a combination of female respondents. The requirements to participate in this phase of research were that: half of the respondents stated that they had used QuickStop at least five times in the last year, and the other half admitted to intentionally avoiding QuickStop altogether, although they did use other brands of convenience stores. The major results from the quantitative phase indicated that: Over 76% of all female QuickStop customers were women under 30 years old, without children, while women with children and with higher incomes were 5 times less likely to shop at QuickStopThe good news was that of the women who didnt currently use QuickStop, 64% said that if these stores were to update their color schemes, clean up their bathrooms and update their health and feminine products that they would be willing to try QuickStop again. The two phases of research gave the QuickStop management team a very good understanding of where they currently stood with female customers and why. Their quantitative research also indicated that those women who were not currently using their stores would forgive them if the changed their ways. Their decision now was to decide if gaining more middle-aged women as customers was worth the cost of updating their stores and spending more money to keep them clean and neat. I hope that this example has helped to clarify the different uses and benefits of both qualitative and quantitative market research.

3 Simple Steps to Avoid Buying Counterfeit Medications Online

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Joshua_Daly] Joshua Daly Believe it or not, not all illegal drug deals go down in dark alleys or in the back of crowded clubs. The easiest place for someone to take advantage of you is where you feel the safest and most secure. This means that one of the easiest places where the consumer can be exploited is the online market. Ordering your prescriptions online can be cheaper, more time consuming and even just as safe, if you know what to look out for. Even if you do not purchase your prescriptions online, you are still at risk. Counterfeits have been found anywhere that their legitimate equivalent is sold. This could be anywhere from doctors offices, flea markets, pharmacies, or even hospitals. Even though some counterfeits can be detrimental to your health, most are just to make money. Sugar pills, placeboes, and half doses are all types of counterfeit drugs that hurt your wallet more than you. Others may be slight variations in recipe and may contain filler ingredients that could be detrimental to your health. Not all prescription drugs are exactly what the label may tell you they are, and here are a few tips to help you recognize if you are taking counterfeit medication. Unexplained differences in pill shape or size compared to medication taken previously. Differences in how the pill tastes, if there is a variance in color or consistency. For example, the pills may seem more powdery or may be chipped. Most importantly, if you notice a change in the effectiveness of drug. Although these are good ways to determine if you are currently taking counterfeit prescription medication, unfortunately this means that you have already purchased the counterfeit meds and your money has gone down the drain. The best way to deal with this problem is to catch it before it happens. Consumer advocacy websites like NoPrescriptioNeeded.com serve as a watchdog group to make sure that only the most reputable pharmacies that offer the highest quality prescription medication are presented for you to purchase from. NPN does this through their pharmacy ratings system, which allows members to leave feedback in order to weed out fraudulent websites that sale unsafe counterfeit medication.

Top 10 Ways to a Healthy Colon and Reduce Back Pain!

By Nancy Redlich Help your back with a Healthy Colon! There are many ways to help your back pain. Keeping a healthy digestive tract is one of them. Top 10 Ways to a healthy colon and reduce your back pain! 1. Drink 1/2 your body weight ounces of water per day. If you weigh 150 lbs. start drinking 75 oz/water per day. Most people are dehydrated and don’t even know it. When we are tired, sluggish, fatigued and lethargic we are most likely dehydrated or need nutrition (food) or both. When we are dehydrated all of our normal bodily functions slow down and we do not have a good exchange of chemicals, nutrients and normal metabolism for healing. 2. Eat dark leafy vegetables such as kale, collard greens & spinach All full of great vitamins, minerals & essential nutrients for healing and add fiber to assist in our GI motility. 3. Add Omega 3 Fish Oils or Plant-based Omegas such as Flaxseed, Evening Primrose or Borage oils to your diet. Omega 3 & 6’s are natural anti-inflammatories and help with lipid (fat), cholesterol heart & brain functions. 4. Reduce refined sugars from your diet. Diets high in corn syrup, hydrogenated corn oils, sucrose, and other refined processed foods also contain toxic chemicals that can become a breeding ground for yeast and candida. If this occurs, there can be a significant increase in fluid and inflammation in the intestines and colon, which could reduce their ability to process toxins. These can overflow into your system and create a variety of symptoms, not only in your gut but can put pressure on other organs and your spine. 5. Reduce dependence on Wheat & Glutens. Switch to Rice based products. Wheats & Glutens (proteins found in wheat, oats, rye & barley) can irritate your iliocecal valve which is a large sphincter between the large & small intestines. This valve often becomes inflammed from irritation from the wheat products and causes it to stay stuck open. Once this occurs, toxins from the large intestines can leak into the small intestines (backflow) causing an environment of inflammation. This can cause many types of referred pain, one being back pain. 6. Normal bowel function is within 30-45 minutes after each meal. If you are not moving your bowels often you are constipated. This means you are not getting rid of potential bacteria, toxins & chemicals. If you find yourself constipated, try adding aloe vera juice to your diet, or drink 4-6 oz. of organic prune juice per day. Additional benefits are colostrum and ground flaxseed. 7. Use only unrefined Olive Oil, Coconut Oil, Flaxseed Oil and stay away from refined oils including Corn oil, canola oil, cotton seed oil (these will clog your gut and irritate your iliececal valve). 8. Avoid too many dairy products. Often mucous producing. Dairy and the lactose (sugars) & caesin (proteins) found in dairy can create an environment of inflammation in the colon, and/or possible increase in candida or yeast growth. 9. Exercise to keep your colon motility healthy. Yoga & Pilates are the best ways to target your gut & core! 10. Follow a good healthy diet. “The blood type diet” by Peter D’adamo is a great start. Also, “The Body Ecology Diet” is a great place to learn about balancing your sugars & yeast.

Bad Credit Personal Loans

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Kent_Pinkerton]Kent Pinkerton If you have bad credit but need to borrow money fast, dont fret there are still lenders who give personal loans to people in your situation. You can now easily secure personal loans, and if you know how to handle this opportunity, you can get back on track to financial health. The first thing to remember: do not act hastily. Thousands of people are also in the same financial rut as you, and a lot of lenders are willing to tap this particular demographic. These lenders are now competing for your business so you have the option to compare before you select. Take your time to find a personal loan lender who can give you the lowest rates. Dont make the mistake of signing up with the first one you see chances are strong that someone else would be willing to give you a lower interest rate. Be realistic. You will surely find much better deals in bad-credit personal loans now than you could have in the past, but dont live in the clouds you will still be faced with interest rates much higher than the rates given to people with good credit. In the eyes of lending institutions, you are still a high-risk borrower, and lenders protect themselves from your possible nonpayment by subjecting you to steep interest rates. So before you even begin to consider taking out a personal loan, take a moment to assess your current financial situation. Can you make do even without borrowing money? If you scrimp on some nonessentials, you may be able to augment your current cash flow so that you wont need a loan anymore. Can you sell some of your assets to improve your liquidity? Some people sell electronic equipment they dont use, old clothing, and some even let go of their cars and just commute to work in order to increase their savings. If you are willing to make sacrifices, you may not need a personal loan. If you really need to borrow money, though, be sure to responsibly pay your creditor. Adjust your budget and make monthly payments your priority. Dont dig yourself deeper into a hole by being remiss in paying your bad-credit personal loan. See this opportunity as a chance to get yourself back into financial health. Use the money you borrow wisely, and you will soon be on your way to good credit.

Two Different Personal Ads

By Vittorio Norman The first type of ad which you can write is based on having high standards and knowing what you want and don’t want. Women will respond to it because it shows that you have character and aren’t willing to take whatever you can get your hands on. For example: “I am interested in meeting a classy woman with taste, and who has more than one thing going for her (ie. looks). It is equally important that she is respectful but also knows how to let her hair down and show the wild side she has been repressing all week at the office. I like women that understand things in their own way and aren’t clones. If you are a clone then please skip to the next ad. Do it now. But if you have something more going on, then we might be a good match…” In the second type of ad you apply a different, but equally effective, philosophy. Say a lot with little. You display an attitude that she has to search for in order to understand. This attitude is related to the dark and mysterious, where you are indifferent and have nothing to prove. For example: “Interested in hanging out with someone cool, who can make me laugh, and has interesting points of view. Lots going on, so it would be nice to share some quality time with someone when I am able to make the time for more than the mediocre.” As you can see, both show very different approaches one can take. Experiment and see what happens. Copyright 2006 Vittorio Norman Vittorio Norman provides a step-by-step guide for meeting women online, in his latest ebook.

Maid Of Honor And Best Man - What You Need To Know For The Perfect Wedding

By L Hayes When preparing for your wedding, you may feel as if you have millions of details to manage. From caterers, to dresses and music, to the church, a number of decisions must be made prior to the eventful day. Even on the actual wedding day, it seems as though decisions are being made from when to start getting the hair and makeup done, to when to arrive at the church. For many couples, all of the planning of a wedding would seem impossible were it not for the fact that the couple is surrounded by close friends and family members. These individuals, some of whom are in the wedding party, are there to help make the wedding day a huge success. Although most people have a good idea as to the responsibilities for the wedding party, here is some more detailed information that can help with preparations. Depending on the decisions of the bride and groom, the wedding party could include only two people standing up for the bride and for the groom, to thirteen apiece or more. Regardless of the size of the wedding party, each member has a distinct role that, together, makes for the perfect occasion. For the happy couple, the two most important members of the wedding party are the maid of honor and the best man. Typically, the maid of honor is the brides sister or closest friend, while the best man is the grooms brother or best friend. On the brides side, her maid of honor typically hosts her bridal shower and lends her support for months leading up to the wedding, doing anything possible to assist. The best man does much the same, lending support for the groom, helping him with his responsibilities. During the time prior to the wedding, the best man consults with both the groom and the maid of honor, ensuring that wedding plans are going according to schedule. Additionally, the best man coordinates transportation to and from the wedding site, the reception for the couple, and keeping track of rented wedding attire and accessories being picked up by the groomsmen. On the day of the wedding, the best man helps the groom get ready, waiting with him at the church for his beautiful bride. Finally, the best man serves as an official witness to the ceremony, signing documents along with the maid of honor. The maid of honor is the bride’s assistant, helping her with almost every aspect of the wedding planning. For example, the maid of honor has the responsibility to make the brides life as easy as possible during the planning stage. On the day of the wedding, the maid of honor assists the bride in getting dressed. Once the bridal party arrives at the church, the maid of honor checks the bride’s dress and train, making sure it is straight and ready for her to walk down the aisle. Throughout the day, the maid of honor offers her help whenever it is needed. Although exciting, and even fun, planning a wedding is a tremendous amount of work. In addition to the bride and grooms parents offering their support, the couple would certainly be lost without the friendship and assistance of the best man and maid of honor. In summary, the best man and maid of honor lend solid support throughout the planning of the wedding to make this a perfect day. Without doubt, both the best man and maid of honor are integral parts of the wedding, playing a huge role in the overall success of this all-important day.
