Therefore, we must live our life today with full responsibility, save whatever energy we can save so we leave them a world worth living in. Talking about energy saving, a lot of thing we can do.

Food Could Cause You Age Faster

Watch out what you eat! It turns out that the type of sandwich fixing you choose could cause you to age faster. And the bread stuffing that really sticks it to you? Processed meat. In a study, researchers found that people who ate the highest amount of processed meat -think salami, pressed ham, and bologna- showed the greatest signs of wear and tear in a key marker of cellular aging.

Telltale Telomeres

The people who ate the most processed meat had the shortest telomeres. Not a good thing, because telomeres are those tiny protective coverings on the ends of your DNA strands. The shorter they get, the older your body is on a cellular level -and the wider the door opens to problems such as heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic conditions. In the study, the telomeres of the processed-meat lovers showed about 3.4 extra years of aging compared with those who ate the least processed meat.

A Processing Problem

What's so bad about processed meats? The trouble is that they tend to be packed with a whole bunch of bad things like saturated fat, sodium, cholesterol, nitrates, and nitrites - all things believed to be linked to telomere-shortening inflammation.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Go Online!

Crisis isn’t over yet and with this condition still surrounds us; it means men need more effort, more time in office, more time to make money. People tend to work harder than ever. What happen next is not too good for us in general, not good for our personal life and of course not good for family. We leave home early every morning; parents leave their kids since sunrise despite the fact that their kids still in beds. They come home after their kids have already in beds and there is nothing good in this kind of situation. We need good things to gain back our strength; we need to play some games, off line or online games such as society games or perhaps some online casinos games.

Unmarried people also face the same terrible situation. Leaving their houses early in the morning and arrives at home very late, to an empty house -not a home- only to get some bad quality rests that make them even more tired to start the next day. With this condition, we all need to be reminded again that we live not only to feed and work but also to have some break, we need vacation! We need to travel, we need to socialize, and we need to play USA Casinos, whatever it takes to make us happy!

In such a crisis time, we need to exercise options, only selecting the most efficient ones, money wise and time wise, if possible we reduce, reuse, recycle, and we must go online. We play but we need to bear in mind that we need to save money too. Try to exchange goods with friends (reuse). When play online games, choose smarter, pick free or games that offer bonuses, when it comes to card players, pick something like no deposit casinos. There are many ways to earn good things particularly when we go online. So, reduce, reuse, recycle, and go online!

Obesity Surgery in England Increase Ten Times Since 2000

Obesity SurgeryThe use of weight loss surgery or bariatric surgery, is ten times more frequent in NHS hospitals in England, than it was in 2000, a new study published on bmj.com finds.

A team of researchers from the Imperial College London analyzed national results after surgery on obese patients in the NHS in England.

They used the Hospital Episode Statistics database, and they identified all adult patients that have had a first elective bariatric intervention between April 2000 and March 2008.

Scientists also recorded mortality rates 30 days and one year after surgery, as well as the overall hospital stay and unplanned readmission rates.

During this time period, a total of 6,953 bariatric procedures were carried out, the number of procedures rising more than ten-fold from 238 in 2000 to 2,543 in 2007, e! Science News reports.

Gastric banding proved to be less dangerous than gastric bypass, as patients that underwent gastric banding had lower post-surgery mortality and readmission rates, as well as a shorter length of stay, but the poorest post-surgery outcome belonged to patients with comorbidities.

Another type of procedures that saw its rates increase were laparoscopic procedures, from 28% in 2000 to 75% in 2007, but as it did not cause any increase in mortality or unplanned readmission, scientists suggested it has been introduced in a safe manner into the NHS.

One explanation for this increase in weight loss surgery is the higher demand of patients that become aware that surgery is a viable treatment option.

The surgery is performed only on people who are dangerously obese, with the purpose of loosing weight, and the most common interventions are: reducing the size of the stomach with a surgical band (gastric banding), re-routing the small intestines to a small stomach pouch (gastric bypass), or removing a portion of the stomach (sleeve gastrectomy).

The interventions reduce the risk of death, hospital admissions and long term expenses for the health department, and are recommended by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) for people with "morbid obesity" (body mass index of at least 40 or of at least 35 if accompanied by coexisting disease that could be improved by weight loss).

Possible candidates must have tried all other non-surgical treatments and failed, before they can actually have bariatric surgery, according to NHS official regulation, but who knows exactly?

SkyFire for iPhone?

SkyFire for iPhoneSkyFire is the smart phone browser that was chewing through Flash video and other rich media long before any of the built-in browsers were supporting such things — and on a number of platforms, it’s still the only option.

We’ve known that SkyFire Labs was crackin’ away at an iPhone port for some time now — the company confirmed it after Opera got a surprise App Store thumbs up. But when would it be done? More importantly, when would it be submitted for that oh-so-important stamp of approval? Soon, according to reliable sources.

It’s by no means official just yet, but a pair of much-trusted little birdies have just informed me that SkyFire has just entered the final testing phase of what they intend to be the first public iPhone build, with plans to submit to Apple early next week.

Latest Installment of Medal of Honor Stirs Controversy

Medal of HonorMedal of Honor and its developers have found themselves in the news a lot recently for many reasons. There is good press, which they are getting because of announcements made at GamesCom, and then there is bad press, which they are getting from the continent of Europe.

This installment of the Medal of Honor has been no stranger to controversy. Similar to some recent movies which despict the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, Medal of Honor has garnered some critics who say that the exploitation of the current situation in the middle east is in poor taste.

That had, however, blown of, due in part to the announcement of certain improvements at GamesCom. Amid the excitement over the promise of better graphics and weapons and game realisticness, Europe, and specifically Britain has gotten up in arms over the game.

The sticking point is that in the upcoming game you have the option to play as either NATO forces or a member of the Taliban. Now, as a member of the Taliban, you would of course be shooting, and killing British troops.

This even has the British Minister of Defense, Liam Fox, chiming in about the game. Mr. Fox stated that, "the game is totally against the British, and it is mocking the families who lost their husbands and fathers in the War."

Kim Kardashian begs fan not to get plastic surgery to look like her

Kim KardashianKim Kardashian may soon be seeing double and no, we're not referring to her wax look-alike at Madame Tussauds.

Us Weekly reports that the starlet found herself amidst a plastic surgery controversy when one rabid fan Tweeted to her on Saturday, "I'm getting head 2 toe plastic surgery nxt week 2 look like @kimkardashian so my husband won't leave me. He worships her.”

Kardashian, who has openly admitted that she isn't against going under the knife, pleaded with the fan, whose profile is no longer available, "Pls dont. Ur husband should love u 4 who u are! Don't try 2 b someone else. Im sure u are beautiful inside &out! Just as u are"

Nintendo 3DS to revolutionize industry

Nintendo 3DSThe Nintendo 3DS, which may be months away from being released, will revolutionize the game industry, Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter said in a note to investors Monday.

"We view the 3DS as a revolutionary device, and expect its launch to spur hardware and software sales," Pachter said.

Pachter said games for the portable 3D-gaming device will go for a premium compared to other portable game machines. He believes that thanks to the 3DS' functionality and expected success, games for the device will retail for $29, rather than "a blended average of around $25 today."

Of course, Pachter is speculating. Nintendo has yet to reveal how much the device will cost, how games will be priced, and when it will launch. Regardless, it seems that the market might agree with Pachter's belief that the 3DS will be revolutionary.

2011 BMW 535i

BMW 535i 2011The 2011 BMW 535i is easily one of the best sport sedans in its class for handling, fit and finish, and prestige, but it doesn't represent the highest value on the market.

The new-for-2011 BMW 5 Series is no mere visual refresh. This updated model is physically larger, yet visually smaller. It features updated drivetrain tech and an overhauled infotainment system, but has the 5 Series lost some of the fabled BMW driving dynamic with this revision?

Beneath the BMW's hood breathes a 300-horsepower, TwinPower turbocharged three-liter inline six-cylinder engine. Beneath the BMW's hood breathes a 300-horsepower, TwinPower turbocharged three-liter inline six-cylinder engine. However, this isn't exactly the same mill that can be found in the previous model year.

Power delivery is smooth, with a flat torque curve that makes the inline six-cylinder feel more like a small displacement V-8.

The 5 Series' cabin tech package checks all of the right boxes, but only if you make sure to check the those boxes when making your purchase, as nearly all of the Beemer's gee-whiz gadgets are optional.

Starting at the top of the center console, the BMW's wide-screen hard-drive-based navigation system features 3D terrain data and satellite imagery when zoomed far enough out and, in major metropolitan areas, 3D building data when zoomed far enough in. The wide screen allows users to split the screen to display secondary data (audio source, trip computers, and turn-by-turn directions) alongside the map, or fill the entire screen with the beautifully rendered maps. The navigation system also features traffic data.

Bluetooth connectivity with BMW Assist is standard on the 535i. BMW Assist is the automaker's connected-telematics system that integrates GPS positioning, cellular connectivity, and something of a concierge service to give you access to a live operator who will assist the driver with locating destinations (and cueing up the vehicle's turn-by-turn directions) or alerting first responder services in the event of an emergency.

The system also enables hands-free calling with voice activated dialing and supports Bluetooth PBAP, allowing it to automatically import contacts from a paired handset that also supports this profile. A2DP audio streaming is not supported, so smartphone users wanting to get their Internet streaming-radio fix will need to use the BMW's analog auxiliary input.

Tom Cruise with Brand New Mustang Saleen S281

Tom Cruise with Brand New MustangTom's choice is a little surprising, given the family's unlimited budget and the fact that the Mustang is a fairly average car. The actor, 48, was spotted leaving a Scientology meeting with wife Katie Holmes, 31 and daughter Suri, four, in a brand new Mustang Saleen S281. However, this is a specialised version and the price for a Saleen S281 starts at just under $50,000.

Earlier this week, Tom also made time for his family on a shopping trip. Despite a hectic schedule promoting his new movie Knight and Day with co-star Cameron Diaz which took them most recently in Brazil, Tom went with his wife on a shopping trip to the Century City Westfield outdoor mall in LA.

The trio strolled together looking like any happy family. Suri enjoyed a frozen treat while Katie picked up some threads from stylish celebrity-favorite boutique Madewell.

Knight and Day sees Tom in his typical action-man role. This time he plays secret agent Roy Miller. Miller partners up with Cameron Diaz's character June Havens in a dash across the world as rival agents try to shoot them, blow them up and run them over.

The Dark Side of Perfectionism Revealed

Perfectionists, by definition, strive for the best, trying to ace exams, be meticulous at their jobs, and raise perfect children. So one might assume this drive for the ideal translates over to their health as well, with perfectionist being models for physical and mental well-being.

But new research is revealing the trait can bring both profits and perils.

Though perfection is an impossible goal, striving for it can be a boon for one's health, causing one to stick to exercise programs to a tee, say, or follow a strict regimen for treating chronic illnesses like type 2 diabetes. But the same lofty goals can mean added mental pressure when mistakes are made and the resistance to asking for help from others in fear of revealing one's true, imperfect self.

In fact studies show the personality trait of perfectionism is linked to poor physical health and an increased risk of death.

Spanish Press Hails 'Epic' World Cup Win

Spain wins world cup 2010Spanish newspapers on Monday hailed Spain’s “epic” and “historic” first ever World Cup win. “Champions of the world,” top-selling daily El Pais said on its front page above a photo of keeper Iker Casillas holding the trophy above his head as he stood surrounded by his teammates.

“The national team has consolidated the leadership of a dazzling generation,” it added.

The newspaper called the 1-0 extra-time win over the Netherlands in Johannesburg the “epic which was missing from Spanish sports, which has lived in glory following a cascade of successes.” “Champions,” wrote right-wing newspaper ABC on its front page below a similar photo of Casillas holding the trophy.

“It is the biggest success in the history of Spanish football, a title which when added to other no less relevant titles, places Spain in the leadership of the major spanish sports like basketball, tennis, cycling or motorcycle racing,” it added in an editorial. “From here to eternity,” wrote centre-right daily El Mundo on its front page.

Japanese couples say "I do" in divorce ceremonies

divorceWith divorce on the rise in Japan, some couples are choosing to celebrate the end of an unhappy marriage by saying "I do" for a final time at a divorce ceremony before friends and family.

Divorce ceremonies were pioneered about a year ago by a former salesman, Hiroki Terai, who set up a "divorce mansion" in a small undercover space in Tokyo.

Since then about 25 couples have each paid 55,000 yen ($606) to hold a ceremony with all the pomp and grandeur of a wedding that publicly ends their relationship before they officially file for divorce. Terai said he had received more than 900 inquiries.

The latest couple, who called themselves Mr. and Mrs. Fujii, met near Sensoji Temple in Tokyo's traditional Asakusa area on Sunday and rode in separate rickshaws to the "divorce mansion."

Coffee Doesn't Wake You up

Coffee Doesn't Wake You upThe most recent study conducted by researchers found that Coffee doesn’t really wake you up. So why do we have such feeling? According to researchers it is just an illusion triggered by public opinion, as coffee has been widely correlated with wake up process.

We often hear from many that their brain doesn’t start working properly in the morning until they drink a cup of coffee. But the stimulating effect for which caffeine is famous may be an illusion, say researchers.

Those who drink a lot of coffee may feel more alert after their first cup of the day. But this is probably because it reverses the fatiguing effects of overnight caffeine withdrawal, say the researchers.

Their study suggests coffee drinkers may actually be better off without their habitual morning mug as it raises the risk of anxiety and high blood pressure.

Recently, Zynga has announced to share its games on Yahoo. It could be on yahoo’s several platforms including Yahoo Mail, Yahoo Chat or Yahoo homepage.

Here's What You Do to Stop Shopping

Stop shoppingYou don't have the willpower even you need to stop shopping. There are plenty of ways to still get everything you want without opening your wallet. Here are just few of them:

Borrowing, bartering, and taking stuff others want to unload are age-old strategies for getting what you need without spending any money. Luckily, there are a growing number of new twists on these old standbys.

Staying away from the mall is a great way to save money, gas, the resources needed for making new products from scratch, and space in the landfill.

Log onto Freecycle and other reuse groups, or search the "free stuff" category on Craigslist to find things your neighbors are giving away is just another thing you can do to stop shopping.

Sleep Better and Save Money

You don't have to spend a fortune on bedding to get a good night's sleep. Taking good care of the pillows, comforters, and sheets you already own will help you sleep like a baby and also save you money because you won't have to replace them as often.

Below are some tips for making the most of what you have:

Pillows:
Cover your pillow in two layers to protect it from dust, dirt, and body oils. The first layer should be a case with a zipper and then put a traditional pillowcase over the zippered cover.

You can throw polyester, feather, and down pillows into your washing machine. Use the delicate cycle. Be sure to check the seams on down pillows first so that feathers don't leak out. Good Housekeeping columnist Heloise suggests washing two at a time for balance.

Comforters:
Use a duvet cover to protect your comforter and wash it regularly.

Shake out your down comforter once a week to keep the down from bunching up. Airing it outside occasionally will keep it fresh.

Sheets:
Stay away from laundry sheets and fabric softeners. Why? They dull colors, and it's difficult to get rid of the residue they leave behind. (They'll also make your towels less absorbent.)

Don't use bleaches or detergents with optical brightens because they can weaken and discolor your sheets. Using a delicate detergent and rinsing well will keep your sheets soft.

Wal-Mart cuts iPhone 3GS price in half

iPhone 3gsWal-Mart says it's cutting the price of the most up-to-date iPhone in half. That's another sign Apple is getting ready to unveil a new model.

Wal-Mart says that starting Tuesday the iPhone 3GS with 16 gigabytes of storage space will cost $97 with a two-year contract with AT&T. It currently costs $197.

Apple declined to comment on whether it's planning to release a new iPhone soon, or whether it will also sell the iPhone 3GS for less.

The company's annual developer conference kicks off June 7. Apple unveiled the iPhone 3GS at the same event last year.

Consume Too Much Good Things Can Be Bad

There are some things that you just can't have too much of. It can be damaging if you consume too much. Below are some surprising examples.

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that needs to be ingested every day because our bodies don't produce or store it. What your body doesn't need is flushed out in your urine, but it's still possible to take too much. Mega-doses of vitamin C can cause gastritis, nausea, diarrhea, and kidney stones, according to the Mayo Clinic. In rare cases it can make you tired and dizzy.

Protein helps build muscle, blood, skin, hair, nails, and more. There is a long list of health benefits associated with eating proper amounts of protein from providing energy to keeping the immune system in good shape. But eating too much protein can cause kidney problems, dehydration, and osteoporosis, and it may be linked to certain cancers.

Soybeans are popular because they boast many health benefits from lowering cholesterol to reducing the risk of certain types of cancer, but that doesn't mean you should eat soy foods with abandon. Some compounds in soybeans mimic the hormone estrogen. Animal studies suggest that large amounts of soy might reduce fertility in women, trigger early puberty, and disrupt development in fetuses and children.

Exercise is something most of us don't get enough of. About 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day is enough to ward off chronic diseases such as diabetes, improve mood, and deliver a whole bunch of health benefits. Shoot for at least 60 minutes a day, 5 to 6 times a week if you want to get the most benefits from exercise. Is there such a thing as too much exercise? Yes, and it can lead to injuries, exhaustion, depression, and long-term health problems.

The same rules apply for things that are traditionally thought of as being bad for you. Moderate amounts of dark chocolate, coffee, and red wine can be good for you, so go ahead and indulge every now and then.

Study in Progress: The Impact of Cell Phones

Some researches have shown that cell phones had no impact on the health of a person, but experts said the study period is probably not long enough to detect certain diseases, like cancer. That is why, Cosmos research will be undertaken in a period of five years.

The researchers said the current best way to do it is to monitor the health of mobile phone users in certain period of time. "In this way we can get a real picture to determine whether there is a link between cell phones and disease," said Dr Mireille Toledano, researchers from Imperial College London.

Later the study was not limited to brain cancer, given the current people use mobile phones in a variety of ways, including to open the site, so the phone does not always have to be used near the head.

"We'll see a variety of health impacts that may arise, including various cancers, such as the skin cancer and diseases related to brain nerves. Disorders and complaints such as headache, tinnitus, depression, and sleep disorder also will be monitored," said Toledano.

Let's wait for the results. Does electromagnetic radiation that has been accused of a health hazard actually proven.
