Magnetic Therapy for Lowering Blood Pressure

Posted under rejuvenation by admin on Monday 29 June 2009

The studies carried out by Dr Davis and his colleagues revealed that a maximum drop in blood cholesterol from 222 milligrams to 141 milligrams occurred as a result of magnetic application. A positive effect on reduction of the blood pressure to the extent of 20 to 30 millimeters of mercury was observed in another set of clinical trials when the magnet was applied for a few weeks. The author has obtained marvelous effects of magnetic treatment on the instant lowering of high blood pressure by applying a strong south pole magnet to the right hand of the patient. Thus, the regular application of magnets corrects the dreadful disease which has many frightening consequences including blindness.

The improved circulation of blood also leads to faster and more effective replacement of decayed tissues and quicker healing of wounds. It also ensures a greater number of sound and healthy blood. corpuscles in the blood stream. The clinical studies in various medical institutions have proved that the application promote~ health and imparts a better sense of well being by providing warmth and energy. Thus, persons undergoing magnetic treatment regularly report more stamina. for work, less fatigue and an inexplicable joy and zeal in life.

The regulation of the flow of blood in the blood vessels also ensures proper nutrition and oxygenation of different tissues in the body which in turn leads to harmonization and improved functioning of different tissues. The health-promoting faculty of the effects of magnets endows an organism with better resistance to disease and equips it for the higher purposes of living.

An obvious effect of magnets on, reduction of infection is evident from the results of studies aimed at certain characteristics of blood like white blood corpuscles and the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). It was observed after application of magnets to the body that there was a marked drop in the above characteristics. This suggests that some infectious diseases like typhoid and measles can be brought in the domain of the therapeutic range of magnets. This has also led the medical scientists to try magnets in various infections where the antibiotics have lost their efficacy either due to .the gross mismanagement of the case by the physician or development of slow resistance by the micro-organisms to the ‘wonder drugs’. Astounding results have been obtained throughout the world by using the north pole of the magnet, in arresting the infection and subsequent complications arising out of lack of aseptic conditions in hospital wards and operation theatres.

It has been confirmed by the pathologists that under the action of magnets, various types of wounds such as incised, punctured, crushed and infected heal quickly by reduction in the formation of the fibrous tissue. The process of production of sound cells and rejuvenation is hastened, leading to quick recovery in painful conditions like corns, chilblains and chaps. Similarly, under the influence of magnets, the fractured, bones join up speedily by hastened calcification.

A Guide to Classical Guitar Instruction Books

Posted under looking younger by admin on Monday 29 June 2009

There are lots of instructional books that show you how to play classical guitar. So which one should you use? That depends on your goals with the guitar and your style of learning. Here is a guide to some of the more popular instructional books.

If you are looking for a traditional instructional book you should consider the Carcassi Method. It has been the standard guidebook for generations of classical guitarists. If you want to go the traditional route this is a solid choice. It was written over a hundred years ago and although a bit dated it is still a fine choice. There is a second part to this method called twenty-five progressive studies that are extraordinary in that they give you a solid repertoire of professional pieces to learn.

For a more contemporary guide to playing you should consider the Christopher Parking Guitar Method. It is a modern method for learning classical guitar and it comes in two books. The first book focuses on learning how to play and the second book teaches you all about refining and improving your technique while developing your repertoire. This is an excellent set of books on classical guitar and Christopher Parkening is a world class guitarist who was a pupil of Andres Segovia.

If you are looking for an easy to understand and more relaxed way to learn classical guitar consider Mel Bay’s Complete Method for Classic Guitar. Mel Bay has been publishing easy to follow, and easy to understand guitar books for decades now. And this book follows this formula. It is clearly written and easy to understand. It assumes you know nothing about music or guitar and this book is very well suited for younger players.

If you want the benefits of being able to watch someone play and hear what the guitar sounds like you should consider the Basic Classical Guitar Method books 1 and 2 by Scott Tennant. The first book has a dvd so you can see how the guitar is played and the second book has a CD so you can hear what the exercises and pieces sound like.

As your skill with the classical guitar develops you are going to want to expand beyond the traditional instructional book and choose books in two different areas. They are technique books that improve your technique and repertoire books that give you pieces you can perform. One of the best technique books you can get is Pumping Nylon by Scott Tennant. This book is a practical approach to really improving your playing technique.

If you are looking for an inexpensive collection of music to play I highly recommend The Library of Guitar Classics by Jerry Willard. This enormous book covers classical guitar across centuries, genres, composers and difficulty levels. It has a great variety of works that will keep you learning new pieces for many years. I own this book and refer to it all the time.

If you are interested in getting a better look at the whole subject of music theory I recommend you take a look at a book called: Scales, Intervals, Keys, and Triads. This book is an in depth look at music theory and music composition. It is independent of any instrument and is just a self-taught course on the theory of music.

There are lots of great books that will teach you how to play classical guitar and you can almost not go wrong choosing a book that works with your goals will make the process move much faster and easier.

Keep That Natural Beauty Look Forever!

Posted under beauty products by admin on Monday 29 June 2009

Sophia Loren is a great example of an aging star who still would be considered as one the most beautiful women in the world. You too can keep that natural beauty look forever.

A lot has been written about natural beauty and most articles talk about natural beauty being related to drinking water, eating fresh fruits and vegetables, taking vitamins, exercising, and so on. It is commonly said that natural beauty look starts from within. While mature natural beauty is a complicated and detailed subject, an in depth review of the literature really boils it down to the following items.

1. Not drinking coffee, and certainly not to an excess, is a major contributor to long-lasting natural beauty. Drink tea instead, which actually promotes healthy collagen and a youthful look.

2. Using all-natural cosmetics and enhancers.

3. If you want to have natural beauty and have the look last forever, avoid, avoid, avoid direct sun on your skin. Always wear a hat or other skin covering to protect the skin’s collagen. Never leave the house without at least SPF 8-15 that protects from all of the sun’s harmful rays.

4. Not smoking may be the most significant thing you can do to enhance natural beauty. As we know, smoking has a number of other critical health issues as well.

5. Eat healthy and natural beauty will enhance mature natural beauty over your lifetime. We all know not to eat deep-fried greasy foods, an excess of meat, and foods high in sugar and poor carbohydrates. Recent studies indicate the two most significant factors leading to premature skin aging are cigarette smoking and drinking coffee. In order to keep that natural beauty look forever, avoiding the direct sunlight is an absolute must. Direct sunlight, in combination with smoking and coffee, are a guaranteed recipe for early age skin wrinkling, puffiness, and rough texture. To keep that natural beauty look forever, it is imperative, even while we are young, to carefully plan for our later years.

While we probably all should have started all of the above items sooner in our lives, we can improve our natural beauty immediately by embracing the five steps to mature natural beauty. All natural anti-aging skin care cream, lotions, acne treatments, sun block enhance the natural beauty tips and advice so readily given. While healthy skin does start within, anti-aging skin care products are the final touch.

Cheapest hair remover for men?

Posted under wrinkle remover by admin on Monday 29 June 2009

What is the cheapest and most natural way to remove hair between eye browses for men?
Also, men 30 years old or older: do you put creame under/around your eyes to avoid/hide wrinkles?
Women, do you like it when men put cream under/around their eyes to avoid/hide wrinkles or it does not really bother you?

THANKS.

Uni-brow in men can be fixed by a permanent method like electrolysis or laser, other wise plucking or shaving will work and are cheaper. I know a number of men that use eye creams to improve the condition of the skin around their eyes; either to remove or minimize wrinkles, remove or minimize dark circles or just to moisturize the area. No problem for them or their wives or girlfriends.

How do I get healthier looking skin?

Posted under healthy looking skin by admin on Monday 29 June 2009

How do I get a healthier looking skin? I am a 16 year old boy and I have a bit of acne which comes and goes around my forehead and between my eyebrows. It doesn't bother me a huge amount as I guess it will go when I get older but the rest of my skin is quite blotchy and shiny.
Also I have black lines under my eyes and sort of sunburnt looking cheeks. There is bumps also underneath my eyes.

Altogether my facial skin doesn't look the best. What kind of advice can you give to get clear, healthy looking skin?

Healthy skin is easy. Just follow these simple rules:

Things to do to help oily face, pimples, blackhead & the such….

1.) Don’t ever pick/pop them… If you must pop them wait till they have a head and use cotton balls. Popping causes the oil & bacteria to go to near by spots and cause more pimples
2.) Wash your face twice a day. Morning and before you get to bed.
3.) Do not over wash your face.
4.) Get a natural soap that contains Tea Tree EO. I get mine at:

http://www.itsyoursoap.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=57

Tea Tree EO kills all the nasty bacteria that causes pimples. A plus this soap doesn’t smell girly. Smells like peppermint and cools the skin.

5.) Also get an astringent. But use it only every other day because you do not want to send the oil producing pores into overdrive.

If you follow these things for a few weeks your skin will look great

Just remember this dry skin looks old and worn. You face needs a little oil to look youthful.

Also don’t waste your money on store bought products.. Products like Clean and clear and Proactive are not a one-size fits all solution despite what the marketing suggests & doesn’t work for all people. Plus it’s expensive. Don’t believe all the hype on them either. They are a commercially made line of detergents and chemicals. Since your skin is natural you need natural products.

Hi guys i have shortened this essay by 400 words but i need help removing another 300. Please help (10pts)?

Posted under removing deep lines by admin on Monday 29 June 2009

“Time goes by and contexts change but great texts continue to hold relevant messages for the responder.”
Evaluate the understanding you have gained from your critical study of text in different contexts. In your response you should discuss the construction, content and language of your text/s.

Although uniquely crafted for a specific time and place, with a particular purpose for the social and cultural context, it is certainly true that great speeches and their messages continue to resonate with responders throughout time. While personal interpretations of meaning and value may differ among audiences of different contexts, the universal concerns shared by society, that transcend both time and place, ensure that the messages remitted through great speeches are of timeless relevance. I believe this is evident in both Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream” and Emma Goldman’s “The political criminal of today must needs be the saint of a new age”, as their pertinent messages have been shaped in such a way, due to the effective use of rhetorical technique, that they can be simply translated to the audience, ensuring their speeches were memorable and resonate with a contemporary audience due to their universal themes of freedom and equality.

Delivered during the March on Washington for jobs and freedom in 1963, from the steps of the Lincoln memorial, King’s “I have dream” speech retains enduring power due to his focus on the universal concepts of equality, racial justice and freedom, which are issues still relevant to us today. Their relevance can be underscored, when we consider the conflict in Darfur, and the African-Arab government’s treatment of the black minority.

Through fiery rhetoric and an amalgamation of metaphors and similes King conveyed the need to put an end to racial segregation and recognise that all people are created equal. Speaking directly to the Negroes of Mississippi and Alabama, King begins with a historic allusion to the declaration of independence that “all men are created equal”. In this way, he reinforces to the audience that they were robbed of equality, as well as gives his message credibility, thus allowing him to establish rapport with his audience. By using an extended metaphor of cashing a cheque and defaulting on a loan, King ensures that his audience can relate to his message and in doing so, they can understand and respond. King writes "America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked insufficient funds ", a simple metaphor to comprehend, yet conveying a much deeper message of the civil rights issue. Through his juxtaposition of phrases, such as “quicksands of racial injustice” to the “solid ground of brotherhood”, King makes clear his message to his audience, warning them that the nation is sinking with no hope of recovery, but that justice and equality can pull the nation up. The repetition of the clause “Now is the time” adds to the rhetorical effectiveness of King’s speech, reinforcing the hope and faith he offers.

In line with events of the time, the message of freedom for all people is also conveyed in King’s speech, as it appropriately reflected the contexts, during a period when blacks were repressed to forced slavery. In a contemporary context the theme of freedom can be related to by an audience of today, particularly in the current political climate of the blockade of the Gaza strip by Israeli forces. By using hyperboles and contrasts, King makes his message of freedom more accessible for his audience and thus, more persuasive. When King bellows that “This sweltering heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice”, he hyperbolises the suffering of his people using words with negative connotations, such as “sweltering” and “heat”, which he juxtaposes to the serene metaphoric imagery of “an oasis of freedom and justice”. King’s repetition of key phrases such as “I have a dream” and “Let freedom ring”, further reinforces his message of freedom, and simultaneously through his use of inclusive pronouns, such as ‘I’ he involves the audience in the speech, as if each person is involved in fighting for the principles of equality; a technique which Goldman also skillfully applies. The emphatic way in which these lines are delivered creates a sense of urgency within the audience and moves them to progress further towards justice and liberty. His musical tone with repetition climaxing by crescendo intensifies his statement and inspires the emotions of the audience. His tone becomes louder and faster, thus more imperative to ‘let freedom ring’.

During its delivery King’s message of freedom, equality and racial justice was well-received by his audience of almost a quarter million, who adored King for standing up against the oppression that the blacks of America had endured for centuries. King’s skillful oration and simple rhetorical technique even inspired President Kennedy and his white cabinet, who initially despised King. Following King’s speech they passed the federal civil rights legislation. I believe given the more open minded nature of today’s audience, we are better able to value the speech for its messages. Nevertheless, King’s brilliant use of rhetoric and skillful construction ensures that his speech retains its enduring power, despite changing contexts. This is reflected in the fact that today there are federal laws against discrimination.

At the time of the Great War, a time where the nation was bound by patriotism, Goldman was on trial for her controversial anarchist views, which were seen as a threat to patriotism and the government. As a result of my study of Goldman’s speech I have gained knowledge that the contentious nature of her universal concepts of equality and freedom, give her speech timeless importance.

Similar to King, Goldman conveys her message of freedom, specifically the need for freedom of speech, as well as attempts to defend her anarchist position and persuade the jurors to agree with her views. Whilst contemporary audiences may be more accepting to Goldman’s message of free speech and anarchist views, the jurors/audience of her time would have viewed such ideas and messages as fanatical. To successfully persuade the jurors/audience Goldman used a list of rhetoric to make her message and defense convincing. Goldman used rhetorical questions, for instance “Shall free speech…be destroyed?”. This immediately involved her audience and made them reflect on the issue being raised. In this particular example, Goldman appealed to the audience’s patriotism, highlighting her belief in free speech and justice for all. By continually raising these questions Goldman’s audience is required to consider and challenge their own opinions, essential to Goldman if she is to persuade them with her messages. Goldman ironically uses biblical allusions in her speech even though she is of communist standing and therefore doesn’t recognise religion. Through the repeated use of “Verily resonates Jesus”, Goldman shows her ability to connect and identify with her mostly Christian audience, portraying her message of universal peace and liberty. Goldman’s use of rhetoric persuades her audience to accept her radical views by appealing to their sense of democracy and freedom for all. By invoking an emotional response, we can see that the execution of rhetorical technique is essential in creating a successful speech, as it is what gives the speech its enduring power, and thus timeless importance.

Like King, Goldman’s speech also carries a message of equality and racial justice. However, Goldman’s message analyses the way women are treated by power wielding men, more specifically in the legal and political system. With sexism still a rampant issue in today’s context, particularly when considering women still get paid 16 per cent less than men, Goldman’s message of equality and discrimination continues to retain enduring power. During her defence against claims of conspiracy Goldman defends her anarchist position and utilises sarcasm and truncated sentences to ridicule the jury when she repeatedly declares that she is facing “Gentlemen of the jury” and only gentlemen. The anaphora illustrates her contempt that there are no females present in the jury, that these men are supposed to be honest gentlemen, an oxymoron in her eyes, and so should treat her the same way they would treat others in the same position.

Historically, Goldman’s speech failed as she insisted on pushing conventions at a turbulent time, however that only strengthens its power today. In today’s context Goldman’s messages and themes of democracy and freedom of speech are still relevant, as they are still be questioned. Maybe even more so now, given that there is no longer a social threat of communism or anarchism. With a wider knowledge of political ideologies, a contemporary audience can respect the speech for its controversial nature & its brilliant use of oratory technique adding to its enduring power.

Through my study of the two speeches by Martin Luther King and Emma Goldman, I have learnt that the messages of worthy orations can be appreciated both during and after the time of delivery. This is due to their perfect execution of the art & intellect of rhetoric, as well as their inclusion of values specific to their time and universal for all time: Freedom, equality and racial justice.
JUST WRITE DOWN THE PARTS I CAN CUT PLZ! YOU GUYS ARE THE GREATEST

Okay, I used to LOVE writing essays in school as a nerdy teenager – but seriously: can't you write an essay which will win you a high mark and write it without a maximum word count!?

Well if you have to have a certain amount of words I would:

1. ReRead your essay and double check you don't repeat the same idea twice (or more!)

2. Look at each paragraph and reduce your infomation by finding unnecessary ideas or less interesting parts which is not required for the essay.

3. Rewrite the essay in parts so you can find out if you can reduce the word count even more. You think more about your work when you rewrite your project. I ALWAYS used to rewrite my homework and all the essays I got assigned AT LEAST twice. Sometimes but rarely three times. It helps you concentrate on it more.

Has anyone tried photo-rejuvenation/laser treatment for freckles?

Posted under rejuvenation by admin on Monday 29 June 2009

I'm thinking of trying it and I'm interested to know specifically from someone who has had it done, what it cost, what effects they experienced afterwards, and the final result. Thanks :-)

I only have one freckle, and nobody is putting a laser any where near it.

What is the most tactful way to tell someone that you're looking for someone younger?

Posted under looking younger by admin on Monday 29 June 2009

I'm looking for a roommate who is close to my age, late 20s. There is a lady who has emailed me, interested in meeting with me to see if she wants to live in my house. The problem is, shes over 50. So, how do I tell her in the best way that it wont work out between us without insulting her about her age?

You should put it in your ad. Specify what age range you're looking for. Save yourself the trouble.

With this lady, if it's really not going to work, you shouldn't tell her that, just give her another reason.
