Mat Board: Choosing Color

By Chad Barker Mat board is the material that is used to frame a picture inside of the picture frame. For example, you will lay your frame down on a table and insert the glass piece. Next will come the mat board which looks like a cut out. Then the picture and finally the backing are placed on the frame. Although most dont think twice about mat board, you should. It helps to create a professional looking picture that is elegant and well designed. If you have been using mat board, have you actually thought of using colored pieces? There is no unwritten rule anywhere that says that this board has to be boring and dull. In fact, it can be used as a tool to pull color from the photo that it is being used with. If you have a standard photo in the frame, for example, and it only has a bit of color to it, using a matching color on the mat board will help to make the photo jump out at you and really become an enjoyable piece of art. You can also use mat board as a designing field. By designing it with stamps, colorings, or other images, you can truly help your picture to stand out. There are many other ways that you can do this and each way allows you to take control over your beautiful photo. You can purchase this product at most craft stores or right online. If you dont have any in your home in the frames that you have, purchase a large batch of them and start adding them in. You will quickly see the difference in each frame that they are placed in. Whats more is that you will be able to play off the colors offered in the photos to really create a unique look. For more observations about picture frames from Chad, click the link.

Atkins Diet Ongoing Weight Loss (OWL) Carbohydrate Ladder

By Elleth Faewen The Atkins low-carb diet consists of four phases: Induction, Ongoing Weight Loss, Pre-Maintenance, and Maintenance. This article focuses on phase II of the Atkins diet, ongoing weight loss, or OWL. The OWL phase of the Atkins diet begins immediately after the two-week induction phase. This is the fun part of the diet where you get to experiment with new foods and determine how they affect you. As you move from one rung to the next, you add carbohydrate foods back into your diet in the order prescribed by the OWL carbohydrate ladder. Adhering to this order tends to minimize blood-sugar surges that could reactivate food cravings. While fat and protein will continue to be the mainstays of your diet, you will eat less of them as you add carbohydrates. As you choose foods from each rung on the ladder, you should choose most often from foods with a low Atkins Glycemic Ranking, or AGR. The concept of AGR was followed in the 2002 edition of [i]Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution[/i], but it was formally introduced in [i]Atkins for Life[/i]. Foods with a low AGR will have the least impact on your blood sugar for each rung of the OWL ladder. The foods listed in each rung of the ladder below are examples of low AGR foods for their rung. As you hit each Atkins OWL rung, you can add up to 5 net carbohydrates from that rung. For each food group you add, you should eat from it no more than three times the first week and monitor your body for changes, using foods from induction and lower rungs to increase your carbohydrates on the off days. You need to give it the entire week as a couple of days may not be enough to know how a food is affecting you. You can eat daily from same food group the second week as you continue to monitor your progress. I personally recommend spending a minimum of two weeks on each rung of the ladder, and preferably a month. This allows you time to adjust your diet and learn how different foods affect you. For example, one brand of cheese may cause you problems while another brand is just fine. You should only skip a rung if you do not plan on eating from it. For example, someone may have dairy allergies, so they may skip the Atkins OWL dairy rung #2. If you do skip a rung, I have found that it is best if you spend the time you normally would have spent for that rung before moving to the next one. This helps to give your body enough time to adjust before giving it the higher AGR foods. For example, if you normally spend three weeks on each rung, and you want to skip alcohol rung#5, then you should spend six weeks at berries rung #4 before proceeding to legumes rung #6. In the same example, if you normally spend two weeks on each rung, then you would spend four weeks at the berries rung #4 before proceeding to the legumes rung #6. Your ability to add all the food groups back depends upon your Atkins Carbohydrate Equilibrium, or ACE. The term ACE was introduced in Atkins for Life, and it replaces the old term CCLL, which meant Critical Carbohydrate Level for Losing. For example, someone that does not exercise and has a low ACE would probably not be able to add legumes back during OWL, while someone who is young, works out regularly, and has a high ACE might have no problems climbing to the top. Once you begin consuming alcohol on rung #5, be sure to count the carbohydrates and monitor your weight loss. Spirits have no carbohydrates, while white wine and red wine have 0.9 and 2.0 carbohydrates respectively. Alcohol will suspend weight loss as you do not burn fat while your body has alcohol to burn. If you find that you are stalled, discontinue your alcohol consumption. When you get to the last three rungs of the ladder, you are eating foods with the highest AGR. Make sure you do not eat those foods alone. Eat them with foods high in fat and fiber to help minimize their impact on your blood sugar. With fruits and vegetables, the more color they have, the more nutrition they have. If you have a choice between red grapes and white grapes, choose red. Also, be careful of dried fruit as it concentrates the natural sugar and could potentially make a small piece have as many carbohydrates as the entire fruit. When looking at low carbohydrate pre-packaged foods, check the ingredients against the ladder below. The highest rung for the ingredients is the rung you must be on to eat it. The OWL Carbohydrate Ladder The foods listed in each rung of the ladder below are examples of low AGR foods for their rung, unless noted to eat in moderation. This is intended to be an example of some of the foods you can eat, not an exhaustive list of all the foods you can eat. Vegetables More salad and other vegetables on the acceptable foods list Dairy Fresh cheeses: Cottage cheese Farmer’s cheese Ricotta cheese Pot cheese Keep portions small for Hard aged cheese Cream, heavy and light Half and half Sour cream Low-carb ice cream, yogurt, and milk Seeds and Nuts Macadamias Almonds Peanuts/Natural Peanut Butter Coconut Sunflower seeds Sesame seeds Walnuts Pistachios Berries Eat frequently from: Strawberries Blueberries Blackberries Raspberries Eat moderately from higher AGR melons: Watermelon Honeydew Cantaloupe Wine and other spirits low in carbs Spirits White Wine Red Wine Low-carbohydrate Beer Legumes Lentils Kidney Beans Pinto Beans Black Beans Hummus Chickpeas Tofu Soybeans Soy milk, unsweetened Fruits other than Berries and Melons Plums Kiwis Peaches Apples Grapefruit Tangerines Starchy Vegetables Keep all portions small Carrots Green Peas Acorn squash Butternut squash Eat rarely: Corn Potatoes Sweet potatoes Whole Grains Keep all portions small and focus on whole, unprocessed grains: Old fashioned Oatmeal (Steel cut oats Oat Bran Wheat Bran Low-carb (soy) bread and muffins All-bran Barley, cooked Elleth Faewen began the Atkins diet in October of 2003 and provides support for those interested in low-carb dieting at http://www.lowcarbbulletinboard.com She also provides support for women at http://www.babytalkzone.com, an Internet company dedicated to helping women who are trying to conceive, pregnant, or adopting.

Five Easy Ways to Avoid the Flu This Winter

By Steven Sonmore Many people wonder how they can stay well this winter, considering the onset of the flu season and the fear of a possible influenza epidemic. Fortunately, acupuncture and Oriental medicine provide proven steps toward preventing illness and maintaining good health in cold weather. We hear about so many people catching the flu - but in reality it is only a portion of those exposed to a virus that get sick. Why? According to Oriental medicine’s teachings, our bodies get sick when we are in a weakened state. It is only when our immune systems are weakened and our bodies are out of balance that we are vulnerable to sickness. Acupuncture originated in China between 3,000 and 5,000 years ago. It corrects imbalances in the body’s energy systems that cause illness. Practitioners of Oriental medicine identify Qi (pronounced “chee”) as the life giving energy that needs to flow freely through the body for good health. Integrated with a wise lifestyle, Oriental medicine can help prevent illness. Here are Five Tips for Avoiding Illness This Flu Season: 1. Exercise a little bit everyday. Exercise moves the lymphatic system, thereby helping to detoxify the poisons in your body. 2. Keep warm. Make sure your neck and chest are protected from wind, drafts and cold. Use a scarf around your neck when going outside and wear turtle neck shirts or sweaters. The neck is an area where wind can invade the body and cause sickness. The Oriental medical perspective is that wind invasions make people more vulnerable to developing colds and flu. Always keep your feet warm and dry. 3. Get adequate sleep and relaxation. Your body is vulnerable to stress without enough rest. Think about doing some deep breathing exercises to help relax and unwind at the end of the day. Use stress-reduction methods like Qi Gong meditation or yoga. 4. Eat smart. Avoid refined sugars (processed food and baked goods, alcohol, etc.). A diet of refined or simple carbohydrates (white sugar, white bread) raises the body’s Ph and allows bacteria, mold, yeast and fungi to thrive. Simple carbohydrates suck up the nutrition your body needs to detoxify, nourish and build new cells and antibodies. This makes you MORE susceptible to illness. Vitalize your nutrition by eating more fresh, organic foods and less processed food. This food has more “Qi” in it. 5. Get Acupuncture. When you get regular acupuncture treatments (as little as once per month) it actually boosts your immune system. Acupuncture strengthen the “Wei Qi” or the protective energy that safeguards us against colds and flu. Use these Five Tips for Avoiding Illness to keep your body strong and healthy this winter. You can resist illness, the flu or the common cold. For more than 19 years Steven Sonmore helped people transform their health problems into solutions for attaining better health.

Get Yours Too - Free Items Given Away Daily Worldwide

By Dale Adams There is a select group of Americans across our nation who have taken recycling a step further. Communities are using local bulletin boards on their computer to post offer ads to get rid of unwanted items. This wonderful idea started by ordinary citizens is creating many benefits for our nation. We live in a society of change where we are constantly getting rid of the old for something new. Some of us discard slightly used items at the local goodwill but most of us find it much more convenient to throw them away. This constant waste of our natural resources leads to bulging landfills, pollution, more demand thus higher product costs, and other negative aspects. A group of people in Tucson, Arizona started an organization called, The Freecycle Network. It began in 2003 and has grown to over 2 million members across the globe. You can start this program in your community by joining at http//freecycle.org/. A local search for recycling may reveal other similar programs. This action taken by Americans will have an impact on our nation in many different areas. It offers a way to help the less fortunate so it may reduce crime while creating good will. Elderly people on a fixed income who want something heavy removed from their yard for free will find this beneficial. In addition to reducing items sent to our landfills it will conserve our natural resources. It will also help reduce our national trade deficit and dependence of oil from other nations. They have one rule that all members fully appreciate. It has to be free. You simply post a want or offer for an item and others reply. This is ideal for unwanted items in your garage that you will never use, but realize are too valuable to throw away. If you are a college student and need an item for class such as a camera but dont want to spend over $100.00 for one, you may find an individual who wants to dispose of one. If you have a wheel chair taking up space in your garage and no use for it, you could offer it to a person who may be in desperate need of one. Before you give or throw something away remember the following wise words. Do you know what the definition of trash is? Something you threw away yesterday that you need today. An old junk dealer in Arkansas taught my father that when he was a young boy during WWII. A saying that I find rings true still today. Since I joined the group I have found it very beneficial to my friends and I. You can meet new people in your community who want to help our nation. If you own an internet business, by offering unwanted items you can get local traffic to your website. It is a great program that you will enjoy as well as benefit from.

Selecting The Right Garden Fountain To Transform Your Outdoor Living

By Gordon Kaye Spring is here! For many people, that means it is time to get their gardens ready for growing season. Time to plant seeds, bury bulbs and sit back to watch their handiwork sprout. But gardens are not just plants and greenery. For some, they are places to relax and enjoy the outdoors. And as such, garden furniture and dcor have become common fixtures in many yards. Another feature growing in popularity is the garden fountain. Its appearance adds style and ambiance to any space, while its gentle sounds are relaxing and serene. Before purchasing an outdoor water fountain, there are a few things to consider. Fountains come in all shapes and sizes. They come in portable tabletop models, as well as large stone models meant to be showcased on the ground. Some fountains are strictly for outdoor use, while some are for indoors, and still others can be used both inside and outside. You will find fountains to complement any taste, from classic and traditional to contemporary and sleek. Once you decide which style you like, think about where it will be on display. Do you have a large, free-flowing space, or a small, compact space? A larger space can better accommodate a sizable outdoor water fountain (or two!). And more spectacular fountain features such as multi-level waterfalls or large stone architecture that would dominate a small space are right at home in a bigger area. A less prominent fountain would better balance a more intimate space. Do your tastes tend toward the conventional or the contemporary? You can find fountains in reproductions of ancient European water features or in the most modern lines. Many are constructed of lightweight materials with the look of stone. No matter what kind of fountain you decide on, know that it will provide a sense of tranquility to your space and bring beauty to your garden for years to come!

Personal Injury Settlement Amounts

By Peter Emerson Personal injury settlement amounts give an opportunity for victims to recover from financial crisis and secure apt treatment. Personal injury settlement outside the court is a good choice for insurance companies and the injured one as these settlements are less expensive and limit further distress of time consumption. The settlement amount depends on the severity of the injury, sum of lost wages, expenses in treatment and time taken to heal the injury. Personal injuries have no minimum or maximum settlement amount. The insurance amount is evaluated by an insurance company adjuster and the attorney for a particular case. They try to negotiate, based on severity of the injury, treatment cost, and expense of surgery in future. Personal injury settlement amounts are also related with the capability of the victim to work, affected lifestyle, personal discomfort and distorted appearance caused due to injuries. Loss of wages from the date of injury is also compensated while settling personal injury claims. Maximum amount can be recovered if one can capitalize different issues behind personal injury in a convincing manner. The assistance of attorneys experienced in handling personal injury settlement is useful in securing maximum compensation amount at the earliest. The fault or negligence of the plaintiff is also considered in determining the amount of compensation. Young and healthy claimants receive better compensation. Financial loss and mental distress caused due to injury are considered as they are productive youngsters, if not hit down by personal injury. The occupation and the educational standards of the petitioner are also taken into account when allocating compensation. To collect the settlement amount, the insurance company is informed regarding the settlement judgment if the person against whom you have claimed has insurance. The insurance company will then allocate the amount up to the limit of the policy. The verdict is enforced if the person does not possess an insurance policy. Parents do not have the power to access their child’s settlement amount. Normally, the settlement amount is deposited in a blocked bank account until the child becomes eighteen. But in some cases, if the child requires immediate medical aid or other emergency assistance, the court gives a special order to withdraw money from blocked accounts. Personal Injury Settlements provides detailed information on Auto Accident Personal Injury Settlements, Average Personal Injury Settlements, Personal Injury Insurance Settlements, Personal Injury Settlement Amounts and more.

New Sources of Hyaluronic Acid Provide Hope for Increased Availability

By Jana Willinger Recent research into the purification of Hyaluronic acid (HA) from the vitreous humor of fish has shown great promise. This method is highly efficient and easier than derivation from rooster combs and other traditional sources of HA. Specifically, scientists have pinpointed a way to derive highly pure Hyaluronic acid from the vitreous humor of fish. This method has the potential to be extremely important for the commercial Hyaluronic acid market as it provides an easy, safe and economical way to synthesize high amounts of Hyaluronic acid. If patent approved, the process could make Hyaluronic acid products even more readily available and could help scientists in the search for uses of Hyaluronic acid other than Hyaluronic acid injections, supplements, beauty products, liquids and serums. The specific protocol to obtain pure HA from vitreous humor of fish consists of the following: 1: Using platinum electrodes for protein electrodeposition. 2. Diafiltration, which reduces ethanol consumption 3: Redissolution of the pellet 4: Alkaline treatment of concentrated extracts There are many competitive advantages to this new process of creating hyaluronic acid. The two most compelling advantages are that the process results in higher quality HA, and requires less alcohol use which makes the process easier and more economical. Hyaluronic Acid Resources is dedicated to promoting an understanding of Hyaluronic acid, a major ingredient in many medical and anti-aging therapies and to highlighting places where you can safely purchase Hyaluronic acid products.

Creating (And Profiting From!) Your Online Community

By Darren Barkett In todays business world, most of us understand the importance of creating an engaging website. We understand the importance of location for our brick-and-mortar businesses. We realize that our businesses are only as effective as our employees. And we work hard to value our customers. What most of us dont understand is that our customers do more than simply consume our products or utilize our services. With todays systems of interconnected communications through cellular phones and computers linked through the internet, our customers actually make up a community. Our customers are out there, talking about our products, sharing their experiences with our services. Today, more than ever, they have the power to make our companies great or to burn them down to the ground. Executives who overlook the importance of these online communities are, at best, not taking advantage of an amazing marketing tool, and at worst are setting themselves up for disaster. We have all had experiences with different businesses, both good and bad. How did you react to a negative business experience? If you are like much of the consuming public, you told some of your friends about that business, warning them away from it. When you had a markedly positive experience, you probably felt like you wanted to share the good word about that business. More and more people are turning to the internet to spread the word- and theyre probably spreading the word about you- in forums, in chat rooms, on their blogs and personal web pages. What are you doing to make sure that what they are saying about your business is positive? You must cultivate your online community. This, thankfully, is a simple process. First, create an online form on your website so that people can contact your company with questions they have. These forms are easily available through a variety of on-line services like bravenet.com or mailchimp.com. Second, when people contact you through your website, reply immediately. This can be done with an auto-responder or simply by having one person at your business that is responsible for replying to all these comments. Theres nothing worse for harming customer relations than having a customer reach out to a business and then having that business not respond. Third, add each of these contacts to your email database. This usually requires the use of a third-party system that generates a opt-in email where the recipient has to verify that they want to be added to your email list. From there you can send them regular newsletters informing them of important developments in your business. This list becomes the cornerstone of your business community and will be a gold mine of profits and helpful information!

Lutheran or Catholic Church; Choosing the Religion that is Best for You?

By Lance Winslow Many cities have large Catholic Church presence and well-established Lutheran Churches too. In choosing which church would be best for you, you will have to do some research. There are many differences between the two-churches and their theories and interpretation of literary works. The structures of their hierarchy in their churches is also quite dissimilar. Many of the churches of both established religions have Sunday type school and grade schools. This is not available in all cities but in many it is. For lifetime indoctrination into their realm it pays for them to have such schools. Some of the differences you may not have looked into is the well-known sexual abuse and molestation which permeates both churches. Predominantly the Catholic Church as the media has re-enlightened the public to. Although every one knows or should have known that this has been going on for thousands of years. Molesting children is practically a tradition in the Catholic Church, one of many reasons very noble men came to this country on the Mayflower to avoid such hypocrisy. The Lutheran Church is not known for molestation and we have only heard of a few cases of such over the years. The Lutheran Church is know now for the BTK Murderer, Denis Rader, who was arrested and admitted killing all those women. It appears that your child will have the possibility of becoming a BTK type if he or she is indoctrinated properly and then chooses to follow in his footsteps. Everyone is pretty sure that the BTK Killer will not be able to get off on a technicality of mental insanity. He is perfectly sane and has confessed to all 10 killings he has been charged with, and talked with detectives for hours after his arrest. Rader was president of the Lutheran church council and used the church computer to communicate with. So when choosing a Church you will need to take into consideration whether you are worried that your child will be sexually molested or if you will need to worry about your daughters life. Or perhaps your child may find the BTK his new role model. I can see that you will have to think on this before deciding which established religion to follow. Good luck and may the force be with you? “Lance Winslow” - Online Think Tank forum board.

Speeding Tickets (NY): Don’t Ignore Them

By Warren Redlich A lot of people who get speeding tickets ignore them or forget about them. This is not a good idea. In New York, a traffic court will send a notice to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) if you don’t “appear” for the ticket. You can appear by mailing in a plea (guilty or not guilty), by going to Court, or by hiring a lawyer to appear for you. Usually the Court will not send the notice to DMV until at least 60 days after the date your ticket says you’re supposed to appear. This will also occur if you appear but then don’t show up for a scheduled court date. Once DMV gets that notice from the Court, they will mail a suspension notice to the address they have for you. The notice gives you another 30 days to appear before you’re suspended. If you have moved and have not notified DMV of your change in address, you will probably not get the notice. But they will suspend you anyway. If you’ve been suspended, there is a $35 fee for terminating the suspension. This is known as a “Suspension Termination Fee” or “Scofflaw Termination Fee.” The fee is paid to the Court and you still have to appear in Court (or have an attorney appear for you) in order to get the suspension lifted. The Court will then give you a “Notice of Appearance” (sometimes called a “lift”) which you would carry with you in case you get pulled over. While your license is suspended, it is a crime for you to drive in New York. If you are pulled over, you will be charged with Aggravated Unlicensed Operation (AUO) in the 3rd degree, a misdemeanor. This is a big deal, and you can expect to pay through the nose to get this resolved. Our office charges $1000 or more to handle an AUO. If your license gets revoked (usually for other reasons), having an AUO or some of the common reductions from AUO on your record can mean that DMV will not reinstate your license for up to 3 years. Residents of other states will face different consequences. Each state is different. We often get calls from residents of other states who can’t renew their license because of unresolved tickets in New York State. This can get very expensive and can also take a lot of time. Recently we charged an out-of-state driver $2000 (plus suspension termination fees) to clear up suspensions in three different courts. He had to go several weeks without being able to drive. While we work quickly in such cases, the Courts do not always respond quickly. New York residents can also get suspended for ignoring tickets in other states, and may face an AUO charge if they continue to drive while suspended. Speeding Ticket Lawyer Warren Redlich handles traffic, DWI and criminal matters, as well as personal injury cases, across New York State. He is developing a traffic court directory to assist people in finding out more information about the courts where their traffic matters are pending, including contact information and maps.
