| STRAWBERRIES | for everyone |
Strawberries are among the most versatile of fresh fruits. Unfortunately, they are quite perishable as well. So purchase fresh strawberries only a few days before they are to be eaten.
While one study suggests that high doses of supplemental vitamin C makes osteoarthritis, a type of degenerative arthritis that occurs with aging, worse in laboratory animals, another indicates that vitamin C-rich foods, such as strawberries, provide humans with protection

* Manganese - 20%
* Dietary fiber - 13%
* Iodine - 8%
* Potassium - 6%
* Folate - 5%
Strawberries are very good in potassium and magnesium content, both of which are very effective in lowering high blood pressure caused by sodium.
* Folate is known to protect from birth-defects. Vitamin-C effectively prevents from infections and cold. The phytonutrients also have anti inflammatory properties. Wait! I forgot to tell you about the best benefit. The strawberry preserve tastes just awesome.
Like many other berries, strawberries contain high amounts of antioxidants, in particular anthocyanins type 2 and ellagitannins. These pigments are responsible for strawberries' red color, as well as their powerful oxygen quenching capabilities.

2. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Dfrg\BootOptimizeFunction
3. Select Enable from the list on the right.
4. Right on it and select Modify.
5. Change the value to Y to enable and N to disable.

| 20 Top Ways to Speed up your PC | for everyone |
20 Top Ways to Speed up your PC
Follow these tips and you will definitely have a much faster and more reliable PC! The icon means the tip will probably work best under Win98.
1. Wallpapers: They slow your whole system down, so if you're willing to compromise, have a basic plain one instead!
2. Drivers: Update your hardware drivers as frequently as possible. New drivers tend to increase system speed especially in the case of graphics cards, their drivers are updated by the manufacturer very frequently!
3. Minimizing: If you want to use several programs at the same time then minimize those you are not using. This helps reduce the overload on RAM.
4. Boot Faster: The 'starting Windows 95/98' message on startup can delay your booting for a couple of seconds. To get rid of this message go to c:\ and find the file Msdos.sys. Remove the Read-Only option. Next, open it in Notepad or any other text editor. Finally, go to the text 'Options' within the file and make the following changes: Add BootDelay=0. To make your booting even faster, set add Logo=0 to remove the Windows logo at startup.
5. Restart only Windows: When restarting your PC, hold down Shift to only restart Windows rather than the whole system which will only take a fraction of the time.
6. Turn Off Animations: Go to Display Settings from the Control Panel and switch to the Effects Tab. Now turn off Show Windows Content While Dragging and Smooth Edges on Screen Fonts.
7. Faster Start-Menu Access: Go to the Start menu and select Run. Now type Regedit and hit Enter. The Registry Editor will appear on the screen. Now, open the folder HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop. You should see a MenuShowDelay value. If you don't then do the following: right click on a blank space in the right pane and select New\String. Change the name in the new value to MenuShowDelay. Now that we have the MenuShowDelay value, double click on it and enter 0 in the value data field. This sets the start menu delay to 0 milliseconds.
8. Resolutions: If you are willing to do anything for faster performance from your PC, then try lowering your display resolution. The lower it is, the faster your PC.
9. Turn off Active Desktop: Go to your Display Properties and switch to the Web tab. Uncheck View My Active Desktop As a Web Page. Since the Active Desktop option under Windows 98 uses a lot of system resources, this option can have a dramatic effect on the speed of the whole system.
10. Defragment Often: Windows 98's Defrag tool uses Application Acceleration from Intel which means that when you defragment your drive, data is physically arranged on the drive so that applications will load faster.
11. Take your PC to Bed: Using the Advanced Power Management feature under Windows 98 gives you the option to use the sleep command. That way, you can send your PC to sleep instead of shutting it down and then restarting it. It's as simple as pressing a button and then pressing the same button to wake it up. You can tell Windows after how many minutes/hours of inactivity to automatically sleep the machine in the Advanced Power Management section of the Control Panel.
12. Faster Internet Access: If you use the internet for reference and the sites you visit are rarely updated then try the following. In IE (the same can be done in Netscape) go to Tools, Internet Options. Next, click on Settings... in the Temporary Internet Files section. Finally, select Never for the first option and double the amount of storage space to use, click OK!
13. Benchmarking: Benchmarking can be very useful when run frequently. It can tell you how your PC's components are performing and then compare them to other machines like yours. For example, when you overclock your PC, you want to know how much more speed you have and whether it is stable. All this and more can be discovered using benchmarking. An excellent piece of software for doing this job is SiSoft Sandra which can be found in the Downloads File Archive!
14. Refresh the Taskbar without restarting: If you in some way change the taskbar, either in Regedit or elsewhere, you can refresh the task bar without restarting. Hold down Ctrl Alt Del, and double click on Explorer. Say Yes to close Explorer, but no to closing Windows. This will refresh the Taskbar and system tray.
15. Quick CD Eject: Instead of pushing the button on your drive, right-click your CD drive letter in My Computer and click on Eject. This will also remove any icons that have become associated with the CD drive.
16. Start Up Programs: Windows can be slowed down when programs run on start up. To eliminate this, check your Start up folder. You can access it from the start menu: Start, Programs, Start Up. Another way to eliminate programs from loading even before Windows actually starts is by doing the following: Click on Start, then Run. Type msconfig. It will take quite a long time for this program to load, but when you finally see it on your screen, explore the different tabs. They all have to do with how quickly your PC boots, so select what you want, and uncheck what you don't want!
17. Fonts: When Windows starts, it loads every single font in the Fonts folder. Therefore, the more fonts you have, the slower the booting process. To get rid of unwanted fonts, simply go to the Fonts folder under c:\windows and remove whatever you don't want. Fonts that have a red letter 'A' as their icon are system fonts, so don't delete them.
18. Stretching Wallpapers: Don't "stretch" your wallpaper in Windows 98 since it actually slows Windows down when you drag icons around on the desktop.
19. RAM Matters: If you have less than 32MB then you should seriously think of upgrading it to at least 64MB. Windows runs much more smoothly with 64MB or higher and tends to use less hard disk space for virtual memory.
20. Partitioning: A very nice little thing you can do to boost system performance. By partitioning your hard drive, splitting one physical drive into several logical ones, you can gain several advantages. 1. If you get a virus or you accidentally format a drive, not all will be lost. 2. By placing the swap file (Win386.swp) on a separate drive, The swap file will be less fragmented and thus, faster. 3. Place Windows on a separate drive and whenever you need to reinstall it, you rest assured that your data is safe on a separate drive. Partitioning can be done using a few programs such as FDisk which comes with DOS. However, FDisk formats everything on the hard disk before partitioning. Alternatively, you can use Partition Magic from Power Quest to partition your hard disk without losing your data.

How to Turn Quick Money Making Ideas into a Reality
Today is the day of increase. Right now is the time for you to turn your quick money making ideas into a reality. Did you know that we all have the ability to think and grow rich?
Thoughts can very well turn into actions, but on the other hand, some thoughts stay paralyzed in it's existence because of fear. Turning your ideas into a reality is in harmony with how you think and when you will act. So what's the difference between the rich and the poor.
Well, the rich simply took their thoughts and put them to use, where the poor person procrastinated and settled for less, thus not taking their thoughts serious enough to change their financial situation. Friend, I hope by reading this article that you are the type of person that takes action in creating the life you want to have.
So, are you ready to turn you Quick Money Making Ideas into a Reality?
If you want to manifest the word "quick" into existence when it comes to making money, you might want to consider redirecting your thoughts towards the internet audience. This makes it easier to do your research for whatever product or service you plan to sale. Research is golden if you are going to survive in a new found business venture, because if you enter a market where people aren't buying, you might as well pack up the bags.
The internet is the fastest easiest way to turn your quick money making ideas into a reality. The internet is open 24hrs per day, 7 days per week, and 365 days per year. All you will need is a little bit of marketing skills, a website, and a merchant account to collect money.
Learning a few marketing skills won't hurt a bit if you want to get off to a fast start. There are tons of resources on the internet that will show you free ways to market online. This article you are reading right now is just one of the many marketing skills you can learn to get the word out as quickly as possible.
When you go online, do a YouTube search for the 30-Day Challenge with Ed Dale, a highly seasoned internet marketing veteran who will teach you everything you need to know for marketing effectively online. He is one of the kings for turning quick money making ideas into a reality.
Always take action no matter what. The most successful business owners in the world are not successful because they are smarter. They made their minds up that they will execute no matter what the obstacles were. I would recommend you implement a 90-day plan of action. After you have learned some marketing skills, pick 3-5 of those skills and execute them everyday.
This will do two wonderful things for you. It will build your momentum and it will build your habit force, which means the more you do something, the more easier and simple it becomes. Sooner or later, you won't have to think about marketing your business it will come natural, and that is where you want to be.
I hope you have gained some great insight on How to Turn Your Ideas into a Reality. One of my favorite books that I recommend to your is called the Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Wattles. This little 100 year old book will give you the keys to putting your thoughts into concrete action, and why it is your right to gain more wealth and more life. You can go pick it up at any Barnes and Noble around the world.
As mentioned before, quick money making is attractive only in the mind until it becomes an action. Tangible attributes are more attractive than the thought itself. My friend, you can achieve anything you put your mind to if you want it bad enough.
Thinking and doing are two different beast in itself, but the prize comes when one decides to turn their desire into a strong want pushing them to manifest their desire into existence. Why would a person want to work a JOB when all mankind have the same ability to accumulate wealth beyond their imagination? The answer is within the mind.
| Difference between a Blog and website | for everyone |
Difference between a Blog and website
Think about a "normal Web site." It usually has a home page, with links to lots of sub-pages that have more detail. , with thousands of information pages all organized under a home page. A small business site follows the same format -- it might have a home page and five or 10 sub-pages. Most traditional Web sites follow this format. If the site is small, it is sort of like an online brochure. If it is large, it is like an electronic encyclopedia.
A blog is much simpler:
A blog is normally a single page of entries. There may be archives of older entries, but the "main page" of a blog is all anyone really cares about.
A blog is organized in reverse-chronological order, from most recent entry to least recent.
A blog is normally public -- the whole world can see it.
The entries in a blog usually come from a single author.
The entries in a blog are usually stream-of-consciousness. There is no particular order to them. For example, if I see a good link, I can throw it in my blog. The tools that most bloggers use make it incredibly easy to add entries to a blog any time they feel like it.
| Master Secrets To Becoming A Distinguished University Or College Student | for everyone |
Master Secrets To Becoming A Distinguished University Or College Student
In 1952, the same university discovered that only 3 out of 100 graduates had written down a clear list of their goals. In years later, their follow up study showed that 3 percent of the graduating class had accomplished more financially than the remaining 97 percent of the class. Those 3 percent were the same graduates who had written down their goals. When you write down your goal, statisticians say, you increase a chance of obtaining it by 90 percent.
Helen Keller who was born blind and deaf, said, "The greatest tragedy to befall a person is to have sight but lack vision". What is a vision? A vision is a preferred future. It is a clear mental picture of what could be. What is your vision? What do you see yourself doing in the future? As a university or college student, I urge you to dream big. Begin to elevate the picture of your future. You can't think of catching mice and expect to catch lions. Vision is of paramount importance. It translates into purpose. Your vision is your future. A person without a vision is a person without a future. A person without a future will always go back to his past. It is critical that you develop a clear and succinct vision for your life. Why do you exist? Your vision should be written down. When you write it down, it forces you to clarify it. Bear in mind that your vision will attract critics. Never hand it over to their hands. Visions often die at the hands of the critics. Critics are spectators not players. Critical people are often disappointed people. Remember, there has never been a monument built to a critic. Critics want you to come down to their level. They feel intimidated by your vision. Anyone unhappy over your success or progress is your enemy. Swiftly disconnect yourself before they poison you. In all their attempts to frustrate your progress, they will fail. They will not succeed.
A man or woman of vision is unstoppable. They understand that what is inside them is greater than everything else around them. I dare you to dream big! If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it. A dynamic life is always fired by a vision. A clearly defined vision is one of the master secrets to becoming a distinguished university or college student.
| Best Prevention of Indoor Allergies | for everyone |
Best Prevention of Indoor Allergies
The single best thing you can do to stop the reaction is to reduce your exposure to the allergens.
If it is animal dander causing your allergic reaction, you do have options.
* Keeping the animal outdoors all the time is a partial solution, but your home will still have greater amounts of dander than if the animal is removed altogether.
* You may want to see an allergist to confirm that your pet is the cause of the symptoms before making the painful decision to get rid of a pet.
* If you decide to remove the animal, it may take as long as 6 months or longer for the allergy symptoms to go away completely.
If you decide to keep the pet and live with your allergy, have as little direct contact with the pet as possible.
* Another family member should have responsibility for grooming, feeding, exercising, and cleaning up after the pet.
* Keeping the pet well groomed may help reduce the amount of dander in the household. Beware, though, of bathing the pet too often, which can damage the skin and worsen the dander problem. Consult with the pet’s veterinarian for tips on keeping the animal as dander-free as possible.
* Keep the pet out of the rooms where you spend most of your time, especially your bedroom.
* Minimize the impact of dander by living with as little carpet, upholstered furniture, and drapes as you can manage.
* Cover your mattresses, box springs, and pillows with covers that prevent release of allergens.
Before getting a pet, spend indoor and outdoor time with other animals of the same species to make sure all family members can tolerate the dander. Remember that allergies tend to run in families. If you are allergic to animal dander, your children may be too. Also, even people who do not have problems initially may develop them later.
It is practically impossible to remove all house dust with all its allergens from your home.
* Shampoo or replace carpets. Better yet, remove carpet. Smooth floors collect fewer allergenic particles.
* Clean or replace bedding.
* Clean or remove upholstered furniture.
* Clean floors, walls, and surfaces such as windowsills, window shades, countertops, cabinet and other doors.
* Launder or dry clean drapes, including those in storage.
* Launder all clothes, towels, and other household items, including those in storage
Consider seeing an allergist for allergy shots. Allergy shots can reduce your sensitivity to indoor allergens.
| Sing and Symptoms of Indoor Allergies | for everyone |
Sing and Symptoms of Indoor Allergies
Reactions to animal allergens may be very mild or quite severe. Symptoms may occur immediately after exposure to the allergen, or they may build gradually for 8-12 hours after exposure or become persistent.
The usual symptoms of indoor allergic reactions are those of many other allergic reactions include itchy, stuffy nose, clear nasal discharge, itchy, watery, swollen, bloodshot eyes, sneezing, scratchy, swollen throat, cough, wheezing, and tightness in the chest.
If the symptoms of the allergic reaction worsen or do not improve with removal of the allergen, call a physician. If you are having persistent nasal, eye, or chest symptoms, see your doctor. If your respiratory problems are severe (e.g., shortness of breath, difficulty breathing), go to the emergency department or seek care from your physician as soon as possible.
Generally, your physician will be able to identify the problem by examining you and asking questions. Treatment can begin without further evaluation or testing.
Tests and x-ray films are not required except under unusual circumstances. If you don’t respond well to treatment or if there is any doubt about what is causing the reaction, an allergy specialist (allergist) can use skin tests that may identify the allergen. Many people find this worthwhile before going through elaborate procedures to remove allergens from their home or making the painful decision to get rid of a pet.
An allergic sensitivity is a reaction of the immune system to a foreign “invader,” a substance that is not native to your body. Exposure to this invader, an allergen, triggers the reaction.
When the allergen particles come to rest in the linings of the eyes, nose, or airway of a susceptible person, an allergic reaction can occur. Most people with asthma or hay fever or other outdoor allergies think of their home as a haven where they can escape their allergies. Unfortunately, houses and apartment buildings harbor their own allergens (agents that cause allergy symptoms). The inside of your home actually traps allergens, making them impossible to avoid.
Unlike seasonal allergies such as hay fever, indoor allergies may last all year long. Indoor allergens may provoke or worsen asthma symptoms, depending on a person’s unique sensitivities. Sensitivity to indoor allergens is very common and occurs at every age. It is less common in children younger than 5 years. People most likely to experience allergic rhinitis are those in early school and early adult years.
The single best thing you can do to stop the reaction is to reduce your exposure to the allergens. If it is animal dander causing your allergic reaction, you do have options.
Keeping the animal outdoors all the time is a partial solution, but your home will still have greater amounts of dander than if the animal is removed altogether. You may want to see an allergist to confirm that your pet is the cause of the symptoms before making the painful decision to get rid of a pet. If you decide to remove the animal, it may take as long as 6 months or longer for the allergy symptoms to go away completely.
Before getting a pet, spend indoor and outdoor time with other animals of the same species to make sure all family members can tolerate the dander. Remember that allergies tend to run in families. If you are allergic to animal dander, your children may be too. Also, even people who do not have problems initially may develop them later. It is practically impossible to remove all house dust with all its allergens from your home.
| How to Increase Your Energy Levels Naturally | for everyone |
Everyday I hear the same complaints from the same people about how tired they are, how stressed they are etc. with no solution in sight! The key is to correct the situation versus standing idle and accepting it.
Forget about the energy drinks or pills. Learn to increase your energy naturally, and have a healthy steady supply to get you through each day. By adjusting your personal eating, sleeping and exercise habits, you can boost your energy the natural way and settle into a self-sustaining rhythm.
Essential Water – Keep your body hydrated throughout the day. The first sign of dehydration is fatigue. Your body can’t function at capacity without that good old H2O. A steady supply of water will naturally keep things flowing–including your energy.
Improve Sleeping Habits – Often a small adjustment of your sleeping habits can already do wonders for your energy levels.
- Lying in bed is not sleeping: Don’t go to bed if your not sleepy and end up lying in bed pondering and stressing. If you are drifting off at the computer, while reading, or watching TV, it’s time to get to bed. Your bedtime should and will vary from night to night. Let your body tell you when to sleep as opposed to the following the 8-hour rule.
- Rise and Shine: Put an alarm and get up at the same time everyday.
- Sleepy at Noon?: Try a powernap of 20 minutes in a quiet place.
Experiment and find out what your optimal sleep levels are.
Yoga, Exercising & Stretching – It sounds counter-intuitive, perhaps, but by expending energy on a regular basis, you will actually give yourself more of it in the end. The key is to set up a fairly regular schedule–about three times a week–and push to the point that you feel refreshed, not exhausted. Don’t overdo it. It may take a couple of weeks to get into the natural rhythm, so have patience and higher energy levels will follow.
Deep breathing exercise – Another great way to re-energize your body is with a quick deep breathing exercise. Sit on a chair with a straight back and breathe deeply while you focus on your breath going in – going out. At the same time use a powerful affirmation to invigorate your mind and body.
Eliminate Energy-Sappers From Your Diet – Have more alkaline-forming foods like fruits and vegetables. Avoid excess sugar and coffee as they lead to lower blood sugar levels–and less energy–after they give you an initial kick. Also one could pack some almonds and nuts for a quick and convenient protein snack.
| What goes around comes around. | for everyone |
His name was Fleming, and he was a poor Scottish farmer. One day, while trying to make a living for his family, he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby bog. He dropped his tools and ran to the bog.
There, mired to his waist in black muck, was a terrified boy, screaming and struggling to free himself. Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been a slow and terrifying death.
The next day, a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsman's sparse surroundings. An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved.
'I want to repay you,' said the nobleman. 'You saved my son's life.'
'No, I can't accept payment for what I did,' the Scottish farmer replied waving off the offer. At that moment, the farmer's own son came to the door of the family hovel.
'Is that your son?' the nobleman asked.
'Yes,' the farmer replied proudly.
'I'll make you a deal. Let me provide him with the level of education my own son will enjoy If the lad is anything like his father, he'll no doubt grow to be a man we both will be proud of.' And that he did.
Farmer Fleming's son attended the very best schools and in time, graduated from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in London, and went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of Penicillin.
Years afterward, the same nobleman's son who was saved from the boy was stricken with pneumonia.
What saved his life this time? Penicillin.
The name of the nobleman? Lord Randolph Churchill .. His son's name?
Sir Winston Churchill..

Growing Healthy Fingernails – Diet and Tips for Healthy Nails
Your nails can tell a lot about your health, so if they’re not strong and healthy looking, check out these tips.
* Nail health relies on sufficient supplies of protein, B vitamins, vitamin A, calcium, zinc, iodine, and iron. So make sure you’re eating a balanced diet that includes all of these.
* If you wear nail polish, use an acetone-free remover, since acetone can dry out your nails, causing them to crack, which can lead to an infection under your nails.
* Don’t bite, pick, or remove your cuticles or hangnails. Not only can this damage your nail bed (the skin underneath your nail), but this can also allow bacteria to enter your skin and cause an infection. Instead just push your cuticles back with a plastic cuticle tool.
* Take care of your nails. Regularly trim your nails (with a clipper, not your teeth), and smooth rough edges with an emery board. Clean under your nails and then moisturize them to prevent cracking or breakage.
* If you like to get manicures and pedicures, make sure you go to a reputable place that cleans their instruments between each customer.
Here are some of the guidelines for you to follow for improving the health of your nails:
* Eat a diet composed of 50% fruit and raw vegetables in order to supply necessary vitamins, minerals and enzymes.
* Eat foods rich in sulfur and silicon, such as broccoli, fish and onions. Include foods rich in biotin such as soy, brewer’s yeast and whole grains.
* Drink plenty of water and other liquids.
* You may supplement your diet with royal jelly, spirulina or kelp, which are rich in silica, zinc and B vitamins and help to strengthen your nails.
* Drink fresh carrot juice daily, this is high in calcium and phosphorus and is excellent for strengthening nails.
* Eat well and your whole body will be better, healthier, more beautiful!
| A Guide to Teeth Whitening | for everyone |
A Guide to Teeth Whitening
According to celebrity cosmetic dentist Dr. Jeff Golub-Evans, when it comes to teeth bleaching, peroxide is peroxide. “Whether it’s drugstore teeth-whitening strips or a professional bleaching gel, it’s the same ingredient, just in different concentrations,” the self-described “smile designer” explains, adding that strips can actually get your teeth almost as white as a pro treatment; it just takes longer. Seeing as how it’s allegedly almost summer and nothing goes better with sun-kissed skin than pearly whites, we asked the good doctor if he’d break down our options for a brighter bite—with price differentials—so that, just in case the rain does eventually clear up, we’ll be ready:

| How to Get Small Business Financing When the Bank Says No | for everyone |
How to Get Small Business Financing When the Bank Says No
There are two financing situations that businesses should especially be prepared for banks saying "no". One of these involves commercial real estate loans and the other working capital financing (including business lines of credit). While a small number of banks are still proving to be reliable sources for some business financing options, recent nationwide commercial lending reports clearly show a drastic reduction in commercial loans for commercial real estate financing and working capital loans.
Banks are routinely saying "no" to small businesses which are both profitable and long-term customers. Because this has become such a widespread commercial lending problem, it is now common to hear phrases such as "thinking outside the bank" and "business loans without banks" when talking about strategies small business owners might need to analyze.
For commercial borrowers to adequately evaluate how to get working capital and other business financing when their bank says "no", a prudent starting point is likely to be an extended discussion with a small business loans expert. Finding and selecting such an expert will not be a quick or easy task for business owners, but this step is likely to be critical to eventual success in formulating a strategy for obtaining new sources of commercial financing. One aspect that should not be overlooked in locating a viable expert to help is to ensure that the selected commercial finance expert is totally independent and not affiliated in any way whatsoever with the bank which has already said "no".
The process of replacing a bank is rarely an option which is openly pursued by a small business. However, an astute business owner will quickly realize that they have little recourse but to pursue such a path when their bank says "no" to routine requests for business financing. Even though this search for new commercial finance alternatives is undertaken under protest by most commercial borrowers, improvements to the overall financial health of a business will be achieved in a pleasantly surprising number of cases. Keep in mind that in many cities and communities, one or two banks frequently operate in a near monopoly environment. When small business owners have literally been forced to find new business finance options, they are often pleased to discover that they can not only replace existing bank financing satisfactorily but also improve their bottom line in the transition.
