Unintentional HeatingMany of the appliances you use on a daily basis add unwanted heat to your home. Your oven is possibly the biggest culprit. Try to avoid baking or broiling on hot days.

Keeping the Heat OutsideWe all love windows, don't we?  But they WILL cost you money in the summer months.  They let the heat in along with the sunshine, making it infinitely more difficult to keep the house cool.  You should keep the shades closed and keep the sunlight out to reduce cooling costs.  In fact the best way to shade your windows is from the outside, using awnings,

Air Conditioning (part II) Now on to some additional myth-busting.  It is another common fallacy that you can cool your home off faster by setting a lower temperature on the thermostat.  This somehow kicks the air conditioning system into "overdrive" where it cools faster - NOT TRUE.  Actually it does nothing to speed up the process and you take the risk of forgetting to adjust it

More than 215,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. For many of them, surgery to remove the tumor is just the first step in the battle against the disease, often followed by radiation and/or chemotherapy. After that, these women may need to decide with their doctor whether to have "adjuvant therapy"-medication to help prevent their cancer from coming back.When a woman's breast cancer does come back or spreads to other parts of the body, she may be at greater risk of dying from the disease. Women whose breast cancer is detected in the nearby lymph nodes at diagnosis and those who receive chemotherapy after surgery are considered to be at increased risk for breast cancer recurrence.Postmenopausal women whose early-stage breast cancer is hormone-sensitive have a new option as

Its nearly impossible to navigate all the conflicting information about which type of TV is better for the environment. Traditional tube televisions contain a vast array of toxic materials, the worst of which is lead. LCD & plasma TV's may also contain lead, but in far smaller quantities. Of course, LCD and plasma TV's burn about four times the amount of electricity that traditional tube TV's do.

Even though more and more Internet users switch to broadband every year, a large portion of the web's population is still running on good old dialup connections. It is therefore unwise to count them out of the equation when you're designing your website, and a very major consideration we have to make for dialup users is the loading time of your website.Generally, all the text on your website will be loaded in a very short time even on a dialup connection. The culprit of slow-loading sites is mainly large images on your website, and it is very important to strike a delicate balance between using just enough images to attract your users and not to bog down the overall loading time of your site.You should also go to a greater length and optimize every image on your site to make sure it loads

Reducing Your Need for DebtI've been preaching the need for entrepreneurs to practice fiscal prudence during these uncertain economic times. Keeping debt load to a minimum is one of the more important steps a business can take, due to the inevitability of rising interest rates if inflation continues to heat up. Also, banks will be coming under more pressure to clean up their loan portfolios -- this means that even if you have made all of your payments on time the bank may call your loan simply because your credit risk is too high to fit with tighter regulatory standards. Helen Anderson at her blog called Bankaholic also worries about entrepreneurs who take on too much debt: As an emerging entrepreneur, it is very easy to quickly accumulate debts that are substantial enough to kill

Lifestyle changes to reduce your overall stress levels are important. 1. No multi-tasking: Do not multi-task. Although you may think this is a time-efficient way to go about things, you will rapidly become overloaded. The more stimuli you impose upon yourself, the greater the activity of your stress glands. Keep your tasks or jobs simple; that means one at a time, and do them well. When you are finished move on to the next. 2. Learn to say 'No': People often have a problem saying 'no' end up saying 'yes to everything, taking on too much for fear of hurting or upsetting others. They end hurting themselves. Learn what your boundaries are, and how much you can handle. Once you reach that limit, do not take on any more. Others will understand, for they themselves are on overload, otherwise t

After 12 weeks those that used the cream lost 11 cm (4.3 in) from their waists, whereas those who did not use the cream lost 5 cm (2 in).

mongabay.com - February 25, 2008 Original URL Cutting global deforestation rates 10 percent could generate up to $13.5 billion in carbon credits under a reducing emissions from deforestation ("REDD") initiative approved at the U.N. climate talks in Bali this past December, estimate researchers writing in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B. But the researchers caution there are still substantial obstacles to overcome before carbon-credits-for-rainforest-conservation becomes a reality. Reviewing the potential for REDD, Johannes Ebeling and Mai Yasué warn that the climate change mitigation strategy will face numerous challenges, including overcoming difficulties with implementation and poor governance in tropical countries; ensuring permanence of emission reductions; address

Studies show that Americans are now saving less than ever before. Along with that, Americans are carrying a heavier debt load than ever. It’s easy for a home loan, a car loan and a few credit card bills to get out of hand, and many people are struggling with more debt than they can easily pay. To make matters worse, new bankruptcy legislation will make it harder than ever to file bankruptcy for those who simply cannot pay their bills.There are a number of solutions available that allow most people to reduce their interest rate on their debt, reduce their total monthly payment, or both: Ask for a lower rate on your credit card.

You have a copy of An Inconvenient Truth on your nightstand that you—at some point—intend on reading. You carry the plastic Nalgene water bottle to refill instead of buying bottled water. You may even have switched to energy-saving fluorescent bulbs, started buying local from farmer’s markets, and are an iTunes devotee (not because of the instant gratification, but to reduce plastic consumption). Whether you’re charging chartreuse or just green-curious, there’s no excuse to NOT think eco-consciously nowadays. Even with only 4% of plastic bottles actually making it to the recycling bin, there is more being done today to help the environment than hybrid cars and solar energy. And even if you’re not Al Gore, you can still go green for low green, travel being no exception. That includes you backpackers and families, regardless of whether it’s a day trip to Mount Rushmore or a month going around Southeast Asia. Here are some seedlings for environm

The FDA is considering allowing drug companies to provide doctors with studies of unapproved uses for drugs. This would undermine long-standing restrictions on marketing medicines for "off-label" purposes. Under the new rules, drug manufacturers could distribute unabridged peer-reviewed research as long as the articles were not written, edited or significantly influenced by the manufacturers themselves. The FDA's has consistently prohibited the marketing of drugs for unapproved purposes since 1938, although it is legal for doctors to prescribe drugs for off-label uses, and the practice is common for some drugs. Critics have argued that if the new rules are accepted, companies would be less likely to conduct definitive scientific studies and seek formal FDA approval for alternative uses of drugs, since they could promote and profit from off-label uses without these hurdles. Also, some drugs, such as Vioxx and Celebrex, have been featured in flawed journal articles that underreport da

Although you will cut down on your calories, you will not cut down on your protective foods.It may seem a contradiction in terms but it is a fact that many obese people are malnourished. Their eating habits have led them to calorie-rich, vitamin-poor foods.Vegetable oils have no vitamin values. Gravies have very little. Candies, sugar-sweetened drinks, and refined sugars have virtually no vitamin content.Optimum NutritionOptimum nutrition, instead of just adequate nutrition, can give you more energy, tougher resistance to infection, and increased mental alertne

Getting the correct car insurance without compromising on quality is important â€" if you do need to make a claim then you want to be able to rely on a reputable company, which will effectively deal with your stressful situation.Many new cars already have an anti-theft device, but if your car is older or not fitted with one then it makes sense to purchase a device now and make a year-on-year saving on your car insurance. Also, such devices are designed to deter thieves so you will ensure that your car is a less likely target for theft or vandalism. Either an alarm or immobiliser that functions automatically or starts by the touch of a button will do the job.To be even safer, try and make sure that your car is parked in a drive or a private car park. Better still, and if you can, lock it up in a garage. If your car is safely under lock and key at night you drastically reduce the chance of it being damaged and therefore increase your chance of getting cheaper car insurance. Cars that

Among the many symptoms people with Hepatitis C deal with on a daily basis, you might not realize the connection between the virus and oral health. However, researchers and doctors have discovered a link between severe liver disease and a condition called xerostomia. Dry mouth, or xerostomia, is when the mouth simply is not producing the amount of saliva necessary for normal, daily oral functioning, such as speaking, chewing and swallowing. While xerostomia may not be a painful condition, it certainly can cause a great deal of discomfort.You may be wondering, just how does this dry mouth condition affect people with liver disease? What is the connection? Dry mouth is a common side effect of certain medications, especially those used to treat depression. And, since many people who suffer from Hepatitis C experience bouts of depression, this condition is likely a result of the medications they are taking.Chronic dry mouth is not just an uncomfortable nuisance; it can also lead to further

Just a single colonoscopy could save your life, study suggestsGetting just one colonoscopy might save your life, researchers say.Using a model to predict reductions in death from colorectal cancer, epidemiologists and clinical researchers from Memorial Sloan-Kettering looked at the relative effect of getting just one screening colonoscopy which cleared pre-cancerous polyps from the colon versus surveillance follow-up colonoscopy.Ann G. Zauber, Ph.D., Sidney J. Winawer, M.D., MACG and colleagues presented their findings at the Annual Scientific Meeting of the American College of Gastroenterology.“The model demonstrated a dramatic reduction in expected colorectal cancer mortality with initial polypectomy with or without surveillance, and suggests that the initial polypectomy accounts for the major component of the mortality reduction,” explained Dr. Zauber.Link to complete story: http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2007/10/colonoscopy_benefit.html ~Sandy G.

By: Judy TuckerUp to 75% -- or more -- of business-to-business transactions today are governed by contracts. Think about it: leases, consulting arrangements, equipment rental, insurance policies -- even that agreement with the cleaning service. As they've multiplied, contracts have also become increasingly complex. And each creates rights and imposes obligations.Businesses can't live without contracts. But it's often questionable how well we're living with them. Negotiated agreements can be assets or liabilities, depending upon how well they're managed.THE RISKS OF POOR CONTRACT MANAGEMENTWhat's hidden in the fine print in your filing cabinets can threaten the health of your organization. The business, legal, and financial risks in failing to effectively manage contracts are substantial. The costs may be hidden, but they are real.Overlooking an automatic renewal date on an unfavorable contract can multiply your costs over a period of years.Consider the impact of a missed escalati

You know your finance staff is too heavy. You’ve benchmarked it against firms similar to yours and they come up leaner. It makes sense to trim your staff back. So do you just go ahead and make the cuts? Maybe you can’t do these cuts alone. You could be treating a symptom and still not getting to the disease. You might need to also see what is causing the bloat. Where does some of the extra staff seem to be spending their time? Consider some possibilities: · Accounts Receivable. This could be a signal of service, production or system issues. Are customers holding back on payments for a reason? Are change orders not getting communicated before the billing gets out, leading to large number of credit memos? · Accounts Payable. Are there cash flow issues that mean the company is behind payments, resulting in time spent handling vendor calls, juggling payments and other non-productive work? · System Issues. Poor systems can really hit home in finance and lead to a lot of extra work

Of the hundreds of people who have stayed with us over the course of this year, only two or three have paid using the Nationwide credit card which is crazy as they’re the only place that doesn’t charge to use your cards overseas. Perhaps more crazy though is that of the dozen or so couples who live in Spain and have used us as a pitstop on their way to/from the UK, only one used a Nationwide card as they’re spending quite a considerable chunk of their income on bank charges. Quite how much is staggering. For example, a friend who lives in Brussels let drop once that he just used his Halifax card in the same way that he had done when living in the UK ie he would lift £20 or £30 each time he needed some money and likewise when he was paying for the groceries or whatever. Most people read the bit in the credit/debit card charging information that says “currency exchange 2.75%” and figure that he wouldn’t have run up much of a bill. However, there is a
