8 Best Sex-Positions To Improve The Quality Of Sexual Life 2007-09-13 10:26:04
Sex shouldn’t resemble Naked Twister. Too much twisting and contorting can leave a woman feeling like a sexless member of Cirque du Soleil. “Unlike men, women can lose an orgasm almost in the midst of having one,” says Ian Kerner, Ph.D., author of She Comes First and He Comes Next. The solution? This simple series of positions, designed to help you flow naturally from move to move without ending up like a flesh pretzel.
1、Missionary
It’s tame, but it’s a natural starter because of strong eye contact, says Kerner. “But men often ejaculate faster because of the friction.” To last longer and keep her happy, switch to a move that maintains clitoral pressure without so much thrusting.
2、Spider
Sit back and pull her toward you while you both lift your knees. “Physically, it allows her to feel a deeper, more intense, more intimate stimulation than missionary, with less friction,” says Candida Royalle, author of How to Tell a Naked Read more:Improve

Contraceptive Pill May Reduce Cancer Risk 2007-09-13 05:18:53 A medical study shows taking the contraceptive pill does not increase a woman’s chance of developing cancer and could even reduce the risk of getting the killer disease by 12 percent, media reported Thursday.
Researchers in UK who studied the records of 46,000 women over a 36-year period found that taking the oral contraceptive for up to eight years did not lead to an increased risk of cancer over a woman’s lifetime.
Researchers found that there was no overall increased risk of cancer among pill users and that taking the pill could cut the risk by up to 12 percent in some cases.
“It is pretty small, but if you take that across 3 million women in Britain and 100 million women throughout the world actually a small risk translates into major benefits,”said Philip Hannaford of Aberdeen University in Britain.
“Many women, especially those who used the first generation of oral contraceptives many years ago, are likely to be reassured by our res Read more:Cancer

10 Symptoms Not To Ignore 2007-09-12 22:27:54 Don’t ignore these symptoms
Don’t ignore the following 10 signs and symptoms — some of which are not obviously alarming. But, trust that your body informs you of its needs. While some messages are more urgent than others, milder but persistent symptoms may also signal trouble.
1. Unexplained weight loss
If you find you’re losing excessive weight without intending to do so, see your doctor. Unintentional excessive weight loss is considered to be a loss of more than:
5 percent of your weight within one month
10 percent of your weight within six to 12 months
An unexplained drop in weight could be caused by a number of conditions, such as an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism), depression, liver disease, cancer or other noncancerous disorders, or disorders that interfere with how well your body absorbs nutrients (malabsorption disorders).
2. Persistent fever
If you have a normal immune system and you’re not undergoing treatment, such as chemotherapy for cancer, Read more:Ignore

Can Humans Live to 1,000? Some Experts Claim We Can 2007-09-12 07:00:13 Cambridge University geneticist Aubrey de Grey has famously stated, “The first person to live to be 1,000 years old is certainly alive today …whether they realize it or not, barring accidents and suicide, most people now 40 years or younger can expect to live for centuries.”
not everyone thinks ageing can or should be cured. Some say that humans weren’t meant to live forever, regardless of whether or not we actually can.
“I just don’t think [immortality] is possible,” says Sherwin Nuland, a professor of surgery at the Yale School of Medicine. “Aubrey and the others who talk of greatly extending lifespan are oversimplifying the science and just don’t understand the magnitude of the task. His plan will not succeed. Were it to do so, it would undermine what it means to be human.”
It’s interesting that Nuland first says he doesn’t think it will work but then adds that if it does, it will undermine humanity. So, which is it? Is it impossible, or are the skept Read more:Experts
10 Health Trends You Can’t Ignore 2007-09-12 00:34:22 Some health trends can prevent disease and increase fitness, while others signal new dangers and ineffective treatments. Either way, if you’re looking to stay on top of your health and fitness, these 10 trends shouldn’t be ignored.
Entertaining Gym Equipment
For years you’ve been able to watch TV while running on a treadmill. But the gym equipment of tomorrow, being developed by companies such as Expresso Fitness, appeals to a generation who grew up playing games. These interactive machines provide the feeling that you’re zooming through tunnels or chasing dragons. You can even earn rewards like a free personal training session.

If all human beings vanished, Cities would eventually revert to a forested island. Many skyscrapers would topple within decades, undermined by waterlogged foundations; stone buildings such as St. Patrick’s Cathedral (at right in artist’s rendering) would survive longer. Weeds and colonizing trees would take root in the cracked pavement, while raptors nested in the ruins and foxes roamed the streets…

Heart to heart 2007-09-09 07:58:47 A transplant patient had an emotional reunion with her heart when she came face to face with the organ that nearly killed her – in a museum.
Jennifer, from Ringwood, Hampshire, had the life-saving operation three months ago at Papworth Hospital, Cambridge.
According to the Mirror she said: “It was an emotional and surreal experience. It caused me so much pain and turmoil inside me. I was really curious to see it but at the same time I am trying to love the heart I have now.”
Jennifer, 23, was diagnosed with restrictive cardiomyopathy when she was a teenager. It made her breathless after a short walk and had started to affect her liver.
Jennifer’s old heart is displayed at the Wellcome Collection public venue in Central London.

The Top 10 Fatal Diseases 2007-09-28 00:33:54 We all like to think we’re going to die a peaceful death, maybe in our sleep, after a long, fruitful and healthy life.
But not everyone is that lucky.
Health statistics predict this year about 500,000 Americans will die of heart attacks, 164,000 of lung cancer and 60,000 due to colon cancer.
Heart Attacks
Around 500,000 Americans will die of heart attacks this year; half of these could be prevented, Corso says. People should be aware of risk factors ranging from high cholesterol to family history. He also recommends men over 40 and women over 50 consider a $200 Electron Beam Computed Tomography scan, which takes pictures of the heart between beats, to measure coronary plaque in the arteries.
Colon Cancer
This type of cancer claims 60,000 American lives each year. The problem? No one wants to get a colonoscopy. But the screening can spot polyps that could develop into cancer years in advance. Though more insurance plans are covering the test, without coverage it can cost up to $ Read more:Fatal
The 12 POP Gizmos and Gadgets In The Past 30 Years 2007-09-27 04:16:54 1976: JVC HR-3300
Price: $1,400
Weighing in at a chunky 30 pounds, JVC’s hulk of a videocassette recorder was one of the first to work with VHS tapes, and helped sink the rival Betamax format. Movie producers at first fought the spread of taped movies, fearing home viewing would cut into box office receipts. Their fears proved unfounded and opened a whole new market of home entertainment profits for Hollywood, paving the way for DVDs and movie and TV downloads.
1977: ATARI 2600
Price $200
The first game system with plug-in cartridges had gaming aficionados salivating over the immediate proliferation of video games. More than 40 manufacturers created over 200 games for the system, including the future classics Pac-Man and Asteroids. Amid its success, however, Atari neglected game developers and many defected to rival game companies. Eventually, Nintendo picked up where Atari left off.

Which is More Important to You — Sex or the Internet 2007-09-26 11:13:14 More and more Americans can go without sex longer than the internet, Study Finds.
A survey of about 1,000 Americans showed that the Internet
has become such an essential part of their every-day lives that 28% said they spend less time socializing with friends because of it. And 20% said they spend less time having sex because they’re too busy online, according to a study by advertising agency JWT.
Sex VS Internet
According to JWT, only 17% of the 1,011 online Americans who participated in the survey said they willingly had gone without connectivity for more than two weeks within the past year. When asked how long they would feel OK without online access, 15% of respondents said just a day or less, 21% said a couple of days and another 19% said a few days.
About half of people 35 and older said if they can’t access the Internet when they want to, they feel like something important is missing.

5 Senses In Our Sex Life 2007-09-26 03:53:43 The five Senses
of sex:
1. Taste
2. Touch
3. Hearing
4. Smell
5. Sight
All six play a powerful role in who we’re attracted to, good sex, bad sex, and finding our way to a better relationship. In times of stress and disconnection, the senses offer a direct route to happiness. They’re free, and there are no side effects. So why not turn back to what nature provided us?
Taste
We all know that matters of the mouth figure prominently in sex. A kiss is the first sexual act we share, and the mouth is an erogenous zone that’s on full display. Ever wonder why we eat when we court each other? Maybe because it’s a primeval activity, much like sex itself.
Food equals seduction when you share it with your partner. Foods that are colorful and sensual (like strawberries, papayas, and avocados) evoke the feminine mystique. Bananas, carrots, and celery evoke his. For the ultimate experience, feed each other, eat with your fingers, and relish the variety of textures and flavors.

8 Healthy Habits Aren’t So Healthy That You Don’t Know 2007-10-02 03:14:34
Using anti-bacterial soap
You may be tempted to take a biological jackhammer to every microbe that dare touch your family, but the fact is there’s a lot we don’t know about the long-term effects of common, household use of anti-bacterials. According to the Centers for Disease Control, these chemicals have been shown, in the lab, to kill off only weak bacteria—leaving the tougher ones to reproduce. That’s led many medical experts to worry that anti-bacterial soaps might be contributing to the rise of stronger bacteria, capable of fighting off our attempts to kill it. So far, this theory hasn’t been proved in a real-life setting. What has been proved, however, is that washing your hands with anti-bacterial soap isn’t anymore effective at preventing disease than hand washing with regular soap. First reported in a 2004 study, published in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, this discovery led a Food and Drug Administration Expert Advisory Council to announce the next yea
Stages of Fetal Development 2007-09-29 11:27:43 Month 1: Human development starts when a sperm fuses with an egg to create a zygote. A zygote is a single-cell that contains two copies of chromosomes—one copy from each parent. In the week following fertilization, the zygote undergoes rapid cell division and becomes a mass of cells known as a blastocyst. After more cell division, the blastocyst splits in half.
Month 2: This month, the embryo’s development shifts into high gear. Its tongue, teeth and eyelids start to form. Its limbs grow longer and stronger, and its palate is nearly complete. Also in this time period, the embryo’s gastrointestinal tract separates from its urogenital organs and its heart begins beating—twice as fast as yours, in fact.
Month 3: This is the month of the heartbeat. Using a special tool called a Doppler monitor, doctors can detect the tiny thump-thumps of a 10-week-old fetus.
Month 4: Get out the headphones and tune the radio dial to Mozart—this month, the fetus can hear its mother’s heartbea Read more:Stages

How To Use A Condom 2007-10-14 04:34:40 Condoms can protect you against sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Even if you are protected against pregnancy by birth control pills or another method, use a condom to prevent STDs.
Use a condom every time you have sexual intercourse, oral sex, or anal sex unless you know that you and your partners are STD-free.
Condoms are most effective when you follow these steps before using them:
* Buy latex condoms sold in the United States. These condoms meet strict safety standards and are unlikely to break or leak.
* Keep the condom in its package until you are ready to use it.
* Check the condom for its expiration date. Throw away condoms that have passed the expiration date.
* Avoid storing rubber (latex) condoms in any hot place (such as the glove compartment of a car). Heat can weaken the rubber and increase the chance that the condom will break.
Follow these steps to use a condom properly.
* Unwrap the condom carefully to avoid poking tiny holes in it with your fin Read more:Condom
The Truth And Consequences About Alcohol 2007-10-13 03:04:21 Drinking responsibly can be a fun part of your social life. But do you know the truth about alcohol risks, and what consequences they can bring?
1、Alcohol
is nearly as addictive as Cocaine.
An estimated 17 percent of cocaine users become addicted to it, and drinkers follow closely at 15 percent. Of the other drugs: marijuana, 9 percent; heroin, 25 percent; nicotine, 32 percent.
2、Drinking is not best way to enhance sexual experiences.
Going by the numbers, the drawbacks of combining alcohol with sex outweigh the benefits. Women with impaired judgment are more likely to engage in sexual behaviors they later regret, especially regarding whom they slept with or what they consented to. Worse yet, compromised judgment can put a woman in a dangerous sexual situation. For both men and women, the likelihood of unprotected sex also rises with alcohol use, increasing incidences of unwanted pregnancy and STDs, including, of course, HIVOn the upside, alcohol does relax social and sexual inhib Read more:Truth

A diet low in fat could reduce the risk of ovarian cancer 2007-10-10 06:54:59 A diet low in fat could reduce
the risk of ovarian cancer in healthy postmenopausal women, according to new study results released by U.S. National Heart, Lungand Blood Institute.
Researchers found that after four years, women who decreased the amount of dietary fat they consumed were 40 percent less likely to develop ovarian cancer than women who followed normal dietary patterns. Women who started with the highest fat intake and who reduced their fat intake the most during the study lowered their risk of ovarian cancer the most.
As expected, no effect was found during the first four years because preventive benefits on cancer often take many years to develop.
Ovarian cancer affects about 1 in 60 U.S. women in their lifetimes and has the highest mortality of all cancers of the female reproductive system.
The study was conducted in 40 clinical centers throughout the United States, following 48,835 healthy, postmenopausal women for an average of 8.1 years to test whether a low-fat diet
World’s Fattest Countries 2007-10-08 11:19:50 No matter how you tip the scales, People are getter wider every year. What’s worse is that many nations are following suit.
In a list of the countries with the greatest percentage of overweight people, Nauru tops a list of countries with the greatest percentage of overweight people, with an alarming 94.5% of its adult population (ages 15+) classified as such, based on the most recent estimates by the World
Health Organization (WHO).
The U.S. weighs in at No. 9, with 74.1% of those over 15 years old considered overweight. But given that its population is nearly 20,000 times that of Nauru, clearly the U.S.’s size belies it rank.
There are currently 1.6 billion overweight adults in the world, according to the World Health Organization. That number is projected to grow by 40% over the next 10 years. The following list reflects the percentage of overweight adults aged 15 and over.
