Foods for a Good Mood

Do you have a cranky mood? The problem might be hiding in your snack drawer. What you eat can have a huge effect on how you feel - and we're not just talking about your rumble tummy. According as what I have read, quick-grabs like soda, candy and white breads cause spikes— and ultimately crashes in— blood sugar, leaving you feeling less than your best. "The goal is to maintain an even, steady keel". Foods like almonds, avocados, low-fat yogurt or dark green leafy veggies helping you find and keep your good food mood.

Believe it or Not

Do you believe in magic? Was it true or just an imagination?

I have an experience of watching this kind of stuff when I was young. It was a fiesta in our place that time and it was traditions that there are a lot of entertainments were going to be held. One of the entertainments was called Circus - an entertainment that you may be able to believe or not. They said that there are performers that can do unbelievable things. I’m curious about it. So, I ask my mother to brought me and watch that Circus thing. When we got over there, there are bunch of people watching and I’m almost can’t see the person who perform because I’m short. So, my mom grabs me and let me stand in the chair so that I can see well. My eyes gets wide when I saw skull body dancing, person eating blades and flames, cut head that can talk and lots of unbelievable things to mention. It’s really amazing. “How they can do that? That’s the big question in my head”.

By the way, talking about circus, there’s a new Cirque Du Soleil performance featuring CRISS ANGEL called 'CRISS ANGEL Believe' now appearing at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas. Be a witness, how are the skills of other illusionists, such as Harry Houdini, different from those of modern magical masters, such as CRISS ANGEL.

They have the current Text Message contest where you could win tickets. How to join? Text 'Believe' to 22122 to win 2 tickets to 'CRISS ANGEL Believe'. Text now!

Treat Yourself to a Time-Out

I got this information in the book and it’s nice to share with this to all people who might read my blog.

You know what happens. The minute you outlaw something from your diet is the minute you realize you can't live without it. And then the cravings begin those beastly little things. That's why we say ix-nay on the nixing. Instead of banning chocolate or (drool!) ice cream, give yourself a little taste. Better yet, set aside some time every single day to really get into your favorite treat. Put your feet up, close your eyes, and really eat the heck out of that (responsible, single-serving-sized) brownie. One small, daily calorie splurge just might save you from a desperate, diet-killing lunge for the cookie jar.

Grilled Tilapia

It’s time to hit the deck! Backyard parties are perfect for effortless healthy-eating. Not only is grilling a low fat cooking method (fat in the food item drips right off!), it's the season for delectable fresh fruit and vegetables. A few tips for keeping your cookout healthy:

1. remove the skin from chicken before cooking,
2. use low-sodium marinades and sugar-free sauces,
3. stick to healthier options of traditional side dishes.

Prepare healthy, eat healthy. Just like this recipe of mine, grilled tilapia. Instead of using chicken, I used tilapia for a change. Besides, I like fish also. Grilling is better than frying especially this summer time. Grilled tilapia is easy to make. You just need lemon juice and seafood seasoning to marinate the tilapia. You can put some onions and garlic underneath their bellies while you marinate it. Set aside the marinated tilapia for a couple minutes before you grill it. Cook it in a low heat. Using charcoal in grilling is best!

Police Gear

I was just surfing in the internet and accidentally browsed this police website called L.A. Police Gear, Inc. It was founded by Los Angeles area Police Officers. The business has grown and changed greatly over the years and now serves the general public, military personnel, security professionals, and of course police officers (or anyone else who would like to buy from them).

They proudly brand themselves on extremely fast shipping, low prices, and outstanding service. They are factory-authorized dealers for most of the brands you see on their web site. They take great joy in helping people get the gear they want and need. Their web site name might make people think that they only sell to cops, but that is not the case at all. They enjoy selling to everyone! They will continue to keep the name L.A. Police Gear, Inc. because it is what most of their customers know them by.

They have new product coming out and one of these was Luminox product. LA Police Gear, Inc is proud to announce that they are an authorized Luminox Watch dealer as of June, 2008. For more information please take a look around their site and don't hesitate to contact them if you have any questions or needs click here.

Breast Cancer Awareness

Got this tag from Michelle with a cause. Thanks a lot for passing this to me. It's a pleasure for me to help an organization like this even thru this blog of mine.

• The first sign of breast cancer usually shows up on a woman's mammogram before it can be felt or any other symptoms are present.

• Risks for breast cancer include a family history, atypical hyperplasia, delaying pregnancy until after age 30 or never becoming pregnant, early menstruation (before age 12), late menopause (after age 55), current use or use in the last ten years of oral contraceptives, and daily consumption of alcohol.

• Early detection of breast cancer, through monthly breast self-exam and particularly yearly mammography after age 40, offers the best chance for survival.

• Ninety-six percent of women who find and treat breast cancer early will be cancer-free after five years.

• Over eighty percent of breast lumps are not cancerous, but benign such as fibrocystic breast disease.

• You are never too young to develop breast cancer! Breast Self-Exam should begin by the age of twenty.Resources: American Cancer Society National Cancer Institute Komen FoundationYou can help the lives of many women by spreading the word aboutThe Breast Cancer Site pink button as many times as you can.

Eggs. They get a bad rap for being cholesterol bombs, But recent studies have shown that eating one or two eggs a day does not cause any measurable increase in cholesterol levels, and that eggs are great source of choline, which boosts brain health.

Refrigerate the pork, covered, for 2 to 4 hours. Meanwhile, soak the hickory chips in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate. Put the soaked hickory chips over the coals. Cook the pork chops on the grill for 10 to 15 minutes, or until desired doneness is achieved. For best results, cover the grill while cooking so that the meat is infused with the smoke flavor. This recipe makes 2 servings. Try it, its really delicious barbeque.
