When to drink water

WHEN TO DRINK MORE WATER?

We all know that water is important but I never know about the special times to drink it.

Do you? Here are some tips on drinking water a friend of mine mailed to me....

Drinking water at the correct time maximizes its effectiveness on the Human body:

2 glasses of water after waking up - helps activate internal organs
1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal (not after) - helps digestion
1 glass of water before taking a bath - helps lower blood pressure
1 glass of water before going to bed - avoids stroke or heart attack

Sticking toothpick in your nose

You know the kind of stories you can over hear when u take lift after lunch...short...interesting and mostly gossips...

Yesterday, after lunch, I overheard one of the scariest incident that happened to a man's dad...

"you know..." the guy started, "some people use cotton bud stick to dig ear...my dad...due to the fact that he has synese, place two cotton bud sticks up his nose with medicine everyday..."

Hearing this I am like omg...this is bad...he continued and said, "one day, he ran out of these cotton bud sticks and made do by using two tooth picks and stuffed some cotton at the tip and stick it up his nose"

What!! How can he do that? Then the guy said..."when he woke up he could not find the two sticks any where around him, so my dad assume that one of us had thrown it away for him. Subsequently for everyday, he had tummy ache, those very painful and you have no idea what's wrong..."

At this time the lift door opened and I am like ok no ending...sigh...and the guy said as he walked slowly out of the lift...I guess the rest of the people in the lift like me, did not mind lol, he said "its only a few days later my dad found the sticks when he went toilet..."

Faint...

Skinny Player - A Band Aid looking MP3 Player is Powered by Body Heat

=) What a restful day...I found a very interesting thing called the Skinny Player when one of Dan's friend gave a link on http://www.justpaste.it/....

I quickly went on google and found a few sites that was talking about it...

What is so great about Skinny Player? It looks great and just like a band aid...Jogging was the perfect usage...You don't need to use a head phone cos it has its own speakers at the sides...You don’t need batteries because the device will be using your body heat as the source of energy...a cool looking Play/Pause button.

Skinny Player concept is designed for repeat stick on and off, so you could stick and take off whenever the device gets stained or dirty. Looks perfect but its not in the market still...

Found from http://newstodaynews.com/skinny-player-is-a-mp3-player-that-use-body-heat-for-battery-it-designed-by-chih-wei-wang-and-shou-his-fu-from-china/13412

Chih-Wei Wang and Shou-His Fu are designer from China who make the MP3 player with the design specially and unique. It named Skinny Player, the music player does not need to be pinned on the shirt, belt, or dikantungi. Simply attached to the skin of the user, like a plaster bandage.

Both of designers claim that MP3 player that designed will not lose its adhesive power even if has been installed and removed as many as a hundred times from the skin.

As quoted from Discovery, December 3, 2010, in addition can taped to the skin, MP3 player also does not require batteries. To work, Skinny Player requires only heat from the human body.

From the circulated information , Skinny Player only has the on / off and flexible speaker who can dilekuk according to body surface that is attached with MP3 player.

Not yet known how the user can adjust the volume of music produced, but the estimated amount of memory that used was not large. It designed simply to keep an album of music.

The technical information that available about this MP3 player and how the body heat can be used to supply power also not yet available. However, small size, flexible and can be taped on the skin makes Skinny Player is touted suitable for use by those who like gymnastics or jogging one morning while accompanied by music.

I would have tought that such amazing gadget is another Apple's work...Can't wait to see it out in the market....

Big Snake....Real Big!

I was just going through some old emails that some friends sent me like 2 years ago (OMG I actually kept them!!!!) and found this intersting email....just looking at the 2nd picture gives me goosebumps...

Seems a sheep farmer was puzzled about the disappearance of some sheep on his farm. After a few weeks the farmer decided to put up an electric fence.

About a week later, this is what he found...

Now, I know we've all heard of people being eaten by snakes & I bet most of us have said, 'If a snake tried to eat me, I'd blah, blah, blah & get away.'

Well, this is a Python & they're extremely aggressive & have a few teeth that they use to hold their prey while they wrap around them & then constrict.

Could you get away if this one bit you & held on with it's 'few teeth?' (Note: The wires are 10 inches apart.)

What a multi millionaire thinks

NOT A STORY BUT A TRUE INCIDENT

An Indian man walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer.
He tells the loan officer that he is going to India on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000.

The bank officer tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, so the Indian man hands over the keys and documents of new Ferrari parked on the street in front of the bank. He produces the title and everything checks out. The loan officer agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.

The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the Indian for using a $250,000 Ferrari as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drives the Ferrari into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.

Two weeks later, the Indian returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41.

The loan officer says, "Sir, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multi millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow "$5,000" ?

The Indian replies:

"Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return'"

Breathing Therapy

The nose has a left and a right side; we use both to inhale and exhale.

Actually they are different; you would be able to feel the difference.

The right side represents the sun, left side represents the moon.

During a headache, try to close your right nose and use your left nose to breathe. In about 5 Mins, your headache will go?

If you feel tired, just reverse, close your left nose and breathe through your right nose. After a while, you will feel your mind is refreshed.

Right side belongs to 'hot', so it gets heated up easily, left side belongs to 'cold'.

It is said that most females breathe with their left noses, so they get "cooled off" faster. Most of the guys breathe with their right noses, they get worked up. (I doubt so actually....)

Do you notice the moment we wake up, which side breathes faster? Left o! r right? ?

If left is faster, you will feel tired. So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will get refreshe d quickly.

This can be taught to kids, but it is more effective when practiced by adults.

I receive an email from a friend telling me about his friend using the "Breathing Theraphy":

My friend used to have bad headaches and was always visiting the doctor.

There was this period when he suffered headache literally every night, unable to study.

He took painkillers, did not work.

He decided to try out the breathing therapy here: closed his right nose and breathed through his left nose.

In less than a week, his headaches were go! ne! He continued the exercise for one month.

This alternative natural therapy without medication is something that he has experienced.

So, why not give it a try? =D
