What is Epistane?

Epistane is one of the newest designer steroids on the market today, and it is gaining attention very quickly. Epistane is actually a methylated version of the controlled substance Epitiostanol (2±,3±-Epithio-5±-androstan-17²-ol), which was created in the 1960's and used as a treatment for breast cancer. Since the only place Epitiostanol is only availabe at this time is in japan, chemists added a methyl group to the compund and the final product was a substance now known as Epistane. Epistane is a sulfur containing steroid which is known to have strong and long lasting anti-estrogenic activity as well as weak androgenic and mytropic activities.

What you can expect?

Since it is designed to be anti-estrogenic you can expect very dry gains from this compound. Epistane has low androgenic to anabolic activity. This meaning that it is much more anabolic then androgenic. Thus making sides very minimal to non existant from this substance. Also one of the great properties of this substance is that it does a great job in keeping the natural suppression of the gonads away. Since it has anti-estrogenic properties it keeps your LH levels elevated and it is also said both through science and human trial that epistane may have the ability to reduce gyno. This is still a widely debated outcome of epistane but is actually showing more and more positive results as it becomes more popular. Even though users will see dry gains on epistane it does not mean that it would be any insufficient for a bulking cycle. In fact it would be beneficial because it would generate lean gains. Through research it is reported that most users who have taken this substance have gained anywhere from 5-12 lbs in a 3-5 week cycle. Now in my opinion epistane would be better in a cutting cycle to keep the body dry while preserving and potentially add more lean muscle tissue.

Dosing:

Most users run epistane for 1-6 weeks using a dose between 10 and 60 mgs.

You should not run this substance for longer than 6 weeks.

A recommended beginner cycle would be starting at 10 mgs for the first 2 days of the cycle and then running it like this for the rest of the cycle.

Week 1: 10 mgs for the first 2 days then increasing the dose to 20 mgs.

Week 2: 20 mgs

Week 3: 30 mgs

Week 4: 40 mgs- This week should be optional depending on how your body reacts.

While taking epistane you should be aware that it is a methylated compund therefore you should not exceed the proper dosing.

What needs to be taken with Epistane?

Even though epistane has very minimal side effects, you should still use the proper support supplements to make sure your body stays in good health throughout the cycle. Since Epistane is methylated, milk thistle is highly recomended to protect the liver values. It would also be wise to get blood work done after completing a cycle.

Red Yeast Rice- This product is a Fermented Rice product that basicly protects your cardiovascular system from any damage Sostonol that may come from Sostonol.

Celery Seed- Acts as an anti-oxidant which helps reduce blood pressure and also can aid the liver on cycle.

Hawthorne Berry: Also very useful to lower BP and keep it on check. A great on cycle supplement.
Dosage 1000mg ed on cycle.

Milk Thistle (80% standardized Silymarin)- This should be taken all the way through. It should be started as a pre load and be taken all the way through PCT(Post Cycle Therapy).

Also you may want to look further into these products to help with blood pressure and cholesterol regulation / liver and support:

Liver: K-R-ALA, NAC ( N-Acetyl-Cysteine), Lecithin

Cholesterol: Sesathin, Guggul, CoEnzyme Q10*, Flax Seed Oil, Safflower Oil*, Policosanol*, Niacin, Garlic, Pantethine

Blood Pressure: Coenzyme Q10, Garlic ,C-12 Peptide, high-dose vitamin B6 and vitamin C.

Post Cycle Therapy (PCT)

Even though epistane does have anti-estrogenic properties, it does not mean that PCT should be avoided. A proper SERM will make sure that your natural hormone levels are back where they were before the cycle.

Here I have outlined the basic Clomid and Nolvadex doses for a proper cycle of Sostonol.

Basic Post Cycle Therapy:

Note: You only need to use one of these serms.

Clomid:

Day 1: 300mg

Day 2-11: 100mg daily

Day 12-21: 50mg daily

Clomid:

week 1: 150mg

week 2: 100

week 3: 50

week 4: 50

If you do not want to use clomid then:

Tamoxifen:

Week 1 (or 2): 40-50 mg daily.

Week 2 (or 3) through week 4 (or 5): 20-25mg daily.

Tamoxifen:

week 1: 40mg daily

week 2: 40mg daily

week 3: 20mg daily

week 4: 20mg daily

Conclusion:

I would definitely recommend epistane for both amateur and experienced AAS users because of it's greal lean muscle building properties. Even though it is a great substance to use on its own, I think it would be beneficial to add another substance like Prostanozol, or 1,4 AD which is not a methyl and stack the two. The reasoning behind using a non-methyl while stacking is because epistane is already metyhlated and could be dangerous if used with a methylated Prohormone/Designer Steroid like Superdrol or Halodrol.

How to Cook Bok Choy

Bok choy is a leafy vegetable belonging to the cabbage family. Long familiar to Chinese cooks, and to those who love Chinese food, it is showing up in a wide variety of other types of dishes. In fact, in any recipe in which you would normally use cabbage, you can probably use bok choy.

Nowadays bok choy can be found in most local supermarkets the year around. You might find it spelled as "bak choi" or even "paak choi," but "bok choy" seems to have become the preferred form in North America. Less commonly, it will go under a different name altogether; Chinese mustard cabbage, for example.

As Words

Just as with other green leafy vegetables, you should look for plants that are free of brown spots and that have firm stalks. The stalks themselves will be white in color; the leaves a darkish green.

Bok choy is wonderfully nutritious. It is low in calories--about a dozen in the usual serving. It is also bursting with vitamins A and C. In fact, you could get nearly all of your recommended daily allowance of the latter in one serving of bok choy, and about a third of your RDA of the former.

Bok choy is an easy plant to prepare. Just give it a good rinsing first and you can munch it raw for a healthy afternoon snack, or chop it up and add it to a salad.

Need a quick side dish to a main meal? French-cut the stems into pieces and place them, with the leaves, in a casserole dish. Add a little water, cover the dish, and zap in the microwave for 2 minutes. Remove just the leaves from the dish and zap the stems for 3 more minutes. Season both the leaves and the stems with butter, salt and pepper and serve it all together.

The most common way to cook bok choy is to stir fry it, in a wok or a regular frying pan. Tear or cut the leaves and stems and place in the pan, add three tablespoons of water, and begin heating (use a medium setting) as you stir. Add some cooking oil into which you have strained some fresh garlic. Remove the leaves at the two-minute mark and continue stir frying the stalks for three additional minutes.

After cooking, but before serving, drizzle a little soy sauce or sesame oil over the bok choy.

You can also include bok choy in a more robust stir fry, one that contains shrimp or chicken perhaps, along with bean sprouts, snow peas and other Chinese-restaurant type ingredients.

My main suggestion for bok choy? Experiment! Really, it's hard to go wrong with this versatile vegetable in the kitchen.

Becoming Like Christ - Through His Word

The word Christian means Christ like - After we get saved, we spend the rest of our lives learning how to take on the character of Christ, to become more like Him. And we learn how through His Word. Abiding in God's Word includes three activities.

God uses the Word, to teach us how to become like Him. Matthew 4:4 tells us we must feed on every word. "But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."

As Words

Christianity is the only religion in America that is under constant attack by the secular society. The reason is, is that they know that it is the truth. Spiritual growth is the process of replacing lies of the devil, with the truth of the word. Jesus prayed in John 17:17 "Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth."

Sanctification requires knowledge. And knowledge comes through the Word. The Spirit of God (Holy Spirit), uses the Word of God, to make us like the Son of God. To become like Christ, we must fill our lives with his Word. The Bible says in 2 Timothy 3:17, "that through the Word we are put together and shaped up for the tasks God has for us." (The Bible prepares us to do His will).

James I:18 tells us "that God gave us life through the word of truth so we might be the most important of all the things he made". He put us above all other creation. All of creation exists because "God said It." He spoke it all into existence. Without God's Word we would not even be alive.

The Bible is far more than a guidebook that we use for church doctrine. God's Word generates life, creates faith, produces change, frightens the Devil, causes miracles, heals hurts, builds character, changes circumstances, brings joy, overcomes adversity, defeats temptation, infuses hope, releases
power, cleanses our minds, brings things into being, and guarantees our future forever! We cannot live without the Word of God!

ABIDING IN GOD'S WORD. - There are more Bibles in print today than ever before, but a Bible on the shelf is worthless. Millions of believers are plagued with spiritual anorexia, starving to death from spiritual malnutrition. To be a healthy disciple of Jesus, feeding on God's Word must be our first priority. Jesus called it "abiding." He said, in John 8:31-32 " . . . If ye continue in my word (abide), then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."(freedom brings peace)

ABIDING IN GOD'S WORD INCLUDES THREE ACTIVITIES

FIRST ACTIVITY -- I MUST ACCEPT IT'S AUTHORITY -- 2 Tim 3:16 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" KJV

The Bible must become the authoritative standard for my life: -- the compass I rely on for direction, -- the counsel I listen to for making wise decisions, -- and the benchmark I use for evaluating everything. The Bible must always have the first and last word in my life.

Many of our troubles occur because we base our choices on unreliable authorities:

1. Culture - "doing what everyone else does"

2. Tradition - "doing what we've always done"

3. Reasoning - "doing what seems logical"

4. Emotion - "doing what feels right"

The most important decision we can make today is, to decide to make "The Word Of God" the ultimate authority in our life. Determined to ask first, "What does the Bible say" when making decisions. Accept when God says to do something. Be determined to trust God's Word and do it whether or not it makes sense or if you feel like doing it.

SECOND ACTIVITY - I MUST ASSIMILATE (ABSORB) ITS TRUTH -- It's not enough to just believe the Bible (even the Devil believes the Bible); I must fill my mind with it so that the Holy Spirit can change me with the truth (make me more like Jesus). If we have no knowledge, the Holy Spirit has no tools to teach us.

There are five ways to assimilate the Word.

A. RECEIVE GOD'S WORD -- And listen and accept it with an open, receptive attitude. The parable of the sower illustrates how our receptiveness determines whether or not God's Word takes root in our lives and bears fruit (see Luke 8:4-15).. Jesus identified three unreceptive attitudes.

HARD SOIL (a closed mind) - SHALLOW SOIL (a superficial mind) - SOIL WITH WEEDS (a distracted mind). - and then he said in Luke 8:18 "To consider carefully how you listen." Anytime you feel you are not learning anything from a sermon or a Bible teacher, you should check your attitude.

What is bearing fruit? Essentially, it is becoming like Jesus. Spiritual fruit will show itself in our lives as a change in our character and outlook. As we spend time with Jesus and get to know Him better, His thoughts will become our thoughts. His purpose will become our purpose. We will become like Him.

B. READ GOD'S WORD - " Like newborn babes," the Aspostle Peter wrote, "crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation" (1 Peter 2:2) -- Millions of us have access to the Bible. In spite of this, many believers are more faithful to reading their daily newspaper then their Bibles. Or they think what they get at church is sufficient. Or we watch television for three hours, then read the Bible for three minutes and expect to grow. We should establish a daily Bible reading plan.

C. RESEARCH AND STUDY GOD'S WORD - The difference between reading and studying the Bible involves two additional activities: asking questions of the text and writing down your thoughts. You will discover far more if you pause and ask such simple questions as who? what? when? where? why? and how? Surround yourself with study aids and don't be afraid to ask others for their input.

The Bible says in James 1:25 "But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty (the Word), and continueth therein (Takes time to see and examine the state of his soul, the grace of his God), he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed."

D. REMEMBER GOD'S WORD - We often think we have a poor memory, but the truth is, we remember what is important to us. If God's Word is important to you, you will take time
to remember it. There are enormous benefits to memorizing Bible verses. It will help you resist temptation, make wise decisions, reduce stress, build confidence, offer good advice, and share your faith with others.

Col 3:16 tells us "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; . . ." (Remember what Christ taught and let his words enrich your lives and make you wise)

E. REFLECT ON GOD'S WORD - The Bible calls it meditation, which is focused thinking. It takes serious effort. If you know how to worry, you already know how to meditate. Worry is focused thinking on something negative. Meditation is doing the same thing, only focusing on God's Word instead of your problem. No other habit can do more to transform your life and make you more like Jesus than daily reflection on Scripture.

One of the reasons God called David "a man after his own heart" is that David loved to reflect on God's Word. He said in Ps 119:97 "O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day."

THIRD ACTIVITY - I MUST APPLY IT'S PRINCIPLES -- Receiving, reading, researching, remembering, and reflecting on the Word are all useless if we fail to put them into practice. The Bible says we must become "doers of the Word." This is the hardest step of all, because Satan fights it so intensely. He doesn't mind you going to Bible studies as long as you don't do anything with what you learn.

Matthew 7:24 "Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:"

To become more like Christ we must: Read God's Word -- Accept It - Absorb It and Apply It.

History of Mascots

Background of Mascots

The history of mascots dates back to cavemen and early societies who hunted for their livelihood. Early accounts of masked creatures, often resembling animals were drawn or etched on cave walls and depicted in ancient art. Totem poles were filled with likenesses of animals in ancient cultures. These likenesses are much like the concept of the team mascots evident on football fields and basketball courts. Usually in ancient times the history of mascots' shows that these likenesses were often worshiped. This was especially true during times of hunting and harvest. Ancient tribal people would dress up in the likeness of animals or those on totem poles to incite goodwill from them. They believed this would help with successful hunts and bountiful harvests. Also, ancient cultures would dress up in masks or animal like figures for purposes of fertility. Many would dance in the "mascot" like costume to bring about fertility for people in their tribe or village.

As Words

Evolution of Mascots

Society has come a long way in its current version of mascots. Mascots as we know them today have been in the same style and incarnation since the 1800's. They began to spring up on high school and college playing fields during that era. Often live animals were used as the official mascots of teams, and athletes were proudly wearing a patch with the mascot on their uniform. The maintenance and upkeep of live animals became costly and cumbersome, so they were largely eliminated. They evolved to resemble the puppet-like versions we see today.

They've got Personality

Mascots are now seen as artists and entertainers with traits that now make it an art form. They have come to be an embodiment of what the team is and may correlate to the location of the team, or some other overriding characteristic that makes the team unique. Effective mascots do not learn their stage presence from a classroom. Having the ability to become one with the character and reflect this through physical action is crucial to being a believable mascot. The person must be able to put their individuality aside and really get into character. Mascots are especially popular with children. They need to act in a way that is child-friendly and not intimidating.

The more personable a mascot is, the more approachable they will be. Plus they will be well-received by fans of all ages. The position of mascot wields a lot of power over crowds at games. They have the ability to either really involve the crowd in the game, or make a poor attempt and cause the crowd to turn on them.

Mascots as Symbols

Throughout the history of mascots, symbology is a major component that keeps rising to the surface. Mascots are often tagged with names that indicate gender and/or certain attributes. For example, a mascot called Robbie the Rabbit would indicate a male rabbit that is fast on its feet. This does a lot to create an image in the mind of fans and anyone thinking about the particular team the mascot represents. Fans will also come to expect the mascot to react in consistent and specific ways to them on a continual basis.

If a mascot has a habit of doing a certain dance, fans may be disappointed if the mascot decides not to do the famous dance on game day. It is a unique job and the rich history of mascots continues to unfold as time goes by. It is a position that requires creativity, consistency, individuality, and strong symbology. Mascots may not be worshiped like they were in ancient societies, but they are powerful images etched upon the minds of fans everywhere. Many times the team is synonymous with the mascot itself.

Life As a Boy - Erections

When you're a boy, erections are both welcomed and feared simultaneously. By the time a boy gets to be a legal adult, this physical phenomenon isn't too mysterious, but for a young, impressionable and hormone-flooded youngster, it seems like the penis can have a life of its own, and that life seems to be determined to humiliate the lad as much as possible.

Are Testicles Necessary?

As Words

Testicles do not descend outwardly until a boy is entering puberty, so there is a common misconception that the youngster is incapable of getting an erection until then. Although testicles are necessary for the production of sperm, they are not necessary for an erection, which is caused by sudden blood flow to the penis.

Studies have shown that, even while still in the womb, a boy erection is a regular event. Even after birth, baby boys often startle diaper-changers with their erections. This is perfectly normal and doesn't mean the baby is sexually precocious. As any man will grudgingly tell you, you don't have to be sexually aroused in order to get an erection.

Peer Pressure

While growing up, children generally like to be considered as a normal kid. Anything that makes them look strange is usually ridiculed by other kids. Also, because the boy is young and not used to dealing with public embarrassment, being teased can be a very intense time. A boy erection in gym class or in public is a more often occurring event than an individual boy may think and usually happens to any man.

Anything that causes a sudden rush of blood to fill up the vessels in the penis will cause an erection. Physical exercise or even taking a shower can trigger the process. Unlike girls, which are usually shielded from being naked in front of other girls, boys often have to take communal showers and, through the use of the public urinal, have to expose themselves to some extent. This makes a boy more open to ridicule for a physical reason.

What's Normal?

Because of many social taboos on talking about boy erections in public, young boys can often feel as if they are somehow cured or abnormal for getting an erection at an inopportune moment. There does tend to be a big fear that somehow they are sick, diseased or somehow abnormal. Well, it is perfectly normal to think you or your genitalia are abnormal.

There doesn't seem to be a normal amount of times that a boy should get an erection in a usual day or night. What's normal for you is not necessarily going to be normal for anybody else. The only times a boy needs to consult a doctor are when the erections are somehow very painful or if he discovers a lump on his genitals.

How Skype Works

Skype is a software application that allows you to make free phone calls to more than 75 million people worldwide, and shockingly cheap calls to practically everywhere else on Earth! As a result of that, Skype has become the fastest growing service in the history of the Internet. Recently, the company was acquired by eBay, another step forward towards achieving the final goal of making Skype the world's largest communication company.

Skype is easy to install and use. It allows its users to make crystal clear calls, regardless of their location, send instant messages, switch seamlessly between text and voice communication, make video calls, conference calls, transfer files, call landlines and cell phones for a fraction of the cost of a traditional call. Skype is truly making a revolution in the way we communicate.

As Words

But how does it actually work? This article focuses on describing the Skype network and the technology behind it.

Skype is a type of peer-to-peer Voice-Over-IP client, based on the Kazaa file sharing program. The developers of Skype claim that it provides better voice quality than similar applications like MSN and Yahoo Messenger. It also encrypts calls end-to-end.

There are two types of machines in the Skype network - ordinary host (Skype Client) and Super Node (SN). An ordinary host is the computer of a regular user who has the application installed and connects to the network in order to communicate with other users. The Super Nodes are the end-point of ordinary hosts in the network. In other words, ordinary hosts connect to the Super Nodes. Any computer with a public IP and proper hardware configuration can be a SN. An ordinary host must connect to a super node and must register itself with the Skype login server for a successful login. The Skype login server is the only central unit in the whole network. It stores the usernames and respective passwords of all Skype users. Nslookups have shown that this server is located in Denmark. All Super Nodes connect to the login server in attempt to verify the username password of the client. It stores your Skype Name, your e-mail address, and an encrypted representation of your password.

If you are a regular Skype user, then your computer is considered an 'ordinary host' that connects to a Super Node. The Super Nodes are servers, located in different parts of the world. But your Skype client, must know to which SN it has to connect. Therefore, every Skype client (SC) maintains a local table that contains the IPs and corresponding ports of Super Nodes. This is called a host cache and it stored in the Windows Registry of the given SC. So basically, every time you load up Skype, it reads the date from the host cache, takes the first IP and port from there and tries to connect to this SN. If the connection fails for some reason (the SN is offline; it is no longer part of the network, etc) then it reads the next line from the table. In case it fails to connect to any of the IPs listed, the Skype returns a login error upon start-up. Hence, the host cache must contain at least one valid entry in order for the application to connect to the network and work properly. Valid entry means an IP address and port number of an online Super Node. The path to the table in the Windows Registry is HKEY_CURRENT_USER / SOFTWARE / SKYPE / PHONE / LIB / CONNECTION / HOSTCACHE. You can verify that on your computer by opening the Start menu, then click Run and enter 'regedit', without the dashes. Of course, the exact path could be different in the next versions of the application.

As a concept, Super Nodes were introduced in the third-generation P2P networks. They allow improved search performance, reduced file-transfer latency, network scalability, and the ability to resume interrupted downloads and simultaneously download segments of one file from multiple peers. Basically, they help ordinary hosts connect to each other and guide efficiently the encrypted network traffic.

Super Nodes are also responsible for the 'Global Indexing'. This technology enables you to search for other users in the network. The company guarantees that it will find a user if he has registered and has logged in during the last 72 hours.

A very interesting moment about the Skype network is that it 'self-modifiable'. If you have the application installed, your computer may turn into a Super Node, without you even knowing it, because those capabilities don't have a noticeable impact on a computer's performance. SNs basically store the addresses of up to several hundred Skype users, without carrying any voice, text or file-transfer data. In that manner, the more Skype users come online, the more supernodes become available to expand the capacity of the network.

Skype routes the traffic intelligently by choosing the optimum data transfer path. Since it uses either TCP or UDP protocol, it breaks the whole data stream into separate packets, which can take different paths to the end destination. The final arrangement is done at the receiving end.

As far as safety and privacy are concerned, Skype uses Advanced Encryption Standard, known as Rijndel, used also by the U.S. Government organizations to protect sensitive data. Skype uses 256-bit encryption.

The programmers of Skype have implemented wideband codecs which allows it to maintain a good sound quality at a bandwidth of 32kb/s and allow frequencies between 5-8,000Hz to pass trough.

Your list of contacts, the application stores in the Windows Registry. This is called the Buddy list and once again, it is digitally encrypted. So, the list is local for every machine, or in other words, it's not downloaded from the central server.

Let's briefly describe the tasks of the Skype client. First it connects to the network. It then listens on particular ports for incoming calls, refreshes the host cache table, uses wideband codecs, maintains the buddy list, encrypts messages and determines if there is a firewall or not.

The login process:

The login process is the most important one and it consists of several phases. As mentioned, SC must connect to a valid SN in order to authenticate the username and password with the Central Server.

Skype gets the fist IP from the host cache, sends it a UDP packet and waits for response. If there is no response after 5 seconds, it sends a TCP packet to the same IP. It tries to establish a TCP connection to the HC IP address and port 80 (HTTP port). If still unsuccessful, it tried to connect to IP address and port 443 (HTTPS port). If this does not work either, it reads the next address in the HC. If Skype is unable to connect to a SN, it will report a login failure.

The application comes with several build-in addresses of different nodes, called bootstrap super nodes.

If the connection attempt is successful, the client must authenticate the user name and password with the Skype login server, which holds all user names and passwords and makes sure they are unique across the whole network. When the application connects to an SN, it receives an up-to-date list of other active SNs, so it has the most current information.

The Media Transfer process:

The video/voice communication through Skype is established through UDP. The trick here is that quite often, one of the users is behind a firewall or a router, hence it doesn't have a real IP address. But if both Skype clients are on real IPs, then the media traffic flows directly between them over UDP. The size of the voice packet is 67 bytes, which is actually the size of UDP payload. One second conversation results in roughly 140 voice packets being exchanged both ways, or 3-16 kilobytes/s.

If one of the callee or both of them do not have a public IP, then they send voice traffic to another online Skype node over UDP or TCP. The developers of Skype have preferred to use UDP for voice transmission as much as possible.

An interesting fact is that even if both sides are not speaking, voice packets will still be flowing between them. The purpose of these so called 'silent packages' is to keep the connection alive.

Conclusion:

There are several factors responsible for the success of Skype. First of all, the voice quality is better compared to other applications. It works without a problem on computers with firewall. It is very easy to install and use. Skype's security is also a big advantage. Everything that is being transferred across the network is being encrypted to ensure privacy. As a result of that, even if hackers intercept the data being transferred, they won't be able to decode it.

The Skype application does not include any adware or spyware. But, there are cases when third parties have managed to add such functionalities (not only for Skype), so it's really important that you download it from the right place. Therefore, do it either from the official website, or from respected sites as http://www.freesecuredownloads.com/skype/index.html.

Words For Food in Filipino

The need for food is as basic and as necessary as the need for oxygen. Everyday our bodies remind us of the need to eat. Moreover, when you neglect to feed your body, hunger pangs tell you that you need to eat. Food serves as the fuel that gives us the energy and provides our body with the nutrients to function properly.

In the Filipino language, food is called "pagkain." There are a lot of native delicacies that can be found in the different regions in the country. If you go to Pampanga, there you will find "longganisa," which the Filipino version of sausage. Cebu City is popular for its dried fish called "danggit." The Bicol region offers a specialty called "laing," a kind of food cooked in coconut milk with lots of chili. When you visit Quezon, you will discover "pansit hab-hab," the Philippine's fried noodles which are placed on a leaf. Nueva Ecija is popular for its "pinakbet" which is a mixture of various vegetables cooked with fish sauce. Going to Ilocos, you will discover "bagnet," the region's cured meat.

As Words

Aside from native delicacies, street food, point-point, and pika-pika are quite popular. We will say what point-point and pika-pika are further on in the article.

On the streets of the Philippines, you will find vendors selling boiled duck egg known as "balut," and you'll also find boiled eggs with an orange coating called "kwe-kwek." Other street food sold include grilled dishes known as "ihaw-ihaw." Grilled chicken intestine is also available and it is called "isaw." To quench your thirst you can also find a juice known as "palamig." These juices come in a variety of flavors.

In the Philippines one will find "point-point" as mentioned earlier; which are also known as "turo-turo." Point-point / turo-turo are small cafeterias where the customers have to point to the precooked meals of the day and then they are served the meal that they have chosen.

If you visit the Philippines, you might hear the term "pika-pika" which is used when speaking about finger foods;the type of food that are light snacks. For instance, there is a food known as "chicharon." Chicharon is a crunchy snack made from fried chicken or the skin of an animal and it is usually dipped in vinegar before being eaten.

The primary meals in the country are "umagahan" which is the word for "breakfast." The second meal of the day is "tanghalian" which is the word for "lunch." Lunch often consists of cooked rice, fried vegetables, fish or other types of meat. Dinner is served later in the day and in Tagalog the word for "dinner" is "hapunan." At dinner-time steamed rice, vegetables, and fried fish or meat are usually prepared.

Rice is a staple food so you will find that a typical Filipino breakfast consists of fried eggs, along with some rice which is frequently fried. You can also find that this is served with fish or meat which can be translated in Filipino as "pritong itlog," "sinangag," "isda," and "karne," respectively. The karne (meat) served can include "manok" (chicken), or "karne ng baka" (beef meat).

How a Guy Tells You He Loves You Without Saying the Words

Most men get uncomfortable when it comes to talking about their feelings. This discomfort is intensified when applied to relationships. Many men feel awkward or vulnerable whenever they have to express their affection verbally. As such, they choose not to talk about it. Fortunately, their actions give you a clue about how they feel.

You know that a man loves you for sure if he exhibits specific body language. Here are some of them:

As Words

1. He looks straight into your eyes.

A guy who looks at you without fidgeting is looking for a deeper connection. It also shows that he has nothing to hide from you. He's letting you see him as he is. Moreover, he wants you to be certain that you show the same interest when you look back at him. It's important for him to know that you reciprocate his feelings.

2. He always finds a way to get close to you.

When a guy makes sure that he's close enough to touch you, you can be certain that he wants to be with you. He will hold your hand, play with your hair or touch your arm. Then, when you talk, he leans in to listen to you. He doesn't want to miss what you're saying. Don't be surprised if he can quote you word for word.

3. He makes sure that you're safe.

A guy who genuinely cares about your welfare thinks about protecting you from all sorts of danger. When you're crossing the street, he makes sure that you're on the least dangerous side. He also checks on your seatbelt and ensures that the locks on your doors are all fine.

4. He goes out of his way to keep you comfortable.

Anticipating your needs is a sure sign that a guy values your presence in his life. He will get your coat when you feel cold, fix you a drink when you're thirsty and carry your heavy bag or groceries for you.

5. He always follows you with his eyes.

Even after you've said goodbye, a guy who has sincere intentions will keep looking at you as you walk away. It's as if he doesn't want to let you out of his sight. When he's the one who is leaving, he will keep looking back at you.

As the saying goes, "Actions speak louder than words." This is especially true when it comes to men who are in love.

Book Writing - Using Styles in Microsoft Word

When writing a book, and submitting it to a publisher it is important to give your manuscript a professional look. The best way I've found to do that is by using styles.

Some people may tell you that MS Word is not the best program to use for a book manuscript, but it is the program most users have on their computer, and Word is a format accepted by most publishers. Publishers have their own typesetters and use book set up programs they like best. Since Word is easy to use and has a lot of good features for writers, I'll share some tips about using styles in Word.

As Words

You will use a variety of formatting styles in writing a book:

* chapter headings

* page headers and footers

* Body text

* italicized text

* underlined

* works cited/bibliography

* table of contents

* bullet points

* hyperlinks

To set a style, go to format on your tool bar. Click on styles and formatting, then click new style. A box will open and you will give the style a name such as regular book text, italic book text, etc. You may change the style type in the drop-down boxes below. For example, you may want body text to follow your chapter headings.

If you want your newly created style to be available next time you open a new document. You will need to add it to the template. While you have the window open, look at the bottom of the dialogue box, check the box for "add to template" and "automatically update". This means that whenever you decide to change something to one section of text, Word will automatically change all sections of text which have been assigned that particular style. Don't close the box yet. There's more to do.

Now click on the format button on the left side of the dialogue box. Set your font and paragraph or any other feature you need such as tabs or bullet styles. Click ok to close.

Now highlight an area of text that you want to assign to the style you just created. On the toolbar just below "file" in the upper left side of your Word document there is a box next to the font type that you may have noticed and wondered what it is for. This box has a drop down menu from which to choose a style. In the list, find the style you just created and click on it. Close the box. The highlighted text will then be formatted to the style you just specified.

You can modify the style at any time by going to "format" on your toolbar at the top of your document screen. Select styles and formatting which will open another window. There is a list of all the styles you have available to choose from. Right click on the style you want to modify and use the regular toolbar to make the changes.

I'll be teaching a class on the advanced features of Microsoft's Word program, so be sure to check my blog for information on upcoming classes and events.

Four Personality Types and the Words That Motivate Them

Before you can learn to persuade, you'll need to understand the psychology of human motivation. What makes a person tick? What makes a person take risks? What makes a person try alternatives? What makes a person want to expand a comfort zone?

Psychologists have identified four distinct personality types: Sanguine, Phlegmatic, Melancholic and Choleric. Everyone leans towards one of these types. If you can learn to understand what excites, motivates, irritates and frustrates these different personality types, you'll be well on your way to helping people to listen to you. So you should probably consider how each personality type reacts to words, and attempt to use words that each type responds to well.

As Words

Sanguine personalities agree to take action when they believe the action will give them approval, attention, or fun. Choleric personalities agree to take action when they believe the action will help them to achieve their goals, save them time, or give them control over their destiny. Melancholic personalities agree to take action only after they've analyzed all options and observed all data. They like to organize their thoughts, reach obvious conclusions and live an orderly life. And finally, phlegmatic personalities agree to take action only when they believe that the action will benefit those they love, keep people happy, make situations run smoothly and bring harmony into the lives of everyone around them.

Here are a few words that motivate each personality type:

Sanguine

Fantastic

Fun

Wonderful

Recognition

Awesome

Give these words a try, and you'll be amazed at how effective they are. But be careful, if you use Choleric words on Phlegmatic people, you'll only make them nervous. If you use Sanguine words on Melancholic people, their brains may not compute. If you use Melancholic words on Sanguine people, you'll never keep their attention. And if you try Phlegmatic words on Choleric people, they'll think you're wasting their time. However, if you can learn to speak the languages of the various types correctly, your words will have amazing impact...

Solving Algebra Word Problems Made Easy With a Lucid Explanation of the Method With Examples

Equations are frequently used to solve practical problems.

The steps involved in the method of solving an algebra word problem are as follows.

As Words

STEP 1 :

Read the problem carefully and note down what is given and what is required.

STEP 2 :

Select a letter or letters say x (and y ) to represent the unknown quantity(ies) asked for.

STEP 3 :

Represent the word statements of the problem in the symbolic language step by step.

STEP 4 :

Look for quantities which are equal as per conditions given and form an equation or equations.

STEP 5 :

Solve the equation(s) obtained in step 4.

STEP 6 :

Check the result for making sure that your answer satisfies the requirements of the problem.

EXAMPLE 1 (on Linear equations in one variable)

Statement of the Problem :

One fifth of a number of butterflies in a garden are on jasmines and one third of them are on roses. Three times the difference of the butterflies on jasmines and roses are on lilys.If the remaining one is flying freely, find the number of butterflies in the garden.

solution to the problem :

Let x be the number of butterflies in the garden.

As per data, Number of butterflies on jasmines = x/5. Number of butterflies on roses = x/3.

Then difference of the butterflies on jasmines and roses = x/3 -x/5

As per data Number of butterflies on lilys = Three times the difference of the butterflies on jasmines and roses = 3(x/3 - x/5)

As per data, Number of butterflies flying freely = 1.

So, number of butterflies in the garden = x = Number of butterflies on jasmines + Number of butterflies on roses + Number of butterflies on lilys + Number of butterflies flying freely = x/5 + x/3 + 3(x/3 - x/5) + 1.

So, x = x/5 + x/3 + 3(x/3) - 3(x/5) + 1.

This is the Linear Equation formed by converting the given word statements to the symbolic language.

Now we have to solve this equation.

x = x/5 + x/3 + x - 3x/5 + 1

Cancelling x which is present on both sides, we get

0 = x/5 + x/3 - 3x/5 + 1

L.C.M. of the denominators 3, 5 is (3)(5) = 15.

Multiplying both sides of the equation with 15, we get

15(0) = 15(x/5) + 15(x/3) - 15(3x/5) + 15(1) i.e. 0 = 3x + 5x - 3(3x) + 15.

i.e. 0 = 8x - 9x + 15 i.e. 0 = -x + 15 i.e. 0 + x = 15 i.e. x = 15.

Number of butterflies in the garden = x = 15. Ans.

Check:

Number of butterflies on jasmines = x/5 = 15/5 = 3.

Number of butterflies on roses = x/3 = 15/3 = 5.

Number of butterflies on lilys = 3(5 - 3) = 3(2) = 6.

Number of butterflies flying freely = 1.

Total butterflies = 3 + 5 + 6 + 1. = 15. Same as the Ans.(verified.)

EXAMPLE 2 (on Linear Equations in Two Variables)

Statement of the problem :

A and B each have a certain number of marbles. A says to B, " if you give 30 to me, I will have twice as many as left with you." B replies "if you give me 10, I will have thrice as many as left with you." How many marbles does each have?

Solution to the problem :

Let x be the number of marbles A has. And Let y be the number of marbles B has. If B gives 30 to A, then A has x + 30 and B has y - 30.

By data, When this happens, A has twice as many as left with B.

So, x + 30 = 2(y - 30) = 2y - 2(30) = 2y - 60. i.e. x - 2y = -60 - 30

i.e. x - 2y = -90 ..........(i)

If A gives 10 to B, then A has x - 10 and B has y + 10.

By data, When this happens, B has thrice as many as left with A.

So, y + 10 = 3(x - 10) = 3x - 3(10) = 3x - 30 i.e. y - 3x = -30 -10

i.e. 3x - y = 40 ...........(ii)

Equations (i) and (ii) are the Linear Equations formed by converting the given word statements to the symbolic language.

Now we have to solve these simultaneous equations. To solve (i) and (ii), Let us make y coefficients same.

(ii)(2) gives 6x - 2y = 80 ...........(iii)

x - 2y = -90 ..........(i)

Subtracting (i) from (iii), we get 5x = 80 - (-90) = 80 + 90 = 170

i.e. x = 170/5 = 34. Using this in Equation (ii), we get 3(34) - y = 40

i.e. 102 - y = 40 i.e. - y = 40 - 102 = -62 i.e. y = 62.

Thus A has 34 marbles and B has 62 marbles. Ans.

Check:

If B gives 30 to A from his 62, then A has 34 + 30 = 64 and B has 62 - 30 = 32. Twice 32 is 64. (verified.)

If A gives 10 to B from his 34, then A has 34 - 10 = 24 and B has 62 + 10 = 72. Thrice 24 is 72. (verified.)

EXAMPLE 3 (on Quadratic Equations)

Statement of the Problem.

A cyclist covers a distance of 60 km in a given time. If he increases his speed by 2 kmph, he will cover the distance one hour before. Find the original speed of the cyclist.

Solution to the Problem :

Let the original speed of the cyclist be x kmph.

Then, the time cyclist takes to cover a distance of 60 km = 60/x

If he increases his speed by 2 kmph, the time taken = 60/(x + 2)

By data, the second time is less than the first by 1 hour.

So, 60/(x + 2) = 60/x - 1

Multiplying both sides with (x + 2)(x), we get

60x = 60(x + 2) - 1(x+ 2)x = 60x + 120 - x^2 - 2x

i.e. x^2 + 2x - 120 = 0

Comparing this equation with ax^2 + bx + c = 0, we get

a = 1, b = 2 and c = -120

We know by Quadratic Formula, x = {- b ± square root(b^2 - 4ac)}/2a

Applying this Quadratic Formula here, we get

x = {- b ± square root(b^2 - 4ac)}/2a

= [-2 ± square root{ (2)^2 - 4(1)( -120)}]/2(1)

= [-2 ± square root{ 4 + 4(1)(120)}]/2

= [-2 ± square root{4(1 + 120)}]/2 = [-2 ± square root{4(121)}]/2

= [-2 ± 2(11)}]/2 = -1±11 = -1+11 or -1-11 = 10 or -12

But x can not be negative. So, x = 10.

So, The original speed of the cyclist = x kmph. = 10 kmph. Ans.
