All-Day Flat-Belly Meal Plan

Image
Ever wanted to open your shirt confidently? Your weight loss efforts should begin the moment you wake. Here’s a simple menu for one day of healthful eating. Repeat as necessary: 6:30 a.m. The moment you wake up, drink a glass of skim milk. The protein will energise you, dampen your appetite and prime you for a low-glucose carbohydrate breakfast that’ll supply long-lasting energy. 7 a.m. You need to eat early in the day or you’re doomed to high-calorie, fatty binges later. Stuff down some high-fibre oatmeal. Add brown sugar for flavour or cantaloupe chunks for bulk. 10:30 a.m. Have a piece of fruit—an apple or a pear. The goal is to never get hungry. 12:30 p.m . Midday meals need to be protein-heavy to keep you mentally alert and to ward off the afternoon slump. Think fish, chicken, or beans. 4 p.m. Mid-afternoon is when your natural cravings for food hit their zenith. Any fat you eat will quickly fire up your appetite for a high-fat dinner. So eat a high-fibre

"Anymore?", he said

Image
Taken during XiangXiang enjoy his sweet cupcake =) One day a woman's husband died, and on that clear, cold morning, in the warmth of their bedroom, the wife was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn't "anymore". No more hugs, no more special moments to celebrate together, no more phone calls just to chat, no more "just one minute." Sometimes, what we care about the most gets all used up and goes away, never to return before we can say good-bye, say "I love you." So while we have it, it's best we love it, care for it, fix it when it's broken and heal it when it's sick . This is true for marriage.....And old cars... And children with bad report cards, and dogs with bad hips, and aging parents and grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it. Some things we keep -- like a best friend who moved away or a sister-in-law after divorce. There are just some things that make us happy,

I guess this is my first time blogging about sex related topic. Saw this article when I register for a new Hotmail account. Understand that Christmas and New Year 2011 are coming, so the "activities" will increase tremendously and I decided to share this article.

人 生 都 在 學 做 人

星雲大師 有一位徒弟,台大畢業後,到夏威夷讀碩士, 又到耶魯讀博士,花了好多年的時間,終於得到博士,非常歡喜。有一天他回來,對星雲說:「師父,我現在得到博士學位了,以後要再學習什麼呢?」星雲說:「學習人。」學習做人是一輩子的事,沒有辦法畢業的。星雲覺得人生,不管是士農工商、各種人等,只要學習就有進步,今天要跟大家分享需要學習的事。 第一 、 「 學習認錯」。 人常常不肯認錯,凡事都說是別人的錯,認為自己才是對的,其實不認錯就是一個錯。認錯的對象可以是父母、朋友、社會大眾、佛祖,甚至向兒女或是對我不好的人認錯,自己不但不會少了什麼,反而顯得你有度量。學習認錯是美好的,是一個大修行。 第二、「學習柔和」。 人的牙齒是硬的,舌頭是軟的,到了人生的最後,牙齒都掉光了,舌頭卻不會掉,所以要柔軟,人生才能長久,硬反而吃虧。心地柔軟了,是修行最大的進步。一般形容執著的人說,你的心、你的性格很冷、很硬,像鋼鐵一樣。如果我們像禪門說的調息、調身、調心,慢慢調伏像野馬、像猴子的這顆心,令它柔軟,人生才能活得更快樂、更長久。 第三 、「學習生忍」。 這世間就是忍一口氣,風平浪靜,退一步海闊天空;忍,萬事都能消除。忍就是會處理、 會化解,用智慧、能力讓大事化小、小事化無。各位要生活、要生存、要生命,有了忍,可以認清世間的好壞、善惡、是非,甚至接受它。 第四 、「 學習溝通」。 缺乏溝通,就會產生是非、爭執與誤會。現在中國大陸、香港和台灣,兩岸三地最重要的就是溝通,相互了解、相互體諒、相互幫助,大家都是龍兄虎弟,互相爭執、不溝通怎麼能和平呢? 第五 、「 學習放下」。 人生像一只皮箱,需要用的時候提起,不用的時就把它放下,應放下的時候,卻不放下,就像拖著沉重的行李,無法自在。人生的歲月有限,認錯、尊重、包容才能讓人接受,放下才自在啊! 第六 、「 學習感動」。 我們看到人家得好處,要歡喜;看到好人好事,要能感動。感動是一個愛心、菩薩心、菩提心,在我幾十年的歲月裡,有許多事情、語言感動了我,所以我也很努力的想辦法讓別人感動。 第七 、「 學習生存」。 為了生存,我要維護身體健康,身體健康不但對自己有利,也讓朋友、家人放心,所以也是孝親的行為。 ~ ~ ~ 祝 好 友 共 勉 之 ~ ~ Seven good life les

Debunking Rumors about Advertising and Photos

Image
Today I have a message from Facebook that I would like to share. You can now stop the email forwarding thingy about this rumor =) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "In the past couple of days, a rumor has begun spreading that claims we have changed our policies for third-party advertisers and the use of your photos. These rumors are false, and we have made no such change in our advertising policies. If you see a Wall post or receive a message with the following language or something similar, it is this false rumor: FACEBOOK has agreed to let third party advertisers use your posted pictures WITHOUT your permission. The advertisements that started these rumors were not from Facebook but placed within applications by third parties. Those ads violated our policies by misusing profile photos, and we already required the removal of those deceptive ads from third-party applications before this rumor began spreading. We are as concerned as many of you are about any potential threat
