Traditional weight loss theories tell us that we either do something positive or negative in order to loose weight. To do something positive could probably mean exercising, having a more active lifestyle, drinking some kind of weight loose pill or getting surgery. Doing something negative may involve calorie counting, limiting food intake, going into a diet etc. etc. But what about doing something that is neither positive nor negative? What about doing nothing at all? Enter a new paradigm in weight loss, loosing weight by sleeping well. Study shows that sleep deprived individuals are more likely to be obese. I am neither a medical doctor nor a scientist, and it is best to first consult your doctor about this. However doing some online research, I found that such new thinking has a scientific basis. In order to understand this more simply let me introduce to you two hormones in our bodies known as Leptin and Ghrelin. Leptin regulates the appetite, metabolism and calorie … [Read more...]

Why I love my Suzuki Alto
I bought my Suzuki Alto sometime this year and I love the little thing! My wife tells me that the Suzuki Alto is so small that it will turn turtle when it reaches hi-speed and gets side sweeped when passed by a big truck. Her personal preference is a bigger car, more specifically a pick up such as the Mitsubishi Estrada. God forbid that such unfortunate thing happens to me! Despite my wife's criticism of the Suzuki Alto, I still love driving it around. I've always loved small cars; in the auto industry they call such cars as “compact cars.” The reason why I love small cars is that they are easy to park, cheaper to maintain, cheaper to operate, cheap and affordable. Not all compact cars possess all of this quality though. For example, the Suzuki Swift which belongs to the compact car category which happens to be my first car is quite expensive, although I love the Swift's form factor which is much nicer than the Suzuki Alto. If I were to have it my way, I would love to … [Read more...]
Myartistsplace helps in raising smarter kids
Raising smarter kids is always in the mind of every parent whether they think about it consciously or unconsciously. I have in my desk a book on raising smarter kids entitled “Simulating your child’s intelligence.” The objective of the book is to define what intelligence is and to educate parents in raising smarter kids. There are a number of suggestions and many “how to” details in raising smarter kids, however something that caught my eye is the section on exposing your kids to arts and creativity. According to the book “All human senses can be simulated by art. Art teaches children to express themselves in a different way from speech. Through this they learn to study the world around them with a keener eye.” Exposing your children by enrolling them in classes with emphasis in any form of art will definitely be to their advantage. Myartistsplace.com is one such place wherein your child will be exposed to the arts. It is the prefect place for budding child actors, … [Read more...]
