PREVENT ALLERGIES |
At Home
-
Keep the
humidity in your house below 50% to prevent mold growth.
-
If
you have pets, consider keeping them outside or perhaps
ask someone else to take care of them. Animal
dander
and saliva are common allergens for many people. If you
must keep your pets indoors, do not allow them in the
bedroom and be sure to bathe them often.
-
Avoid areas
where molds may collect, including basements, garages,
crawl spaces, barns, and compost heaps. Have someone else
clean these areas often.
-
Air out
damp clothes and shoes (in the house) before storing.
-
Remove
laundry from the washing machine promptly. Don't leave wet
clothes in the washer where mold can quickly grow.
-
Wash shower
curtains and bathroom tiles with mold-killing solutions.
-
Don't
collect too many indoor plants as soil encourages mold
growth.
-
Use plastic
covers for pillows, mattresses, and box springs. Avoid
overstuffed furniture and down-filled bedding or pillows.
-
Wash your
bedding every week in hot water.
-
Don't allow
smoking in your house.
-
Wear a mask
and gloves when cleaning, vacuuming, or painting to limit
dust and chemical exposure.
-
Vacuum
twice a week.
-
Limit throw
rugs to reduce dust and mold. If you do have rugs, make
sure they are washable.
-
When
possible, choose hardwood floors instead of carpeting. If
you must have carpeting, choose low-pile material.
-
Avoid
dust-collecting Venetian blinds or long drapes. Replace
old drapes with window shades instead.
-
Make sure
there is an exhaust fan over the stove to remove cooking
fumes.

HEAT PREVENTION
TIPS
Drink more fluids, regardless of your activity level. Don’t
wait until you’re thirsty to drink.
Warning: If your doctor generally limits the
amount of fluid you drink or has you on water pills, ask him
how much you should drink while the weather is hot.
Don’t drink liquids that contain caffeine, alcohol, or large
amounts of sugar–these actually cause you to lose more body
fluid. Also, avoid very cold drinks, because they can cause
stomach cramps.
Stay indoors and, if at all possible, stay in an
air-conditioned place. If your home does not have air
conditioning, go to the shopping mall a few hours spent in air
conditioning can help your body stay cooler when you go back
into the heat. Electric fans may provide comfort, but when the
temperature is in the high 40s, fans will not prevent
heat-related illness. Taking a cool shower or bath, or moving
to an air-conditioned place is a much better way to cool off.
Wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing.
NEVER leave
anyone in a closed, parked vehicle.
Although any one at any time can suffer from heat-related
illness, some people are at greater risk than others. Check
regularly on:
Infants and young children
People aged 65 or older
People who have a mental illness
Those who are physically ill, especially with heart disease or
high blood pressure
Visit adults at risk at least twice a day and closely watch
them for signs of heat exhaustion or heat stroke. Infants and
young children, of course, need much more frequent watching.

15 TOP TIPS
When buy a new family
PC |
|
1. How
much are you willing to spend?
2. Are you willing to spend a little more for what you
want or is your budget strict?
3. What do you need the computer for?
4. What packages/specifications do you need?
(accompanies answer 3)
5. What size screen do you want/need?
6. Will the PC be used for work? 7. Do you need a new
printer also?
8. Find out the best places to get good advice ask
friends and see who they recommend.
9. Make sure that the rep in the shop or showroom knows
what they are talking about. Subtly test him/her on
questions you know the answers to or make mistakes and
see if they correct you. If you are unsure, ask to speak
to a trained sales rep.
10. Go thorough slowly exactly what is included in the
deal you are considering. Many customers believe that
have found a bargain only to find that the monitor
wasn't included.
11. Take full details of any helpline numbers or contact
addresses incase anything goes wrong with your PC.
12. Shop around. Compare prices with rival shops and try
to price match with them (if you see a lower price for
the same machine ask if the more expensive shop will
price match).
13. If there is a friend also looking for a new PC take
him along to the shops. If you both find PCs in the same
shop ask for a discount there is no harm in asking and
you could be a few hundred pounds better off.
14. Make sure the company is reputable. If it is a new
shop ask around to see if anyone has had any problems
with them.
15. If you are buying other items in the shop (i.e.
printer, paper, software, cartridges, scanner etc) ask
for some sort of discount. If they don't oblige go
somewhere else. |

REIKI -
Natural Healing
True health
is a state of vibrant energy. When this energy is low, you do
not experience good health and medical illnesses result. A
Reiki session supplies the body with additional energy and
helps the body ‘heal’. Healing occurs on two levels: On one
level, healing occurs when the physical body is cured of the
particular medical condition. On a more profound level,
healing occurs when the recipient steps back, sees the root of
the problem, recognizes the pattern, prepares for change and
then willingly ‘leaves’ the destructive habit. Reiki cannot
help a person who does not want to help himself or be helped.
Today we are viewing the Seventh and the final Energy Center
of the body. It is located on the top of the head and governs
our ‘spiritual connection with God’. The physical dysfunctions
associated with this center are: diseases of the muscular and
skeletal system, skin problems, lack of energy, chronic
exhaustion, extreme sensitivity to sound, light and other
environmental factors, etc. The underlying issues can be of
values, ethics, faith, devotion, spirituality,
humanitarianism, selflessness, inspiration, personal identity,
and purpose in life. Giving Reiki to this energy center helps
in identifying and healing these issues.
In our forthcoming issues, we shall be dealing with a new
modality of natural healing, called ‘Aromatherapy’.
For Reiki/Aromatherapy sessions, please contact Lamees at
0506463801 or email:
lamees@kfshrc.edu.sa 10% discount for CP members. 15%
discount on this month’s special “Aroma Oil For Dark Under
Eye Circles” for CP members.

Determined action…
Those who actually solve
problems spend very little time complaining about them. Problems are turned
into opportunities not by complaining or blaming or endless analysis, but by
thoughtful and determined action.
When you're busy solving a problem you're working to transform it from a
negative to a positive. When you merely complain, then you're investing
yourself in perpetuating the negativity of that problem.
Complaining is easy, and it usually just worsens the situation. Taking
positive action is indeed the more challenging course, for it involves
effort and commitment.
Taking action requires you to make real-life decisions, to look at the
tradeoffs and to weigh the value of different options. When you take action,
you must be willing to put yourself on the line.
For the results are not going to be perfect, and there is always the
possibility of failure. When that happens you learn from it and make
another, more informed, more determined effort.
Commit to taking thoughtful, persistent action. And it will take you where
you want to go.

OKARA
|
By S.A.J. Shirazi |
 The
first thought that came into my mind on posting to
Okara can be described by four words: milk, butter,
mammals and farms. Peers also told me the same.
Besides Harappan ruins, I did not know the area. But
one thing I did know, though, was that I should be
happy to say goodbye to the place.

In ALLAH We Trust
Assalam-O-Alikum,
Folks…how is life treating you? … We hope and pray that all is
well at your end.
For the newsletter this time, I am touching something that we
all believe in but it is only on our lips and not in our
actions.
Trust or faith in God is a key ingredient of our life. We all
trust and believe in Allah Almighty with all His qualities. He
is Supreme, The most Beneficial and the most Merciful, Creator
of all. Trust in Allah means we trust him for absolutely
everything!
Our actions are driven by our faith. So the matter is not
simply about just believing a set of facts about God. Rather
it is far more than that. It is believing that everything
happens by the will of Allah, and nothing can take place
against His will. And this belief triggers us to abide by His
laws under all circumstances, everywhere and always. There are
no “Buts” and “Ifs” to this. Trusting Allah means he is ahead
of everything. We have to strive for His agreement in all our
matters. When we trust him, we believe he knows what is best
for us and we should always do what pleases Him.
The story of Hazrat Ibrahim(peace be upon him) is known to all
of us. Namrood threw Hazrat Ibrahim in blazing fire for not
believing him as god. He was the king of that time and claimed
to be the god. He wanted every one to worship him and bow in
front of him. Hazrat Ibrahim had trust in Allah and knew that
His Allah will save him. And on Allah’s order the fire became
pleasantly cool for him. When asked later, Hazrat Ibrahim said
that the days he spent in that fire were the best days of his
life.
When Hazrat Musa (peace be upon him) was crossing the river
with his twelve believer tribes, they were not drowned because
Allah took away the power to drown from water and paths were
created in water for them, but when Firoun and his
nonbelievers companions stepped in the same river chasing Musa
and his fellows, the ability of water to drown was restored
and the non-believers were all drowned. The Holy Quran
narrates these stories so that our trust in Allah gets strong.
Allah is the creator of all things. It is He who has put
strengths and abilities in His creations. The power in fire to
burn, in wind to blow, in knife to cut, in water to drown and
in sun to shine is because Allah has blessed them with these
forces.
Let us understand this through an example. Imagine that a
person comes from a far-flung deserted area to a city with
proper water supply systems. He sees water coming from taps
and thinks that it is tap giving water and ignores the fact
that there is a whole system of network of pipes that are
coming from a water reservoir that is hidden from his eyes.
Today we humans are acting like this ignorant villager. Allah
is the one who gives and the way through which His blessings
reach us can be any. Our eyes can only see the sources through
which we get the things but the hidden power behind all these
sources is of Allah. Food cannot satisfy our hunger without
His orders, water cannot satisfy our thirst without His orders
and medicine cannot bring cure to a patient if He does not
wish so. This is called “belief” and this is what we have to
learn to succeed in this life and the life after death. Once
this belief is right all our acts will be right too.
So dear fellows, trust in God and put your words into actions.
Allah will InshAllah bless you here and hereafter with His
Agreement.
