9 Essential Health Tips
(The Basics to Practice Every Day) |
|
"He who has health has hope, and he who has hope has
everything." -Arabian Proverb |
1. Move More
Make it a daily challenge to find ways to move your body.
Climb stairs if given a choice between that and escalators
or elevators. Walk your dog; chase your kids; toss balls
with friends, mow the lawn. Anything that moves your limbs
is not only a fitness tool, it's a stress buster. Think
'move' in small increments of time. It doesn't have to be an
hour in the gym or a 45-minute aerobic dance class or tai
chi or kickboxing. But that's great when you're up to it.
Meanwhile, move more. Thought for the day: Cha, Cha, Cha….
Then do it!
2. Cut Fat
Avoid the obvious such as fried foods, burgers and other
fatty meats. Dairy products such as cheese, cottage cheese,
milk and cream should be eaten in low fat versions. Nuts and
sandwich meats, mayonnaise, margarine, butter and sauces
should be eaten in limited amounts. Most are available in
lower fat versions such as substitute butter, fat free
cheeses and mayonnaise. Thought for the day: Lean, mean,
fat-burning machine…. Then be one!
3. Quit Smoking
The jury is definitely in on this verdict. Ever since 1960
when the Surgeon General announced that smoking was harmful
to your health, Americans have been reducing their use of
tobacco products that kill. Just recently, we've seen a
surge in smoking in adolescents and teens. Could it be the
Hollywood influence? It seems the stars in every movie of
late smoke cigarettes. Beware. Warn your children of the
false romance or 'tough guy' stance of Hollywood smokers.
Thought for the day: Give up just one cigarette…. the next
one.
4. Reduce Stress
Easier said than done, stress busters come in many forms.
Some techniques recommended by experts are to think positive
thoughts. Spend 30 minutes a day doing something you like. (i.e.,Soak
in a hot tub; walk on the beach or in a park; read a good
book; visit a friend; play with your dog; listen to soothing
music; watch a funny movie. Get a massage, a facial or a
haircut. Meditate. Count to ten before losing your temper or
getting aggravated. Avoid difficult people when possible.
Thought for the day: When seeing red, think pink
clouds….then float on them.
5. Protect Yourself from Pollution
If you can't live in a smog-free environment, at least avoid
smoke-filled rooms, high traffic areas, breathing in highway
fumes and exercising near busy thoroughfares. Exercise
outside when the smog rating is low. Exercise indoors in air
conditioning when air quality is good. Plant lots of
shrubbery in your yard. It's a good pollution and dirt from
the street deterrent. Thought for the day: 'Smoke gets in
your eyes'…and your mouth, and your nose and your lungs as
do pollutants….hum the tune daily.
6. Wear Your Seat Belt
Statistics show that seat belts add to longevity and help
alleviate potential injuries in car crashes. Thought for the
day: Buckle down and buckle up.
7. Floss Your Teeth
Recent studies make a direct connection between longevity
and teeth flossing. Nobody knows exactly why. Perhaps it's
because people who floss tend to be more health conscious
than people who don't? Thought for the day: Floss and be
your body's boss.
8. Keep a Positive Mental Outlook
There's a definitive connection between living well and
healthfully and having a cheerful outlook on life. Thought
for the day: You can't be unhappy when you're smiling or
singing.
9. Choose Your Parents Well
The link between genetics and health is a powerful one. But
just because one or both of your parents died young in ill
health doesn't mean you cannot counteract the genetic pool
handed you. Thought for the day: Follow these basic tips for
healthy living and you can better control your own destiny.

Online Exit Re-Entry Facility is
Introduced in Saudi Arabia
It is the first e-service
in the Kingdom to fully satisfy all the conditions of
e-government services. It has been developed as feature in "Muqeem"
service that is provided by Al-Elm Information Security in
cooperation with the General Directorate of Passports.
More than three million
exit-reentry visas are issued annually in various provinces
in the Kingdom, which means that three million transactions
are started with a paper form, a photo, a certified
delegation letter, and a payment reseed. This transaction
will be handled by service officers to go through the
procedure in one of Passports branches to be submitted later
on to the beneficiary unless it is interrupted due to a
traffic violation or any other missing documents.
That all become a history
now !!
The issuance of an
exist-reentry visa through "Muqeem" service will take less
than two minutes and without the need for anybody to leave
his office. The new story goes as the following:
In The First Minute: The
delegated employee will pay for the visa electronically
through one of accredited banks websites.
In the Second Minute: The
delegated employee will access "Muqeem" website on the
Internet by entering his access credentials and he will
issue an exit-reentry visa.
After that, he will print
the visa at his office on regular printing paper and he will
attach it to the employee's passport. The expatriate
employee will receive his passport and head to the airport
with no worries.
This story might seem
unreal, but this is only for organizations that have not
subscribed to "Muqeem" yet !!

Top 10 Tips for Safe
Computing
You can reduce your vulnerability to identity fraud
by practicing safe computing - at home, at work, on the
road, and at wi-fi hotspots. This Quick Start guide lists
the most important safeguards, and links to complete
information on identity theft threats and how to protect
yourself.
- On any computer that connects to
the Internet: Install
comprehensive Internet protection. Identity thieves are
increasingly using malicious software, such as viruses and
spyware, to steal private data. You need protection against
viruses, spyware, Trojan horses, and worms, a firewall to
prevent your PC from sending data without your knowledge,
and some form of "live updating" to assure that your
protection stays current against constantly evolving
threats.
- On any Windows computer:
Make sure you have the latest security patches for your
Windows operating system and for your web browser. For
Windows XP, under the "Start" menu go to All programs >
Accessories > System Tools > Security Center. In the
"Resources" box, click "Check for the latest updates
from Windows Update."
- Don't use public computers
- such as those found at a hotel or airport - for any
kind of access where security is important - such as
your online banking, brokerage, or credit card accounts.
Public computers can easily be infected with keylogging
programs and other vulnerabilities. Remember that even
gaming passwords are a valuable and oft-stolen
commodity.
- For your laptop:
Your laptop faces the added security challenge of
connecting to the Internet from a variety of locations,
and of potentially being lost or stolen. In addition to
up-to-date security software, you should
password-protect access to the machine, and encrypt any
sensitive data.
- Set up the firewall
on your laptop to allow connections that you regularly
use - for example, to your Internet service provider.
But when you connect to a public network in less-secure
places, such as a public wi-fi hotspot, disallow all
exceptions except the ones you actually need to use.
- Create hard-to-crack
passwords for online
banking or other financial services, gaming, auctions,
and payment systems, and don't keep passwords accessible
on your computer. If you work in an office, or if other
people have access to your workspace, don't leave
passwords written down anywhere nearby. Never give your
password or other account information in response to a "phishing"
email, instant message, Internet pop-up, or phone call.
- On your wireless home network:
Password-protect your router and individual machines.
Don't settle for the default password that your router
comes with; create a unique strong password.
- Set your wireless network to
encrypt. Older home
wireless networks employ a technology known as Wireless
Equivalent Privacy (WEP) which offers limited protection
for private data. The newer Wi-Fi Protected Access is a
better choice.
- When you buy a
used/refurbished computer,
if the original operating system disks are included it's
a good idea to wipe the hard disk clean and start fresh
by reinstalling the software. If the system is running
an older operating system, consider upgrading to Windows
XP, which offers greatly enhanced security features. If
the system is running Windows XP, make sure you've
installed the latest security patches.
- Protect your physical data.
Most identity fraud still results from physical theft of
data. Secure your mailbox, and shred documents like bank
statements and credit card bills before you throw them
away. Report lost or stolen identity documents
immediately. Carefully examine your monthly bank and
credit card statements, check your credit report
annually and report any suspect activity immediately.
Prompt reporting minimizes the potential loss, reduces
the amount of time you'll spend correcting the problem,
and increases the chance that you'll be fully reimbursed
for any loss incurred.

Indian teachers
"purify" students with cow urine
Credit Reuters
MUMBAI: Indian teachers
sprinkled cow urine on low-caste students to purify them and
drive away evil, reports said, in a country where millions
of people remain oppressed at the bottom of the ancient
Hindu caste system.
Upper-caste headteacher Sharad Kaithade ordered the ritual
after taking over from a lower-caste predecessor at a school
in a remote village in the western state of Maharashtra
earlier this month, the Times of India reported.
He told an upper-caste colleague to spray cow urine in a
cleansing ceremony as the students were taking an
examination, wetting their faces and their answer sheets,
the newspaper said.
"She said you'll study well after getting purified," student
Rajat Washnik was quoted as saying by the CNN-IBN news
channel. Students said they felt humiliated.
Hinduism reveres the cow, and its dung is used in the
countryside as both a disinfectant and as fuel. In 2001,
Hindu nationalists promoted cow's urine as a cure for
ailments ranging from liver disease to obesity and even
cancer.
The newspaper said the two teachers were arrested after
angry parents complained to police. They have been released
on bail.
India's secular constitution bans caste discrimination, but
Dalits – those at the bottom of the caste system – are still
commonly beaten or killed for using a well or worshipping at
a temple reserved for upper castes, especially in rural
areas.
Dalits, once known as "untouchables", make up around 160
million of India's billion-plus population.
In February, the New York-based Human Rights Watch group
said India is failing to protect its lower-caste citizens,
who were condemned to a lifetime of abuse because of their
social status.

Loving What I have
Assalam-o-alikum,
Hello buddies. So finally the much awaited for summer
vacations have come!... Enjoy your holidays using them
wisely at the same time.
"Mommy, I want that new doll which my friend has", demanded
Rahma who already has about half a dozen dolls stacked in
her cupboard. When mother explains this to Rahma she
retorts, "…but I am not happy with them anymore. None of
them has the hair color that my friend's doll has." And then
we hear a teenager boy insisting his father to get him the
latest mobile just because the previous version does not
have camera."
Hear children complaining about the things that they already
posses and demanding new ones is a common sight. And such a
habit persists as they grow into adults. That is why we have
a society where we have more whiners and fewer admirers.
Dear friends, "Happiness is not having what you want, but
wanting what you have."
Who forces men and children alike to whine about what they
have and desire for things that other have? Perhaps, our
society. It does not let us feel content with what we have.
It is usually the people around who compel us to get what we
don’t have or might not even need. Isn’t it why we buy the
new and improved version? Are there better cars out there
than mine? Maybe. Even if there were and I had it, would
there then be a better one than that one? Probably. Because
there is always something better, fancier, faster, more
powerful, and more expensive. If it is not there already,
it will be coming soon. So does that mean I relentlessly
keep changing my car? Often the new thing has its own cons.
We get a program installed in our computer but it has bugs
to remove which we wait for an upgrade. The upgrade fixes
the older ones and brings in new ones.
While it is good and healthy to struggle for better, it is
equally important that we stay happy with what we have and
love them inspite of their bugs and faults. Also each of us
shall be pleased with what he/she is. If we imitate others,
we will lose our own identity and we cannot even become the
one whom we imitate.
|While our society has many who have many possessions, there
are very few people who are happier with what they do have.
Be happy and enjoy your yourself with what is yours and let
others be happy with what they have.
Ms. Amna Tariq Holy City of Makkah-Ul-Mukarrama
