We’re nearing completion in our Blackjack terms series. In our next to last series installment, we’ll go over some terms, such as “Money management,” “Paint” and “Push.” We start out with an important term, because it highlights how the Blackjack rules can be different from casino to casino. Las Vegas Strip Rules - Las Vegas is split into two main gambling regions-Downtown and the Strip. The Strip has different Blackjack rules than Downtown.

Overcoming Addiction - It’s As Difficult As You Think It Is

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

As a person who smoked a pack of cigarettes and choked down an average of twelve beers a day for more than 15 years, I think I may know a little something about addiction. Not only addiction, but overcoming addiction, because I walked away from both practices without the aid of gum, patches, meetings, or counselors. I’m not implying that there’s something wrong with getting help, I’m simply saying that for me the traditional kinds of help weren’t necessary. Whatever works to help individuals overcome addiction is a good thing, no matter what form it takes. My (Read more)

The Connection Between Acid Reflux And Sinus Problems

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

On the surface, heartburn and a stuffy nose might not seem related but there is recent evidence that suggests there may be a connection between acid reflux and sinus problems. If you acid reflux sometimes called GERD is a result of your stomach acids backing up into the esophagus. This happens because a little valve in between the esophagus and stomach isn’t functioning properly and is allowing the acids and food to back up. Your stomach acids are very strong but the stomach is made in such a way that he can easily handle the acids the esophagus, however, is not made to handle your (Read more)

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

It has been well known for a long time that excess weight can lead to high blood pressure, and that losing weight can lower your blood pressure, but until now it has been difficult to quantify the degree of risk. However, for more than twenty years now (since 1986) researchers have been monitoring the health a group of more than 22,000 doctors and, in one aspect of their research, have examined the relationship between weight and blood pressure in a sub-group of 13,563 male doctors whose blood pressure was normal at the start of the study.

Gardening for Wildlife - Biological Warfare for at Home and in the Gardens

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

It’s that time of year for the biting flies, skeeters and other insects. I discovered last year that a mixture of rubbing alcohol and pure mint oil keeps these pests at bay. I mixed 2 ounces of pure mint (from a health food store) with 14 ounces of rubbing alcohol.

I smell good and no harsh chemicals found in other sprays. The alcohol evaporates to nothing and the mint stays. Increase the formula to 25% mint and this kills off wasps in the (Read more)

If you lose your critical data tomorrow, it is unlikely that your practice would survive. Rubbish? Not according to the Globe and Mail, (Read more)
