Why do we want to look younger than we are?
When
we ask ourselves the question “why do we want to look younger” a whole variety
or reasons come to mind. They might
range from us thinking we are biologically
programmed to be more attracted to other people who portray youth, health, and
fertility to people being scared of getting their first wrinkles as to them it
is a sign of them getting old and losing their youthful looks.
Nobody wants
to get old but unfortunately it happens. We can however try and help ourselves
feel young on the outside which in turn may help you feel younger on the
inside. Avoiding looking in the mirror because you are scared of what will be
looking back at you will become a thing of the past.
If you’re in your twenties and thirties, you might notice
frown lines slowly developing, your eyelids may also slightly hood over your
eyes and your lips may no longer look as “full” as they once did. Don’t be
alarmed if there are fine lines developing when you smile, these are all just
small signs that your body is getting older.
If you’re approaching
fifty you may notice your eyebrows sagging, vertical neck bands developing and
mouth corners turning downwards. Add these three indicators to the ones above
and it is no wonder we start to loose confidence about our appearances when we
look in the mirror.
Our facial
muscles, which are attached directly to our skin, will lengthen as we age. Our
skin begins to follow the path of the muscles and over time will also start to
travel south. Although skin care products will never stop the time clock they
can help to plump, firm and smooth leaving your skin feeling softer and your
lines visibly reduced.
Our facial
muscles are most likely to stretch up to one-half inch by the time we are
fifty-five years old. This is why we see aging right before our eyes. Using
chemical peels and lasers may initially tighten the skin but it won’t be long
before you notice that the sagging has returned.
Surgery for
prolonging our youthful looks is drastic and can be expensive. Cutting
perfectly healthy tissue in the name of beauty has consequences; the skin is
forever changing and you just may not like the results.
Facial exercises that uses isometric with resistance movements will
systematically lift every area of your face and neck. Basically if you keep
smiling and keep those facial expressions in a northern direction you will help
to keep your skin looking younger. The exercises will refine, tone, curve and
firm your face so that the younger face you thought you had lost forever is
returned to you.

How to Feel Good About Yourself
Feeling good about your body is the most important factor behind feeling good about yourself. If you feel good about your body, you will look good and also feel good about your mind. You will even feel good about your personality. Assume you are dressed up for a party, and looking yourself at the mirror you say – “not bad”. This means you look good and you feel like praising yourself.
Feeling good about your body doesn’t require you to be slim and thin. You need to be fit and healthy to feel good about yourself. We all are beautiful within but we are often careless about our body fitness – as a result, we become obese or overweight by following unhealthy lifestyle and eating high calorie food.
Praise yourself
Praising yourself is most important to boost your self-esteem. Always think positive, be positive about what you do, and what you wear. Always get a positive body image. It will make you capable to accept the changing lifestyles.
Exercise and fitness
Regular exercise keeps you fit, change your appearance and let you feel good about your body. Exercise also reduces your stress, promotes strength, balance, flexibility and general posture and a general sense of well being. If you have scarcity of time, schedule your fitness program beforehand and commit this with seriousness as you do your business meeting.
Don’t stop eating
Food is a glorious and beautiful part of our life and eating food is one of the wonderful activities. But don’t do anything else while you are eating, since your foods deserve your full attention. However, you should not overeat. It often happens that we overeat while watching TV and eating. So stop watching TV at the time of eating. However, you should follow a healthy and nutritious diet. Avoid junk foods.
Maintain right weight
It is unhealthy to be too thin or too fat. It is also wrong if you are eating less food to become thin or eating more than your body requirement. You should have a balanced diet - eat the amount of food your body needs. You should keep a balance between the food you eat and the calories you use. If you eat more calories than you use, you cannot maintain your weight, and will soon become overweight. For example, you are eating more but spending your time in watching TV, reading storybooks. Then there is a chance of increasing weight. But if you spend your time in playing, skating or if you go for a walk, you will use more calories and that will keep a balance between what you eat and what you use – and you can maintain your body weight.
Friendship – good for your health
Friendship makes your whole life better, as you get support and companionship from good friends. They just not make you happy but also make your life beautiful and healthy. Researches have found that friendship has importance like regular exercise. If you have good friends you will experience less stress, will recover quickly from illness, and will even live longer than people who don’t have good friends.

Handy tips
Don’t get stuck in the snow
Keep a bag of cat litter in your car’s boot during winter. When stuck in the snow scatter it behind the traction wheels for traction.
Alternatively, when stuck, place the rubber mats from the car behind the traction wheels. They might just provide enough traction to get out of the snow.
Fish smell on hands
After working with raw fish, rub your hands with a mixture of vinegar, lemon juice and some salt. Then rinse the hands in warm water and then wash it normally. That will prevent the fishy smell from setting on your hands.
Blisters
Before putting on your training shoes for a workout, put a large blob of Vaseline over any area of your feet that regularly blisters.
Stuck in mud or sand
A hub-cap of your vehicle can be used as a spade if the car gets stuck in the mud or sand.

Dumb Criminals 4
Too Dumb to Be a Thief
The police had no trouble finding this thief. When he used a stolen credit card to buy some cigars, he signed his own name on the receipt. Later he tried to buy some merchandise at a store, but the card came up as stolen. When asked for some identification, he presented his own driver's license.
He Broke Into Where???
You really have to wonder about this one. Why would a thief break into a courthouse? I guess when you're drunk; your judgment is a little off, to say the least.
This guy pried open the sliding door to the courthouse and broke into the safe in the lobby. The only problem was that it's an antique safe and there was nothing in it. It was there only for display. In fact, it wasn't locked because the lock was broken.
He was caught when he again tried to pry open to door to get out. He was back inside the same courthouse a few hours later where he was arraigned on a charge of second degree burglary.
Sleeping Beauty
A man came home to his apartment to find the bedroom and kitchen cabinets had been rummaged. He also found the burglar asleep on the living room floor. When the police came and were able to wake him, he was so drunk that he thought he was in his own apartment.
Flubbed Escape
A man in New Hampshire was stopped at a sobriety checkpoint. After handing over his driver's license and registration, he floored the gas pedal and tried to make a getaway (almost running down a police officer). The police caught up with him and found marijuana in his car. He was charged with a DUI, drug possession, disobeying a police officer and reckless driving.
Just a Little Cat Nap
Police in Arizona responded to a burglar alarm at a gun and police accessories store in Prescott. They found a man inside, fast asleep. He'd apparently entered through a window and claimed that he was driving and got sleepy. He was just looking for a place to take a nap.
He was found with a flashlight, gloves and a bag which contained expensive electronics from the store. He also smelled of alcohol.
The police had a hard time believing his story, especially since there were several warrants out on him. He was arrested.

Techniques for Frying Meat
Here some tips to make frying of meat less messy and easier.
Oil free frying
When frying hamburger patties, sprinkle the pan lightly with salt instead of using cooking oil. The patties will fry in their own juices, without sticking to the pan.
Quick-frying of hamburgers
To cook hamburger patties quickly and evenly all over, make holes in the centre when shaping the patties. The holes will disappear as the meat cooks and swells.
Frying bacon
To stop bacon from curling, prick the frying pieces with a fork, or dip the strips in cold water before frying them.
Preventing spattering
Inverting a metal colander over a frying pan prevents fat from spattering the surrounding area, while allowing steam to escape. Remember to use oven gloves to handle the colander.
