Eating FRUITS

Dr Stephen Mak is a friend of mine at the BSF course. He told me he treats terminal ill cancer patients by “un-orthodox” way and many patients recovered. He explains to me before he is using solar energy to clear the illnesses of his patients.  He believes on natural healing in the body against illnesses. See the article below.   Thanks for the email on fruits and juices. It is one of the strategies to heal cancer. As of late, my success rate in curing cancer is about 80%. Cancer patients shouldn’t die. The cure for cancer is already found. It is whether you believe it or not? I am sorry for the hundreds of cancer patients who die under the conventional treatments.. Very few can live for 5 years under the convenctional treatments and most live for only about 2 to 3 years. The conventional treatments do not make any difference because most cancer patients also live for about 2 to 3 years without undergoing any treatment. It is difficult to cure those cancer patients  who have undergone chemo and radiotherapy as their cells are toxic and weak. When there is a relapse, the cancer will spread very fast as the resistance is poor. Thanks and God bless. Dr Stephen Mak EATING FRUIT…   It’s long but very informative ? We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it and just popping it into our mouths. It’s not as easy as you think. It’s important to know how and when to eat. ? What is the correct way of eating fruits? ? IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUITS AFTER YOUR MEALS! * FRUITS SHOULD BE EATEN ON AN EMPTY STOMACH. ? If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities. ? FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD. Let’s say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so. ? In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil…. ? So please eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your meals! You have heard people complaining — every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet, etc — actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrifying other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat! ? Graying hair , balding , nervous outburst , and dark circles under the eyes all these will NOT happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach. ? There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter. If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight. ? When you need to drink fruit juice – drink only fresh fruit juice, NOT from the cans. Don’t even drink juice that has been heated up. Don’t eat cooked fruits because you don’t get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins. ? But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice. If you should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it. You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body. Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look! ? KIWI: Tiny but mighty. This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, vitamin E & fiber. Its vitamin C content is twice that of an orange. ? APPLE: An apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhances the activity of vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke. ? STRAWBERRY: Protective Fruit. Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits & protect the body from cancer-causing, blood vessel-clogging free radicals. ? ORANGE : Sweetest medicine. Taking 2-4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as lessens the risk of colon cancer. ? WATERMELON: Coolest thirst quencher. Composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione, which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene — the cancer fighting oxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are vitamin C & Potassium. ? GUAVA & PAPAYA: Top awards for vitamin C. They are the clear winners for their high vitamin C content. Guava is also rich in fiber, which helps prevent constipation. Papaya is rich in carotene; this is good for your eyes. Drinking Cold water after a meal = Cancer! Can u believe this?? For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this ’sludge’ reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.

i dug a bunch of my old clothes from Japan which i dont wear anymore n found some t-shirts from uniqlo which i really really love for the comfy knit  fabric.

i took one border shirt that was quite old (bought on my 1st year) there were holes here n there, i dont think ill be wearing it again. so i decided to use the body parts to make ayra a pair of room pants.

this is the easiest project ive ever made, i  took barely 10 minutes to finish it. you can find the tutorial all over the internet. but unfortunately i cut the waist part a bit short , they became a low-rise pants LOL. maybe ill alter them later.

we went to ikea AGAIN yesterday just to get the daim cake- gila i know but we both were craving for it the whole week, mmg redah jugak hujan. (plus we had to collect another one leg of the highchair – didnt realised that they were only 3 of them  until we got home last weekend *slaps forehead*)

aanyway. when i was qeueing for the food , i noticed the three people standing right infront of me were either bap*ks or mak*nyahs.  i have nothing against this people but iiyy one of them was truuuelly manly looking , boroi n wearing a super short skirt n ballet flats(!) the three of the was laughing really loud like -mengilai  drawing attentions from people around them. ish why la kan whyy. dah tau korang tu LAIN dari yg LAIN, please stop mencapub in public! thank god i dont have a speaking toddler around at that time, or ill have to find explanations for “mommy, tu laki ke ppuan?” no?

i hate myself for being judgemental n evthing  but please stop making me one!

happy bday munchkin!

• can panjat tangga olready. oowhh this is her recent most favourite thing to do when we are @ tok ummi’s .(maklum lah, where got stairs @ own home mehh)

mee wubb duckyy!

mommy im 9 olredi, i know what im DOIN!

i dont bersila like mommy, im a LADY with attitude.

okay Ayra lets go to bed. papa has marking to do. nite nite

sewing iss soooo addictive!

we went to ikea whole day yesterday to buy a highchair for Ayra n apparently ikea doesnt provide free plastic bags anymore (u have to buy @RM0.10 /RM0.20 kalau tak silap.) thank god we brought my flip and tumble and n old reusable shopping bag  along.

we ended up buying 2 of the highchair (another one to be put @ tok ummis home in p*jaya -kantoi selalu pi dinner kehkeh)

i found that the highchair is soo boring so i decided to make a slip cover for it using some deco fabrics (also bought from ikea) and the leftover pink fleece. hubs had to spend the afternoon in the office marking papers, and since ayra was sleeping soundly, i had the time all for myself so i cut the fabrics n started to sew immediately. the cover is really easy to make, just cut the fabric according to the shape of the chair, sew around the edge both cotton n fleece right side together, leaving an opening and flip it over. itll look better if i topstitch around the edge but i was too lazy n i wonder if the old singer can handle the thickness, so i only topstitched the opening part. hoho

the unisex cover -bak kata kak ira (well planned aa? ekeke)

she now loves watching tv in the new highchair (n cover! )

owh and i also sewn in two small handmade straps to the seat part to tie it to the chair.

 

hmm i wonder whats my will next project be?

Watermarking Photos (Batch)

a good tips n tricks from photoshop911.

now tinggal rajin n malas onlylah. hehe

 

Gene from Texas, using Photoshop CS with windows on a Dell M60 PC, writes in with:
[Quote:] How do I put a watermark on all photos in a folder? If I have several photos from a wedding, and I want to put a studio name watermark across all of the photos before I burn them to CD for the bride to look at.
———————–
This is a very frequent question, and we’re working on a pictorial tutorial of this but there are several others ahead of it. For now, there is the step-by-step…

The Watermark

Start with a pencil and a note pad. Make a note of any settings as you go along. This will be a big help once we generate the action and droplette.

Next, open a typical photo image you’ll be watermarking.

If you haven’t already set up a logo or symbol for watermarking that’s okay, we’ll simply use type. If you have a logo for watermarking, then use it instead of the type. For most photos you will want the watermark to work in both light and dark situations, yet still have an amount of transparency so it allows the photo to be viewed clearly. So, we’ll have to introduce some white and some black. Additionally, we recommend a sans serif font to reduce the visual complexity of the mark.

Click new layer
Type in the watermark info as you wish it to appear.
Rasterize the type
Run the Emboss Filter, adjust settings to suite
Set the layer blending mode to “Hard Light” to let the image show through

This sets up the file and its attributes.

Choose: File > File Info

Key in the information you want attached to the file. Enter author’s name, business name and insert your URL if you have one. For the sake of automation, don’t insert any information that is pertinent to this specific file — you want generic, company information only.

Be sure to enter the copyright notice (c) 2004 and your business name. Use the Copyright symbol key. Make sure you select the Copyright Status and set “Copyrighted Work”

Click Okay and the info is added to the file.

Flatten the file.

Recording the Action

Next we’ll record the action. Of course you kept notes of all the settings for the file, right?

Move that file window to the side and open the next file.

Open the Actions Palette (Window > Actions)
Click the “New Action” button (next to the trash can.)
Name the action and select the Function key you want to activate the action.
(In lieu of this, you can simply run the action from the Actions Palette, but the F-key will be much more convenient.)

Now, are you ready? Click the “Record” button and it will glow red.
This means you are in record mode.

Now, walk through each step you took before. (Got notes?)
Be sure to select the font, size, leading, etc., exactly as before.

When done, click the STOP button. (Black Square)

Open a new photo and test the action by clicking on the “Run” button.
Did it work? What did you leave out?

Once it’s perfect, it’s ready to go.

From this point on, any time you want a watermarked photo, just run this action.

Batch Watermarking

If you have a whole folder you want Watermarked, proceed to the File Menu and
choose Automate > Batch.

In the resulting dialog is divided into four sections: Play, Source, Destination and Errors.

In the Play section pull down “Action” and select the Action you just created.

In the Source section, click the ‘Choose’ button and highlight the folder of files you want watermarked. (Hopefully you copied the folder, and will actually be watermarking copies of your files!)

In the Destination section choose “Save and Close”
If you wish to move the newly copied files to a new folder, click Choose… and find the folder.

Are you ready? Click “OK” and sit back. Have coffee. When you get back, your files
will be watermarked.

The most frequent mistakes made while cloth diapering

1) Underestimating Stash Size
I cannot stress enough how important stash size is. Whether using sized or one size diapers you MUST have enough diapers to not only last between washings, but also rotate your stash. We recommend enough diapers for 28-36 CHANGES. Even an AI2 system like Gro Baby requires 12 Shells, 24 Soaker pads for full time diapering. Any less than this means excessive wear and tear on your diapers that are being used on a daily basis. There is not a single other piece of clothing that gets used and washed as much as a cloth diaper, yet we expect them to last through many months or even years of use. Remember, the less often you have to wash your diapers and covers, the longer they will last. If you choose to diaper with a smaller stash plan on replacing your diapers every 6-9 months. Don’t expect one-size diapers (or sized diapers!) to last 2 years if you only have 6-12 in rotation!

2) Extreme Wash Routines
You’ve just invested a large amount of money in your baby’s diaper stash. Protect your investment by caring for them properly. I cannot count the number of customers who have destroyed their stash by “sanitizing” their diapers, washing them in bleach (or other whiteners), or simply not following the care labels on their diapers.

First step is to read the care labels on your diapers, just as you would any of your own clothing. If it says to wash on warm…wash on warm! A recommended hot wash by the manufacturer does NOT mean the “sanitize” cycle on your machine. Do not put additives in your wash cycles (even the natural ones like vinegar and baking soda). They are unnecessary and can be harmful to both your diapers and your baby’s skin. Lastly, and probably most important USE ENOUGH DETERGENT. The detergent and agitation of your wash cycle are what cleans your diapers. 1 Teaspoon – 2 tablespoons is simply NOT enough detergent to get your diapers clean. If your diapers smell….use more detergent! Very rarely is “buildup” the reason for smelly diapers.

3) Not Changing Often Enough
Cloth diapers are wonderful for many reasons. They are eco-friendly, healthy, and cost effective when compared to their disposable counterparts. Cloth diapers do not contain SAP (super absorbent polymer) gel, which is the component of disposable diapers that make them trim, yet so absorbent. The average disposable diaper can hold 10 pees before being changed. Whether you use disposables or cloth, your baby should be changed every 2 hours during the day. This keeps baby’s skin healthy and keeps those rare leaks at bay! When customers ask “How many hours can I leave my baby in your diaper before changing?” the answer is, “As soon as you notice they’re wet!!”.

4) Washing Once a Week (or less)
The quickest way to ruin a diaper is to leave it soiled in a closed, dark, warm pail for several days before washing it. This environment is prime breeding grounds for fungi, bacteria, and critters (yes, I’ve even heard maggot stories). Treat your diapers as you would your own lingerie. Soiled diapers should be washed every 2 days according to manufacturer’s instructions. If you have stains, hang them in the sun. Mother Nature knows what she’s doing. The sun naturally bleaches out stains, and kills bacteria and yeast. Best of all it doesn’t cost a dime and is chemical free!

5) One Size Does Not Mean…. Lasts Forever, Fits Everyone.
In the past 3-4 years we’ve seen a boom of one size diapers come onto the market. One size diapers have many advantages as they fit a broad size range and can often eliminate the need to buy multiple sizes of diapers. With this have come many unrealistic expectations. One size diapers are often made of the same materials as their sized counterparts. One size diapers are not able to withstand any more wear and laundering than sized diapers. If you diaper full time with a one size system and want them to last until potty learning, buy enough diapers (24-38 minimum). Babies come in different shapes and sizes and not every diaper, one size or not, is guaranteed to fit. Try one or two diapers before investing in an entire stash!

p/s – HAPPY 9 MONTHs AYRA DARLING!

aada few things yg aku nak tambah notes for reference those yg planning on visiting OZ,

kalau nak buat suma sendiri, (w/o travelling agency) ETA (visa) boleh buat sendiri thru online (have to own credit card tho) . AUD50 valid one year.

air asia x sucks if ure travelling with n infant unless you get the premium seats (KOT la) seats very sempit n keras. ayra refuse to sit all the way, end up l had to carry her on my lap for 5 hours. sakit pinggangg dohh. padahal ure paying 100 handling fee for infant. wth serupa macam tak bayar. they didnt assign us front seat (more space) or empty one seat next to us. padahal dekat belakang tu bersepahh seat kosong. sungguh tak considerate langsung. tp kalau travel berdua tu boleh je nak gaman.

itu je kot.
