மூளையைப் பாதிக்கும் 10 பழக்கங்கள்

1. காலையில் உணவு உண்ணாமல் இருப்பது.

காலையில் உணவு உண்ணாமல் இருப்பவர்களுக்கு ரத்தத்தில் குறைவான அளவே சர்க்கரை இருக்கும். இது மூளைக்குத் தேவையான சக்தியையும் தேவையான ஊட்டச்சத்துக்களையும் கொடுக்காமல் ஆக்கி, மூளை அழிவுக்குக் காரணமாகும்.

2.மிக அதிகமாகச் சாப்பிடுவது

இது மூளையில் இருக்கும் ரத்த நாளங்கள் இறுகக் காரணமாகி, மூளையின் சக்தி குறைவுக்குக் காரணமாகும்.

3. புகை பிடித்தல்

மூளை சுருகவும், அல்ஸைமர்ஸ் வியாதி வருவதற்கும் காரணமாகிறது.

4.நிறைய சர்க்கரை சாப்பிடுதல்

நிறைய சர்க்கரை சாப்பிடுவது, புரோட்டின் நமது உடலில் சேர்வதைத் தடுக்கிறது. இதுவும்மூளை வளர்ச்சிக்கு பாதிப்பாகிறது.

5. மாசு நிறைந்த காற்று

மாசு நிறைந்த காற்றை சுவாசித்தல், நமக்குத் தேவையான ஆக்ஸிஜனை நாம் பெறுவதிலிருந்து தடை செய்கிறது. மூளைக்கு ஆக்ஸிஜன் செல்லாவிட்டால், மூளை பாதிப்படையும்.

6.தூக்கமின்மை

நல்ல தூக்கம் நம் மூளைக்கு ஓய்வு கொடுக்கும். வெகுகாலம் தேவையான அளவு தூங்காமலிருப்பது மூளைக்கு நீண்டகாலப் பாதிப்பை ஏற்படுத்தும்.

7. தலையை மூடிக்கொண்டு தூங்குவது

தலையை மூடிக்கொண்டு தூங்குவது, போர்வைக்குள் கரியமிலவாயு அதிகரிக்க வைக்கிறது. இது நீங்கள் சுவாசிக்கும் ஆக்ஸிஜனை குறைக்கிறது. குறைவான ஆக்ஸிஜன் மூளையைப் பாதிக்கிறது.

8.நோயுற்ற காலத்தில் மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பது

உடல் நோயுற்ற காலத்தில் மிக அதிகமாக மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பதும், தீவிரமாகப் படிப்பதும் மூளையைப் பாதிக்கும். உடல் சரியாக ஆனபின்னால், மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுப்பதே சிறந்தது.

9.மூளைக்கு வேலை கொடுக்கும் சிந்தனைகளை மேற்கொள்ளாமல் இருப்பது

மூளையை அதிகமாக உபயோகப்படுத்தும் சிந்தனைகளை மேற்கொள்வதால், மூளையில் புதுப்புது இணைப்புகள் உருவாகின்றன. அதனால், மூளை வலிமையான உறுப்பாக ஆகிறது.

10. பேசாமல் இருப்பது.

அறிவுப்பூர்வமான உரையாடல்களை மேற்கொள்வது மூளையின் வலிமையை அதிகரிக்கிறது.

Configure a USB flash drive to be a Windows 7 installation platform

In order to employ this technique you’ll need a USB flash drive that is big enough to hold the contents of the Windows 7 DVD. The Windows 7 RC DVD is about 2.5GB and you can expect that the RTM DVD to be at least that if not more. For my test system I am using a 4GB USB flash drive.

Keep in mind that the procedure we will use will completely reformat the USB flash drive. So you want to make sure that you backup any data that you have on the drive before you begin.

The systems on which you want to install Windows 7 via the USB flash drive have to be able to be configured to boot from a USB drive. Most new systems have the capability to boot from a USB flash drive and the operation can usually be configured in the BIOS or by simply pressing a certain key during boot up. You’ll need to check your specific hardware in order to be sure.

Using the DiskPart utility

As you may know, the DiskPart utility is a command line version of the Disk Management snap-in and is designed to allow you to manage disks, partitions, or volumes from within scripts or directly from a command prompt. We can use the DiskPart command to configure a USB flash drive to be a bootable device. Let’s take a closer look.

To begin, connect your USB flash drive to a computer on which you will be preparing the drive. For my example, I’ll be using a Windows Vista system.

Now, locate the command Prompt shortcut on the Start menu, right click on it, and select the Run as administrator command. Then, respond appropriately to the UAC. You can now launch the DiskPart utility by typing DiskPart on the command line. You’ll then see the DISKPART prompt, as shown in Figure A.

Figure A

DiskPart has its own command line environment complete with a special prompt.

Now that you’re in the DiskPart environment, you’ll need to locate the USB flash drive using the List Disk command. As you can see in Figure B, the List Disk command has identified my USB flash drive as Disk 5. I can verify that my USB flash drive is indeed Disk 5 by checking the Size column, which lists the size as 3906MB, which is roughly 4GB.

Figure B

Using the List Disk command displays all the disks in the system.

(If you have difficulty identifying your USB flash drive using the List Disk command, you can try the List Volume command, which will provide the drive letter as well as the label, both of which can help you to identify the drive.)

Once you identify the drive number of your USB flash drive, you will need to set the focus of the DiskPart environment on that disk. On my example, the USB flash drive is Disk 5, so I will use the command Select Disk 5, as shown in Figure C.

Figure C

To shift the focus over to the USB flash drive you’ll use the Select Disk command.

Now that your USB flash drive has the focus, you need to remove all the partition or volume formatting information from the disk. To do that, you’ll use the Clean command. The Clean operation should occur rather quickly. When it is done you will see a success message like the one shown in Figure D.

Figure D

In order to start with a clean slate you’ll use the Clean command to remove all partition and volume information from the USB flash drive.

You’ll now use the Create Partition Primary command to create a primary partition on the disk. After you create the partition, you will see a success message and the focus automatically shifts to the new partition. You’ll use the Active command to mark the partition as active, as shown in Figure E. Marking the partition as active will essentially allow the BIOS to recognize that the partition is a valid bootable system partition.

Figure E

Using the Create Partition Primary and the Active commands, you’ll create a bootable partition on the USB flash drive.

With the partition created and active, you’re now ready to quick format the drive and set up the FAT32 file system using the Format fs=FAT32 quick command. (While you could format the drive as NTFS, the typical way to format a USB flash drive is to use FAT32.) Once the drive is formatted, you’ll use the Assign command, as shown in Figure F, to allow the drive to be assigned a drive letter.

Figure F

To complete the preparation, you’ll format the drive and assign it a drive letter.

The USB flash drive is now ready. At this point, you can use the Exit command to exit the DiskPart environment and then close the Command Prompt window.

Copying the Windows 7 files

Copying the Windows 7 files is easy. Just open Windows Explorer, access the Windows 7 DVD, select all the files and folders, and then drag and drop them on the USB flash drive icon, as shown in Figure G. Keep in mind that the copy operation will take a little while to complete.

Figure G

Once the USB flash drive is ready to go, you can copy all the files and folders from the Windows 7 DVD to the newly prepared bootable drive.

Installing Windows 7 from the USB flash drive

With the contents of the Windows 7 DVD on a bootable USB flash drive, installing the operating system is a snap. Just boot the system from the USB drive and the installation procedure will begin as it normally would as shown in Figure H. However, the installation procedure will actually run quicker off of a USB flash drive since it doesn’t contain any physical moving components.

Figure H

Once the system boots from the USB flash drive, the Windows 7 installation will begin as normal, but it will actually run faster.

How to remove shortcut arrows from desktop icons in Windows XP

Just follow the simple steps below to remove the arrow:

1. Start regedit.
2. Navigate to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/lnkfile
3. Delete the IsShortcut registry value.

You may need to restart Windows XP for the changes to take affect.

Nose Breathing Therapy...

The nose has a left and a right side; we use both to inhale and exhale. Actually they are different; you would be able to feel the difference. The right side represents the sun, left side represents the moon...

During a headache, try to close your right nose and use your left nose to breathe.
In about 5 minutes, your headache will be gone.

If you feel tired, just reverse, close your left nose and breathe through your right nose.
After a while, you will feel your mind is refreshed.

Right side belongs to ‘hot’, so it gets heated up easily, left side belongs to ‘cold’.
Most females breathe with their left noses, so they get “cooled off” faster.
Most of the guys breathe with their right noses, they get worked up.

Do you notice the moment we wake up, which side breathes faster? Left or Right?
If left is faster, you will feel tired. So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will get refreshed quickly.


This can be taught to kids, but it is more effective when practiced by adults.

Top Ten Foods For a Good night's Sleep......

The secret to getting a solid 7 to 8 hours? About 90 minutes before you want to nod off, head for the kitchen and make yourself a sleepy-time snack.
Keep it light (around 200 calories), so you don’t overload your digestive system. And include one or two foods from the list below.
All help to relax tense muscles, quiet buzzing minds, and/or get calming, sleep-inducing hormones -- serotonin and melatonin -- flowing. Yawning yet?


1. Bananas --
They’re practically a sleeping pill in a peel. In addition to a bit of soothing melatonin and serotonin, bananas contain magnesium, a muscle relaxant.


2. Chamomile tea --
Chamomile is a staple of bedtime tea blends because of its mild sedating effect, which makes it the perfect natural antidote for restless minds and bodies.


3. Warm milk --
It’s not a myth. Milk has some tryptophan, an amino acid that has a sedative-like effect, and calcium, which helps the brain use tryptophan. Plus, there’s the psychological throwback to infancy, when a warm bottle meant "relax, everything’s fine."


4. Honey --
Drizzle a little in your warm milk or herb tea. Lots of sugar is stimulating, but a little glucose tells your brain to turn off orexin, a recently discovered neurotransmitter that’s linked to alertness.
5. Potatoes -- A small baked spud won’t overwhelm your gastrointestinal tract as it clears away acids that can interfere with yawn-inducing tryptophan. To up the soothing effect, mash the potato with warm milk.


6. Oatmeal --

Oats are a rich source of sleep-inviting melatonin, and a small bowl of warm cereal with a splash of maple syrup is cozy -- and if you’ve got the munchies, it’s filling, too.


7. Almonds --

A handful of these heart-healthy nuts can send you snoozing because they contain both tryptophan and a nice dose of muscle-relaxing magnesium.


8. Flaxseeds --
When life goes awry, and feeling down is keeping you up, try sprinkling 2 tablespoons of these healthy little seeds on your bedtime oatmeal. They’re rich in omega-3 fatty acids, a natural mood lifter.


9. Whole-wheat bread --
A slice of toast with your tea and honey will release insulin, which helps tryptophan get to your brain, where it’s converted to serotonin and quietly murmurs "time to sleep."


10. Turkey --
It’s the best-known source of tryptophan, credited with all those Thanksgiving naps. But that’s actually modern folklore. Tryptophan works when your stomach’s basically empty rather than overstuffed and when there are some carbs around rather than tons of protein. But put a lean slice or two on some whole-wheat bread midevening and you’ve got one of the best sleep-inducers in your kitchen.

How To Double Firefox Speed

Some Tips&Tricks that can help you double the speed of Firefox.

1. Type about:config in the address bar and then press Enter.

2. In the filter search bar type network.http.pipelining. Be sure the value field is set true,if not double-click to set true. HTTP is the application-layer protocol that most web pages are transferred with. In HTTP 1.1, multiple requests can be sent before any responses are received. This is known as pipelining. Pipelining reduces page loading times, but not all servers support it.

3. Go back to the filter search bar and type network.http.pipelining.maxrequests Double-click this option and set its value to 8.

4. In the filter search bar and type network.http.proxy.pipelining. Once opened doubleclick on it and set it to true.

5. In IPv6-capable DNS servers, an IPv4 address may be returned when an IPv6 address is requested. It is possible for Mozilla to recover from this misinformation, but a significant delay is introduced.
Type network.dns.disableIPv6 in the filter search bar and set this option to true by double clicking on it.

6. CONTENT INTERRUPT PARSING
This preference controls if the application will interrupt parsing a page to respond to UI events. It does not exist by default. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window, select New and then Boolean from the pop-up menu. Then:
A. Enter content.interrupt.parsing in the New boolean value pop-up window and click OK
B. When prompted to choose the value for the new boolean, select true and click OK.

7. Rather than wait until a page has completely downloaded to display it to the user, Mozilla applications will regularly render what has been received to that point. This option controls the maximum amount of time the application will be unresponsive while rendering pages. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window, select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Enter content.max.tokenizing.time in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 2250000 and click OK.

8. CONTENT NOTIFY INTERVAL
This option sets the minimum amount of time to wait between reflows. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window, select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Type content.notify.interval in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK.
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 750000 and click OK.

9. CONTENT NOTIFY ONTIMER
A. This option sets if to reflow pages at an interval any higher than that specified by content.notify.interval. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window and select New and then Boolean from the pop-up menu.
B. Type content.notify.ontimer in the New boolean value pop-up window and click OK.
C. You will be prompted to choose the value for the new boolean. Select true and click OK.

10. Notify Backoffcount
This option controls the maximum number of times the content will do timer-based reflows. After this number has been reached, the page will only reflow once it is finished downloading. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window and select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Enter content.notify.backoffcount in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK.
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 5 and click OK.

11. CONTENT SWITCH THRESHOLD
You can interact with a loading page when content.interrupt.parsing is set to true. When a page is loading, the application has two modes: a high frequency interrupt mode and a low frequency interrupt mode. The first one interrupts the parser more frequently to allow for greater UI responsiveness during page load.
The low frequency interrupt mode interrupts the parser less frequently to allow for quicker page load. The application enters high frequency interrupt mode when you move the mouse or type on the keyboard and switch back to low frequency mode when you had no activity for a certain amount of time. This preference controls that amount of time. Right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window and select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Enter content.switch.threshold in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK.
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 750000 and click OK.

12. NGLAYOUT INITIALPAINT DELAY
Mozilla applications render web pages incrementally, they display what’s been received
of a page before the entire page has been downloaded. Since the start of a web page
normally doesn’t have much useful information to display, Mozilla applications will wait
a short interval before first rendering a page. This preference controls that interval. Rightclick (Apple users ctrl-click) anywhere in the about:config window and select New and then Integer from the pop-up menu.
A. Enter nglayout.initialpaint.delay in the New integer value pop-up window and click OK.
B. You will be prompted to enter a value. Enter 0 and click OK.

Tweak Windows Vista's Logon screen to meet your needs

Before you begin editing, keep in mind that the Windows Registry is vital to the operating system. Before editing the Windows Registry, you should take a few moments to back it up for safekeeping.

To begin, click the Start button, type Regedit in the Start Search box, and then press [Enter]. When you do, you’ll encounter a UAC and will need to respond accordingly.

Once the Registry Editor launches, locate the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

From this key, you’ll be able to make all the following changes to the Logon screen.

Removing the shutdown button

When you are viewing the Vista Logon screen, you’ll notice that there is a red shutdown button on the lower right part of the screen, as shown in Figure A.

Figure A

There’s a large, red shutdown button on the lower right part of the Logon screen.

To remove the shutdown button from the Logon screen, locate and double-click the shutdownwithoutlogon value. When the Edit DWORD dialog box appears, simply type 0 in the Value Data text box, as shown in Figure B, and click OK.

Figure B

To remove the shutdown button from the Logon screen, set the shutdown without logon value to 0.

The next time you see the Logon screen you’ll notice that the red shutdown button is gone, as shown in Figure C.

Figure C

The large, red shutdown button is gone.

(Now, if I could only figure out a way to remove the Ease of Access button from the Logon screen. Any ideas?)

Adding a legal notice to the Logon screen

If you want to back up the Vista Logon security system, you may want to add a warning message to the screen that is designed to act as a deterrent to anyone thinking of attempting unauthorized access. While this type of measure doesn’t add any real protection to the system, it might be all that’s needed to prevent an unauthorized user from proceeding.

To add a title to the warning message, locate and double-click the legalnoticecaption value. When the Edit DWORD dialog box appears, type the title in the Value Data text box, as shown in Figure D, and click OK.

Figure D

The legalnoticecaption value allows you to specify a title for your warning message.

To add the warning message, locate and double-click the legalnoticetext value. When the Edit DWORD dialog box appears, type the warning message in the Value Data text box, as shown in Figure E, and click OK.

Figure E

You can type a lot of text into the legalnoticetext value.

Now when you access the Logon screen, you’ll see your warning message. Just click OK and you’ll see your user icon and can continue with the logon operation.

Tracking logons

If you want to be able to keep track of logons that were made on your system, you can configure the Logon screen to display logon statistics. Right-click anywhere inside the System key and select New | DWORD (32-bit) Value. When the new value appears, type DisplayLastLogonInfo and then press Enter twice. When the Edit DWORD dialog box appears, simply type 1 in the Value Data text box, as shown in Figure F, and click OK.

Figure F

If you want to be able to keep track of logons that were made on your system, set the DisplayLastLogonInfo value to 1.

Now when you select your user icon on the Logon screen, you’ll see the logon statistics, as shown in Figure G. Just click OK to complete the logon operation.

Figure G

After you click your user icon, you’ll see the logon statistics on the Logon screen.

Rein in the unbound storage appetite of Vista System Restore

I recently noticed that the hard disk on one of the Microsoft Windows Vista test systems that I use quite regularly began to fill up. This seemed odd to me because while I have a lot of data on the disk, the majority of it just test data (i.e. data that I copy over from my real system just so I have something to work with). I don’t really generate much, if any, data on that system. As such, I was a bit confused as to where all the disk space was going.

Using My Computer and a couple of third-party disk space analyzers just for good measure, I discovered that I could not reconcile the disk space usage. The system has a 120GB hard disk in it, and I could account for only about 80GB of data and installed applications. So why was the system displaying a low disk space warning message?

I immediately ran the Disk Cleanup tool and set about emptying and removing just about anything that could be using up disk space: the Recycle Bin, temporary Internet files, dump files, thumbnails, log files, temp files, error report files, and downloaded program files.

That seemed to help for a while, but the problem cropped up again.

After a bit more investigation, I discovered that the problem was being caused by a configuration problem with Vista’s System Restore feature.

In this edition of the Microsoft Windows Vista & Windows 7 Report, I’ll show you what I discovered and how you can fix it. As I do, I’ll also explain how to use the Volume Shadow Copy Service Administration command-line tool, VSSAdmin.

How System Restore works

Before we get started on the technique, let’s begin with a brief overview of how System Restore works.

System Restore is designed to take snapshots, called restore points, of your system state before certain types of operations, such as installing new drivers or installing Windows updates, are initiated. That way if a problem results from those types of operations, you can revert back to the restore point and essentially recover, or restore, your system to the state that it was in before the problem occurred.

These snapshots are taken by the Volume Shadow Copy Service. In addition to taking care of creating the restore points, the Volume Shadow Copy Service also monitors data files for the Previous Versions feature.

Using VSSAdmin

In order to manage the Volume Shadow Copy Service and ultimately System Restore, you’ll use the VSSAdmin command-line tool — there is no GUI tool in Vista for configuring System Restore. In order to run VSSAdmin, you must launch an elevated Command Prompt window.

To begin, right-click on the Command Prompt shortcut and select the Run as Administrator command. When you encounter the UAC, you will need to respond appropriately.

You can now use the VSSAdmin command-line tool to investigate and configure System Restore and the Shadow Copy Service. For example, you can obtain a list of all the restore points currently saved on the system by using the command:

vssadmin list shadows

You can see how much disk space is allocated to and used by System Restore and the Shadow Copy Service system by using the command:

vssadmin list shadowstorage

The investigation

On the Vista system that was running out of disk space, the result of the vssadmin list shadowstorage command is shown in Figure A. As you can see the Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space settings was set to Unbounded, which means that there is no limit to the size it can grow and it was already at 40GB.

Figure A
The Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space setting on the problem system was set to Unbounded.

On another Vista test system, running on an 80MB hard disk, the Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space setting was set to 11 GB, as shown in Figure B. This was a much more reasonable value. Why the value on one of my test systems was set to unbounded while the others had specific maximum values, I’m not sure.

Figure B

The Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space setting on another system was set to 11GB.

The solution

You can reset the value of the Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space setting using the command:

vssadmin resize shadowstorage /for= /on= [/maxsize=

On my problem system, I reset the Maximum Shadow Copy Storage space setting to 15GB using the command:

vssadmin resize shadowstorage /for=c: /on=c: /maxsize=15GB

Once the operation was complete, I restarted the system, and everything has been running normally since.

காலை உணவை தவிப்பது நல்லதா?

நம்மில் பலரிடம் இருக்கும் பழக்கங்களில் ஒன்று, காலையில் எதையும் சாப்பிடாமல் இருப்பது. இதனால் உடலுக்கு நன்மை ஏதேனும் உண்டா?

காலை உணவை சாப்பிடாதவர்களைக் காரணம் கேட்டால், உடல் எடையைக் கட்டுக்குள் வைத்துக் கொள்ள சாப்பிடுவதில்லை என்கிறார்கள்.

அவசர அவசரமாக பள்ளி, கல்லூரிக்குப் புறப்படும் மாணவர்கள், வேலைக்குச் செல்வோர்கள், குடும்பத்தினருக்குப் பணிவிடை செய்யும் இல்லத்தரசிகள் என்று பல தரப்பினரும் 'காலை உணவு' விஷயத்தில் அலட்சியம் காட்டுகின்றனர்.

நேரமின்மையால், காலை உணவை தவிர்த்துவிட்டு செல்பவர்கள் மிகுந்த இன்னலுக்கு ஆளாவார்கள் என்று எச்சரிக்கின்றனர், மருத்துவர்களும் உணவியல் நிபுணர்களும்.

இரவு முழுவதும் வயிறு காலியாக இருப்பதால், உடலுக்கு சக்தியை அளிக்கும் க்ளுகோஸ்சின் அளவு குறைந்துவிடும். இதனை உடனடியாகத் திரும்பப் பெற காலை உணவு அவசியம்.

அவ்வாறு காலை உணவை உட்கொண்டால்தான், நாள் முழுவதும் உரிய சக்தியுடன், அசதியின்றி இயங்க முடியும்.'உடல் எடையைக் குறைப்பதற்காக காலை உணவைத் தவிர்ப்பதால் எடை கூடுமே தவிர, குறைவதில்லை என்பது அவர்களுக்குத் தெரிவதில்லை.

காலையில் உணவு உட்கொள்ளாததால் மதியம், இரவு நேரங்களில் பசி அதிகரிக்கும். இதனால் உட்கொள்ளும் உணவின் அளவும் அதிகரிக்கும். இதனால், கலோரி கூடி உடல் எடை அதிகரிக்க வழிவகுக்கும்.

எனவே, காலை உணவு விஷயத்தில் அலட்சியம் காட்டாமல் அவசியம் உண்ண வேண்டும் என்பதை நினைவி கொள்ளுங்கள்.

நினைவாற்றல் அதிகரிக்க...

எதையும் உடனடியாக நினைவில் வைத்துக் கொள்ள முடியாமல் மறதியால் அடிக்கடி சங்கடங்கள் உண்டாகிறதா? நினைவாற்றலை வளர்க்க இதோ குறிப்பு...

* நினைவாற்றல் பெருக துளசி இலையை தண்ணீரில் ஊற வைத்து அந்த நீரைக் குடிப்பது நல்லது.

* பசுமையான வில்வ இலைகளை அரைத்து சாறு எடுத்து குடித்து வந்தால் ஞாபக மறதி நீங்கி நினைவாற்றல் பெருகும்.

* தூதுவளை கீரையை குழம்பு மற்றும் பொரியல் செய்து வாரத்திற்கு ஒருமுறை சாப்பிட்டு வந்தால் மூளைக்கு வலிமை கிடைக்கும்.

* தலையை சாய்த்தால் மயக்கம் வருவதற்கு காரணம் காதில் ஏற்படும் பிரச்சனைதான். காது நரம்பு அல்லது காதில் உள்ள மூன்று சிற்றெலும்புகள் பாதிக்கப்பட்டிருப்பது போன்றவற்றால் தலையைச் சாய்க்கும்போது மயக்கம் வரக்கூடும்.

இதை அலட்சியப் படுத்தாமல் காது, மூக்கு, தொண்டை மருத்துவரை அணுகி ஆலோசனை பெறவும்.

தொல்லை நீக்கும் வெள்ளைப் பூண்டு

35 வயதை தாண்டிவிட்டாலே வாயுத்தொல்லை பாடாய் படுத்தும். இந்த தொல்லையை தீர்க்கும் அரிய குணம் வெள்ளைப்பூண்டுக்கு மட்டுமே உண்டு.

வெள்ளைப்பூண்டை அப்படியே உரித்து சாப்பிடலாம். இதன் காரம் போக்க மோர் அருந்தலாம்.

நெருப்பில் சுட்டு சாப்பிடும் பூண்டு, அதிக சுவையுடையதாக இருக்கும்.

உணவுக்கு பயன்படுத்தும் குழம்பில் வெள்ளைப் பூண்டு முக்கிய இடம் பிடிப்பதற்கு காரணமும் இதுவே.

பெண்களுக்கு ஊட்டம் கொடுக்கும் சத்துக்களும் பூண்டில் உண்டு. தாய்ப்பால் கொடுக்கும் பெண்கள் வெள்ளைப் பூண்டை சாப்பிட்டால், தாய்க்கு மட்டுமின்றி சேய்க்கும் நலம் தருகிறது பூண்டு.

What To Do When Software is not installing?

If you have a piece of software that refuses to install because it says that you are not running Windows 2000 (such as the Win2K drivers for a Mustek scanner!!) you can simply edit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/ProductName to say Microsoft Windows 2000 instead of XP and it will install. You may also have to edit the version number or build number, depending on how hard the program tries to verify that you are installing on the correct OS.

I had to do this for my Mustek 600 CP scanner (compatibility mode didn't' help!!!) and it worked great, so I now have my scanner working with XP (and a tech at Mustek can now eat his words).

BTW, don't' forget to restore any changes you make after you get your software installed

You do this at your own risk.
