Mgomo wa madaktari:Serikali yakunjua makucha

Waziri Mkuu Mizengo Pinda akizungumza jambo kwa mkazo hivi karibuni, Jana alitoa msimamo wa Serikali kuhusu mgomo wa Madaktari unaoendelea kushika kasi

PINDA ASEMA WASIORIPOTI LEO HAWANA KAZI, MADAKTARI WA JWTZ KUTOA HUDUMA DAR, WENYEWE WATISHIA KWENDA MAHAKAMANI
Waandishi Wetu
BAADA ya madaktari kugomea ombi la Waziri wa Mkuu, Mizengo Pinda kukutana nao jana ili kusikiliza madai yao na kuwasihi wasitishe mgomo, Serikali imetishia kuwafukuza kazi wote watakaoshindwa kuripoti kazini leo huku ikiiagiza Wizara ya Ulinzi na Jeshi la Kujenga Taifa, kupeleka madaktari wake katika hospitali za mikoa.

Mbali ya hatua hiyo, Serikali pia imepiga marufuku mikusanyiko yote ya madaktari hao na kuliagiza Jeshi la Polisi kuwasambaratisha popote watakapoonekana hatua ambayo imepingwa na madaktari hao ambao nao jana wametoa tamko wakisema watakwenda mahakamani kupinga agizo hilo.

Pinda alisema: “Katika hatua iliyofikiwa, Serikali imetambua kuwa madaktariwanaoongozwa na kamati ya mpito hawataki suluhu licha ya juhudi zote ambazo zimekuwa zikifanywa kuwaita ili kushughulikia madai yao. Kuanzia sasa Serikali inahimiza madaktari wote walio kwenye mgomo kuacha mara moja na kuripoti kazini ifikapo kesho asubuhi (leo), Januari 30, mwaka huu, ”alisema Waziri Mkuu na kuongeza:

“Watakaoshindwa kutekeleza agizo hilo watakuwa wamepoteza ajira zao. Serikali imeshachukua tahadhari za kukabiliana na hali hiyo kwa kuagiza Wizara ya Ulinzi na Jeshi la Kujenga Taifa kupeleka madaktari wake katika Hospitali za mkoa wa Dar es Salaam ili kusaidia wagonjwa walioko hospitalini.”

Madaktari nchini walianza mgomo wao Januari 16, mwaka huu wakitoa madai mbalimbali, ikiwemo kutaka kuongezewa mishahara, posho na kupatiwa nyumba za kuishi.

Januari 25, Pinda akizungumza na wahariri wa vyombo vya habari ofisini kwake aliwaangukia wanataaluma hao akisema alikuwa tayari kukutana nao wakati wowote lakini, madaktari hao waligoma na kutaka kiongozi huyo awafuate Ukumbi wa Starlight.

Jana, Waziri Mkuu akiwa katika mchakato huo wa kutafuta suluhu ili kunusuru maisha ya wagonjwa katika hospitali zilizokumbwa na mgomo, aliwaalika kukutana nao katika Ukumbi wa Karimjee lakini licha ya kufika hapo akiwa na jopo la mawaziri pamoja na viongozi wengine waandamizi wa Serikali, madaktari hao hawakutokea.

Waliokuwa wameambatana na Pinda tayari kwa mkutano huo ni Waziri wa Mambo ya Ndani ya Nchi, Shamsi Vuai Nahodha, Waziri wa Afya na Ustawi wa Jamii, Dk Haji Mponda, Naibu wake Dk Lucy Nkya, Waziri Nchi, Ofisi ya Rais Menejimenti ya Utumishi wa Umma, Hawa Ghasia, Katibu Mkuu Wizara ya Afya na Ustawi wa Jamii, Blandina Nyoni, Mganga Mkuu wa Serikali, Dk Deo Mtasiwa, na maofisa wengine waandamizi wa Serikali.

Mgomo palepale
Hata hivyo, licha ya onyo hilo la waziri mkuu madaktari hao jana jioni waliitisha kikao na kutoa msimamo kwamba mgomo wao uko palepale.

Mwenyekiti wa Jumuiya ya Madaktari, Dk Stephen Ulimboka alisema leo hawatafanya mkusanyiko wowote kutii amri ya Waziri Mkuu lakini, akasema watakwenda mahakamani kutaka amri hiyo itenguliwe.

Dk Ulimboka alisema kikatiba, Waziri Mkuu hana mamlaka ya kuzuia mikusanyiko halali ya wananchi hivyo, wataomba Mahakama itengue uamuzi huo huku akisisitiza kuwa mgomo wao uko palepale na kuwataka madaktari nchini kote kuendelea na msimamo huo wa pamoja.

Pinda ageuka mbogo
Akizungumza na waandishi wa habari baada ya kushindwa kukutana na madaktari hao jana, Pinda alisisitiza kwamba mgomo huo siyo halali kwa sababu haukufuata taratibu. Alisema walipaswa kutangaza mgogoro na Serikali na kisha, kutoa notisi ya siku 60 kabla ya kuanza kugoma.

Katika kuhakikisha kuwa Serikali inawadhibiti madaktari hao, Pinda aliwaagiza watendaji wakuu wa Serikali, wakuu wa mikoa, wilaya na waganga wakuu wa mikoa na wilaya kutembelea hospitali zote kuona na kubaini madaktari wanaoendelea na kazi na wale waliogoma, ili hatua ya kusitisha ajira zao zichukuliwe.

Akizungumzia sababu za madaktari hao kugoma kukutane naye, Pinda alisema walitoa sababu tatu ambazo walielekeza kwake kwa barua waliyomkabidhi katibu wake, mnamo saa 3:00 usiku wa juzi.

Walimtaka awasubiri wenzao walioko mikoani wafike ili kushiriki mazungumzo,walitaka pia ofisi yake kujibu madai yao kwa maandishi ili waweze kuyajadili na kutaka Serikali itoe tamko la kutotoa adhabu ya aina yoyote kwao au mtumishi wa kada yoyote ya afya kutokana na mgogoro huo.

Achambua madai
Hata hivyo, pamoja na tamko hilo la kuwataka kurejea kazini mara moja, Serikali imebinisha hoja zao kadhaa isipokuwa mishahara ambazo zinaweza kujadiliwa na kupatiwa ufumbuzi.

Pinda alisema mshahara unaopendekeza na madaktari hao wa Sh3.5 milioni kwa kila daktari anayeanza kazi ni mkubwa na hauwezi kulipwa kutokana na hali ya uchumi wa taifa kutoruhusu.

Alisema hoja ambazo Serikali iko tayari kuzifanyia kazi ni posho za kulala kazini, kufanya kazi katika mazingira magumu, nyumba, usafiri, mikopo ya gari na bima ya afya.

Katika mkutano huo, Waziri Mkuu alisema hayo yanaweza kujadiliwa na kupatiwa ufumbuzi huku akisisitiza kuwa viwango vya posho vilivyowekwa na madaktari hao ni vikubwa mno.

Alisema Serikali imekubaliana na madai ya madaktari hao ya kuwarejesha katika Hospitali ya Taifa ya Muhimbili (MNH) madaktari bingwa, waliohamishwa na wizara katika kipindi cha mwaka juzi.

Wizara iliwahamisha madaktari bingwa 61 kutoka MNH na kuwapangia vituo vingine hali iliyosababisha baadhi yao kugoma kuripoti katika vituo hivyo vipya... “Niliona dai hili nikashauri wizara iwarejeshe kwani sisi tunawahitaji waje kuwahudumia Watanzania.”

Zitto: Posho zetu chanzo cha mgomo
Mbunge wa Kigoma Kaskazini (Chadema), Zitto Kabwe alisema kuwa mgomo huo wa madaktari ni ujumbe kwa Spika, Makamishna wa Bunge na wabunge wenzake kuwa hoja ya posho za walizojiongezea ndiyo inayoleta matatizo hayo.

Alisema kutokana na kujiongezea posho, hoja ya kwamba Serikali haina fedha inakosa nguvu kwa kuwa madaktari watahoji za kuwalipa wabunge zinatoka wapi?

Muhimbili bado hali tete

Mgomo huo wa madaktari unaoendelea nchi nzima umeendelea kuwatesa wagonjwa Muhimbili ambao wamekosa huduma kwa siku 10 sasa.

Katika Taasisi ya mifupa (Moi) ya hospitali hiyo, baadhi huduma zilikuwa bado zimesitishwa.

“Hapa nilipo ni siku ya 10 tangu nifike kwa matibabu. Nilitakiwa kufanyiwa upasuaji wa mguu lakini mpaka sasa sijamuona hata daktari mmoja,” alisema Zebedayo Mwanri aliyelazwa Moi na kuongeza: “Nimekuwa nikipewa dawa za kutuliza maumivu na wauguzi.”

Msemaji Msaidizi wa Moi, Frank Sebastian alisema: “Huduma ambazo zimesitishwa kutolewa ni kwa wagonjwa wa nje ambao wanafika kwa ajili ya matibabu.”

Alisema japo kuna mgomo wa madaktari lakini wao bado wanaendelea kutoa huduma nyingine za dharura.

MP3 Players cause hearing loss at an early Age

2012-01-30T10:31:00.001+03:00

MP3 players cause hearing loss at an early age Loud music and long periods of listening wear the hearing down at an early age. A test showed that 45 out of 358 students at a prep school in the United States had significant hearing loss. The common denominator was that they all listened to MP3 players. Students at Harvest Preparatory Academy in Ohio probably consider turning the volume down after a test revealed that 12.5 percent of the entire student body had significant hearing loss.

"This is terrible. This means that there is speech these kids are unable to discern, that they're probably having a hard time listening in class", said Lin Hamill, a health care educator of Audibility Hearing Care, who conducted the test.

Youngsters being unable to hear teachers in a classroom is obviously a major problem. Additionally, straining to hear can cause fatigue and headaches, making it harder to concentrate.

These are serious consequences and as the youngsters grow older their hearing will only worsen due to the normal decay of sensory hair cells in the inner ear over time.
More and more sound
Hearing professionals and medical advisers have been warning against headphones and ear buds for years, but parents and kids have largely ignored the problem.

"The issue," pointed out Wayne Chiavacci, a local paediatrician, "is more urgent than ever as manufacturers keep coming out with new things for kids to stick in their ears."

Examples include hands-free solutions for telephones and the merger of phone and MP3player. Many young ears are loaded with sound most of the time.

Hohenzollernbruecke Bridge - The Bridge of Love

Thousands upon thousands of locked padlocks can be seen affixed to the fence across the unpronounceable Hohenzollernbruecke bridge in Cologne, Germany. The phenomenon called Love Locks (or Love Padlocks), which many believe to have originated from Italy, is a new kind of vandalism where lovebirds lock padlocks bearing their names against fences, gate, bridge or similar public place to symbolize their everlasting love.

According to Wikipedia, Love padlocks have existed for quite some time, though there are no certain sources for their origin. In Europe, love padlocks started appearing in the early 2000s. In Rome, the ritual of affixing love padlocks to the bridge Ponte Milvio can be attributed to the book I Want You by Italian author Federico Moccia, who later made it into the film-adaptation Ho voglia di te.

Love Locks are frowned upon by the local authorities and owners of various landmarks. Some years ago, Deutsche Bahn, the Hohenzollernbruecke bridge operator, threatened to have the locks removed from the bridge but in the end relented in the face of public opposition.

Love locks are a growing phenomenon in cities across Europe. They have even appeared along the Wild Pacific Trail in Ucluelet on Vancouver Island in Canada.

PAC YATAKA SHERIA EWURA IBADILISHWE

KAMATI ya Bunge ya Hesabu za Mashirika ya Umma(PAC), imeagiza kwamba sheria inayoruhusu Mamlaka ya Nishati na Madini(EWURA) kulipa mishahara ya watumishi wa Baraza Ushauri na Watumaji la Nishati na Madini (EWURA CCC) ibadilishwe ili baraza hilo liweze kufanya kazi ipasavyo.

Hayo yalisemwa leo na Makamu Mwenyekiti wa PAC, Deo Filikunjombe wakati akizungumza na waandishi wa habari leo kwenye ofisi ndogo za Bunge jijini Dares Salaam kuhusu shughuli zilizofanywa na kamati yake , ambapo alisema baraza hilo hesabu zake zinakwenda vizuri.

“Baraza hili hesabu zake ni nzuri , lakini halifanyi kazi ipasavyo kwa kuwa halimtendei kazi ipasavyo liko pamoja na EWURA tumeagiza sheria ibadilishwe ili liweze kufanya kazi kwa kuzingatia pande zote,” alisema Filikunjombe.

Makamu Mwenyekiti huyo alishauri kuwa ni vyema mishahara hiyo ilipwe na wizara husika ili baraza hilo lifanye kazi bila kuegemea upande mmoja.

Akizungumzia kuhusu upandaji wa umeme kwa asilimia 40 alihojia upanda kwa sababu zipi je mlaji wa chini wamemsikiliza wanasemaje, hivyo alisema haitakuwa sahihi ikiwa hakusikilizwa.

Aliongeza kuwa baraza hilo pia linatakiwa kuacha kulipa malipo ya kila baada ya miaka mitano mtumishi anapostaafu badala yake yawe katika mfumo ya mifuko ya hifadhi ya jamii, ikiwemo kuwaingiza watumishi wake katika Mfuko wa Bima ya Afya ili kuepuka utumiaji wa risiti za malipo ya matibabu.

Alitaka baraza hilo kutumia fedha kulingana na bajeti yake.

Wakati huohuo Filikunjombe alisema kamati hiyo imemfukuza mwakilishi wa Shirika Hodhi la Mali za Umma (CHC) kwa kuwa ni mtendaji wa chini hawawezi kuzungumza naye hivyo wanamtaka Ofisa Mtendaji Mkuu.

Alisema mwakilishi aliyetumwa ni Ofisa Uhusiano ambayo ameitumwa na Kaimu Mkurugenzi.

Serikali yasema iko tayari kukutana na madaktari

Naibu Waziri wa Afya na Ustawi wa Jamii, Dk. Lucy Nkya

Siku chache baada ya Chama cha Madaktari nchini (MAT) kutangaza mgogoro na serikali na kuipa saa 72, serikali imetangaza kuwa ipo tayari kukaa nao meza moja na kuzungumzia masuala ya sekta ya afya.

Naibu Waziri wa Afya na Ustawi wa Jamii, Dk. Lucy Nkya, alitoa kauli hiyo jana na kusema kuwa serikali ipo tayari kukaa na MAT kuzungumza kama watakuwa tayari.

Dk. Nkya alisema sakata la madaktari 1,994 waliokuwa katika mazoezi katika Hospitali ya Taifa ya Muhimbili waliamua kutoendelea na ratiba zao za mazoezi kwa vitendo baada ya kucheleweshewa posho zao za kila mwezi.

Alisema baada ya kuchelewa kutolewa kwa fedha za posho, wizara ilifanya jitihada ya kuhakikisha fedha hizo zinapatikana haraka.

Alisema serikali ilikuwa ikitoa taarifa katika taasisi walizokuwa wakifanyia kazi kuhusiana na jitihada zinazofanywa ili kutatua tatizo hilo.

“Ieleweke kwamba wataalamu hawa huingia mikataba na hospitali husika na mkataba wanaoingia umeainisha hawatakiwi kugoma au kuanzisha mgomo,” alisema Dk. Nkya.

Dk. Nkya alisema pamoja na wizara kufanya jitihada hizo kuwa suala lao limefanyiwa ufumbuzi, lakini bado walishikilia msimamo wao wa kutorudi vituoni hadi wapokee fedha na kwamba jambo hilo halikuwa la kiungwana.

Alisema baada ya kuona hivyo, wizara ilipeleka wataalamu 51 waliokuwa wakisubiri kuanza mafunzo Januari mwaka huu ili kuchukua nafasi za wataalamu waliokataa kurejea katika hospitali hiyo kwa ajili ya kuzuia athari ambazo zingeweza kujitokeza kwa wagonjwa. Hata hivyo, alisema katika mgomo huo kuna wenzao 60 ambao hawakugoma.

“Baadhi ya wataalamu waliokuwa wakifanya mazoezi katika vituo kama vya Hospitali ya KCMC, Mount Meru, Bombo, Bugando na Manispaa za Dar es Salaam walitambua jitihada za wizara za kushughulikia tatizo hilo na waliendelea na ratiba yao ya mazoezi kwa vitendo,” alisema.

Alisema waliogoma uongozi wa Muhimbili uliwachukulia hatua na kuwaandikia barua kuwarudisha wizarani na kutaka wapatiwe wataalamu hao.

“Ili kuhakikisha wataalamu hao wanafikia malengo ya mazoezi ya vitendo wizara imeamua kuwapanga katika hospitali mbalimbali ikiwemo Muhimbili, Temeke, Mwananyamala, Aga khan, Amana na Lugalo kwa kuzingatia uwezo wa hospitali,” alisema.

Alisema Januari 16, mwaka huu wataalamu 194 walikuwa wamepewa barua na wameripoti katika vituo walivyopangiwa.

Alisa wizara yake imepata taarifa kupitia vyombo vya habari kuwa MAT imewapa saa 72 iwarudishe madakatari hao katika hospitali ya Muhimbili pamoja na kutaka kuondolewa kwa baadhi ya viongozi wa wizara.

Hata hivyo, alisema tamko hilo halijawasilishwa rasmi wizarani na kusisitiza kuwa madakatari hao hawajafukuzwa kufanya mazoezi bali wamepangiwa vituo vingine.

Akizungumzia uamuzi wa MAT kumvua uanachama Mganga Mkuu wa Serikali, Deo Mtasiwa, Dk. Nkya alisema chama hicho hakiwezi kumchukulia hatua bali chombo chenye mamlaka ni Wizara.

Rais wa MAT, Dk. Namala Mkopi, alisema suala hilo watalizungumzia leo na kwamba tamko walilolitoa Jumamosi sio lazime lipelekwe wizarani ndio maana walitoa taarifa kupitia vyombo vya habari.

MREMBO AUWAWA NIGERIA KISA FACEBOOK

UHUSIANO wa kimapenzi, ulioanzishwa kupitia mtandao wa kijamii wa Facebook, umesababisha kifo cha mrembo nchini Nigeria.

Habari za mtandaoni zinadai kuwa mrembo huyo (jina halikutajwa) pamoja na boyfriend wake (jina pia halijatajwa), walikuwa kwenye uhusiano wa muda mrefu.

Imedaiwa kuwa wakati wawili hao wakiwa kwenye utekelezaji wa hatua za mwanzo za kufunga ndoa, mrembo huyo alimtaarifu boyfriend wake kuwa amepata mpenzi mwingine kwa njia ya Facebook.

Chanzo cha habari kiliiambia tovuti moja ya nchi hiyo kwamba mrembo huyo alianzisha urafiki wa Facebook na kijana mmoja raia wa Marekani (jina halijatajwa) kabla ya kibao kubadilika na kuwa wapenzi.

Chanzo kiliendelea kupasha habari kwamba mrembo huyo na mpenzi wake wa Facebook, walidumisha uhusiano wao kwa njia ya mawasiliano ya simu kwa muda mrefu kabla ya kukata shauri la kuonana ana kwa ana.

“Yule kijana raia wa Marekani alitembelea Nigeria, akafikia hoteli moja kubwa. Yule mrembo akaenda kukutana naye na kutumia muda mrefu chumbani.

“Ni kama baada ya kukutana ndiyo mapenzi yaliongezeka zaidi, kwani alipoondoka hotelini, yule mrembo alirudi kwa boyfriend wake aliyepanga kufunga naye ndoa na kumueleza kwamba mapenzi yamekwisha.

“Baada ya kuambiwa hivyo, kijana aliyekuwa na mategemeo ya kufunga ndoa na mrembo huyo, alimpeleleza mpenzi wake na kubaini mahali ambako kijana kutoka Marekani alifikia.

“Siku iliyofuata alivamia kwenye ile hoteli, akamkuta mpenzi wake na yule kijana wa Facebook, hapo ugomvi mkubwa ulizuka. Ugomvi haukuishia hapo kwa sababu kijana wa Nigeria aliahidi ni lazima aue mtu.

“Siku moja baada ya ugomvi hotelini, kijana wa Nigeria alimteka mpenzi wake na kumuua kwa kumkatakata na silaha inayodhaniwa kuwa ni panga,” alisema mtoa habari huyo.

Kwa mujibu wa mtandao huo mpaka pale habari hiyo inachapishwa, mtuhumiwa wa mauaji alikuwa hajakamatwa.

Iran yataka mazungumzo na Marekani bila masharti

Umoja wa Falme za Kiarabu umetahadharisha dhidi ya kutokea machafuko zaidi juu ya mgogoro uliopo kuhusu mpango wa nyuklia wa Iran, huku Iran ikitaka majirani zake wa Kiarabu kujitenga na Marekani.

Waziri wa Mambo ya Kigeni wa Iran, Ali Akbar Salehi, amesema amani na uthabiti wa eneo hilo ndio nia ya nchi hiyo lakini akaonya mataifa jirani kutojiweka katika hali ya hatari kwa kujiweka karibu sana na Marekani. Majirani wa nchi za Kiarabu wa Iran ni washirika wakuu wa Marekani wanaosema kwamba hawatakubali hatua yoyote ya kufunga mlango wa bahari ya Hormuz.

Ali Akbar amesema Marekani inapaswa kujitokeza wazi wazi na kusema iwapo ina nia ya kufanya mazungumzo na Tehran, na inapaswa kufanya hivyo bila ya kuwawekea vikwazo vyovyote. Waziri huyo aliyasema haya baada ya kupokea barua kutoka kwa Rais Barack Obama wa Marekani juu ya kufungwa kwa mlango wa hormuz. habari zaidi juu ya barua hiyo bado haijatolewa. Ikulu ya Marekani imekataa pia kutoa maoni juu ya barua hiyo.

Kwa sasa kuna hali ya wasiwasi kati ya Iran na Marekani kuhusu mpango wake wa nuklia, ambapo Marekani na mataifa mengine yenye nguvu duniani wanasema Iran ina nia ya kutengeneza silaha hizo za atomiki jambo ambalo Iran inakanusha Vikali.

Rais Barack Obama wa Marekani.

Iran imetishia kufunga mlango wa bahari ya Hormuz ambayo hutumika sana katika kusafirisha mafuta, iwapo mataifa ya Ulaya yatasisitiza nchi hiyo kuwekewa vikwazo katika biashara zake na pia kuzuiliwa kwa mali zake katika benki kuu nchini humo. Iwapo Iran itatekeleza onyo hilo la kuufunga mlango wa bahari ya Hormuz basi kunaweza kutokea mgogoro mkubwa katika jamii ya Mashariki ya Kati.

Hata hiyo, mawaziri wa kigeni wa Umoja wa Ulaya wanatarajiwa kukutana siku ya Jumatatu kukubaliana juu ya ya vikwazo dhidi ya Tehran. Iwapo vikwazo vipya vya Marekani vilivyowekwa saini na rais wa nchi hiyo Barrack Obama siku ya mkesha wa mwaka mpya vitapitishwa, haitaruhusu mataifa mengine kulipia mafuta ya Iran.

Mkuu wa Shirika la Kimataifa la Kudhibiti Nguvu za Atomiki amesema ni jukumu lake kueleza dunia kuhusu uwezekano wa hatua za kijeshi juu ya mpango wa nuklia wa Iran akiweka msisimko mkubwa kabla ya mkutano wa wanachama wa shirika hilo utakaofanyika Januari 29 hadi 31. Nalo shirika hilo la Umoja wa Mataifa limesema kitu wanachokijua kwa sasa ni kuwepo kwa harakati za kutengeneza silaha za nyuklia na kwa sasa wanataka kufanya kila juhudi kujua undani wa habari hiyo.

Majambazi wavamia ndege ya dhahabu

Submitted by Mjengwa on 6.1.12

Pichani: Wakazi wa Wilaya ya Geita mkoani Mwanza, wakiangalia mwili wa mtu anayesadikiwa kuwa ni jambazi (jina hajafahamika), akiwa ni mmoja wa watu wanne waliyovamia mgodi wa dhahabu wa Geita (GGM), akiwa amekufa baada ya kupigwa risasi na askari polisi katika jaribio hilo la kutka kupora dhahabu jana. (Picha na Sitta Tumma)

WATU wanne wanaosadikiwa kuwa majambazi wamevamia mgodi wa dhahabu wa Geita (GGM), na kuteka ndege ya kubeba madini hayo na kupora vitofali 68 vya dhahabu iliyokuwa ikisafirishwa kutoka mgodi huo kwenda nje ya nchi yenye thamani ya zaidi ya Sh bilioni 130.

Hata hivyo, majambazi hao walishindwa kuondoka na dhahabu hiyo baada ya polisi wilayani hapa kuwahi kufika eneo la tukio na kuiokoa, baada ya kupambana na majambazi hao kwa
kurushiana risasi na kuua mmoja.

Dhahabu iliyonusurika kuporwa na majambazi hao kwa mujibu wa madai ya mmoja wa polisi aliyeikagua ambaye hakutaka kutajwa jina lake gazetini, ilikuwa ni zaidi ya kilo 1,000.

Polisi huyo alidai kuwa dhahabu hiyo ilikuwa imegawanywa katika makasha 16 huku kila kasha likiwa na vitofali vinne vya dhahabu na kila kitofali kikiwa na uzito wa kilo 25.

Hata hivyo, Ofisa Madini mkazi wa Kanda ya Geita, Juma Sementa, ambaye ofisi yake imekuwa ikikagua na kuhakiki dhahabu kabla ya kusafirishwa kila wiki na mgodi huo, alipotakiwa kutoa ufafanuzi kuhusu uzito kamili wa dhahabu iliyokaguliwa na ofisi yake juzi kabla ya kusafirishwa
jana, alitofautiana na madai ya polisi.

Sementa alisema ofisi yake ilikagua makasha 25 na kila kasha likiwa na kitofali kimoja cha dhahabu chenye uzito wa kati ya kilo tano na 30.

Katika tukio hilo la aina yake, polisi walimuua mtuhumiwa mmoja baada ya kummiminia risasi kifuani, ingawa tayari alikuwa amejeruhiwa na mmoja wa walinzi wa mgodi huo ambaye ni
raia wa Afrika Kusini.

Tukio hilo lilitokea jana saa 5.55 adhuhuri katika uwanja wa ndege wa mgodi huo ulioko umbali wa kilometa tano kutoka katikati ya mji wa Geita.

Kwa mujibu wa habari zilizopatikana kutoka eneo la tukio na kuthibitishwa na baadhi ya maofisa wa polisi wilayani hapa, uchunguzi wa awali ulionesha kuwa majambazi wapatao
wanne walivamia mgodi huo wakiingilia lango kuu la uwanja huo wa ndege.

Ilielezwa kuwa majambazi hao wakiwa na mabomu ya kutupa kwa mkono, bunduki aina ya SMG na bastola, waliishambulia kwa risasi ndege iliyokuwa ikipakia dhahabu kutoka kwenye gari maalumu.

“Hali hiyo iliwafanya walinzi wa mgodi huo waliokuwa wakilinda usalama wa mali iliyokuwa ikisafirishwa, kutimua mbio, lakini alibaki Mzungu raia wa Afrika Kusini mfanyakazi wa
mgodi huo, aliyekuwa na bastola.

“Raia huyo wa Afrika Kusini alipambana na majambazi hao kwa kuwafyatulia risasi,’’ alisema mmoja wa maofisa wa Polisi katika mahojiano maalumu na gazeti hili.

Ilidaiwa kuwa wakati raia huyo akiendelea kufyatuliana risasi na mmoja wa majambazi hao, aliishiwa risasi na kujeruhiwa kwa kupigwa risasi kwenye mkono na kukimbia kuokoa maisha
yake.

Hata hivyo, baada ya muda mfupi, inadaiwa askari Polisi walifika na kupambana na majambazi hao ambapo watatu walitimua mbio na kubaki mmoja ambaye tayari alikuwa amejeruhiwa
na Mzungu huyo; akashambuliana kwa risasi na polisi, lakini alizidiwa na kuuawa.

Bastola, mabomu, bunduki
Jambazi aliyeuawa bado hajatambuliwa jina na alikutwa na bastola aina ya Chenese namba 0048467 ikiwa na risasi sita, na bunduki aina ya SMG namba UA89381997 inayoonekana kusajiliwa Uganda.

Pia alikutwa na mabomu manne ya kutupa kwa mkono, magazini nne na risasi 60 ambazo hazijatumika, huku akiwa amevalia nguo za kawaida nguo nne ndani na ya juu ikiwa ni sare za
Jeshi la Ulinzi la Wananchi wa Tanzania (JWTZ).

Jambazi huyo naye alimjeruhi kwa risasi mfanyakazi mwingine wa mgodi huo, raia wa Afrika Kusini aliyetambuliwa kwa jina la Engenas Van Der Schuffs, baada ya kumpiga risasi kwenye mkono wa kulia.

Marubani wa ndege iliyoshambuliwa yenye namba SH-TZX walitambuliwa kwa majina ya Meja Kondo Hamza na Hamdan Salehe.

Hata hivyo, habari zilizopatikana kutoka eneo la tukio zilisema ndege hiyo ilishindwa kuondoka kwenye uwanja huo kutokana na moja ya mabawa yake kutobolewa kwa risasi.

Tiger Woods’ ex-wife bulldozes $12 million home

Courtesy of Pacific Coast News

There are times when divorce forces people to do strange things. Burn sheets. Throw out clothes. Toss rings into the ocean. But when you get $100 million in your divorce, you can trump just about anything and that's what happened with Tiger Woods' ex-wife when she bought a $12 million home and bulldozed the whole thing.

[Check the before picture above and the after picture after the jump]

Yes, according to TMZ, Elin Nordegren bought a $12 million home in North Palm Beach, Fla., but didn't like it, and has plowed the whole thing.

The house, which had six bedrooms and eight bathrooms, is now just rubble, with no word yet on what is going to replace the beautiful building you see above, but I guess when you have nine figures in the bank, it doesn't really matter what you want.

I guess we can all applaud Elin on not rolling over after all this happened and continuing on with her life. But I think we can all agree on one thing: Why in the world is she still in Florida? Wouldn't you want to move back home for good?

MATUNDA YA LEMA YAANZA KUONEKANA WORLD BANK WAHOJI MATUMIZI MAKUBWA ARUSHA

SAKATAla ubadhirifu na matumizi mabaya ya fedha katika Halmashauri ya Jiji la Arusha, limeingia katika hatua nyingine baada ya Benki ya Dunia nchini, kutaka maelezo ya kina vinginevyo itasitisha kuendelea kutoa misaada katika Jiji hilo baada ya kubaini fedha zaidi ya Sh milioni 100 kutumika kukarabati ofisi nne za Jiji hilo.
Vyanzo vya habari kutoka Halmashauri ya Jiji la Arusha vilisema kuwa fedha hizo ambazo katika mradi wa benki hiyo ujulikanao kwa jina la Tanzania Strategic Cities Programmes (TSCP) wa Jiji hilo, zimetumika kukarabati ofisi za Mkurugenzi, Biashara, Mchumi na Mhandisi.

Habari za uhakika zilieleza kuwa kutumika “hovyo hovyo” kwa mamilioni hayo ya fedha, hakukuridhisha uongozi wa Benki ya Dunia kwani ulieleza kuwa ni matumizi mabaya ya fedha hivyo walitaka maelezo ya kina kwa maandishi.

Uongozi huo wa benki ulimwandikia pia Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Arusha, Magesa Mulongo juu yahali hiyo na uamuzi ambao ofisi hiyo inataka kuchukua, ndipo mkuu huyo alipoingilia kati nakuiahidi Benki ya Dunia kuwa itafuatilia na kama kuna ulaji, hatua kali zitachukuliwa.

Habari zilieleza kuwa baada ya ahadi hiyo, ndipo benki hiyo iliamua kuacha kwanza hatua yakehiyo mpaka watakapopata taarifa rasmi ya hatua za kuchukuliwa wahusika wa ubadhilifu wa fedha hizo.

Kaimu Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa Jiji la Arusha, Estomih Chang’a alipoulizwa juu ya kiasi hicho kutumika kukarabati ofisi nne tu, alisema taratibu zote za kutangaza zabuni zilitumika hivyo kampuni iliyofanya kazi hiyo ilipewa kazi hiyo kwa uamuzi wa Bodi ya Ununuzi na Ugavi ya Jiji hilo.

Chang’a alisema kazi ya kukarabati ofisi ilitangazwa zabuni, ikafanyiwa tathmini, ikapita zabunina kuzingatiwa Sheria ya Manunuzi ya Umma kwa asilimia 100 na kama kuna lingine liko tofauti, aulizwe Mhandisi wa Jiji.

Alipobanwa ili atoe ufafanuzi iweje yeye kama kiongozi wa Jiji la Arusha na Mdhibiti Mkuu wa matumizi ya fedha, akubali kiasi hicho kikubwa cha fedha kutumika kukarabati ofisi mbili, alisisitiza aulizwe Mhandisi huyo kwa madai ndiye aliyefanya tathmini ya awali kabla ya utangazaji zabuni.

Mhandisi wa Jiji, Afwilile Lamsy alipoulizwa kwa njia ya simu, alisema na kupingana na Mkurugenzi wake kwa kueleza kuwa ofisi zilizofanyiwa ukarabati ni zaidi ya 10, hatua iliyoonekana kupingana na baadhi ya nyaraka zinazoonesha kuwa ukarabati huo ulifanywa kwaofisi nne tu.

Lamsy alisema akiwa ni mtendaji na msimamizi mkuu wa shughuli zote za ujenzi, anachojuani kuwa ofisi zilizofanyiwa ukarabati ni zaidi ya 10, lakini alishindwa kufafanua kama bajeti yake iliruhusu kampuni kutenda kwa zaidi ya Sh milioni 100 kukarabati ofisi hizo.

Mkuu wa Mkoa, Mulongo alipoulizwa kama anajua chochote juu ya utata wa matumizi ya fedhaza mradi huo, alikiri kuufahamu na kueleza kuwa kutumika kwa fedha hizo ni moja ya kazi za mradi huo.

Ila alienda mbali zaidi na kueleza kwamba tatizo ni kiasi hicho cha fedha na ndio maana Tume imeundwa kuchunguza.

“Kukarabati ofisi ni moja ya package (sehemu) ya mradi huo, lakini kuna tatizo katika utoaji wazabuni kwa kampuni kwa fedha hizo nyingi na ndio maana Tume ya Bodi ya Udhibiti wa Manunuzi ya Umma (PPRA) inachunguza kubaini ukweli,” alisema Mkuu wa Mkoa.

5 Foods That Can Trigger a Stroke

2011-09-22T12:09:00.001+03:00

Few things feel more terrifying and random than a stroke, which can strike without warning. And fear of stroke -- when a blood vessel in or leading to the brain bursts or is blocked by a blood clot, starving brain cells of oxygen and nutrients -- is well founded. After all, stroke is the number-three killer in the U.S., affecting more than 700,000 people each year. Here are five foods that cause the damage that leads to stroke.

1. Crackers, chips, and store-bought pastries and baked goods

Muffins, doughnuts, chips, crackers, and many other baked goods are high in trans fats, which are hydrogenated oils popular with commercial bakeries because they stay solid at room temperature, so the products don't require refrigeration. Also listed on labels as "partially hydrogenated" or hydrogenated oils, trans fats are found in all kinds of snack foods, frozen foods, and baked goods, including salad dressings, microwave popcorn, stuffing mixes, frozen tater tots and French fries, cake mixes, and whipped toppings. They're also what makes margarine stay in a solid cube. The worst offenders are fried fast foods such as onion rings, French fries, and fried chicken.

Why it's bad

For years scientists have known trans fats are dangerous artery-blockers, upping the concentrations of lipids and bad cholesterol in the blood and lowering good cholesterol. Now we can add stroke to the list of dangers. This year researchers at the University of North Carolina found that women who ate 7 grams of trans fat each day -- about the amount in two doughnuts or half a serving of French fries -- had 30 percent more strokes (the ischemic type, caused by blocked blood flow to the brain) than women who ate just 1 gram a day. Another recent study, also in women, found that trans fats promoted inflammation and higher levels of C-reactive protein, which have been linked to an increased risk of diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

What to do

Aim to limit trans fats to no more than 1 or 2 grams a day -- and preferably none. Avoid fast-food French fries and other fried menu items and study packaged food labels closely. Even better, bake your own cookies, cakes, and other snacks. When you can't, search out "health-food" alternative snacks, such as Terra brand potato chips and traditional whole grain crackers such as those made by Finn, Wasa, AkMak, Ryvita, and Lavasch.

2. Smoked and processed meats

Whether your weakness is pastrami, sausage, hot dogs, bacon, or a smoked turkey sandwich, the word from the experts is: Watch out.

Why it's bad

Smoked and processed meats are nasty contributors to stroke risk in two ways: The preserving processes leave them packed with sodium, but even worse are the preservatives used to keep processed meats from going bad. Sodium nitrate and nitrite have been shown by researchers to directly damage blood vessels, causing arteries to harden and narrow. And of course damaged, overly narrow blood vessels are exactly what you don't want if you fear stroke.

Many studies have linked processed meats to coronary artery disease (CAD); one meta-analysis in the journal Circulation calculated a 42-percent increase in coronary heart disease for those who eat one serving of processed meat a day. Stroke is not the only concern for salami fans; cancer journals have reported numerous studies in the past few years showing that consumption of cured and smoked meats is linked with increased risk of diabetes and higher incidences of numerous types of cancer, including leukemia.

What to do

If a smoked turkey or ham sandwich is your lunch of choice, try to vary your diet, switching to tuna, peanut butter, or other choices several days a week. Or cook turkey and chicken yourself and slice it thin for sandwiches.

How to Tell if Someone Is Having a Stroke

3. Diet soda

Although replacing sugary drinks with diet soda seems like a smart solution for keeping weight down -- a heart-healthy goal -- it turns out diet soda is likely a major bad guy when it comes to stroke.

Why it's bad

People who drink a diet soda a day may up their stroke risk by 48 percent. A Columbia University study presented at the American Stroke Association's 2011 International Stroke Conference followed 2,500 people ages 40 and older and found that daily diet soda drinkers had 60 percent more strokes, heart attacks, and coronary artery disease than those who didn't drink diet soda. Researchers don't know exactly how diet soda ups stroke risk -- and are following up with further studies -- but nutritionists are cautioning anyone concerned about stroke to cut out diet soda pop.

What to do

Substitute more water for soda in your daily diet. It's the healthiest thirst-quencher by far, researchers say. If you don't like water, try lemonade, iced tea, or juice.

4. Red meat

This winter, when the respected journal Stroke published a study showing that women who consumed a large portion of red meat each day had a 42-percent higher incidence of stroke, it got nutrition experts talking. The information that red meat, with its high saturated fat content, isn't healthy for those looking to prevent heart disease and stroke wasn't exactly news. But the percentage increase (almost 50 percent!) was both startling and solid; the researchers arrived at their finding after following 35,000 Swedish women for ten years.

Why it's bad

Researchers have long known that the saturated fat in red meat raises the risk of stroke and heart disease by gradually clogging arteries with a buildup of protein plaques. Now it turns out that hemoglobin, the ingredient that gives red meat its high iron content, may pose a specific danger when it comes to stroke. Researchers are investigating whether blood becomes thicker and more viscous as a result of the consumption of so-called heme iron, specifically upping the chance of strokes.

What to do

Aim to substitute more poultry -- particularly white meat -- and fish, which are low in heme iron, for red meat. Also, choose the heart-healthiest sources of protein whenever you can, especially beans, legumes, nuts, tofu, and nonfat dairy.

5. Canned soup and prepared foods

Whether it's canned soup, canned spaghetti, or healthy-sounding frozen dinners, prepared foods and mixes rely on sodium to increase flavor and make processed foods taste fresher. Canned soup is cited by nutritionists as the worst offender; one can of canned chicken noodle soup contains more than 1,100 mg of sodium, while many other varieties, from clam chowder to simple tomato, have between 450 and 800 mg per serving. Compare that to the American Heart and Stroke Association's recommendation of less than1,500 mg of sodium daily and you'll see the problem. In fact, a nutritionist-led campaign, the National Salt Reduction Initiative, calls on food companies to reduce the salt content in canned soup and other products by 20 percent in the next two years.

Why it's bad

Salt, or sodium as it's called on food labels, directly affects stroke risk. In one recent study, people who consumed more than 4,000 mg of sodium daily had more than double the risk of stroke compared to those who ate 2,000 mg or less. Yet the Centers for Disease Control estimate that most Americans eat close to 3,500 mg of sodium per day. Studies show that sodium raises blood pressure, the primary causative factor for stroke. And be warned: Sodium wears many tricky disguises, which allow it to hide in all sorts of foods that we don't necessarily think of as salty. Some common, safe-sounding ingredients that really mean salt:

Baking soda
Baking powder
MSG (monosodium glutamate)
Disodium phosphate
Sodium alginate

What to do

Make your own homemade soups and entrees, then freeze individual serving-sized portions. Buy low-sodium varieties, but read labels carefully, since not all products marked "low sodium" live up to that promise.

If u hav a girl that always wants u 2 pay for her and she doesnt offer 2 pay for herself tell her u dont have much money and ask if she would like 2 pay for herself, but if she wont u'll probably be better off without her coz if u stay with her u'll never have any money for urself coz she'll spend it all.

8 - Dont lie its worse that keeping secrets coz u'll make her feel like u dont trust her and cant tell her anything so she'll keep secrets 2 and wont tell u anything.
9 - Always give her a kiss and a cuddle, even if ur out with ur friends.
10 - Never ever talk about how good looking other girls or women on the tv are u'll make her feel really bad, and she'll think u dont find her attractive.

11 - If shes got guy friends and she talks 2 them alot dont get jealous and think that shes goin 2 cheat on u theyre only friends nothings goin 2 happen between them.
12 - If she looks upset about something ask her whats wrong, but if she says nothing that means she doesnt want 2 talk about it and theres nothing u can do 2 make her talk about it so just give her a cuddle coz it will make her feel alot better.
13 - Always ask her how her days been she'll always have something 2 say, and it will show that u care.
14 - If she does smoething that really annoys u, u have 2 tell her u cant jst go in a mood or she wont know wot she did wrong, she will really appreciate u telling her coz she'll know not 2 do it again.
15 - Whenever u talk about the future always talk about it as if u r going 2 be together forever it will make her feel like u really love her and u always want 2 be with her.

9 things you shouldn’t say to your child

By Sara Cox

I just read a really interesting article by Paula Spencer, which outlines the nine things you should never say to your children. It's a good, informative piece that explains not only why you shouldn't say these things but suggests alternatives.

Paula also points out that of course, us mums cant always waft around in a cloud of freshly baked cookie scent, being endlessly sweet and patient and sometimes we do snap; the question is, how often and how brutally do you verbally swipe at your offspring?

Having glanced at the comments underneath Paula's article I didn't need to read further than the first, which simply said "I've said every one" then the mum in question backed up that statement with a sad face made entirely from punctuation, to illustrate just how dissatisfied she is with her loose tongue.

Well, I can tell that mum to turn that frown (or rather bracket) upside down as she ain't alone!

So, just for fun, lets go through the nine don'ts and play a bit of "bad mummy bingo", fingers crossed you don't get a full house.

1) "Leave me alone!"
Ok, so this one I've definitely said, to be precise though I say the Northern version, handed down through generations of proud Boltonian women: "Stop mithering!"

See also "Get out from under my feet!" which is most effective when thundered lovingly from atop a juddering ample bosom clad in a housecoat.

This one is a no-brainer for me; when pans are bubbling over and there's a child pulling at your arms, I see it as a warm shooing away for their own safety. Ok, next:

2) "You're so.."
Hmm, this is an interesting one 'cos there's so many words you can tag onto this: selfish/lazy/stupid are ones I'd never ever use. Daft/dramatic/soppy maybe, but said in a chiding way, though probably not ideal. Must try harder Saz. Labeling your child by telling them they are something is probably best avoided, unless its "You're so gorgeous/sweet/brilliant"

3) "Don't cry"
Yep, said it. This isn't really a bad one. It's more about validating their feelings. Saying "you must be sad Jamie cant play out today" is preferable though does take a while.

4) "Why can't you be more like your sister?"
This one only works if your child has a sister, otherwise they'll think you're insane. I don't do this one, but must confess to saying pointedly, "Oh, good girl Lola, eating your dinner so nicely" as Isaac rubs mashed potato in his hair.

5) "You Know Better Than That!"
Oh no. Wish I'd never started this! Yup, I've definitely said a version of that to Lola. When she's wrestling with a 6-pint carton of milk and spills it (though not worth crying over) I have been known to say "You kinda knew that'd happen, ask me for help next time". I suppose next time I ought to miss off the first half of the statement. Or buy smaller cartons of milk.

6) "Stop or I'll give you something to cry about!"
Ok, this one I never say. For two reasons: my mum used to say it a lot and I remember hating the menacing undercurrent of a promised smack and also, I'm a firm believer in following through threats and seeing as I don't hit my kids, this threat would be pointless.

I must however say I do now with hindsight understand why my mum would say it, as there are few things more annoying than a child theatrically bursting into tears at the drop of a hat/flapjack/crayon. It's manipulative and noisy.

7) "Hurry up!"
Well, I may as well get this one tattooed somewhere on my midriff to save time in a morning, so when I'm halfway out the door on a rainy Monday AM with a baby/blazer/book bag/games kit in my arms and my darling daughter not only hasn't put her shoes on (as I've asked her to six times) but is instead perched on the stairs plaiting her dolls hair I can simply flash my tummy tattoo instead of growling "hurry up" through a mouthful of half-munched apple.

8) "Wait 'til daddy gets home!"
Never said it. That's no threat. I'm the boss and they know it. In fact, they're probably excited about his arrival home to save them from me.

9) "Great job!" or "good girl!"
Hmm, apparently its better to be more specific, like "I can see how beautifully you've coloured in the butterfly wings on that picture" which obviously takes longer. I'm taking that one on board and will do my best, unless of course the butterfly is being illustrated when she should be getting her school shoes on (see above)

So that's the naughty nine. Whatever your score there's probably room for improvement but let's not beat ourselves up too much. I'm sure most of us had some of the 9 said to us as children and we're ok. Now stop mithering me, I'm off to bed.

This is really a new perspective about a boy

I think everyone might have read abt Mom's, Wife's and Girl's...
Its time to learn something abt Men...

A boy/man is one of the most beautiful creations of God.
He starts compromising at very tender age. He sacrifices his chocolates for his sister.

Later he sacrifices his love for just a smile on his parents face. He sacrifices his love for his wife and children by working late nights.

He builds their future by taking loans from banks and then repaying them for the life time. Thus he sacrifices full youth for his wife and children without any complain.

Believe me he struggles a lot but still has to hear the music (scolding) of Mother, wife and his boss. Yet every mother, wife and boss tries to have control over him.

Finally his life ends up by compromising for others happiness. He is that creature of God who no one can compete with.

Respect every boy/man in your life. You will never know what he has sacrificed for you.

Just extend your hand when he needs it

Boys Also Have Emotions. Respect them.

Awesome Breathing Therapy For Everyone

Breathing Therapy

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.

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 mins, your headache will go?

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.

My friend used to have bad headaches and was always visiting the doctor.

There was this period when he suffered headache literally every night, unable to study.

He took painkillers, did not work.

He decided to try out the breathing therapy here: closed his right nose and breathed through his left nose.

In less than a week, his headaches were gone! He continued the exercise for one month.

This alternative natural therapy without medication is something that he has experienced.

So, why not give it a try?

Delicious Fruits

01. Strawberries

Strawberries have high levels of ellagic acid and anthocyanins, and are rich in vitamin C (95 mg per cup) and fiber (3.8 g per cup). Fruits provide lots vitamins and carbohydrates to nourish the body and also add variety to the diet. Apples are a great source of vitamin C, they prevents the growth of harmful bacteria and help fight cancer. Bananas are handy for problems like constipation and diarrhea. Blueberries have a number of health benefits including anti-cancerous, antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties.

02. Apples

An apple’s 3 g of fiber help you meet your fiber goal of 20 g to 30 g daily. High-fiber diets can lower heart disease risk.

ATTITUDE

1) Heavy rains remind us of challenges in life. Never ask for a lighter rain. Just pray for a better umbrella. That is attitude.

2) When flood comes, fish eat ants & when flood recedes, ants eat fish. Only time matters. Just hold on, God gives opportunity to everyone!

3) Some people always throw stones in your path. It depends on you what you make with them,Wall or Bridge? Remember you are the architect of your life.

4) Every problem has (n+1) solutions, where n is the number of solutions that you have tried and 1 is that you have not tried. That's life.

5) It's not important to hold all the good cards in life. But it's important how well you play with the cards which you hold.

6) Often when we lose all hope & think this is the end, God smiles from above and
says, `relax dear its just a bend. Not the end. Have Faith and have a successful life.

7) When you feel sad, to cheer up just go to the mirror and say, `Damn I am really so cute`and you will overcome your sadness. But do not make this a habit coz liars go
to hell.

8) One of the basic differences between God and human is, God gives, gives and forgives. But human gets, gets, gets and forgets. Be thankful in life!

Heart Attacks And Drinking Warm Water

very good article which takes two minutes to read. I'm sending this to persons I care about........I hope you do too!!!

Heart Attacks And Drinking Warm Water

b This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal, but about Heart Attacks. The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating.
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.

Common Symptoms Of Heart Attack...
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting

. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.

You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up.. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive.

A cardiologist says if everyone who reads this message sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life. Read this & Send to a friend. It could save a life...So, please be a true friend and send this article to all your friends you care about.

I JUST DID

FYI.
Valuable Information!

Correct timing to drink water, will maximize its effectiveness on the Human body.
Two (02) glass es of water - After waking up - Helps activate internal organs
One (01) glass of water - 30 minutes before meal - Help digestion
One (01) glass of water - Before taking a bath - Helps lower blood pressure
One (01) glass of water - Before sleep - To avoid stroke or heart attack

Please pass this to the people you know.......

How to Make Your Computer Faster

Making your computer faster is not very difficult. However, if your computer is running slow, it is very common that most of you in a bid to find a solution on how to make your computer faster, must have installed an antivirus software. But this may not solve your problem. Do you know that certain antivirus softwares can make your computer run slower, if you do not have sufficient RAM or a processor compatible with your antivirus software. Well, we will take a look at this detail at a later stage. Right now, let me provide you with information on how to make your computer faster with very few steps.

Basic Steps to Make Your Computer Faster

Disk Defragmentation
Clusters of fragmented data at different locations of your disk space may cause your computer to run slow. A particular type of data should all be clustered together, else it takes longer time for the computer processor to retrieve the same. Hence, it is very important that once in a while (eg. Once a week) you defragment your disk space. The process to do so is simple. In Windows operating system, you need to go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragment.

System Cleanup
There is something called paging file size recommendations, that does affect the speed of your computer. Here, we won’t go into the details of what this paging file size recommendation is, but for the time being, let me tell you it is very important to have some free disk space for this. Hence, it is always important that you keep a certain portion of your hard disk empty. The easiest and safest way to delete unnecessary files is to use the Windows System Cleanup Utility. You can find the option in Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup. In this option, you can select all the items like temporary Internet files and cookies that you want to be deleted.

Windows Startup
Many of you must be wondering, why is my computer slow during startup? The reason is the large number of startup programs that are running in your computer. Many a times, when installing a particular software, we do not read the steps properly and hence forget to uncheck the options for running the softwares during startup. This causes a large number of softwares to load when the computer boots up, hence reducing the computer speed. The solution for this is to run msconfig and uncheck all those programs that you do not want to run during startup. Read more about ways to speed up your computer.

Other Ways to Make Your Computer Faster

If you have tried all these options, but without much benefit, then you can try the following methods. If you find your computer running slow, when running a software that is using a lot of memory space, simply hit the Ctrl-Alt-Del key combination, to start the Task Manager. From the Task Manager, select all those programs that you do not want running in the background and click on End Task. This will free up your memory space and hence cause your computer to run faster. When it comes to dealing with computer viruses, it’s not necessary to say that they can also reduce the speed of your computer drastically. Thus, you need to have an antivirus loaded into your system. But, it is also important that the antivirus software you use, should be compatible with your computer configuration. A computer with a low configuration, when uses an antivirus software that needs a lot of memory space, may reduce the computer speed even further. Thus, the computer runs slow.

Mnasubiria bajeti ya kuwaletea maisha bora?

Mzee wa Kujitoa

NASIKIA wiki ijayo ndipo mtakapotusomea bajeti. Mzee wa Kujitoa natamani ningekuwa ndiye ninaandaa hiyo bajeti. Bajeti inayoandaliwa na serikali iliyokuwepo madarakani tangu uhuru unatarajia yatakuwepo yapi mapya? Kwani baada ya kuambiwa kwamba mnaletewa maisha bora kwa kila mmoja wenu ipo siku mlishaona bajeti ya kuwaletea hayo maisha bora? Miye simo ila nawaapia msiwe na ndoto ya maisha bora kwa bajeti inayotarajia kuwasilishwa.

Mtakuwaje na maisha bora wakati hawatakuwa tayari kupunguza fedha kwenye fuko la matumizi ambayo sisi twadhani siyo ya lazima? Maisha bora yatakuja vipi wakati wanagoma posho za wabunge zisiondolewe? Kuna mijitu inashangaza kinoma, eti wanasema posho ni lazima kwa kuwa wabunge wanafanya kazi.

Nani kakataa kwamba wanafanya kazi? Lakini si wanalipwa mishahara kwa kufanya kazi? Na kazi yao si pamoja na kuhudhuria vikao vya bunge? Wapo wachache wanaolalamika kwamba kuna gharama za malazi. Ikifika hapo nadhani tuwajengee hosteli tu walale huko wabunge wote huko.

Posho ya kikao wakati kikao ni sehemu ya kazi? Kwani ni siri kwamba kuna maofisa wengi wa serikali wanamaliza muda mrefu kwenye vikao vyenye posho wakati wameajiriwa pamoja na mambo mengine kufanya hivyo vikao. Mnashangaa sana. Hivi itakuwaje kila daktari akisema kabla ya kudunga sindano au kufanya uapsuaji naye anataka posho?

Wakili kabla ya kukanyaga kortini naye aseme anataka posho? Mwalimu kabla ya kuingia darasani naye atake posho? Si mmeamua kwamba kila kazi inahitaji posho inayojitegemea mbali na mshahara? Kwa mtaji huo mnatarajie muwe na bajeti itakayowanyanyua walalahoi? Mie huko simo kabisa watu wangu. Simo!

Mnatarajia bajeti itakayowaletea maisha bora kwa mbwembwe hizi za wakubwa? Eti unahitaji mtoyota mkubwa kama Vx kukutoa Mbezi au Masaki kwenda ofisni mtaa wa Samora? Si huo kama si upotevu wa fedha mwadhani ni kitu gani? Kwani hamjui kwamba migari hii inanyonya mafuta kama haina akili nzuri vile?

Wanaochimba mafuta wenyewe wala ahawaitumii kwa kiwango chenu. Bila kuwa na bajeti itakayoweka kando matumizi yasiyo yala zima ya magari ya kifahari na kuzuia ununuzi wa magari mapya ujue imekula kwetu. Wacha nijitoe humo.

Kama hamna nyongeza ya mshahara inayoendana na hali ya maisha bajeti ijayo itaacha kuwa ya majonzi kwenu? Nawauliza enyi walimwengu, bei ya unga wa mahindi ni shilingi ngapi leo? Kwa wengi wetu siku hizi nyama ishakuwa ni anasa, labda tuzikute kwenye sherehe au kwenye sambusa ya nyama. Nani anamudu leo kununua kilo ya nyama kwa huu mshahara wa sasa?

Kijiweni kwetu tayari wanaita nyama ni chakula cha kifisadi. Hapo sijazungumzia sukari na mafuta ya kupikia. Nazungumzia haya ya kupikia tu, hayo ya petrol na dizeli nikiyafikiria natetemeka. Huko simo miye.

Nasema kaeni mmejikunyata mkisikiliza bajeti lakini siwapi moyo wa matumaini. Unadhani katika bajeti hii kutakuwa na nyongeza katika matumizi ya dispensary ya kijijini kwenu? Kwani mwaka huu ni mwaka wa uchaguzi? Miye simo. Jiandaeni kufika kwenye vituo vya afya na haspitali na kukuta bohari za dawa zikiwa tupu. Mbona tushazoea hali hiyo? Sana sana kitakachoongezeka kipya ni fedha za kununulia bajaji za akina mama wajawazito. Hiyo naona ndio ahadi rahisi zaidi kutekelezeka.

Kama kwa mawazo yenu mnatarajia kuona bajeti ya mwaka huu ikionyesha utekelezaji wa ahadi za kampeni naamini mnajisumbua. Kwamba katika bajeti hii tukute huko fedha za kununua meli mpya, kujenga viwanja vya ndege na mambo kama hayo? Nasema sahau, isitoshe bado kuna miaka mingine minne! Mnabisha hata hilo? Sisi si nitaifa changa sasa kinawauma nini kuwa na bajeti finyu?

Kama tungekuwa tumeweza kudhibiti dhahabu yetu na kuitumia wenyewe walau hapo kingeeleweka. Mnazungumzia uwepo wa dhahabu ardhini bila luzungumzia uondoshwaji wa hiyo dhahabu? Mtashangaa sana hadi watu wawashangae kwa nini mnashangaa.
Kumbe ninyi mlitaka eti na ile bajeti ya vitafunwa iondolewe? Hamjui hivyo vitafunwa vinatumika wakati wakubwa wakitafakari namna ya kuwaondolea umaskini katika vikao ambavyo wahudhuriaji wanalipwa posho hata kama ndio kazi yao inayowalipa mshahara? Mnadhani mazingaombwe yamekwisha duniani?
Nawaambia isikilizeni kwa umakini sana bajeti ijayo halafu kando yenu muwe na zile ahadi za uchaguzi uone kama kuna uwiano. Kwani siku zote kuhaidi si ni rahisi kuliko kutekeleza? Mnabisha nini? Kamuulzieni anko Ben alimaanisha nini aliposema sera za chama nambari wahedi hazitekeleziki. Kama kawaida mimi huko simo hata siku moja miye.

Hizi bajeti ambazo zinategemea pia wafadhili nazo zina mizozo yake. Kwani hamjui anayepiga ngoma ndiye anayeamua mdundo? Sasa sisi si tuna miaka 50 ya kuwa huru? Kuwa huru wakati bajeti yetu haiwezi kusimama bila kupitisha kapun kwa wafadhili? Hivi kinachotufanya tuwategemee hao watu wanaojiita wabia wetu wa maendeleo ni kipi hasa? Wana akili kuliko sisi? Wana rasilimali kuliko sisi? Ukitoa jibu sahihi utakuwa katika hatari ya kuwa umetukana. Ngoja nikae kimya kabla hajamipiga makofi.

Bajeti tegemezi inaweza kweli kuwa bajeti ya kuleta maendeleo kwa watu wetu? Mambo mengine ninyi yaoneni tu lakini mistake kuyajua undani wake. Maisha bora yanayotegemea tabasamu la wazungu mbona ni kitu kisiachoaminika kama wingu kwenye upepo? Asiyejua maana usimpe maana, mwenye akili anaelewa. Mimi huko simo kabisa tena wala msiniguse. Sijasema kitu miye.

Siku mkitaka bajeti ya kutubadilisha sisi akina yakhe lazima kwanza ufisadi uwe umetokomea, na maliasili yetu tunaifaidi wenyewe. Naona vuguvugu limeanza, maisha ni makali kinoma lakini panapokaribia kuchwa ndipo usiku unakuwa mzito zaidi. Miye simo kabisa kwenye haya yote wala msinitaje.

How To Get Fit Being At Home

Fitness is one thing that helps the overall development of a person; one feels encouraged to go to parties or for outings. Fitness even helps a person gain more confidence and believe in himself. The key to fitness is having a balanced diet as well as to indulge in regular exercise. There may be a time constraint where one may feel going to a fitness club a bit hectic. But still fitness can be attained being at home following proper exercising schedule or doing yoga for about 45 minutes a day.

There are so many remedies that can help a person getting a fit body by just doing so little. One thing that certainly helps with the digestive system of a person is drinking about 1 litre of water as soon as he wakes up in the morning. It keeps the stomach clean and reduces the chances of getting any kind of infection in the stomach. A morning walk for about 5 to 6 kms comes in very handy as it helps in loosing the extra weight in the body as well as helps with the respiratory system as fresh air goes in the lungs.

A speed of walking should be nearly 1.5 times as for normal walking as it really helps in reducing the weight. An alternative for the morning walk is yoga which can be done for about 45 days in the morning which also greatly helps with the respiratory system and certainly helps with the overall fitness of the body.

There are few exercises that don’t require any exercising equipment and can be done easily not even requiring much space. Even exercise equipment like elliptical trainer or an exercising cycle can be brought at home which can be used on daily basis. Elliptical trainer can be used at home for a brisk walk or jogging or even running. It remains stationary and the equipment can be used to burn specific number of calories or for certain amount of time. An elliptical trainer can be used by any person of any age group. An exercising cycle works the same as a bicycle but remains stationary which can be used either for some specific time or for some distance.

Some other exercises like lying down on the floor and trying to touch the feet with the hands while the legs remain straight, push ups, using a rope for jumping and standing with legs wide open and trying to touch the feet both straight as well as sideways. Giving about 1 hour time in the morning or in evening for exercising helps the body get in shape as well as keeps the body fit. Very small things can keep a body fit and all that matters is if one gives it some time or not. In addition to this one can also indulge in playing any outdoor game like badminton, basketball, football in order to attain fitness.

Dr. Oz's 100 Weight Loss Tips | The Dr. Oz Show

Today's Dr. Oz episode is comprised of audience members and guests who have all lost 100+ pounds... SUPER inspirational! Many of the tips shared gave me new ideas on how to better approach my journey. I hope you all find them useful

1. Automate your eating by planning your meals ahead of time. That way you're less likely to make an unhealthy last-minute food choice.
2. Oats are your friends! Eating a cup of oatmeal in the morning will prevent you from gorging in the afternoon.
3. Foods with healthy fats such as olives, salmon and walnuts help you feel satisfied.
4. Skipping meals can cause your body to go into a fat-storing starvation mode, making it harder to burn calories.
5. Got nuts with nuts. Eating a handful of nuts will help you stay full. Try soaking them in water for a different texture.
6. Use meditation to help you cope with chronic stress, which can lead you to crave feel-good carbs.
7. You may be used to fried foods but there are other, sometimes healthier, ways to cook including: roasting, steaming, poaching, baking, braising and broiling.
8. Do your grocery shopping with a list and a time limit; that way, you're less likely to stray into the processed foods section.
9. Don't confuse thirst with hunger. Drink a glass of water when you feel hungry to see if that's what you're really craving.
10. When out at a restaurant, ask the server to hold the bread, snack mix or chips and salsa that might come before the meal. If you're hungry, you'll be tempted.
11. Tired of eating your salad on a plate? Fill a whole wheat pita with salad and a splash of lemon for a twist.
12. You might do better to replace an occasional dinner with a nice roll in the hay. Healthy sex may help control the amount of food you eat and it's great exercise.
13. Create emergency packs filled with healthy foods such as nuts, fruits or sliced vegetables to help you avoid unhealthy temptations.
14. Add red pepper flakes to your pantry. When eaten early in the day, red pepper lowers the amount of food you'll eat later.
15. Odds are you're eating too fast. Try holding a conversation while having a meal so you're not gulping down more than you need to feel full.
16. Take a brisk walk before lunch or dinner. Not only will you get in some exercise, you're less likely to choose something unhealthy after a little movement.
17. Looking for the benefits of salmon but you don't feel comfortable cooking fish? Try canned salmon as a simple and affordable alternative.
18. Are your dishes too big? A healthy dinner should fit on a 9-inch plate. You may find that kid-sized plates are more appropriately sized to feed an adult!
19. Never eat any snack food out of the box, carton or bag it came in. You're less likely to overeat if you separate snacks into appropriate fist-sized servings.
20. Boost your metabolism with some green tea or chili peppers.
21. Get your Zzzzzs. Sleep deprivation alters levels of hormones in the body that regulate hunger, causing an increase in appetite.
22. Muscle burns at least four times as many calories as fat does, so try twenty minutes of strength straining two to three times a week.
23. Decaf coffee is a great low-calorie fluid when you're having cravings (and a great source of antioxidants).
24. Eating liquid-based foods such as natural smoothies and low-sodium soup can help you cut back on calories yet feel full.
25. A pedometer can help keep track of your steps. If you're not getting 10,000 steps a day, you’re not moving enough.
26. Natural applesauce is an excellent dip for fruits such as bananas and melons.
27. Take every opportunity to move around, even in small ways. Studies show fidgety people tend to be skinnier.
28. Identify the emotional triggers that lead you to seek unhealthy comfort food. Picture your goal weight the next time a trigger strikes to help you resist temptation.
29. Use a vegetable bean dip such as hummus instead of ranch dressing or a fatty cream-based dip.
30. People who regularly weigh themselves and keep track of their progress in a journal are more likely to lose weight.
31. Use a dash of cinnamon to give fruits such as bananas and melons a richer dessert feel without the sugar.
32. Give your protein extra low-calorie flavor by adding a salsa or chutney instead of a gooey cream sauce.
33. Distracted dining will get you in trouble. Avoid eating in front of a television or in a movie theater, as you're bound to consume more calories.
34. Pass on pop. You'll be amazed by how much weight you drop by simply switching to water.
35. Beware of "fat-free" or "zero trans fats" foods as you could be trading fats for huge amounts of sugar or sodium.
36. Try drinking skim milk at breakfast instead of juice. Overweight people who drank skim milk for breakfast ate fewer calories
37. Sugarless chewing gum can suppress your appetite in a pinch.
38. Snack attack! Puree peaches, berries or pears for a sweet spread to go on pita chips.
39. If you're having trouble getting started, make a small move such as starting an eating log or buying walking shoes. You're three times more likely to follow through if you start with small gestures such as these.
40. Always have vegetables on hand. Sauté a big bag of frozen mixed vegetables in olive oil and garlic. Add some red pepper or turmeric for additional flavor and separate into portion-sized containers for the fridge.
41. Edamame (soy beans) are a great low-cost snack. Look for them in the frozen foods section.
42. Soups can be both filling and comforting. Try making a garden or bean soup with low-salt broth and store in portion-sized cups for later.
43. Save time and money during the week by buying lean protein such as chicken breasts in bulk and cooking a week's worth on Sunday night.
44. Save the kitchen and the dining room table for cooking and eating. Try not to use it as a place to do work or other activities, or you may be tempted to eat more.
45. If food was your only source of pleasure, make sure to reconnect with other things you enjoy -- music, sports, volunteer work or movies, for example.
46. Try to have a little lean protein with each meal, as protein tends to be more satisfying than carbs or fats.
47. Think ahead to how you'll eat and exercise on the weekends. It's easy to get too relaxed on Saturdays and Sundays, but healthy living is a 7-day-a-week endeavor.
48. Dump the junk food. If you want to avoid temptation, make sure you clean out the fridge and the pantry
49. When you eat calorie-friendly fruits and vegetables that are in season, they tend to taste better and you're more likely to enjoy them.
50. People who eat breakfast have a better shot at losing and maintaining weight loss.
51. Replace your scale with a tape measure. Aim for 32 1/2 inches or less for women and 35 inches or less for men.
52. Make sure you check food labels and avoid anything with more than 4 grams of sugar, especially high-fructose corn syrup, per serving.
53. Eat a fiber-filled apple before a meal to help you feel full faster.
54. Opt for peanut butter or almond butter spreads instead of cream cheese or butter.
55. Remember these five essential smoothie ingredients: frozen berries, a banana, skim milk, a teaspoon of honey and a teaspoon of psyllium seed husks.
56. Researchers found that dieters who ate eggs in the morning were less hungry than those who ate carb-heavy meals.
57. The omega-3 fatty acids in salmon may dial up your body's ability to burn fat, especially if you add some exercise.
58. A Mediterranean diet not only comes with heart benefits, studies show it leads to more weight loss than low-fat diets.
59. Replace your regular pasta noodles with whole wheat pasta for a more filling meal.
60. When eating out, ask your server to point out the healthiest options on the menu.
61. You don't have to make a three-digit number your weight loss goal. Aim for a certain dress size or waist measurement.
62. Go lean with bean protein. Beans are an affordable and healthy alternative to meats and are wonderfully filling.
63. Energize plain-tasting proteins such as eggs or chicken with metabolism-boosting chili pepper sauce.
64. Try a plain Greek yogurt with frozen berries for a pre-workout boost.
65. Turn dinner into a healthy lunch the next day by wrapping your lean leftovers in a whole wheat wrap. Add a little Dijon mustard or curry powder for added flavor.
66. Eat a rainbow of colors. Have at least one brightly colored fruit or vegetable in each meal, and, if appropriate, eat the skins -- that's where you'll find a powerhouse of antioxidants.
67. Make an office snack box of your own so you're not tempted by your colleague's candy bowl. Fill it with small individually packaged portions of soy chips, almonds and dried fruit.
68. Make an office snack box of your own so you're not tempted by your colleague's candy bowl. Fill it with small individually packaged portions of soy chips, almonds and dried fruit.
69. If you're 'cooking' food in the microwave, chances are you're eating unhealthy packaged foods. If you must microwave, consider soy chicken patties, veggie burgers or steamer vegetables and brown rice.
70. Make your wardrobe match your goals. As you lose weight donate the clothes that no longer fit you as an incentive to stay on track.
71. Pick up a 5- or 10-pound weight at the gym and visualize that weight coming off. Holding the weight in your hands helps bring home just how heavy even 5 pounds of extra fat can be.
72. If you find yourself at a weight loss plateau, up the duration of your exercise routine by five minutes.
73. Pounding out your meat will help healthier portions go a longer way visually, and it's good stress relief.
74. Silken tofu makes a wonderful replacement for cream in some recipes.
75. Save 85 calories just by swapping mustard for mayonnaise in a sandwich.
76. Do your best to ensure you're not eating after 7 o'clock at night. You're more likely to make unhealthy choices and less likely to sleep as well after a late meal.
77. Try a pasta-less spaghetti by mixing shredded zucchini, veggie meatballs and raw tomato sauce seasoned with a dash of zesty oregano.
78. Fresh herbs can really zing up a healthy meal. Try growing some in the kitchen using a strawberry pot. Preserve the flavor by adding fresh herbs at the end of the cooking process
79. Fast food is salty food. If you cut back on the salt, in a few weeks you'll be able to better taste the natural salts in food and may not crave the junk as much as you used to.
80. The rub on ground turkey is that it's dry. Add some olive oil and finely blended onions to a turkey burger or turkey meatball to enhance its juiciness.
81. If you're trying to lose weight with your significant other, pack each other's lunches. The lunchbox surprises will keep the both of you motivated.
82. If you're eating out, make salad the appetizer. Most starters are fried and come with unhealthy dips or sauces.
83. Savory 'umami' ingredients such as mushrooms, low-sodium soy, asparagus and olives can help you feel full and add an earthy, home-y quality to your healthy-dishes.
84. Make it a point to use the steps whenever possible. Use the bathroom on a different floor at work, take the stairs at the bus station, the airport or the mall.
85. Try baking apple slices as a healthy alternative to potato chips.
86. Eating water-rich foods such as melons, tomatoes and celery can help fill you up without adding too many calories to your day.
87. Avocados can be your secret weight loss partners. They're high in fiber and healthy fats, giving you a meaty-tasting meat alternative.
88. A handful of unsalted pumpkin seeds make for a healthy mid-day snack. They're rich in magnesium, which helps lower blood pressure.
89. Keeping good posture will not only strengthen your core, but will also add a small extra-calorie burn, because you're working slightly harder to maintain the position.
90. Cravings can sneak up on you when you're tired. Try taking a nap if you feel yourself wanting some junk food.
91. Share your weight loss goals with your friends and family. Make it a positive life change and ask for their encouragement.
92. Take a photo of yourself each week so you can see your physical transformation.
93. Store-bought salad dressings can be packed with calories. Make your own vinaigrette and store it in a small spray bottle to coat your greens without over-dressing them.
94. Yoga may be relaxing but you can also get a good workout. An hour of yoga can burn up to 350 calories.
95. Get familiar with quinoa -- a wonderful grain that's easy to cook and goes great with sautéed vegetables or mushrooms.
96. Ditch the mayo, cheese and top bun if you want to scrape off 250 calories from a restaurant sandwich.
97. Resistance bands are a comfortable and affordable at-home exercise option for strength straining.
98. Use the freezer to add some extra oomph to summer foods. Freeze grapes for some bite-sized delights. Or get a popsicle mold and freeze some Greek yogurt with berries.
99. Wrap up any extra food you've cooked before you sit down to a meal so you're not tempted to get seconds.
100. Take a 30-second break in the middle of your meal. Evaluate just how hungry you still are before getting back to your food.

We've got this!
