So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Its All A Tangle Of Wires Under The Hood

By Enoobong Etuk


The owner of a chain of auto dealerships remarked to a customer that he has always had battles with mechanics concerning preventative maintenance on vehicles. Overall prevention is preferable when it comes to automotive maintenance and upkeep. Once the damage is done, parts repair and labor are more extensive than if the work or driving wear and tear is caught in the bud. To the credit of the repair shops of this auto dealership group, "customers just love these shops" and bookings are often some time into the future. Yet if a person goes to a small shop or even prefers to do the auto maintenance and repair work themselves - either for cost savings or simple enjoyment of a hobby one factor often forgotten or certainly not emphasized is "safety on the job".

First of all take the time to remove all jewelry such as rings, watches and bracelets before starting work. Do not wear loose fitting clothing, ties scarves or coats that might get dangled up in a pulley or drive belt. When working on vehicles its always a case of safety first and foremost. After all a major role of the Winnipeg Canada. fire department is in fire prevention. Its always best to pay attention to the "pros" in this case the professionals at respected as well as the factory trained techs and mechanics at truck & dealershipand lots. Safety does not cost , it pays when working on vehicles. Watch these people and note their procedures , routines and checks.

What are some safety precautions that backyard and do-it-yourself mechanics and budding service technicians should employ as a matter of standard procedure and course?

It has to be said and driven home to never ever run an engine inside a closed garage. You would think that this would be the first rule of auto maintenance and repair. Yet many try to get away with -"I will just run the motor for a second" is sometimes the refrain and excuse. . Buildup of dangerous and deadly CO, (that is Carbon Monoxide gas), and gas fumes are odorless and color and can be lethal. If you must run the engine, simply open the garage door or alternately vent the fumes outside with a length of tubing or hose. After all its not as if you are running a major multimillion dollar auto service and trades facility.

Similarly when workings with batteries always remember that they contain sulfuric acid, so treat them with great respect when handling them. Be careful not to upset the battery, or to spill acid on the automobile's finish when installing or removing a battery. Protect your hands with rubber gloves and your eyes with goggles. Corrosion on the outside of the battery case can leave an acid residue that will and can eat holes through clothing so it is best to not use Sunday best when doing battery work. Play it safe out there when working on and repairing autos.

Duracell Powerpacks

By Ray Hauser


Power outages and emergency power situations can arise at almost any time. Storms, earthquakes and other traumatic events can disrupt utility power causing havoc and inconvenience. Having portable, backup power can often mean the difference between a cold, dark house with no lights, heat or refrigeration and riding out the disaster with a few basic necessities.

Portable, backup power generators can help you survive the difficult conditions arising from a general utility outage. They're also great for outdoor events, camping trips, off-site construction and roadside emergencies. Having recourse to a reliable source of backup power can provide a sense of security and satisfaction.

Duracell Powerpacks were designed and engineered with these crucial needs and desires in mind. They can supply instant power at a moment's notice whenever it's required. Powerpacks can supply electricity to AC, DC and USB devices including TV's, radios, cell phones, computers, lights etc. These systems are so powerful they can even jump-start an automobile on a frosty morning.

The secret to the Powerpack is its power source. They utilize a sealed, rechargeable AGM (Absorption Glass Mat) battery to store energy. These batteries are easily recharged from a standard AC wall outlet or a DC source such as a cigarette lighter. Powerpacks can also be recharged with solar panels.

And since Powerpacks don't burn fuel, there are no toxic exhaust gases to deal with. These systems may be used safely indoors without risk of any hazards which is a nice advantage.

Powerpacks are also compact and lightweight. They're easy to move and setup. They fit comfortably in the trunk of a car or at the bottom of a closet. They're also wonderful companions to standby and portable generators.

Powerpacks come in three models including the Powerpack 600, the Powerpack 450 and the Powerpack 300. Each model has its own unique features and capabilities designed to meet various needs. These units have multiple outlets which can supply both AC and DC power to a number of different devices all at the same time.

The Powerpack 300 supplies three hundred watts of power and is capable of jump-starting a four cylinder engine. The Powerpack 450 provides four hundred and fifty watts of power and is able to jump-start four and six cylinder engines. The Powerpack 600 generates six hundred watts of power and is powerful enough to start an eight cylinder engine.

Powerpacks also have built-in safeguards such as overload and polarity safety detection to prevent charging, if the jumper cables are improperly connected to the wrong battery terminals. The Duracell Powerpack line of emergency, backup power systems is a truly amazing and useful piece of engineering technology.

Food, Anxiousness And Depression

By Donnell Belt


In our current society, there are lots of variables that can result in or contribute to anxiousness and depression. Certainly cash and work issues, connection and household problems, too as illness and loss of loved ones are main contributors to anxiousness and depression. Also, how we really feel about ourselves and treat ourselves contribute significantly to how we feel. Even in the worst of instances, if we are treating ourselves with compassion as opposed to self-judgment, we may be able to manage huge challenges without anxiety or depression. Furthermore, having the ability to turn to an inner source of spiritual guidance and comfort is vital to weathering the tough occasions.

Meals is an additional significant aspect that significantly impacts how we feel. Many people don't genuinely notice that what they put into their bodies affects how they really feel. They may well know that if they "sugar out" they might crash emotionally, or if they drink too much they are going to feel hung over, however they are frequently unaware of how other foods could possibly be generating anxiety and depression.

Within the more than 35 years that I've been a counselor, I've regularly encountered individuals whose anxiety and depression entirely cleared up by tuning into how meals was affecting them.

As an example, Marnie found that dairy, wheat and sugar kept her up at night. She would wake up at around 3:00 within the morning with intense anxiousness, and will be tired and depressed the following day. By experimenting about and cutting out various foods, she discovered that she slept fine when she stopped consuming dairy, wheat and sugar. All her nighttime anxiety vanished and she was no longer tired and depressed.

Joel discovered that his sleeplessness and resulting depression was a direct outcome of caffeine from coffee, tea, chocolate and soft drinks. He had not realized how much caffeine he was in fact consuming until I recommended that he reduce out all caffeine and see what happened to his sleep. Following a week of headaches from caffeine withdrawal, he was sleeping soundly for the initial time in years and no longer felt depressed.

Adrienne discovered that her feelings of anxiety and depression, that had been with her most of her life, disappeared after she began consuming only organic foods. Her program was so sensitive towards the pesticides and meals additives in non-organic food that she couldn't eat them without having feeling anxious and depressed.

Alex, who periodically struggled with depression, inadvertently discovered that drinking raw milk from an organic dairy had a entirely various impact on him than pasteurized milk. He was going to Los Angeles and went into a well being meals store exactly where he discovered that he could buy raw dairy products (which are outlawed in most other states). He located that the raw milk gave him much more power and elevated his mood. He also found that, whilst he was lactose intolerant with pasteurized milk, he had no difficulties with raw milk. Now he has his raw milk, cheese, and butter shipped frozen to Wyoming, and no longer struggles with depression.

Over and over once again my consumers, that have selected to tune into how food was affecting them, have found just how much their feelings have been becoming affected by food. Numerous of my consumers have learned that even a little sugar brings them down. Sugar consumes so many crucial nutrients as the body attempts to process it that it could really be regarded as a poison. How many men and women really take "Sugar Blues" seriously?

A hundred years ago, when people naturally ate non-processed and organically grown food, they have been obtaining all of the nutrients they necessary. Now, most fruits, vegetables and grains are being grown on devitalized soil and over-processed on leading of it. Cows and sheep that had been when grass fed are getting fed pesticide-sprayed grains and given hormones to fatten them up. Consequently, significantly of our food not simply includes little nutrients, but has a lot of toxins at the same time. With out the vitamins, minerals, and a lot of other factors that all-natural, organic and grass-fed meals consists of, a lot of individuals endure deficiencies that will result in anxiousness and depression, too a numerous other illnesses.

I recently found out that the fat of raw organic dairy goods, specifically butter, consists of organic anti-inflammatory nutrients. I wonder if the large rise in arthritis and also other inflammatory situations is related to the pasteurizing of milk. Any inflammatory situation can surely contribute to anxiety and depression.

Meals is surely a significant aspect inside the rise of anxiety, depression and illness. Only you are able to do some thing about this by learning how you happen to be getting impacted by the foods you eat.
