The main cause for overweight is overeating

Not doing any physical work often leads to overweight. But eating more food than what you would spend while working is a good reason for overweight too. When the body can't burn te energy from the foot, it converts that into fat and stores it away inside the cells of the body. Nature made all living cells this way so that the fat in those cells can be burnt at times of famine or during other natural problems when food wouldn't be available. But these days humans are better organized and have managed to maintain a regular supply of food, so they don't really need to be fat anymore.

Reducing the food intake can be bad for people psychologically. They eat less, and they still feel hungry. This can cause anger, fatigue and stuff, though the food intake has been enough to do the day's work.

This problem can be helped with appetite suppressants, which suppress your appetite and let you eat only what is needed for your body.

How the internet has changed the world

Until about 15 to 20 years ago, everything had to be done by a personal visit. You had to pay your bills by visiting every single office that you owe money to in person, if you had to enquire about things you had to call people or visit them, and the vendors always had this problem of answering each and every call they received, explaining things to them.

The internet has changed this completely. You no longer have to call people to find out about stuff. Everyone has a website in which product descriptions are placed. This saves a lot of money on phone calls, and the company that offers the product or service can remain in peace without having to spend excess money on hiring a good talker who can market the product on phone. Well, yes, business happens on phone still, but it has changed a lot, as calls are now brief.

People can now pay bills anytime just with a few clicks of buttons on screen. No travelling, no queues, no smiles, no frowns. No need to look at anyones face or try to look busy so that your work is done faster.

You also no longer have to tolerate an agent who is glad to get rid of a non selling policy to you. You can now get an insurance quote online which is quite accurate, and offered without any hypes that a sales agent would usually do.

The Surprising performance of a BSNL ADSL Modem

I have been using the same modem for about a year now, and for the past few days since I got my unlimited data transfer internet connection, I am surprised at the work that it is doing. Im downloading all sorts of stuff, and my computer is plugged to a 2 hour backup power supply as well, and Pondicherry not being a very bad place wehre power goes down for over 2 hours at a streatch, the computer and the modem have literally been running for over 2 months at a streatch now since july 1st when my plan changed to unlimited 512 kbps from 2 Mbps limited.

If you are outside India, you might laugh at this cos probably you might be on a 10 Mbps connection while reading this, but in India owning a 512 Kbps connection is like owning a Rolls Royce. I sit before this computer for about 6 hours a day, and therefore the AC runs here for 6 hours a day, and for the remaining 18 hours, the door is locked, and so are all windows, and the heat is almost unbearable when I enter the room in the evening after office. No AC, no ventilation, and all the heat that is released by the cpu and the modem have no means of getting out of the room.

Well, anyways, I am quite happy with the performance of the modem, as I know that the computer has to perform, after all it is a server quality cpu that I have got, and the monitor is always turned off, as I use it only when I am working on the PC. The modem is working in its full effecienty round the clock for the past 2 months, during which time it has not been turned off even once, and BSNL too has been able to supply data all this while (i think i am sure that there has been no downtime or anything), though at the office it is a different story.

Blogger to WordPress

The one thing that google could not beat was bloggers. Though it has created the page rank strategy, which is something that assigns a rank to the quality of the blog, its popular website blogger.com is not very popular these days. Only loosers who dont know how to create a blog and stuff usually go to blogger.com, and wiser people like me stick to wordpress scripts hosted by oneself. I dotn go to wordpress.com, but I download the scripts from wordpress.org, and have it hosted on my own server pointed by own domain.

Well, Mymo.in is a multiuser blog just like wordpress.com where people can actually come over and signup for their own blogs. What did you think I am doing in Pondicherry? Just sitting around and taking massage therapy all the while? I am contributing a good amount to blogging myself, and helping people to get their own blogs in different domains than the boring so called popular ones.

Ebay’s page at Uncyclopedia

Uncyclopedia is a website that is a parody of wikipedia, and it makes everything sound funny. And the page that it had on ebay made me laugh my intestines out. Well, ebay is a website where you could find allsorts of rubbish, to stuff that is of very high value that could make excellent personalized gifts such as rare coins, stamps, currency notes and stuff.

Ebay is a place where regular sellers sell things such as home appliances, electronics, apparels, gadgets and stuff. And occassional sellers who want to sell of their used things would choose ebay too.

To bring up a dog

People get puppies just for the fun of watching them grow. Atleast because their kids prefer to play with real puppies rather than teddy bears. Women like to play with their pussies. Pussy Cats I mean, what did you think. Boys are more fond of bull dogs and stuff.

Well, Growing up a puppy or a pussy isn't an easy job. You need to train them, feed them well, groom them, buy the right kind of pet supplements and take them to pet shows once in a while and make sure that all that time and money that you spent pays off, and you have a good time.

A limitation in Power

There is always a limitation of availablity of power in all homes and buildings. You cannot draw more than a preset amount of power from the supply lines. If you do, a fuse will blow, and you will need to get the engineers to come to your place to fix the fuse. So if you are throwing an extravagant party, where you will be putting up a lot of lights and music and stuff, the power that comes in the mains might not be sufficient. And for the extra power, it is not easy to get any sanction from the power department, and for a one night's stand, generators should be all that is needed to help you out.

The blog of a blogger who blogs

Smoking is banned in my office, and though I am allowed it, I don't intend to break it. So I go to a near by shop that sells cigarettes for a smoke. The shop keeper is really talkative. He can talk about anything. Though he has a very low social status, he is well updated from the news papers, and can always talk about almost everything.

I rarely go there alone, but since today the office was minimally staffed, and I am the only head in the office today, I had to go there alone. The shopkeeper took up the subject of dirty open drainage and mosquitos. He kept on talking and talking and talking, that I forgot what the work was that I left behind in the office.

I was hoping to recommend that he buy a computer, though I know that he will not be able to afford it, and write all the stuff that he talks to the people who he manages to corner. Thats what a blog is about. Write about the things you talk to one or 2 people, and the whole world will read about it.

Imagine a life without a Cellphone

I cant imagine a life without a cellphone. And above all, I cant imagine my life without the 3 phones that I use every day. Without even one of them, I feel dead stuck. All 3 numbers are important. Why can't I manage with 1? Well, I dont know, I should be able to, but I do have 3 numbers. And 3 numbers means that I need 3 phones in my pocket. And I cant do with just any other phone. I need phones with all features. And I dont have the time to go stand at a shop and compare the features fo these phones and waste my time as well as the shop keeper's who might be misguiding me if I don't look at things closely. What do I do? I would choose to buy things online. And why would I do that? Well, online shops are usually cheaper, a lot cheaper than the regular stores. Why? They dont have to spend money on the show room and its running cost, and all that they have to do is run a warehouse, and employ people who would take care of the packaging and handling of the stuff, and have a tie up with a logistics company who would deliver the phones to the destination as per the requirement of the client and the merchant. And it is online where you can find the top free phones available from any cell phone operator in the country.

Let us say you are looking for at&t cell phones, which you need with a truck load of features. What do you do? You just visit bestincellphones.com, and look at all that they have got to offer. Each cell phone is listed out with all the features that it has got to offer, and you get to compare all the models that are available there. When that is there, you dont have any difficulty in deciding what you want. Women like pink phones, and I prefer Alltel phones. And the good thing is that this website is about to list 100s of new phones from July 1st to the 5th, and the buyers also have a chance to win a free cell phone. And also you have a good chance to save a lot of money while buying online.

You will find good razr deals, which is the slimmest and sexiest flip phone from Motorola.

Credit Cards Club

You don't like credit cards? Neither do I. But I do have about 7 credit cards with me, and Im sure that this number would definitely be growing involuntarily, and so would the credit limits. As these days, credit cards are not a luxury, but a basic necessity. You need purchase protection for what ever you buy, you need a bank to authorize a transaction, and credit cards are always more secure than carrying cash around, and you have a team waiting always to serve you 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

However, you should consider being quite choosy when applying for credit cards. There are huge numbers of credit cards providers out there, and naturally, to be in the competition, they do provide a wide range of cards with specific features such as cash back cards, low interest cards, balance transfer cards and stuff. Thanks to the internet, there are several websites that give you a clear idea on what all types of cards are available to choose from, called credit card comparision sites, such as creditcardsclub.com
