mobile do's and dont's

Experts say keeping phones away from the body can reduce potential risks of radiation.

THOSE concerned by the new that mobiles may increase the risk of brain cancer have been urged not to throw away their mobiles just yet.

Health experts say following some simple steps can reduce possible radiation risk.

- Keep your mobile in a bag or anywhere other than your pocket or on your body.

- Reduce potential radiation exposure by texting, emailing instead of calling.

- Children with fragile brains should especially avoid using them for hours on end.

- Use a wireless handset. Moving the handset 20cm from your body can reduce radiation by up to 98 per cent.

- Hold the phone away from you while dialling can also help as this emits the most radiation and avoid using it when reception is on one bar as it chews through the power.

- Use a 3G or newer model smartphone.

The WHO put mobile phone radiation on a par with about 240 other agents for which evidence of harm is uncertain, including talcum powder, petrol engine exhaust and coffee.

Professor Bruce Armstrong, from the University of Sydney, who worked on the report with 30 other experts, told the ABC more research was needed before any real link can be made between mobile phone use and giloma, a malignant form of brain cancer.

The cancer, which affects roughly seven in 100,000 Australians a year, is rarely curable and has a low prognosis rate.

Of 10,000 Americans diagnosed each year with malignant gliomas, about half are alive one year after diagnosis, and 25 per cent after two years.

He said researchers studied radiowave activity on those who used phones the heaviest and for the longest period, and health risks for average users was "really quite small".

The advice may come as a relief to heavy mobile user Aussies who are among the highest number of people to own the devices in the world, according to online mobile phone store mobicity.

We have roughly 22 million phones, out of a global total of 5 billion, which equates to an average of one per person, the same as Brazil which has a total of 194 million phones.

The United Arab Emirates has the highest average number of phones per person with 1.95, way ahead of their Russian cousins who have an average of 1.3 phones per persons, and the UK, 1.2 per person.

While heavily populated China only has 0.62 phones per person it has roughly 842 million all up.

And it seems our nation's teens are leading the charge with 83 per cent owning one, and an estimated 31 per cent of these being children.

Tasmanians have the largest numbers of phones at 41 per cent, followed by Western Australians 33 per cent and South Australians 32 per cent.

ants amazing facts

1. The animal with the largest brain in proportion to its size is the ant. They are the smartest species of insects with about 250,000 brain cells.
2. The ant, when intoxicated, will always fall over to its right side.
3. The Slave-Maker ant is so named because it raids the nest of other ants and steals their pupae. Once the pupae hatch, they are made to work as slaves.
4. Ants make up 1/10 of the total world animal tissue. The total biomass of all the ants on Earth is about equal to the total biomass of all the people.

5. Workers in an ant colony only live for about 45-60 days, but a colony's queen can live up to 20 years.
6. By combining force of numbers with organized aggression, ants have become the greatest insect killers on Earth -- even of their own kind.
7. Ants began farming about 50 million years before humans thought to raise their own crops.
8. Wood ants squirt acid from the end of their abdomens.
9. The legs of the ant are very strong so they can run very quickly. If a man could run as fast for his size as an ant can, he could run as fast as a racehorse.
10. Ants can lift 20 times their own body weight.

Flat Stomach For You !! tips

Developing a lean, flat stomach takes time and patience, especially when it comes to those last few kilograms in those hard to lose places. There is only one way to lose fat in the so-called 'stubborn areas,' and that is with the correct combination strength training (with a extra focus on mid-section), cardiovascular exercise (short, hard workouts), and stable blood sugar (keeps you from adding additional fat and makes it easier for the body to use body fat for fuel).

Spot Reduction is a Myth - The first thing you need to realize is that it is impossible to 'spot reduce' fat from one specific part of the body. Fat loss occurs systemically, meaning that you can't control where the fat comes from. When you burn fat for energy, you will draw it from all areas of the body, and the first place you tend to put it on will be the last place it comes off.

Cardio, cardio, cardio - Doing all the abs exercises in the world will do nothing if you have a layer of fat covering it. Doing strength training, or lifting weights, would help, but not as much as aerobic exercise. If you want to add some ab exercises in after the cardio, that's great, but be sure to work your whole torso, not just the upper abs — that includes the lower abs, lower back and the muscles that wrap around your sides.

For example, Walking, jogging, bicycling, elliptical exercise and stair climbing are all great fat burners. Most give up early in the workout. During the first 10 minutes of aerobic activity, glycogen (stored carbohydrates) is the primary fuel source. Because you don't burn significant amounts of fat until glycogen stores are depleted, the key to maximum fat loss is to work out aerobically for 30-60 minutes continuously per session.

Diet – Its best to stay away from fried food and too many sugary desserts. Abdominal fat loss is a 50% exercise, 50% nutrition combination. Regardless of how much you workout, if the number of calories you take in is greater than the amount you burn, you'll still put on abdominal fat.

Eat Small Meals Regularly - You should try and spread your calories out into five small meals a day instead of 2 or 3 big ones so that you don't overeat in one feeding.

Give it Time – If you want to have a flat stomach in 3 weeks, forget it. Losing fat takes time, and it's unhealthy to lose too much weight too fast. Gradual weight loss is healthier, and more likely to be sustained over time. Go for a lifestyle change, something you can live with for the rest of your life, or you will just yo-yo. It's a marathon, not a sprint.

How to Keep Teeth White Naturally

There are many effective methods of teeth whitening available, but some come with heavy price tags. Here are some steps you can take at home to whiten teeth naturally without breaking the bank.

Things You'll Need:

• Straw
• Toothbrush
• Lemon Juice
• Salt
• Baking soda
• Hydrogen peroxide
• Strawberries

Step 1:
Limit your consumption of drinks that stain tooth enamel. A few of these include coffee, tea and red wine. If you simply can't cut back on these beverages, consider drinking them though a straw to limit the amount of liquid that actually comes in contact with teeth.

Step 2:
Brush your teeth immediately after eating, especially if eating foods that stain easily, such as berries.

Step 3:
Rub raw strawberries on your teeth, preferably pureed. There is an enzyme in strawberries that acts as a whitening agent. You'll want to brush and rinse after applying the strawberries to remove the natural sugars and acids they may leave behind.

Step 4:
Eat crunchy foods that require a lot of chewing such as carrots, celery, broccoli and apples. These foods are abrasive and will remove built up plaque, which dulls the appearance of teeth.

Step 5:
Dip your toothbrush directly into baking soda and brush. The results are worth the lousy taste.

Step 6:
Combine lemon juice and one teaspoon of salt to make a paste-like substance. Brush your teeth and rinse. Again, not so pleasant on the palate, but your teeth will thank you.

Step 7:
Use hydrogen peroxide to brush your teeth. Dip your toothbrush into a small capful of the peroxide and brush as you would with regular toothpaste, being careful not to swallow. Rinse with water.

- Tips -

• Consider using one of the several whitening toothpastes on the market that have all-natural ingredients.
• Brushing after every meal and flossing regularly are the first steps in maintaining a healthy smile.
