Dental Care for Kids

2011-10-21T07:46:00.000-07:00

When was the first time my child can be brought to the dentist? Many parents ask how to treat their children's teeth? They care about it, but they do not know what the best to be done.

When baby's dental care begins?

Child dental care should begin as early as possible, although not yet visible teeth. Seeds baby tooth has actually been formed since the second trimester of pregnancy. At birth the baby already has 20 seeds of milk teeth. We can use a damp cloth to clean your baby's gums after a meal or drinking milk. This will inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria. When your child's teeth have started to appear, we can clean with a toothbrush or a child with a wet cotton at night. We must help children brush their teeth until approximately 7 years old child.

Babies can experience dental caries if the parent does not pay attention to the good habit of feeding. Giving a bottle to drink milk while sleeping babies is fun for the short term but the habit can damage your baby's teeth. When the sugar of milk or food on your baby's teeth, there was a reaction that can take the tooth enamel, a condition called Nursing Bottle Syndrome or Bottle Mouth. The signs will change the color of tooth enamel, dental cavities and retracts. So we should clean your baby's teeth after drinking or eating milk.

How to prevent cavities?

According to the American Dental Association, visit to the dentist can begin when a child aged 1 year. At this visit the dentist will explain how to brush your baby's teeth and dental examination. The next regular visits conducted every 6 months. Regular visits are useful for early detection of potential problems that cause caries / cavities and help reduce the fear of the child at the dentist.

When all the milk teeth have appeared in the mouth, the dentist can start treatment fluoridation. Fluoride protects tooth enamel so as to prevent dental caries or cavities. Cavities caused by bacteria and food residue left in the mouth after eating. If not cleaned, they react and produce acids that will soften the tooth enamel so cavities email. Regular use of fluoride will strengthen tooth enamel making it difficult to acid penetration .

Sometimes the content of fluorine in drinking water is less, then we can ask your dentist about fluoride supplements. Although toothpaste containing fluoride, it is not enough to protect your child's teeth. We must take care that the excessive intake of fluoride can cause tooth discoloration. Ask your dentist before taking fluoride for children.

Tooth discoloration can also be caused by certain antibiotics consumption in the long term medications and drugs that contain sugar. Parents should encourage children to brush teeth after taking the medication or rinse water, especially if the drug is consumed in the long term.

Sealant or coating on milk molars is also a preventive measure against dental caries. Sealants protect teeth from bacteria and food scraps that are difficult to reach on the contours of molars.

The worms enter through the pores of the skin, through the legs that do not use bare feet and step on the worm larvae or eggs, particularly hookworm.
Then the worms go into the veins, leading to the lungs. Worm intestine wall bite, lay eggs and live in the intestines, and did eat food that is digested in the gut.

Stress Cause Weight Gain?

2011-05-25T22:54:00.000-07:00

You hear it all the time, "don't eat that or you'll get fat" or "if you don't exercise, you're going to gain weight." The foods we eat or lack of exercise are most commonly associated with gaining weight. You would be hard pressed to find someone saying, "You better calm down or you're never going to lose all that weight." But the truth is that stress can and does make you fat.

The model of weight gain that most people are familiar with has to do with consuming too many calories. This model is still relevant for us when we talk about stress, but stress adds a twist to this. When we are under stress, especially prolonged stress (physical, emotional or environmental) our body's chemistry is changed. This change leads to unhealthy cravings for sweet and salty foods.

Why Salty and Sweet?

Modern humans have come up with new and unique ways of stressing themselves out. In the past, major stressors consisted of events such as food shortage, illness, pregnancy/child rearing, physical work, exposure to the elements and war. These events typically were not everyday experiences and our response was straightforward. Also, these events ended and we had time to recover. This is in addition to the fact that people in the past were very physically active.

Today we have traffic, cell phones, deadlines, noise pollution, picking the children up from school, degenerative diseases, loneliness, depression, war without end and each other to stress over. Physically we are not adapted to deal with all of this daily stress. Add to that, the fact that many people today are physically inactive and have poor diets and this is nothing less than a recipe for an expanding waistline.

Instead of reducing stressors, using stress reducing techniques or changing our response to stress (reframing), the tendency is to keep going and to self medicate using food. But why food?

The adrenal glands are responsible for our ability to adapt and cope with stress, but when we over burden them, they want a pick me up. Salt feeds the adrenal glands and sugar whips them (as does caffeine). These foods are the whip and the adrenal glands are the horse. This will keep a person going for a while, but these food cravings and the body's own chemistry will not only cause weight gain, but it can also cause all types of health issues as well.

Adrenaline, Cortisol and Serotonin

Adrenaline does not last long in the body and we quickly feel the "crash" after a "rush". This is when the food cravings set in.Many times most of the stress we are experiencing is self-inflicted. Either we are doing too much or our response to stress is unhealthy. There is only so much one can do in one day, but many people have become addicted to that "rush" they feel when they are very busy. This "rush" is caused by adrenaline or epinephrine produced by the adrenal glands in response to stress and is intended to give us the energy to fight or run away (fight or flight).

Along with the production of adrenaline, the body will also produce cortisol. Slow acting cortisol can cause the most trouble. Adrenaline does not last long in the body and we quickly feel the "crash" after a "rush". This is when the food cravings set in.

The over abundance of cortisol can cause havoc on our blood sugar levels and can even contribute to causing diabetes. Also, the longer this process goes on, the harder it will be for the body to recover from this "rush" and "crash" cycle.

The other player in this scenario is serotonin. This neuro-transmitter works in the brain to keep our mood elevated. A common side effect of low serotonin is depression. Serotonin also helps us cope with stress, but can easily become depleted when we are under prolonged stress.

We need to replenish our supplies of serotonin from our diet, so if our diet is low in serotonin abundant foods and high in stress, sugar is a substitute, although a poor and short lived one. A lack of serotonin can cause food cravings. There are also people that do not produce enough serotonin.

What Can You Do?

- Eat before you are hungry

You can accomplish this by snacking on healthy foods. It is difficult to curb cravings when you are hungry. Once you reach the level of hunger, you are more likely to grab the easiest thing than the right type of food.

- Snack on healthy foods

A good snack contains a protein, a fat and a complex carbohydrate (whole grain). It can be cheese and crackers, celery and nut butter (almond, peanut, or cashew), or a bowl of yogurt with fruit and nuts. Have an afternoon and a morning snack.

Interestingly, many of the clients that come to me for weight loss are not eating enough. Once I have them eating more healthy calories and at the appropriate times, they lose weight.

- Eat foods rich in tryptophan (converts to serotonin)

Tryptophan is an amino acid (found in protein foods). To boost your levels, eat protein rich foods like chicken, turkey, nuts, cheeses and beans.

- Eat at regular times

Just like us, our bodies do better on a regular schedule. Have your breakfast within an hour of waking up. Have your lunch between 12-1 p.m. and dinner before 6 p.m.

- Drink Water

Stress is a dehydrating experience. Most people under stress also drink large amounts of coffee, tea and soda, all of which are diuretics and add to the body’s need for more water.

Calculate your water need by taking your weight and dividing it by two. Your answer will give you the amount of water you need to drink in ounces per day, without stress.

Add a minimum of 16 oz of water per day. Also, if you are not used to drinking this amount of water, do it slowly by drinking 8 oz of water for one week and adding in an additional 8 oz glass each week until you reach your ideal water need.

- Choose whole grains

Whole Grains help regulate the blood sugar, keep us full longer and provide us with long lasting fuel for our brain and body. They also contain high amounts of the B vitamins that are quickly depleted in times of stress. The B vitamins help us cope with stress better.

- Do not bring sweets into the house

If you don’t have them, you can’t eat them-problem solved. If you find yourself making special trips to the store to satisfy your sweet tooth, then you know you have a problem with sugar.

- Sleep and rest

During times of stress, your body needs time to rest and recover. Stress can drain you physically, mentally and emotionally. Depending on the individual, the amount of sleep and rest required will vary.

- Exercise

Exercise does not necessarily mean a physically strenuous activity. Over doing exercise is also a stressor. You be the judge on what type of exercise you find enjoyable and you can also consult with a physical trainer.

Webcam software detects movement, triggers siren, captures images, records video, and sends captured images by e-mail

2011-04-15T17:07:00.000-07:00

Web camera software senses movement, triggers alarm, captures images, records video, and sends captured images by e-mail

Web cameras are perfect for more than just making online conversations more sensible. They can in addition be an enormously helpful device for use in residence or commercial protection.

Application is now accessible that can sense movement and use it as a trigger for several events.

The way that it works is to analyze the picture sent by a webcam that is either attached using USB or using a video capture device for motion. While it picks up that movement, it can after that acquire any number of actions, including triggering an siren.

A more popular application, though, is to either send live frames of what is happening in the picture that is covered by the webcam or to even webcast using live streaming precisely what is happening with both audio and picture. If installed covertly, this application could even be used for stealthy surveillance.

Given the large quantity of systems that either have a webcamera attached or can support one, this is an excellent way to inexpensively and effortlessly guard the region around that pc from invasion or burglary.

I'm using web camera software. I can broadcast Online video to watch my apartment from anywhere.

With my new web camera software, I can run a streaming broadcast of my apartment viewable from the Internet. This opens up a number of possibilities, the surface of which has not even been scratched in today's world. I can use this webcast for surveillance purposes, allowing me to see what's going on in my site at any moment from a remote watching pc.

As long as I have the webcamera running and a remote station with Internet access, I can view the site. With the application and the webcam, I can change the options to capture video, sense motion (if I don't want to keep the camera running at all times), or use a combination of a online feed and recorded video to implement a protection system that takes full advantage of modern technology.

With a capture card, I can easily transfer related video and screenshots to use on any station.

With delicate files on my computer and expensive stuff in my room, it only makes sense to have a security setup that I can supervise whenever I feel that my privacy is being compromised. If I owned a small firm or lived with roommates, I couldn't imagine living without it.

Surveillance application If you find yourself with a need to record surveillance video with a webcam over an area, camera computer application may be the right choice for you. Using this application, it is possible to set up a camera to detect motion and begin recording once it does.

Depending on your needs, the sights and sounds that are picked up by the camera may be stored on a hard drive, or if the captured video needs to be available off-site, can be broadcast using the server's broadcasting feature to a site.

Depending on the quality of the camera and the viewer's video card, the picture that is recorded may be as clear as a high-definition television signal. Using a setup like this, it is possible to provide a measure of surveillance for an area while the economics of the situation do not justify hiring a security business or setting up a professional monitoring system.

This do-it-yourself approach can save money while not compromising on security.

Hollywood Stop Circulate Their Movies Production to Indonesia

2011-02-20T17:57:00.000-08:00

Wow...shocking news came from the movie business in Indonesia. The world’s largest film industry, Hollywood decided to stop distributing their movies production in Indonesia. This means there will be no foreign films screened in cinemas Indonesia.
According to Noorca (spokesman of 21 Cineplex), their action backed by government policy of Indonesia through the Directorate General of Customs who impose the burden of import duty on imported film distribution rights. This means that the government add on the costs of foreign films that want to enter Indonesia.

“Their actions against the new policy of Directorate General of Customs which imposes duty on imported film distribution rights. Because they think it is that something unusual and not ever in any film industry in the world,” said Noorca. Noorca easily explained, before that, there were 3 requirements for foreign film producers who wanted to show his film at the cinema of Indonesia.
First, they have to pay import duties of goods in the form of a copy of the film ribbon to Indonesia. Tax form of income tax (Pph) and VAT (Ppn) amounting to 23.75 percent of the value of the goods.
“After showing at cinema, they must pay income tax (Pph) from the profits of exploitation their movies that played in Indonesia,” he continued.
Third, a film producer there is also tax burden spectacle of the City or County. The amount of 10 to 15 percent of ticket sales profits.
“That’s fair. Now that is not fair is that the government imposes new taxes in the form of import duty on distribution rights that are the same size, 23.75 percent of the value of goods. This does not exist in any country,” he explained.
Thus, as long as Directorate General of Customs impose such taxes, Hollywood will not distribute the film production in Indonesia. “It will last forever, as long as the Director General of Taxation is not soft,” said Noorca.
Hollywood decision no longer send its film production began on Thursday (02/17/2011). While the movie is already in play, will be withdrawn from circulation.

Best Foods That Will Lower Your Cholesterol Quickly

2011-02-20T17:39:00.000-08:00

by: Todd Peterson

There are certain types of compounds in foods that are not conducive for healthy cholesterol levels. There are two that are worse than others. One is saturated fat, which is a type of fat that is predominantly found in foods that come from animal products. The other is cholesterol, which comes only from animal products. Saturated fat elevates your LDL more than anything else in the average diet. The chief cause for high cholesterol that eventually leads to heart disease is consuming excess amounts of saturated fats and cholesterol. Reducing the amount of cholesterol and saturated fat in your diet is a crucial step towards reducing your blood cholesterol levels. We have talked about the types of foods that will raise your cholesterol but there are different kinds of foods available that will also lower your cholesterol.

Eating soluble fiber can reduce the absorption of cholesterol into your bloodstream which lowers your (LDL), the "bad" cholesterol. By eating 6 to 11 grams or more of soluble fiber per day can decrease your overall cholesterol levels. An excellent example of a type of food that contains soluble fiber is oatmeal. Foods like kidney beans, bananas, apples, pears, barley and prunes are also an excellent source of soluble fiber. Consuming 1 and 1/2 to 2 cups of cooked oatmeal per day will provide you with about 8g of fiber. If you add fruit like bananas, you will add about another four grams of fiber to your meal. You can also add cold cereal made with oatmeal or oat bran to your menu of soluble fiber to eat.

Walnuts, almonds and other nuts are another type of food that can reduce your blood cholesterol level as well. These nuts have a lot of polyunsaturated fatty acids in them. If you are at the borderline of having heart disease, eating walnuts can help you push the line in your favor. They are not a cure-all but eating walnuts will help the situation. According to the Food and Drug Administration, eating about a handful (1.5 ounces, or 42.5 grams) a day of most nuts, such as almonds, hazelnuts, peanuts, pecans, some pine nuts, pistachio nuts and walnuts, may reduce your risk of heart disease. But, this does not include nuts that are salted or coated with sugar. Since your overall goal is to improve your total cholesterol levels, limit yourself to just a handful of these nuts because they are high in calories. You should replace foods that are high in saturated fat with nuts. An easy way to this is to add a handful of walnuts or almonds instead of using cheese, meat or croutons in your salad.

Controlling your cholesterol can be tough at first when choosing the right foods to eat. Start by eating fatty fish and omega-3 fatty acids to control your cholesterol. If you are at risk for developing blood clots eating foods that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids will reduce your chances of serious health complications in the future. In people who have already had heart attacks, the fish oil, or omega-3 fatty acids, reduces the risk of sudden death. It is recommended that you include at least two servings of fish a week in your diet. Fish that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids mackerel, lake trout, herring, sardines, albacore tuna, salmon and halibut. You should bake or grill your fish to avoid having extra calories in your meal. You can also get small amounts of omega-3 fatty acids from foods like ground flaxseed or canola oil if you do not prefer fish.

Authentic Narrations About Cupping (Al-Hijama)

2011-01-30T15:41:00.000-08:00

Cupping Is The Best Of Remedies

Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Indeed the best of remedies you have is cupping…" [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5371)].

Abu Hurairah (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "If there was something excellent to be used as a remedy then it is cupping." [Saheeh Sunan Abi Dawud (3857), Saheeh Sunan ibn Maajah (3476)].

The Angels Recommending Cupping

Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "I did not pass by an angel from the angels on the night journey except that they all said to me: upon you is cupping, O Muhammad." [Saheeh Sunan ibn Maajah (3477)].

In the narration reported by Abdullah ibn Mas'ud (may Allaah be pleased with him) the angels said, "Oh Muhammad, order your Ummah (nation) with cupping." [Saheeh Sunan Tirmidhee (3479)].

In Cupping There Is A Cure

Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi

Wasallam) said, "Healing is in three things: in the incision of the cupper, in drinking honey, and in cauterizing with fire, but I forbid my Ummah (nation) from cauterization (branding with fire)." [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5681), Saheeh Sunan ibn Maajah (3491)].

Jaabir ibn Abdullah (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Indeed in cupping there is a cure." [Saheeh Muslim (5706)].

Cupping In Its Time Is A Cure For Every Disease

Abu Hurairah (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Whoever performs cupping on the 17th, 19th or 21st day (of the Islamic month) then it is a cure for every disease." [Saheeh Sunan Abi Dawud (3861)].

Cupping Can Be Used For:

Headaches

Salma (may Allaah be pleased with him), the servant of the Messenger of Allaah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Whenever someone would complain of a headache to the Messenger of Allaah (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam), he (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) would advise them to perform cupping." [Saheeh Sunan Abi Dawud (3858)].

Magic

Ibn al-Qaiyum (may Allaah have mercy on him) mentions that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) cupped his head when he was afflicted with magic and that it is from the best of cures for this if done correctly. [Zaad al Ma'aad (4/125-126)].

Poison

Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that a Jewish woman gave poisoned meat to the Messenger of Allaah ( Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) so he (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) sent her a message saying, "what caused you to do that?" She replied, "If you really are a Prophet then Allaah will inform you of it and if you are not then I would save the people from you!" When the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) felt pain from it, he (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) performed cupping. Once he travelled while in Ihram and felt that pain and hence performed cupping. [Ahmed (1/305) the hadeeth is hasan (good chain with all the paths)].
Strengthening One's Intelligence And Memory

Ibn Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Cupping on an empty stomach is best. In it is a cure and a blessing. It improves the intellect and the memory. So cup yourselves with the blessing of Allaah on Thursday. Keep away from cupping on Wednesday, and Friday, Saturday and Sunday to be safe. Perform cupping on Monday and Tuesday for it is the day that Allaah saved Ayoub from the trial. He was inflicted with the trial on Wednesday. You will not find leprosy except (by being cupped) on Wednesday or Wednesday night." [Saheeh Sunan Ibn Majah (3487)].

The Best Days For Cupping

The 17th, 19th and 21st of the Islamic month which coincides with Monday, Tuesday or Thursday. Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger ( Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Whoever wants to perform cupping then let him look for 17th, 19th and 21st…" [Saheeh Sunan Ibn Majah (3486)].

Ibn Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger (Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) said, "Cupping on an empty stomach is best. It increases the intellect and improves the memory. It improves the memory of the one memorising. So whoever is going to be cupped then on a Thursday in the name of Allaah. Keep away from being cupped on a Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Be cupped on a Monday or Tuesday. Do not be cupped on a Wednesday because it is the day that Ayoub was befallen with the trial. You will not find leprosy except (by being cupped) on Wednesday or Wednesday night." [Saheeh Sunan ibn Maajah (3488)].

As for the Islamic day and night, the night enters before the day. So at sunset on Tuesday, Wednesday night comes in. Cupping is best performed during the day time between sunrise and sunset. If one is not able to be cupped on 17th, 19th or 21st (coinciding with Monday, Tuesday or Thursday) then any Monday, Tuesday or Thursday of the month.

Cupping While fasting Or In The State Of Ihram

Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allaah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger ( Sallallaahu Álayhi Wasallam) was cupped on his head for a unilateral headache while he was in Ihraam. [Saheeh al-Bukhaaree (5701)].

Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said, "Cupping under the chin is beneficial for pain in the teeth, face and throat, if it is done in its proper time. It purifies the head and the jaws.

Cupping on the top of the foot is a substitution for the puncturing of the Saphena, which is a large vein in the heel. It is beneficial for treating ulcers that occur on the thighs and calves, the interruption of menses and skin irritation on the testicles.

Cupping at the bottom of the chest is beneficial for the treatment of sores, scabies and mange on the thighs. It helps against gout, hemorrhoids, elephantiasis and itchiness on the back." [Zaad al-Ma'aad, 4/58].

Cupping For Women

[Saheeh Muslim (5708), Abu Dawud (4102), Saheeh ibn Maajah (3480)].

The Distorted Image of Muslim Women

2011-01-30T14:57:00.000-08:00

By Sister Naasira bint Ellison, a convert to Islam
Hudaa, Jamaica, New York

Since the height of the feminist movement in the late 70's there has been a magnifying glass placed over the status of Muslim women. Unfortunately, the magnifying glass that has been used is an unusual one. Unusual in the sense that it is very selective about which items it will magnify; other items it will distort to such a degree that they will no longer look familiar. I remember once reading in an "in depth" article about the lives of Muslim women. This article "explained" that at any time a man can divorce his wife by simply stating "I divorce you, I divorce you, I divorce you". This article can lead anyone ignorant of the Islamic ruling regarding divorce to believe that in less than five seconds the woman is left with no husband and is left to care for herself (and possibly children) by any means necessary. The question that immediately popped up in my mind was, "Did the author innocently write that out of sincere ignorance or was it another of the many attempts to degrade the religion of Islam and its followers (muslims)?" It may be my own paranoia, but I tend to believe it was the latter of the two.

The truth of the matter is that Islam has the most humane and most just system of divorce that exists. Firstly, many options are taken and tried before coming to the decision of the divorce. If the man and woman decide that they can no longer live together successfully as a husband and wife, the husband (in most cases, not always) pronounces the divorce by saying "I divorce you". At this point the waiting period begins. The waiting period lasts for three menstrual cycles to assure the woman is not pregnant. This period allows the couple time to think about what they are doing and if this is what they really want to do. There are no lawyers involved to antagonise an already delicate situation.

In the case that it is realised, that the woman is pregnant, the waiting period lasts the entire time she is pregnant. During the waiting period (whether the woman is pregnant or not) the man is obligated to provide food, clothing and shelter to the woman as he did before the divorce pronouncement. If the couple carries the divorce through to the birth of the child and the woman suckles the baby, the man is obligated to feed and clothe both his ex-wife for the time the woman suckles (the maximum being two years). After this weaning, the child will be provided for by the father until he/she is no longer in need of support.

It is quite ironic that in such an "advanced society" as America, there are divorce cases in which women are being forced to pay alimony to their ex-husbands. Can this and many other things we know about the American system of divorce compare to the Islamic system of divorce?

I have also read stories wherein it is stated that women are forced to marry men without their consent. This in no way resembles the marriage system in Islam. In Islaam the woman marries the man of her choice. She may even marry someone that her mother and/or father objects to. The point is that it is the woman who makes the final decision as to whom she will marry. Once the man and the woman decide that they are interested in one another for marriage, a dowry is decided upon. A dowry is not a brides price but, it is a gift from the groom to the bride. They agree upon a gift that is affordable by the groom. In the time of the Prophet (sas), often things such as livestock and money were given. This is a wise decision in the event that a woman becomes divorced or widowed, she has some financial security to fall back on even if it is for a limited amount of time. Once the man and woman are married, the man is required to clothe, feed, shelter and educate her (or allow her to be educated) in the same manner as he does himself.

The last distorted image that I will cover is that of the Muslim women's dress. The western influenced media portrays our dress to be outdated and oppressive. Needless to say however, I differ with these adjectives. Our dress code does not hinder us from doing anything productive in our lives. Muslim women maintain a variety of jobs, non of which are devalued nor hampered due to their dress code. And as for the timing of muslims women's dress during these contemporary times, it seems most appropriate due to decreasing morals in the world today.

For those who say that Islamic dress is outdated, they speak from great ignorance. The decreasing morality and trials of this time makes Hijaab even more in need. More than ever before sex crimes are rampant. Although this society tells women they can wear what they want to wear, anytime a rape occurs the woman is the one put on trial an one of the first questions is, "What were you wearing?" This concept seems as though it is a set up directed against the so called contemporary woman. Also there is a direct correlation between the respect a man has for a woman and the amount of her body her body she displays flauntingly.

In conclusion, I hope this article helped to clear up some distorted/misunderstood aspects of Islam and women. Women in Islam are respected and held in high regard. We will never find success and/or solutions to our problems until we realise that Allaah knows best and that this disbelieving society will ruin itself.

To download a computer virus one simply needed to click on a certain link or open an email attachment.

But before starting I would like suggest you to read about the about the Top 7 Most Dangerous Computer Viruses of the 20th Century.

1. Sadmind worm (2001)
ALIAS: Sadmind/IIS, Unix/Sadmind, Solaris/Sadmind.worm
The Sadmind worm was a self-propagating piece of malware, It was first discovered on May 8, 2001 in china. Sadmind is designed to provide remote system administration operations and is installed by default with many versions of the Sun Microsystems operating system. It affected some big operating systems like Sun Microsystems Solaris(OS) and Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS) which is the world's second most popular web server in terms of overall websites behind the industry leader Apache HTTP Server.

2. Beast Trojan (2002)
Beast is a Windows-based backdoor trojan horse more commonly known in the underground cracker community as a RAT (Remote Administration Tool). It was created in Delphi and released first by its author Tataye in 2002. Beast was one of the first trojans to feature a 'reverse connection' to its victims and once established, it gave the attacker complete control over the infected computer.

Once connected to the victim computer, via Beast hacker can access victim's all computer file and directories along with the power to upload, download, delete or execute any file or folder.

3. SQL Slammer (2003)
ALIAS: Sapphire, Worm.SQL.Helkern, SQLSlammer
Appeared first in 27th January 2003 and soon got a high rank in the list of most dangerous worms of the year because it is the first fileless worm. Slammer was able to spread by taking advantage of the vulnerability found in the SQL Server.

Slammer spread to over 90 percent of all vulnerable hosts in 10 minutes and infected around 359,000 computers total and according to London-based market intelligence the worm caused between $950 million and $1.2 billion in lost productivity in its first five days worldwide.

4. Sasser (2004)

Sasser is an Internet worm that probably caused around $18.1 billions of dollars of damage in 2004. It was created by a Computer science student, Sven Jaschan in Germany first seen on last day of april. While there was no intentionally destructive payload, Sasser did cause many computers to slow down or crash, causing some high profile damage.

And was destructive enough to shut down the satellite communications for some French news agencies. It also resulted in the cancellation of several Delta airline flights and the shutdown of numerous companies’ systems worldwide.

5. Bandook (2005)

ALIAS: Bandook Rat

Bandook Rat is a backdoor trojan horse that infects Windows NT family systems (Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista). It uses a server creator, a client and a server to take control over the remote computer. It uses process hijacking / Kernel Patching to bypass the firewall, and allow the server component to hijack processes and gain rights for accessing the internet. It is somehow very similar to Beast Trojan (2002)
6. Nyxem (2006)
ALIAS: Mywife, Hunchi, I-Worm.Nyxem, Blackmal, Blueworm, Blackworm
Nyxem worm was first found on March, 2006. The worm spreads in e-mails using an external SMTP engine. It sends itself with different subjects, body text and attachment names. The worm also copies itself multiple times to an infected hard drive. Blackworm is designed to corrupt data on infected computers on February 3, 2006, in respect to The Day the Music Died.

The most scary thing in this worm is, It can deletes your antivirus programs, if they are installed in the same directories as the ones specified in the worm's code. It can also delete the entries in the Windows Registry belonging to these antivirus programs, so these applications will not be run automatically the next time Windows is started.

The worm also contains one GIF file which is used to make a recipient of infected e-mails think that the message was scanned by Norton Anti-Virus and no infection was found.

But its havoc ended soon and it gone off the records after October 26.

7. Storm Worm (2007)

ALIAS: Small.dam, Trojan.Peacomm, Trojan.Peed, Trojan.Tibs, W32/ZhelatinBut soon after the Nyxem ended, a new virus has been discovered on January 17, 2007 named Storm Worm having the same functionality as Nyxem, It hides himself in a email attachments that had the following title line: "230 dead as storm batters Europe." Users that opened the attachment let the virus come in their machines. This virus infected around 10 million computers worldwide and after the computer is infected it could be used to launch millions of spam emails that would advertise Web links.

But it has also got some new features of stealing identity and according to the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation the Storm highly helped hackers in bank fraud, identity theft, and a number of other cybercrimes.

8. Conficker (2008)

ALIAS: Downup, Downadup, Kido

Conficker is a computer worm targeting the Microsoft Windows operating system that was first detected 20th November 2008 affected more than seven million government, business and home computers in over 200 countries.

The worm attacks the Microsoft vulnerability MS08-067 in Server Service which allows remote code execution. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to run arbitrary code on the machine without authentication and take full control of the computer. Second, Conficker Worm uses the infected machine computing power to execute password brute force attacks to crack administrator passwords in the local network. This will allow the worm to spread through network shares as well.

The worm is said to have caused 9.1 billion in damage, mostly in Asia, South America and Europe.

New versions of Conficker came with the power to
-Blocks DNS lookups.
-Disables AutoUpdate.
-Kills anti-malware.
-Scans for and terminates processes with names of anti-malware, patch or diagnostic utilities at one-second intervals.

Microsoft sets a bounty of $250,000 USD for information leading to the capture of the worm's author(s).

9. Daprosy Worm (2009)

Daprosy was first observed in early May 2009 and first announced to public as Daprosy trojan worm by Symantec on July 2009 . This worm is a malicious computer program that spreads via LAN connections, spammed e-mails and USB mass storage devices. Infection comes from a single read1st.exe filewhere several dozens of clones are created at once bearing the names of compromised folders. The most obvious symptom of Daprosy infection is the presence of Classified.exe or Do not open - secrets!.exe files from infected folders.

The worm is known to destabilize, corrupt and even stall the operating system due to programming bugs. It appears that it is incomplete and was probably created by students or amateur Visual Basic programmers. As of October 2009 special scripts are available to remove it from infected computers but till then many Windows system were stalled.

10. Alureon (2010)

Alureon is a trojan and rootkit which is designed to steal data by intercepting a system's network traffic and searching it for usernames, passwords and credit card data. Microsoft has confirmed that Alureon is the cause of a series of BSoD problems on Windows systems which were triggered by Patch Tuesday update MS10-015. Microsoft will not install the patch on these systems. The Alureon rootkit was first seen in 2006 and now started affecting computers.

PCs become infected by downloading software also particularly off torrent sites and visiting certain posting sites.

Windows 8: Microsoft’s Self-redemption In 2012?

2011-01-16T22:21:00.000-08:00

by: Wendy Wong

About half an year ago, the rumor that Microsoft is developing their next generation operating system Windows 8 has been widely spread. Some leaks from the insider and Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft’s hint have both proved that Windows 8 is being developed now. Since Windows 7 has achieved great success in this year, we have enough reasons to expect Windows 8—the so called riskiest product bet by Microsoft.

What we know about Windows 8 by now ?

Released in 2012

In Oct 2010, Microsoft’s Dutch website accidentally published a paragraph on Sunday that indicated work on Windows 8 was in the run and the release time would be in 2012.

Facial recognition

Facial recognition would be added to Windows 8 so that the users can enter the system just like login to your e-mail and social network websites all by simply looking at a camera. The advanced technology could make it easier to replace other passwords with faces.

Faster startup speed

Although the startup speed of Windows 7 is faster than XP and Vista, it’s remains left behind in OS world. MacBooks can start in the 25-second range and Linux including Chrome OS, reduce that to just a few seconds. Now, Windows 8 might make it different.

128-bit compatibility

Back in November 2009, when Windows 7 was just released, a Microsoft engineer updated his claiming he was trying to get “IA-128 working backwards with full binary compatibility on the existing IA-64 instructions in the hardware simulation to work for Windows 8 and definitely Windows 9.” It seems that Windows 8 could be the first version of Windows to drop 32-bit support entirely.

App store

Now, app store has been a necessary part of smartphone operating system. Apple iOS、Google Android、HP webOS and Windows Phone 7 supply with app store service. According to leaked slides from a presentation, Windows 8 will follow suit with the “Windows Store.” Partners like HP may get opportunities to develop their own app stores (“HP Store powered by Windows”).

How To Be Assertive And Confident In 3 Simple Steps

2011-01-16T21:53:00.000-08:00

by: Michael Lee

Want to learn how to be assertive and confident? While some strategies require nothing more than a trip to your local health store or gym, others require you to look deep inside yourself for inspiration. Either way, it is possible!

To learn how to be assertive and confident, read on!

Step # 1: Surround Yourself With Friends.

Friends, and I mean your real friends, make you feel good about yourself. When you’re around them, you don’t feel like hiding who you really are. You’re free to talk about your hobbies and interests without fear of ridicule.

In high school, those who had real friends learned how to be assertive and confident early on. Others have had to fake their confidence all throughout their student life.

Real friends may be hard to find; but once found, they should not be taken for granted. With their support, you will continue to grow into the best version of yourself - empowered and assertive.

Step # 2: Make Yourself Look Good.

While you’re no narcissist, a little bit of grooming couldn’t hurt.

In fact, many women have confessed that putting on red lipstick makes them feel powerful. Whether it’s the boldness of the color, or the rebelliousness of the idea, that elicits that kind of reaction doesn’t matter; what matters is that women feel more empowered.

Guys, on the other hand, find that building muscle gives them the confidence they need to succeed in their chosen paths. Aside from the satisfaction of having put in a lot of work into their body, knowing they look fit and gorgeous always makes them feel great!

Step # 3: Know What You Want.

If you want to know how to be assertive and confident, then you at least have to figure out what you want in the first place!

Many people who stutter and lose their train of thought in the middle of a sentence are probably still trying to come to terms with themselves.

When preparing for a speech for example, decide what you want to share with the audience and what kind of reaction you wish to evoke from them. With a clear goal, you will be able to deliver your speech with admirable confidence and clarity.

Knowing how to be an assertive and confident person is different from actually being one. To cross that line, you need to put these strategies into play. Don’t just read this article and go on with your life as if nothing has changed. Remember: Everyday is an opportunity to better yourself.

What's The Simplest and Easiest Way to Lose Weight?

2011-01-16T21:44:00.000-08:00

by: Gord and Gertie Guide

The answer to how to lose weight has intrigued humans for generations. It has triggered a multi-billion dollar industry, offering solutions ranging from A to Z and the ridiculous to the even more far fetched. Everything from:

* Special diets to special exercise plans

* Super foods to super drinks

* Ancient magic potions to intense calorie-burning workouts

* Expensive gym equipment to isolated fat-reducing plastic contraptions

* Detailed lifestyle formulas to daily motivational tapes

And the list goes on...

Each solution is intended to be the best, or the simplest, or the easiest, or better yet, the only effective way to lose weight. What's incredible is our human imagination is taken in by these illusions. And, by positioning the solution to be more complicated than it needs to be, sophisticated products and services tend to be valued more than the common sense we were born with.

It's Not Rocket Science

Are you ready for the solution? The easiest way for you to lose extra pounds is to simply eat when you are hungry and then stop eating when the hunger pangs have gone away.

How can it be that simple? Eating when your stomach tells you and stopping before you overdo it? Well it may be simple, but its not that easy for many people. There are so many emotions tied to eating that losing weight for many is not easy at all.

Some good questions to ask yourself BEFORE you go to eat are:

* Are you physically hungry?

* Do you feel any hunger pangs?

* How often are your eating patterns guided by your physical hunger?

* How often are you reaching for food because you're upset?

* Are you eating just because someone else is?

* Are your eating just because it's the time to eat, even though you snacked heavily a few minutes ago?

Of course if your goal is to lose excess weight, there does need to be some planned organization, or you couldn't share a meal or plan your day. But going back into the body's natural metabolic rhythm is an important step in the right direction when it comes to getting your body back on track and in shape .

We've Gotten Out Of Touch

Many of us have lost our ability to detect true hunger. We no longer recognize what hunger pangs feel like or the signals hunger produces. Some overweight people never let themselves get hungry. They eat too often, and too much at each meal.

Then there is the "empty plate syndrome". Where as young children they may have been trained to finish everything on their plate and cannot leave a half-filled plate uneaten whether they are hungry or not.

The next time you think about eating, just ask yourself how hungry are you? If you are hungry, go ahead and eat a sensible healthy meal. If you are not hungry, ask yourself what is it you are really craving?

* Are you exhausted and need a nap?

* Are you bored?

* Do you need to get busy doing something fun to occupy your mind?

* Do you need some exercise?

* Would a nice walk outside refresh you?

Physical Hunger Is Not The Problem

There can be so much stress and anxiety with all the things you have to handle each day -- your job, your family, your finances. The real need is for rest, movement, rejuvenation and renewal. It's an emotional hunger need, not a physical one.

So if you try to fill those situations by eating food you will not get relief from those needs. You will still have those needs waiting for you after you have polished off the ice cream, for example. And you will feel even worse, because you over-ate.

Let's Solve The Real Problem

Let's start asking ourselves different questions when we feel like reaching for food when not truly hungry:

* What's the nicest thing I can do for myself right now? Something easy, like even taking a deep breath, take a short health break, or even just a good stretch.

* What do I need to adjust or change to feel better about myself, my family and my job?

* I remind myself that food tastes much better when I'm truly hungry, so I can wait.

Give yourself the gift of exploring healthier ways to meet your legitimate daily needs. You will feel much better in the long run. And your body will thank you. It's that simple!

How To Repair The 1000007E Error - Working 1000007E Error Fix Tutorial

2011-01-08T20:46:00.000-08:00

By Greg Toddles James

The Windows XP 1000007E error happens because Windows is not able to read certain files and settings that it needs to perform the operations you are asking it to do. The usual suspect for errors of this type is faulty or corrupted computer files, corrupt instructions or damaged settings. To fix this error, you need to carry out repairs to the source of the problem, which could be anything from checking there is enough disk space to eliminating viruses in your PC.

What Is The 1000007E Error?

Windows XP 1000007E errors occur because the operating system cannot read the related files and settings correctly. There are several issues that can cause this to happen. However, the error is usually reported in the same way, as follows:

"STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0x804E518E, 0xFC938104, 0xFC937E04)
SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED"
"0×1000007E: SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED_M"

To fix this error, we need to make sure the settings of Windows are configured correctly, and then fix any settings in Windows that maybe damaged. Follow these steps to do this.
How To Fix the 1000007E Error On Your PC
Uninstalling third party drivers that are connected to your system will help. It is often the case that Windows XP 1000007E errors are resulting from problems with these programs on your PC. To fix this, you will need to perform an un-installation of any problematic or error -strewn drivers that are on your PC. To do this, you need to click on the Start Icon in your main toolbar, then go to the Control Panel, find the Add/Remove Programs function and select the faulty drivers from the list of applications when it populates. Make sure to select all of the erroneous drivers on your computer, leaving any behind will not fix the problem. Thing to look out for include graphics drivers, printer drivers and custom audio drivers that have been installed in the past.
Another task that you will need to complete to get rid of the Windows XP 1000007E errors is to remove any unsigned device drivers in your system. These often cause errors as they sometimes cause the system to have failures and not work as smoothly as it should. To make sure that you can fix these errors effectively, you will need to remove all the unsigned drivers that are running on your PC system. Removing these is a slightly more complicated process, so make sure you follow these instructions exactly as you see them.

Click Start > Run
Type "sigverif" and then click on OK
Click on the Advanced tab and then click on "Look for other files that are not digitally signed"
Go to the folder labelled C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS and click OK
Click on START

If you find that the Windows XP 1000007E errors are still persisting even after this, then it is almost certainly because there is a fault with the Windows registry. This part of your computer plays an important function in the processing of files, settings etc that Windows needs to read as it runs your applications. Because it's used so much, its files and settings can be damaged, and eventually it may be the case that Windows simply can't read them anymore. To fix them, you'll need to run a registry cleaner tool, which is a special software program that can clean this important sector quickly and easily.

The Health And Emotional Impacts of Being Overweight

2011-01-08T20:38:00.000-08:00

By Julie Reade

The number of overweight or obese children continues to grow in the United States. In some states it's higher than others. Currently, Mississippi has the most overweight children. Nation-wide, the number is unbelievable. One out of every three children is overweight. This problem is blamed on less time doing active pastimes and more meals from fast-food restaurants. As families become busier, children's health is clearly taking a back seat. The days of playing outdoors with friends and neighbors has been replaced with staying indoors and playing Xbox. Fast food meals have replaced home cooked meals. We are a nation whose children are literally eating themselves to death.
Children who are overweight are at an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, all of which used to be adult diseases. Now doctors are scrambling to find medicines and solutions for kid bodies with big adult health problems. Most medications for high blood pressure and high cholesterol were tested on and made for adults. Just giving them to kids does not work because of side effects and possible dangers. Growing bodies react differently to medication and therefore have to be handled differently.
There is good news though. All of these conditions are reversible. If a child's diet is changed from fried food to fresh, whole foods, his cholesterol will go down. If sedentary activities are changed to include some activities such as walking and biking, blood pressure will go down. As sugary foods are replaced with healthy, fresh foods, type 2 diabetes will disappear.
There are other risks that aren't discussed as often as health risks, but whose consequences are just as far reaching. The emotional and psychological effects of being obese as a child and teenager are especially important to recognize. At a time when kids really want to fit in with their peers, they are often singled out and even bullied. They also usually suffer from self-esteem problems and depression.
Obese children are teased mercilessly by their peers and they often turn to eating for comfort. This only puts on more pounds and continues a vicious cycle of weight gain and teasing. Constant teasing only adds to the low self-esteem. Unfortunately, school isn't the only place this happens. Sometimes, if parents don't understand their child's weight problem, they may worsen it with cruel remarks of their own. Instead of making comments about their weight, parents should encourage their kids to get fit and active through a sport or other activity they enjoy.
An important thing for parents to do is be a good example to your obese child. Letting your eating and exercise habits lead the way will speak volumes to your kids. Making the effort to cut out fast food will go a long way. Also, making sure that candies and chips are left at the store will be helpful.
