To your health: The New Rules of Fitness for 2013
We’ve entered 2013, and yet most of us think of exercise like it’s 1991. Let’s toss out the old and welcome the new.
The old: long sessions of jogging, or marathon sessions on the elliptical machine or treadmill, or working every bodypart individually on a dozen different weight machines and dumbbell stations, doing circuits in a women-oriented fitness center, taking dance-aerobic or kickboxing-aerobic classes.
There’s nothing wrong with all that, but it’s not how we live today. Today, we live online, in a world of Facebook and Twitter and Instagram and Pinterest, of Gmail and iPhones. The way we live and think online isn’t at all how we think about fitness.
Let’s take a cue from how we actually live and think today, and change up fitness. Let’s rethink things for 2013.
The New Rules of Fitness
If we take cues from our online world today, here’s how we’d do fitness (and some of us are already doing it this way):
1. Small. In the world of tweets and SMS messages, long classess or gym workouts or jogging sessions just don’t seem to fit. We don’t have time for all of that. So toss out the workout, and instead think of fitness as small as a tweet. Sprint up a hill after getting off the train or parking your car. Sprint up a flight of stairs as you go into the office. Do some pushups before a meeting. Do some squats after sitting for 30 minutes. Pick up a friend, put him on your shoulders, and carry him for a block. Let’s call it a fitness bit instead of a workout.
2. Social. We rarely do anything online or offline without sharing it, or collaborating with others. So share your fitness bits, or do them with others. Play a sport. Find a place where others are sharing their fitness bits too (it’s probably where you’re already sharing other stuff).
3. Distributed. Everything is out there in the cloud these days, not just on one server but distributed across many. But when we schedule a workout, we schedule it at just one time. So 1990s. Instead, do bits throughout the day, distributed among all the other little tasks you’re doing. Do some yoga sun salutations in the morning, a bit of walking or sprinting on the way to work, some bodyweight exercises at your desk (or in front of your living room couches for us work-at-home bums), some basketball or walking/running with friends after work, some chinups at home in the evening. It breaks up all the sitting you usually do, which is a good thing.
4. Fun. We do most of our stuff online because it’s fun. Or at least, I do. I love reading good stuff online, or collaborating with friends, or sharing something interesting I’ve found or thought about. So why is fitness so boring to so many people? They’re doing it wrong. It’s fun as hell. If you’ve been doing exercise you hate, find something funner: a sport, playing with your kids, walking or running with a good friend, a new challenge with a group of friends.
5. Open. Let’s toss out the days when companies had proprietary, secret methods for getting you in shape, and you had to hire a trainer to tell you what to do because he had all the knowledge and you didn’t. Instead, let’s share our best methods, learn from each other, improve on each other’s methods and share those. Let’s find a good way, like open-source software has, to collaborate and share our fitness methods.
6. Exportable. These days, the best services allow you to export your data anytime you want, and you can take that data anywhere you want to take it (yes I know some services don’t do that, but those guys suck). So let’s do the same with fitness —instead of having to do your workout at a gym, or a track, or a yoga studio or crossfit gym or some other specific place … be able to take your workout anywhere. You can do bodyweight exercises anywhere … do yoga poses anywhere … do chinups at the playground or on a tree branch … sprint up a hill or some stairs … walk briskly anywhere. Be fluid with your fitness and be able to adapt to wherever you are.
7. Fast. We work with unprecedented speed online these days. If a page takes 10 seconds to load, it’s too slow. That was unimaginable 15 years ago! So let’s get our fitness to move at the same speed: remove all the barriers to doing a fitness bit. Page speed comes when you remove all the heavy stuff from a page or app — so remove the heavy stuff that slows you down before accessing the fitness bit. What are some of the barriers?Having to go to a gym, sign up for a class, get some clothes or equipment. Instead, you should remove anything that keeps you from doing a fitness bit right now, or at any moment you want to do it.
Those are the new rules of fitness, and they will keep you active, all the time, if you give them a try.

This Yawn is For You
It's true that one yawning is contagious and one leads to another within a group. This is an involuntary action that causes one to open your mouth wide and breathe in deeply. Yawning happens in the womb, it has been observed that an 11 month old fetus has.
There are three major theories of yawning. The first is the most commonly known one, that draw more oxygen in, which replaces the carbon dioxide that we exhale. The second theory.is to change the current activity. The third is bordom or tiredness.
However, in essence we have why we do yawn. But this is common in most if not all animals.

What chocolates benifits
Dark Chocolate contains antioxidents which ate known as polyphenols. They help tissue stability and some amount may prevent cancer.
It comes from fruit pods on a cocoa trees which grow near equator. They reach maturity within 5 years. However they become the most flavored within ten years. They can still produce seeds at 30 to 40 years of age.
Pods are about the size of football. They can contain more than 15 beans. At least 4 beans make ounce of dark chocolate. Once they are roasted and deshelled and also heated to high temperature they make chocolate liquer. Next they blend chocolate and add sugar amount depending on type. This meets the FDAs standards.
Milk chocolate contains 10% liquor, along with other dairy products and sugar. Dark chocolate is eithet bittersweet or semisweet which 35% liquor. The white chocolate doesn't contain any liquor and consists of cocoa butter, sugar, dairy products and flavoring.
Americans enjoy at least 12 pounds of chocolate a day compared to the Swiss that eat more then 22 pounds of chocolate. As far back as 1700, Madrid residence enjoyed 12 million pounds a year. Today 15 of the 16 top countries to consume chocolate are in Europe. The consumption actually may have benifits for the heart, lower blood pressure, risk of heart attack, stroke. A tremendous plus is that it improves love making.

I'm sorry
Why are these two words so difficult for people to say? It has to be that people are having too much pride. Saying those words don't take pride away. In a way they build character. They show that you are humble enough to admit you are wrong. This actually takes some pressure off and relaxes you, so you live longer. Now isn't that good.

Memory lives here
The Neuroscience and Genitics research center at UCLA have come the closest to finding the place where memories are written as well as stored in the brain. These memory engrams, which science found exist in vast webs throughout the brain as oppose to be in specific areas of the brain. We have found to lure specific memories into particular neurons. Inactive memories vanish, however if they are activated in a timely manner they return to as they were.
Engrams were discovered by a German biologist Richard Simon. A clear way to describe a memory engrams is like a byte, or a segment of a hardrive. It's not known where they are located, though. The more brain cells are lost the weaker the memories become.
The human brain contains approximately 100 billion synapses. They found a way to strengthen memories so physical outcomes would be greater
These are, in essence, is steroids for the brain, which causes selective amnesia.

Penis
The penis has a great deal of interesting facts. Of coarse it is vital to the reproductive cycle of all lifeforms, but did you know the Vatican has a room that stores this tribute to the male species which were broken off male manicans. Our species has a relatively large penis compared to other animals.
Chimpanzees don't have a head on there penis, in fact we are the only species that does.
