And so the seasons progress and soon the evenings will shorten and fall will be with us once more. But that’s a dangerous time for those of us watching the waistline. Cold days tempt people to snack and once the warm weather returns you face those old problems.

Try a course and see if they can help you…

When the cash runs out before calendar does it’s tempting to cut back on bills for things you don’t think you’ll need, but that’s often a mistake. Life can go off the rails with no warning and you need good coverage on hand to avoid the damage this can do, so skipping insurance can too often be more costly than enabling it.

Wholesale Insurance is one way to save. This little known option gets you great coverage from all the big names and saves you money as well. So keep your family covered – do a search now and get covered for less…

Only cellphone snobs disown watches

thelimey — Fri, 24 Jun 2011 21:24:37 +0000

he feedback to my earlier post about how most cellphone users think those among us who wear watches are weird has been productive, but my opinion still stands.

Smartphones are great to look at and enormously useful, but there’s something about the feel of a well crafted timepiece that can’t be replaced by shiny plastic and keys.

Those odd souls who pay exorbitant prices to have half-eaten fruit on their phone may call me a relic, but just add a fine piece of chronological styling like a suunto watch to your wardrobe choices then see if you don’t get what I mean.

I rest my case…

The Cough that can finish you off

thelimey — Fri, 01 Apr 2011 21:07:02 +0000

Modern buildings are [usually] a triumph of design, but it wasn’t always that way. In the mid-60′s the talk in construction was all about asbestos – a seemingly wondrous new material that allowed builders to provide every new building with great insulation at far lower cost.

Then the construction workers started to cough.

The diagnosis in most cases was Mesothelioma, a deadly cancer that infects the lining of the lungs, the stomach and in some cases even the layer of cells surrounding the heart.

Symptoms take decades to surface and the prognosis can be less than endearing. As many as 3,000 cases are still diagnosed every year in this country and if you suspect a family member may be among them you need to talk to a doctor as soon as you can…

Tretinoin may not be your answer to acne

thelimey — Wed, 30 Mar 2011 19:24:07 +0000

Apart from bad grades or failing to get into college, acne has to be one of the most distressing experiences most teenagers can suffer. When you find a large swathe of people all suffering a similar and distressing condition it’s very easy to sell them your magical cure, and one example of this disingenuous practice has been tretinoin.

The makers say it helps suffers by speeding the process through which infected skin is replaced by the body. But people who have used it are less than impressed – Several have reported a great deal of itching, redness and frequent occasions when the skin starts to peel.

So the cure sounds even worse than the problem.

It’s often sold under other names such as ‘Retin-A’ and ‘Renova,’ but the names its user must call it are rather less kind. If you have some trouble with acne at present, be advised. There are many more brands on the market and you’d probably be safer to choose one of those.

Are all the health ‘experts’ just blowing smoke?

thelimey — Wed, 30 Mar 2011 19:19:14 +0000

In recent years the media has made a great deal of noise about the health concerns of smoking, but regardless of all the chatter and worthy research millions of people still indulge. And why not? When you need to really relax or have had a major achievement in life a stick of medicinal gum just doesn’t fit the bill like a well made cigar.

The pundits all claim you’ll drop dead if you stand within four miles of a smoker, but there’s a good reason for such impassioned claims – it gets them on national TV. A good cigar once in a while never hurt anyone, so don’t listen to those cheese-heads on the news just light up a good smoke and enjoy…
