Never Reheat Coffee that has Equal or Splenda in it

Filed under: Health — Bruce @ 10:27 am

carafe_of_ubuntu.png

I used to be head of Information System Research & Development for a Fortune 500 company, which was also in Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For.

While working there, I worked on a daily basis with expert metallurgical engineers and other scientists. One of them once told me…

NEVER re-heat coffee which has Equal in it. He told me that those chemicals will break down when heated — in a microwave, for example — and the chemicals will change into something else. Very very unhealthy. Even dangerous.

I don’t know for sure… But I would never take chances. If you’ve added one of those sugar substitutes, and your coffee is cold… Either drink it cold or pour it down the drain!

If you can’t bare the thought of wasting coffee, by the way, see Louanne Cox’s Tips for Using Leftover Coffee.

Must See Movies and Videos

movies_3.jpg

Cozy up with a Cuddle Buddy and a Bowl of Popcorn… These Movies You Must Not Miss!

These are movies you can watch online that I consider “Must See” for everyone…

Just click any of the “watch now” links below to begin watching the movie, or click on any of the “download free” links below to download the movie to your computer:

NOTE: Check the listed running time of each video. If it’s less than one hour, it’s probably only a preview trailer, or not a complete copy.

ALSO: To download movies and such, if you are on Windows, you’ll need to download and install uTorrent. first. If you’re on Ubuntu or Mac, you’ll need to install Transmission.

And also see my article called…

Feel Like a Great Movie Tonight?

Let us know what you think of them in the Comments section of this item…

If any of them really strike a cord with you, please be sure to email the link to them (or the link to this page) to everyone you know. That’s the best way to spread the word, by far.

Also, if you find any of the links above are broken or incorrect, please email me. Thanks!

While You’re At It

Be sure to check out these two awesome pages:

The Top 100 Page of movies, videos, audiobooks, music, etc. on the entire internet to Download Free, and…

The Most Popular Movies on the entire internet you can Watch Online Now from Google Video

Notes:

Remember, if you download an ISO file you will need to use a free program like IMGBurn to burn a CD or DVD from it. But you will end up with an exact copy — including the full menus, extra bonus features, etc — of the original… not just the movie.

If you download an AVI file, be sure to check whether it is in English, or in Spanish — whichever you prefer. Also, you might need to get the “Divx” plug-in in order to watch it. You can download it free at Divx.com

If you download an audiobook it will probably be in MP3 format, for convenient listening on your computer… Or on your iPod.

If you download a ZIP file, it’s easy to un-zip it once the download is complete. In Windows, just right-click on the ZIP file and click “Extract All…”

If you have any problems, or questions, following these instructions, please email me to let me know.

Learning a Language and Attending Harvard, all for Free, while Commuting to work on a Bicycle

Filed under: Consumer Issues, Health, Life, Love, Money, Technology — Bruce @ 12:47 pm

This is Unifying the Planet

…fast!

That’s right.

All any human being needs is… an iPod (or a cheap iPod knock-off from China, or any other cheap MP3 player, or a computer) and an occasional internet connection.

A 16-year-old boy could be riding a bicycle in Bangladesh… and…

a middle-aged construction laborer could be sitting in the back of a Baht bus in Bangkok… at the same time, while…

…taking a course at Harvard,

…learning Spanish or Czech or German or French, or

…watching the world’s best video and audio tutorials, movies, and documentaries

All for free.

Don’t shoot me…

I’m just tellin it like it is…

This technology IS ALREADY changing the education of the masses on this planet.

I said above, that any person could be doing these things…

However, the truth is… THEY ALREADY ARE!

Right now — at this very moment — a 15-year-old schoolgirl in Kolkata, India

and a grandmother in Yangon, Myanmar

are getting an education by listening to, and watching, downloaded media… for free.

baht-bus.jpg

Do YOU even know how to use uTorrent? (See brucewagner.com/free )

You install the free program, then you go to a site like mininova.org or thepiratebay.org

All for free, from all over the globe — not hundreds of millions — but BILLIONS — of human beings, are downloading anything they want — educational CDs, DVDs, movies, books — you name it…

Then, they are watching and/or listening to ALL of the best video and audio material ever created…. for free…. while they are walking, waiting, working, relaxing, commuting, etc… on their iPod, or MP3 player, or cellphone or PDA… or now, even on their iPhone…

Agree with it or not…. The world IS changing at lightning speed, as a result.

To give you an idea of what’s out there….

Here are some of the Pimsleur Language Courses available for free, which you can download via bittorrent…

See http://www.mininova.org/search/pimsleur/seeds

Here are some of the The Teaching Company (TTC) University Courses available for free, which you can download via bittorrent…

See http://www.mininova.org/search/TTC/seeds

Here are some of the videos and audiobooks related the the worldwide phenomenon called, The Secret – The Law of Attraction available for free, which you can download via bittorrent…

http://www.mininova.org/search/the+secret+law+of+attraction/seeds

http://www.mininova.org/search/the+secret+audiobook/seeds

and en Espanol,

http://www.mininova.org/search/el+secreto+ley+atraccion/seeds

Make no mistake about it…

In some countries it is illegal to download copyrighted material.

We certainly recommend that you abide by the law always.

And…

These programs are usually copyright protected, and may cost anywhere from $200 for one language course, to thousands of dollars for one single university course…

But…

The Masses — literally billions of people — are downloading them for free… from all over the planet… 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

BitTorrent + iPod = Universal Global Education

Whether you choose to join them or not… You should be aware of how this IS changing the world you live in.

Eating Blueberries Slashes Colon Cancer Risk by 57 Percent, Animal Study Finds

Filed under: Health — Bruce @ 11:19 am

A compound found in blueberries shows promise of preventing colon cancer, according to a new study. Scientists at Rutgers University and the U.S. Department of Agriculture conducted a joint study on animals, and found that the compound — called pterostilbene — lessened pre-cancerous lesions and inhibited genes involved in inflammation. Researchers presented the study at the American Chemical Society’s annual meeting in March.

“This study underscores the need to include more berries in the diet, especially blueberries,” said study leader Bandaru Reddy, Ph.D., a professor in the chemical biology department at Rutgers. Although the blueberry compound won’t cure colon cancer, it represents a strategy for preventing the disease naturally, said Reddy, who specializes in studying the relationship between nutrition and colon cancer.

The researchers studied 18 rats in which colon cancer had been induced in a manner similar to human colon cancer development. All of the animals were placed on a balanced diet, with half of the animals’ diets supplemented with pterostilbene. After eight weeks, the rats fed pterostilbene had 57 percent fewer pre-cancerous colon lesions compared to the control group. The researchers also noted that pterostilbene inhibited certain genes involved in inflammation, considered a colon cancer risk factor.

Colon cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in the U.S. It has been linked to a high intake of saturated fats and calories common in Western diets. Pterostilbene may be able to reverse this process, possibly by lowering lipids, Reddy said.

Reddy cited a recent study by co-author Agnes Rimando of the Department of Agriculture. Rimando demonstrated that blueberries, particularly their skins, can lower cholesterol when fed to animals.

Some thirty different species of blueberries are native to North America. The berries are rich in anthocyanins, widely recognized for their antioxidant qualities. Blueberries are also a good source of ellagic acid, which blocks metabolic pathways that can lead to cancer.

Potential Cure for HIV Discovered

Filed under: Gay, Health — Bruce @ 10:27 am

“In a breakthrough that could potentially lead to a cure for HIV infection, scientists have discovered a way to remove the virus from infected cells, a study released Thursday said.

A rendering of a cell infected with the HIV virus. Scientists announced
they have discovered a way to remove the virus from infected cells.

The scientists engineered an enzyme which attacks the DNA of the HIV virus and cuts it out of the infected cell, according to the study published in Science magazine.

The enzyme is still far from being ready to use as a treatment, the authors warned, but it offers a glimmer of hope for the more than 40 million people infected worldwide.”
