No matter how much you reason with yourself, your lateness is probably due to the fact that you couldn't get out of bed. It's always unpleasant to drag yourself out of bed, so here are some tips to help you wake up alert and get you out of bed quickly:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul style="margin-top: 0in;" type="disc"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 115%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;Assess your health&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Verdana&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 8pt; line-height: 115%;"&gt;.

To look at health as 'wholesome' is to follow a program that focuses on all the five dimensions of health- physical, physiological, psychological, emotional and spiritual. A corrective eating pattern and regular physical activity are the two parameters that work in the long run. For your information and awareness, listed below are some of the popular myths and misconceptions concerning diets and exercises:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;It is safe to eat fat free foods available in the market. They are calorie free.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; Check all facts on fat free foods by reading the food labels for the serving size and the number of calories per serving. Most of these foods do contain extra sugar, flour and starch thickeners to make them tasty. These ingredients are high in calories and may lead to weight gain. Some people tend to over indulge in such foods with the belief that they are good for dieters.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Stomach Crunches are enough to get rid of your belly fat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; Spot reduction or choosing areas where you can burn fat from is difficult. In order to burn fat or lose weight you need to create an exercise or workout plan that includes both cardiovascular and strength training exercises. This will not only help decrease your overall body fat content but will also increase flexibility. Specific exercises will help in toning those areas. For wholesome wellness and long term goals address your body in totality and not in a fragmented way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;You should never eat before a workout.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; "Fuel" from food and fluids is required to provide the energy for your muscles to work efficiently, even if you are doing an early morning workout. It is advisable to opt for a small meal or a healthy snack two to three hours prior to exercise. Give your body the necessary 'fuel' for energy by choosing fruit, yogurt, whole wheat toast or unsweetened soy milk Take care not to have heavy meals as too much food just prior to your exercise may cause vomiting, nausea or uneasiness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fat is bad for you, no matter what kind.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; Contrary to popular belief, there are plenty of "good fats" that are essential for good health and aid in disease prevention. Not all fat is bad. The good fats contain essential fatty acids like Omega3 and Omega6 fatty acids. The best sources of these fats are flax seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, olive oil, avocado, fish and nuts like almonds, cashew, peanuts etc. These fats help to raise your good cholesterol or HDL. Including small amounts of these foods at meal times can help you to feel full longer and therefore eat less. Fats that contribute towards weight gain are saturated, hydrogenated and processed fats found in all baked foods, biscuits, cookies, cakes, crackers and other fries snacks. These fats also increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease and hypertension.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Lifting weights tend to make women bulky, broad and muscular.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; Women have less muscle fibers as compared to men. Besides, most women do not produce enough testosterone to become 'bulky'. To build large muscles an adequate supply of male hormones (testosterone) in the blood stream is required. Also include yoga, stretches, breathing exercises (pranayam) and meditation for overall wellness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Restricting calories drastically is the best way to lose weight.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; Regular exercise and reduction in calories contribute towards weight loss, maintenance of lean body mass. Resorting to drastic measures like less than 1200 calories diets and starvation will only lead to loss of energy, stamina and reduced metabolic rates. For long lasting energy and better results eat regular meals at frequent intervals and eliminate 100-300 calories consistently from your daily diet.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;As long as you eat healthy foods, you can eat as much as you want.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; This is a misconception! A calorie is a calorie. Although foods like fruits, oats etc are considered healthy, extra helpings will contribute to extra calories. Healthy or otherwise, it is important to be aware of portion sizes. You must limit your caloric intake in order to lose weight. Understanding how to 'balance' calorie intake throughout the day can help you avoid feelings of deprivation, hunger and despair. Include a few cups of green teas and warm water to tide over hunger pangs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Exercise turns fat into muscle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; Fat and muscle are two separate tissues and do not have the capability to change from one type of tissue to another. Fat does not turn into 'muscle'. It is possible to lose fat with a dedicated effort which includes diet and exercise and replace it with muscle. Fat by itself cannot turn into muscle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Eating late at night contributes to excess weight gain.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; There are no specific or ideal hours. Many people believe and associate late-night eating with weight gain mainly because, that's when we have large meals and we end up consuming more calories at night. We do this because it is a common practice to skip meals and thus deprive our bodies of adequate calories during the day. A large meal before bed time especially if it's a high carb meal stimulates insulin which stimulates fat storage. For steady weight loss a light meal at dinner consisting of salads, soups and vegetables are recommended. Avoid foods like breads, pasta, rice, cheese etc.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;A good workout requires sweating. The more one sweats the more fat one can lose&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Fact:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt; Sweating is not necessarily an indicator of exertion - sweating is your body's way of cooling itself. If you exercise under humid or hot conditions, you will surely sweat profusely and the weight loss recorded at such times only indicates water loss and not fat loss. How much you sweat is certainly not a great measure to see how many calories one is burning. Weight loss is possible only by a sensible, moderate eating plan and quality workouts!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Any published here are the personal views of the perosn posting it.

Prevent burn out and injury. Here are exercises you can do five times each while standing or sitting at your desk. &lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;Lower Backache and Pressure:&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;Inhale and slowly bring your head toward your knees. Let your hands drop to your ankles. Hold for 5 seconds. Inhale and slowly unwind, return your head to its normal upright position. Exhale and stretch your arms toward the ceiling. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Upper Back and Shoulder Tension:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lift your hands to your shoulders while keeping your elbows down and pushing your shoulders back. Hold for 15 seconds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wrist Tension and Stiffness:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Put your palms together, chest high (as if in prayer). Slowly push your palms together while lifting your elbows slightly and hold for five seconds. Rotate your hands, fingertips pointing to the floor. Hold for 5 seconds and release. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neck and Shoulder Tension:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inhale. Slowly turn your head to the right. Feel the strain in your neck muscles. Hold for five seconds. Exhale and return your head to normal position. Repeat the same on your left side.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Any published here are the personal views of the perosn posting it.

Studies have shown that computer users tend to stare at a glowing screen without blinking for much longer periods than do people who use typewriters. This is why many people using computers experience dry eye problems. In addition, computer screens reflect a great deal of glare - from windows, overhead lights and even the user's own bright clothing. Finally, many computer users sit practically face-to-face with the monitor.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Whether you spend every day or only a few hours a week using a computer, there are steps you can (and should) take to reduce the physical strains from computer use.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Steps to follow, when using a computer:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;·&lt;span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Have a thorough eye examination. While everyone should have their eyes checked once a year, annual eye exams are especially important for computer users. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;·&lt;span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Follow the "20/20 rule." Keep your face at least 20 inches from the screen and pause every 20 minutes or so to look around the room, so your eyes can focus on distant objects. Regular eye exercise helps prevent eye strain.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;·&lt;span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Place all materials you are working with at the same distance as the screen. This reduces strain of your eyes and neck. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;·&lt;span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Make sure you have a glare screen, which should block glare without making the characters on the monitor appear fuzzy. Also if possible, move or adjust the computer screen to avoid reflections from windows or indoor lights. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;·&lt;span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Sit on a stable, comfortable, adjustable chair. If it is possible to put the keyboard a few inches below the desktop, for example, with an adjustable table, or by using a center drawer of a desk for a pullout keyboard rest, do so. This will keep your arms at a more comfortable angle. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;·&lt;span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Place computer monitor at a 35-degree angle below your eyes. This reduces incidence of Dry Eye. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;·&lt;span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Use preservative-free artificial tears intermittently when on the computer if your eyes get red and irritated. Much of computer fatigue is caused by Dry Eye. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt 36pt;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Symbol; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;·&lt;span style="font: normal normal normal 7pt/normal 'Times New Roman';"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Finally, take periodic breaks from the computer during the day, walk around and do some non-computer tasks for about 15 minutes every two or three hours&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Any published here are the personal views of the perosn posting it.

It literally means 'constructing a bridge' and mainly comprises of building a sort-of 'bridge' with the body, mostly making use of hips and legs. Sethu Bandhasana is mainly meant to help the body relax and get rid of stress. The yoga asana also helps strengthens the muscles of the buttocks, apart from the back and hamstrings and is great for invigorating and refreshing tired legs.

With a little knowledge and advance planning, it’s easy to check your e‑mail from the road. Here are some tips to help you remain in contact with friends, family, and colleagues while you're on the go.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;1. Use web mail and travel light&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;If you use a web-based e‑mail service such as&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Hotmail, you can send and receive e‑mail using someone else’s computer, without the need to carry around your own mobile PC while you travel. All you need is a&amp;nbsp;Hotmail&amp;nbsp;account and a computer with a web browser and an Internet connection. You can even access&amp;nbsp;Hotmail&amp;nbsp;from some web-enabled mobile phones.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;To open a&amp;nbsp;Hotmail&amp;nbsp;account, go to the&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Hotmail&amp;nbsp;website.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;2. Carry a laptop and use your own e‑mail program&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;If you’re traveling on business, chances are you'll have your own mobile PC with you. In this case, you can use a more full-featured e‑mail program such as&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Mail&amp;nbsp;orWindows&amp;nbsp;Mail. These programs enable you to store all your messages locally on your PC, so you can read messages you’ve already downloaded and compose new messages even when you can’t get an Internet connection.&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Mail is included in&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Vista. To download&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Mail, go to the&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Mail&amp;nbsp;website.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NgzX-ybtNzs/TxEXkoXPBgI/AAAAAAAAFJ4/rmiZRbD-7l0/s1600/image005-710818.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5697360921677989378" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-NgzX-ybtNzs/TxEXkoXPBgI/AAAAAAAAFJ4/rmiZRbD-7l0/s320/image005-710818.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Bringing a mobile PC with you on a trip gives you more options for checking e‑mail&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;When you have your own computer with you, you also get the added bonus of being able to check e‑mail in the privacy and comfort of your hotel room (assuming your hotel offers Internet access). Also, if you're really on the go and don’t want to stop and open your laptop, you can check e‑mail from many mobile phones, including many&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Mobile devices.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;3. Try doing e‑mail offline&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Write messages when you're inspired, not when you're connected. If you have a laptop with you, take advantage of offline time to read messages you have already downloaded and compose replies and other new messages. Unlike web-based e‑mail, programs such as&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Mail and&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Mail&amp;nbsp;save your messages locally (on your hard disk), rather than on the web. The next time you connect to the Internet or your company network, you can download new e‑mail and send any messages you have ready to go, sitting in your Outbox.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5CK5V463c2A/TxEXkxv7lpI/AAAAAAAAFKA/xDW1nc4NMVI/s1600/image006-711871.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5697360924197492370" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-5CK5V463c2A/TxEXkxv7lpI/AAAAAAAAFKA/xDW1nc4NMVI/s320/image006-711871.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Windows&amp;nbsp;Mail and&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Mail&amp;nbsp;enable you to write messages offline and store them temporarily in your Outbox&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;4. Hone your skills at finding Internet cafés&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;If you're traveling without a mobile PC, train yourself to watch for Internet cafés and other places where you can rent a computer for a short period of time to check your e‑mail. Don’t wait until you absolutely have to check e‑mail and then expect to find a place on the nearest street corner. Depending on where you're traveling, there might not be very many Internet cafés. Learn what kinds of places offer computers with Internet access. Many places may offer wireless Internet access but have no computers you can use. Ask around for locations. Hotel clerks, waiters, airline staff, and other service people can often tell you where to go.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;“Internet café” is a generic term that many people use to refer to almost any public place with a computer you can use to access the Internet. An Internet café may or may not refer to an actual café. Also look for Internet kiosks, public libraries, and other locations that let you use their computers. Many rent computer time by the minute or hour.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-r9AnQbwif6A/TxEXlN3an8I/AAAAAAAAFKM/mNpfjBVWO2I/s1600/image007-712227.png"&gt;&lt;img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5697360931745079234" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-r9AnQbwif6A/TxEXlN3an8I/AAAAAAAAFKM/mNpfjBVWO2I/s320/image007-712227.png" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;You can access&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Hotmail&amp;nbsp;from any computer with a web browser and an Internet connection&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;5. Look up Internet café locations before you go&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;If you want to be sure you can check your e‑mail from the road, make a list in advance of Internet cafés where you will be traveling. This can be important if you will be traveling in areas where Internet access is less likely to be available.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Several websites offer lists of Internet cafés around the world. You can go to online resources such as&amp;nbsp;The Cybercafe Search Engine website&amp;nbsp;or the&amp;nbsp;Cybercafes website&amp;nbsp;where you'll find thousands of Internet cafés, public Internet kiosks, and even cruise ships with Internet cafés. Of course, not every café is listed, so ask around if you can't find one on the web.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;6. Find local wireless hotspots&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Many cafés, coffee houses, and airports have wireless networks called hotspots where you can access the Internet. They might not rent PCs, but if you have a laptop with you, you can sign in and check your e‑mail using your own computer and an e‑mail program such as&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Mail or&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Mail. There is often no charge for customers to access the wireless network.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Windows&amp;nbsp;Vista&amp;nbsp;makes it easy to log on to a wireless network. To learn how, see&amp;nbsp;View and connect to available wireless networks.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;7. Stay at hotels that offer Internet access&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;This is becoming less of an issue as more hotels and motels offer Internet access. But if you really want to be able to do e‑mail from your room, you might want to skip that charming bed-and-breakfast or quaint country inn, where guest Internet access is probably not on the list of amenities. Most hotels or motels that have wireless Internet access include it in the price of a room or offer it for a modest fee. Business-class hotels usually offer the speediest Internet access. Ask about Internet access when you check in or make room reservations.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;8. Leave your laptop at home when traveling to places where it’s hard to get an Internet connection&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Even if you have a laptop, it may be easier in some places to check your e‑mail from an Internet café than to try and find a connection for your own computer. Relying on Internet cafés is helpful if you're unable to locate wireless hotspots or hotels with Internet access. (I won’t go into the numerous hassles of trying to get a dial-up connection in countries with different phone systems. Wireless Internet access has eclipsed dial-up Internet access for most mobile PC users.) One side benefit of leaving your laptop at home: you won’t have to worry about losing it or having it stolen.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;9. E‑mail important documents to yourself before you leave&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;E‑mail is for more than just communicating with people. If you're not bringing a laptop with you, you can use e‑mail to send important documents to yourself that you want to read or work on while traveling. Then you can access them from an Internet café or Internet kiosk. Another option is to put files on a web-based storage service, although this will require you to find a service you like and sign up for an account there.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;10. Take advantage of flying time&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;Time spent on planes is often time wasted. But there’s no reason to be unproductive just because you can’t get an Internet connection while cruising at 30,000 feet. Take advantage of the downtime to use your mobile PC to do offline e‑mail and other work when you are flying (see No. 3). You can’t send and receive messages without an Internet connection, but you can read e‑mail you’ve saved and compose new messages offline.&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;"&gt;To work with offline e‑mail, you’ll need a full-featured program such as&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Live Mailor&amp;nbsp;Windows&amp;nbsp;Mail that enables you to save your messages locally (on your hard disk).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Any published here are the personal views of the perosn posting it.

We came as refugees but the family soon settled and by 1953 my father had restarted&lt;br /&gt;playing golf at the Willingdon Club. I was eight years old and would walk 18 holes with him every Saturday and Sunday. The three Parsi gentlemen who made&lt;br /&gt;up his regular four-ball were "uncles" Poonawala, Coorlawala and Colabawala. Very soon they had re-christened my father Pindiwala.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Uncle Colabawala did not live in Colaba but in a penthouse on Malabar Hill. Maybe his ancestors had lived in Colaba. I used to spend hours searching the telephone directory to find Parsi surnames and building up stories around their families.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was prohibition in Bombay those days. So to get liquor you had to find Mr Dalal, who would introduce you to Mr Daruwala, who in turn would get bottles delivered to your home by Mr Batliwala who would be accompanied by Mr Sodawaterbottleopenerwalla (the longest Parsi surname I have come across).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other surnames whose ancestors were in the beverages trade were Mr Fountainwala, Mr Ginwala, Mr Rumwala, Mr Sodawala and Mr Jhunjhunwala.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We used to have two delightful Siamese kittens in our flat and these were gifted to my mother by her friend Mrs Billimoria. My mother spent hours knitting cardigans for them, with wool she bought from the Unwala family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My uncle ran the air force canteen in Cotton Green and his partner, yes, you guessed it, was Mr Canteenwala. They had this fantastic cook, Mr Bhajiwala. Their mild and meek manager, Mr Jeejeebhoy, nodded his head and agreed with everything everybody said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My grandfather was the Sheriff of Bombay. I think the first and only Sikh to hold this position. Being Sheriff it was only natural that he had Mr Bandookwala and Mr Golimarwala as his constant companions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grandfather had many Parsi friends who were in politics. There was this squeaky clean khadi-clad Mr Ghandy, and the not so clean Mr Kalaghandy - who was invariably being hounded by Mr Kotwal. But he never left home without his "friends" Mr Barrister, Mr Vakil, Mr Lawyer and their munshi Mr Mehnty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My grandfather built Hotel Waldorf on Arthur Bunder Road in Colaba. So for this he naturally used the services of Mr Contractor and Mr Mistry. He never went to the "native" moneylenders when short of money, but borrowed it from his Parsi friend Mr Readymoney.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our neighbour and family physician was Dr Adi Doctor - he was only half a doctor. He lived with his in laws Mr and Mrs Pochkhanawala. My sister swears they ate only poached eggs for breakfast.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember going to Dr Doctor's sister's wedding. She married Mr Screwala. What he did for a living, I do not know to this day.

Of course the types of foods you eat &lt;u&gt;do&lt;/u&gt; matter, but it's the &lt;em&gt;combination of foods&lt;/em&gt; you're eating that matters even more. Understanding and practicing proper food separation is far more effective than "dieting," which simply doesn't work to keep pounds off permanently. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif" align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse;color:#ffff99;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="12" width="452" bg&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;td style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif" width="428"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;"You can initially lose 5 to 10% of your weight on &lt;u&gt;any&lt;/u&gt; number of diets, but then &lt;strong&gt;the weight comes back&lt;/strong&gt;," said Traci Mann, UCLA associate professor of psychology and lead author of the large-scale dieting study published in &lt;em&gt;American Psychologist,&lt;/em&gt; the journal of the American Psychological Association. "We found that the majority of people regained all the weight, plus more. Sustained weight loss was found only in a small minority of participants, while complete weight regain was found in the majority. &lt;strong&gt;Diets do not lead to sustained weight loss or health benefits for the majority of people&lt;/strong&gt;."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"  style="font-family:arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Food separation is based on the principle that &lt;span style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,255)"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;some foods simply cannot be digested properly when eaten together in the same meal&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; -- and consuming them together impedes your efforts to shed weight. It also depletes your energy and damages your body. You can build up tolerance to eating incompatible food combinations -- and most of us have. But over time our bodies pay a price.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the food separation method, you eat the right foods at the right times for optimal digestion and a fast metabolism. The benefits of proper food separation include better digestion, energy boost, &lt;span style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,0)"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;faster metabolism&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;,&lt;span style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,0)"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;permanent fat loss&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, and an increased sense of well-being.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif" align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;This&lt;/u&gt; May be the Reason Why &lt;br /&gt;You've Failed to Get Rid of Your Excess Fat&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif" align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;The fundamentals behind food separation are simple. Digestion is the result of chemical reactions that occur when our bodies break down food and absorb nutrients. Many popular diet systems -- such as the Atkins Diet and the Zone Diet -- don't account for the synergy of macronutrients during the digestive process. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To boost your metabolism and ensure that your body is digesting food as efficiently and healthfully as possible, simply follow these two cardinal rules:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Eat carbohydrates only with other carbohydrates -- NEVER with proteins and fats.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Eat proteins and fats together with no carbohydrates. (The only carbs that are acceptable to consume with proteins and fats are &lt;em&gt;greens&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;non-starchy vegetables&lt;/em&gt; or &lt;em&gt;low-fat carbohydrates&lt;/em&gt;.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Protein foods -- meat, chicken, fish, eggs, and nuts -- need an acidic digestive environment. Carbohydrates like bread, pasta, rice, and potatoes need an alkaline base for digestion. Acids and alkalines neutralize each other when mixed, which is what happens when you eat proteins and carbs together -- and neither are well digested. Instead, they &lt;em&gt;decompose&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;putrefy&lt;/em&gt; in the gut, leading to weight gain and poor health. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A survey done in the United States found an average of 5 pounds of undigested food in the stomachs of the study participants. So is it any wonder that incomplete digestion and inefficient metabolism are the prime causes of fat accumulation?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Additionally, if you're not using the food separation method, you're not capitalizing on the natural fat-burning propensity of food -- and you're putting yourself at risk for a host of digestive disorders such as gas, heartburn, cramps, bloating, constipation, foul stools, bleeding hemorrhoids, colitis -- and even colon cancer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif" align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;It may be challenging to shift your thinking away from the meat-and-potatoes mindset. But the results you'll see will speak for themselves. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best way to eat to optimize digestion with the food separation method is to &lt;strong&gt;eat small, food-separated meals every 2 to 3 hours&lt;/strong&gt;. Because carbohydrates break down quickly and proteins spend more time in the digestive tract, it's important to alternate between protein and carbs with your mini-meals. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When your body adapts to this schedule, it will begin to metabolize carbohydrates and proteins in a seamless relay. Your highly efficient metabolism will . . .&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif" align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table style="BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse;color:#ffffff;" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="12" width="475" bg&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;td style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif" width="451"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Burn fat &lt;u&gt;all the time&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; (even when you're &lt;em&gt;sedentary&lt;/em&gt; or &lt;br /&gt;not engaging in physical activity)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Automatically shed weight and keep it off&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Boost your energy&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Promote general good health&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="left"&gt;Eliminate waste more efficiently&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Effective food separation means letting go of comfortable -- but &lt;em&gt;mismatched&lt;/em&gt; -- food combinations such as fruits and cereals, steak and potatoes or hamburgers on buns. If you're already working to shave some inches off your waist, you'll be amazed at the difference this simple system makes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:130%;color:#cc0000;"&gt;Not Just for Shedding Weight ... &lt;br /&gt;but also for Health Enhancement!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Even if you are not interested in dropping excess weight, there's no reason not to incorporate the food separation system into your life. It instantly reduces stress on your digestive glands and will actually improve your body's ability to eliminate waste and absorb nutrients. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Dr. William Howard Hay, one of the pioneers of food separation, said of his own conversion to the system, "If a man is a composite of what goes into him daily in the form of nourishment, then what is the use of drugging him or cutting him for the results of wrong feeding habits? It is much more to the point to change the wrong habits and let Nature perform the cure, as nature alone is able to do." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="gmail_quote"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="FONT-FAMILY: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: 700;color:#628c2a;" &gt;1 of 1 File(s) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="attach-table"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="MARGIN: 2px 0px; WHITE-SPACE: nowrap; FLOAT: left; CLEAR: both" class="file-row"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="ygrp-file-title"&gt;&lt;img style="VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; MARGIN-RIGHT: 5px" src="http://l.yimg.com/kq/static/images/yg/img/doc/pdf16x16.gif" /&gt; &lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none" title="How a Simple Dietary Principle Sheds Fat &amp;amp; Weight Rapidly.pdf" href="http://xa.yimg.com/kq/groups/2885618/148333872/name/How%20a%20Simple%20Dietary%20Principle%20Sheds%20Fat%20%26amp%3B%20Weight%2"&gt;How a Simple Dietary Principle Sheds Fat &amp;amp; Weight Rapidly.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Any published here are the personal views of the perosn posting it.

First, you need to generate UPC (Unique Porting Code).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This can be done by sending an SMS to 1900.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The SMS should be in this format: PORT Eg: PORT &amp;lt;99XXXXXXXX&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This should be sent to 1900&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Operator SMS charge will be applicable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PM to flag off nationwide roll-out of MNP on Jan 20&lt;br /&gt;2. In reply, you will receive a UPC (Unique Porting Code) as SMS from 1901.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The UPC will be an 8 digit alpha-numeric code. You will also receive&lt;br /&gt;the date till when the UPC will remain valid in the MM/DD/YYYY format.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Send the UPC to the service number of the mobile operator you wish&lt;br /&gt;to switch to, through an SMS, if such a number is available.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can confirm by visiting the operator's website. Else, visit the&lt;br /&gt;nearest outlet/showroom of the operator you want to migrate to with&lt;br /&gt;your UPC in hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Some service providers charge a nominal fee for the process, while&lt;br /&gt;others like BSNL have advertised free porting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. You will also have to fill and submit the prescribed Mobile Number&lt;br /&gt;Portability form to the new operator. They could also ask you to&lt;br /&gt;submit documents (like photo ID and address proof). Post-paid&lt;br /&gt;subscribers will be asked to submit a copy of their latest bill too.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Your request could be denied if any of these factors apply:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You have an unpaid bill on your existing postpaid mobile number.&lt;br /&gt;Pending request for change of ownership of the concerned Mobile Number&lt;br /&gt;The mobile number is under contractual obligation&lt;br /&gt;90 Days has not lapsed since number activation&lt;br /&gt;90 Days has not lapsed since last Porting Request from the same Mobile Number&lt;br /&gt;You have applied for inter-circle porting&lt;br /&gt;There is a pending legal case against your mobile number&lt;br /&gt;7. The number portability has to be completed within 7 working days as&lt;br /&gt;per process mandated by DoT. You will also receive an SMS mentioning&lt;br /&gt;the time and date for porting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Once the switch is complete, you will receive another SMS from the&lt;br /&gt;new operator.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your mobile phone may go 'dead' for 120 minutes, the time when the&lt;br /&gt;porting takes place. At the end of it, your migration to your new&lt;br /&gt;operator should be complete.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. One thing you must keep in mind - You can change your operator only&lt;br /&gt;once in every 90 days. So, use the service with care&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="POSITION: relative" id="ygrp-mlmsg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="Z-INDEX: 1" id="ygrp-msg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div id="ygrp-text"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;Any published here are the personal views of the perosn posting it.

Water and soap can strip skin of its natural oils, thus sapping moisture. Face or body lotion should be able to keep these types of itches under control; also look for body washes and soaps labeled 'moisturizing'. If you still have itchy patches, you may be experiencing an allergic reaction to a chemical, plant, food, animal or drug. See an allergist if the itching is persistent.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt; &lt;DIV&gt; &lt;P class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;FONT color=#4a4344 size=2 face="Comic Sans MS"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="COLOR: #4a4344; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;A href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel=nofollow target=_blank&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt; &lt;DIV&gt; &lt;P class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;FONT color=#4a4344 size=2 face="Comic Sans MS"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="COLOR: #4a4344; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;A href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel=nofollow target=_blank&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;B&gt;&lt;FONT color=black face=Verdana&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; COLOR: black; TEXT-DECORATION: none"&gt;Hiccups&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt; &lt;DIV&gt; &lt;P class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;FONT color=#4a4344 size=2 face="Comic Sans MS"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="COLOR: #4a4344; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;A href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel=nofollow target=_blank&gt;&lt;FONT color=black face=Verdana&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; COLOR: black; TEXT-DECORATION: none"&gt;&lt;IMG border=0 alt="Visit Us @ www.Fropki.com" src="cid:4.1402855075@web55701.mail.re3.yahoo.com" width=628 height=371&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/DIV&gt; &lt;DIV&gt; &lt;P class=MsoNormal&gt;&lt;FONT color=#4a4344 size=2 face="Comic Sans MS"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="COLOR: #4a4344; FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;A href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel=nofollow target=_blank&gt;&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;A href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel=nofollow target=_blank&gt;&lt;FONT color=black face=Verdana&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: Verdana; COLOR: black; TEXT-DECORATION: none"&gt;If you've frequently got a case of the hiccups, try slowing down when you eat and drink, suggests Dr. Plasker.

I wondered if this was the cockroaches response to all the glory that was spoken about it!&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;She started screaming out of fear. With panic stricken face and trembling voice, she started jumping, with both her hands desperately trying to get rid of the cockroach. Her reaction was contagious, as everyone in her group got cranky to what was happening. The lady finally managed to push the cockroach to another lady in the group.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Now, it was the turn of the other lady in the group to continue the drama. The waiter rushed forward to their rescue. In the relay of throwing, the cockroach next fell upon the waiter. The waiter stood firm, composed himself and observed the behaviour of the cockroach on his shirt. When he was confident enough,  he grabbed and threw it out with his fingers.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Sipping my coffee and watching the amusement, the antenna of my mind picked up a few thoughts and started wondering, was the cockroach responsible for their histrionic behaviour? If so, then why was the waiter not disturbed? He handled it near to perfection, without any chaos.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;It is not the cockroach, but the inability of the ladies to handle the disturbance caused by the cockroach that disturbed the ladies.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;I realised even in my case then, it is not the shouting of my father or my boss that disturbs me, but its my inability to handle the disturbances caused by their shouting that disturbs me. Its not the traffic jams on the road that disturbs me, but my inability to handle the disturbance caused by the traffic jam that disturbs me. More than the problem, its my reaction to the problem that hurts me. &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;SPAN style="COLOR: rgb(128,0,0);"&gt;The Take-Away : The women  reacted, whereas the waiter responded.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(255,255,0);"&gt;We should not react in life, we should always respond.

A guy was driving from Bombay to Pune and decided not to take the new expressway as he wanted to see the scenery along the old road. The inevitable happens and when he reached the mountains his car breaks down - he&amp;#39;s stranded miles from nowhere. Having no choice he started walking on the side of the road, hoping to get a lift to the nearest town. It was dark and rainy. And pretty soon he got wet and Shivering. The night rolled on and no car passed by. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none;" href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000" size="4" face="Arial"&gt;Suddenly he saw a car coming towards him. It slowed and then stops next to him - without thinking the guy opened the door and jumps in. Seated in the back, he leaned forward to thank the person who had saved him. He realizes there is nobody behind the wheel!!! &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none;" href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000" size="4" face="Arial"&gt;Even though there&amp;#39;s no one in the front seat and no sound of any engine, the car starts moving slowly. The guy looks at the road ahead and sees a curve coming. Scared almost to death he starts to pray, begging the Lord for his life. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none;" href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000" size="4" face="Arial"&gt;He hasn&amp;#39;t come out of shock, when just before he hits the curve, a hand appears through the window and moves the wheel! The car makes the curve safely and continues on the road to the next bend. The guy, now paralyzed in terror, watches how the hand appears every time  they are before a curve and moves the steering wheel just enough to get  the car around each bend. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none;" href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000" size="4" face="Arial"&gt;Finally, the guy sees lights ahead. Gathering his courage he wrenches open the door of the silent, slowly moving car, scrambles out and runs as hard as he can towards the lights. It&amp;#39;s a small town. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none;" href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000" size="4" face="Arial"&gt;He stumbles into a restuarant, and asks for a drink, and breaks down. Then he starts talking about the horrible experience he&amp;#39;s just been through. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;a style="TEXT-DECORATION: none;" href="http://groups.fropki.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000" size="4" face="Arial"&gt;There is dead silence in the restuarant when he stops talking ..... . . . .&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000" size="4" face="Arial"&gt;......and that&amp;#39;s when Santa and Banta Singh walk in. Santa points and says &amp;#39;Look Banta - that&amp;#39;s the idiot who got into our car when we were pushing it.&amp;#39;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;&lt;font color="#ff0000" size="4"&gt;&lt;/font&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br clear="all"&gt;| Ashwin Nagar | India &amp;#43;91-9833015352  |  &lt;br&gt;Success is not permanent and failure is not final &lt;/p&gt;      &lt;/div&gt;            &lt;!--~-|**|PrettyHtmlStart|**|-~--&gt;     &lt;div style="color: #fff; height: 0;"&gt;__._,_.___&lt;/div&gt;                      &lt;div id="ygrp-actbar" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 10px; white-space: nowrap; color: #666; padding-top: 15px;"&gt;       &lt;div&gt;         &lt;a href="mailto:ashwin.nagar@gmail.com?subject=Horror at lonavala - Chilling Real story!!!" style="margin-right: 0; padding-right: 0;"&gt; 	  Reply to &lt;span style="font-weight: 700;"&gt;sender&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; |         &lt;a href="mailto:common_friends@yahoogroups.com?subject=Horror at lonavala - Chilling Real story!!!"&gt; 	  Reply to &lt;span style="font-weight: 700;"&gt;group&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; |         	  &lt;a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/common_friends/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJwMG9lajZqBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzI4ODU2MTgEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA5MTI5Mjg0BG1zZ0lkAzEwNTEEc2VjA2Z0cgRzbGsDcnBseQRzdGltZQMxMjc4ODY3ODM4?act=reply&amp;messageNum=1051"&gt;Reply &lt;span style="font-weight: 700;"&gt;via web post&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; |             	&lt;a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/common_friends/post;_ylc=X3oDMTJlam1nNHI4BF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzI4ODU2MTgEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA5MTI5Mjg0BHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA250cGMEc3RpbWUDMTI3ODg2NzgzOA--" style="font-weight: 700;"&gt;Start a New Topic&lt;/a&gt;       &lt;/div&gt;                  &lt;a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/common_friends/message/1051;_ylc=X3oDMTM0cGM3YnIyBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzI4ODU2MTgEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA5MTI5Mjg0BG1zZ0lkAzEwNTEEc2VjA2Z0cgRzbGsDdnRwYwRzdGltZQMxMjc4ODY3ODM4BHRwY0lkAzEwNTE-"&gt;Messages in this topic&lt;/a&gt;           (&lt;span style="font-weight: 700;"&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;)           &lt;/div&gt;  &lt;!------- Start Nav Bar ------&gt; &lt;!-- |**|begin egp html banner|**| --&gt; &lt;!-- |**|end egp html banner|**| --&gt;  &lt;!-- |**|begin egp html banner|**| --&gt; &lt;div id="ygrp-vital" style="background-color: #e0ecee; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 10px;"&gt;       &lt;span id="vithd" style="font-weight: bold; color: #333; text-transform: uppercase; "&gt;Recent Activity:&lt;/span&gt;      &lt;ul style="list-style-type: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; display: inline;"&gt;                                                     &lt;/ul&gt;        &lt;div style="clear: both; padding-top: 2px; color: #1e66ae;"&gt;     &lt;a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/common_friends;_ylc=X3oDMTJlMWQ1ZnJuBF9TAzk3MzU5NzE0BGdycElkAzI4ODU2MTgEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA5MTI5Mjg0BHNlYwN2dGwEc2xrA3ZnaHAEc3RpbWUDMTI3ODg2NzgzNw--" style="text-decoration: none;"&gt;Visit Your Group&lt;/a&gt;   &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;        &lt;div id="ygrp-grfd" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; padding: 15px 0;"&gt;        &lt;!-- |**|begin egp html banner|**| --&gt;        We are on FaceBook, click:&lt;BR&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Ashwin-Nagar/10150091608690724"&gt;http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Ashwin-Nagar/10150091608690724&lt;/a&gt;&lt;BR&gt; &lt;BR&gt; Hi!&lt;BR&gt; 1.
