    How and Why The No Flour-No Sugar Diet Works
    No flour, no sugar = fewer calories The key to weight loss is simply to burn more calories than you take in. In the simplest of terms, then, my No Flour, No Sugar Diet works because eliminating flour and added sugar from your diet, without making other changes, reduces the number of calories you consume. I have found, and my patients’ successes have verified, that eliminating flour and sugar from your diet is a simple way to cut calories instantly. Replacing high-calorie breads, for instance, with low-calorie vegetables and legumes will take a big chunk out of your caloric intake without leaving you feeling hungry or unsatisfied. Likewise, by replacing sugar and honey with no-calorie sweeteners, you can feed your sweet tooth while cutting calories.To see how eliminating flour and sugar from your diet can dramatically reduce the number of calories you consume, let’s compare the caloric content of two breakfasts -- one with flour and sugar and one without. If you normally start your day with a bagel (about 250 calories) spread with a pat of butter (50 calories) and a tablespoon of strawberry jam (50 calories), and coffee with two teaspoons of sugar
    Well, the word has gotten out. The deer know you have started another buffet of green delicacies. Word spreads fast in the forest and it won't be long before these uninvited guests will arrive at your garden gate.

    Deer tend to feed on our gardens at night making it difficult to keep them out of the garden. Some favorites of deer are: Apples, Arborvitae/white cedar, Arrow wood Viburnum, Birch, Day lilies, Dogwood, Euonymus, Garden lilies, Hostas, Hydrangea, Impatiens, Linden/basswood, Yews , and Roses. An important factor that will effect how often deer enter your vegetable garden, is availability of food in their native habitat.

    Unless you live in a city, the odds are you will have deer in your garden at some point. If you live in the country, your garden is almost like having an open invitation for dinner - everyday. These nuisance deer can be difficult to deter without taking some serious and consistent action to prevent them from enjoying a buffet dinner that you call your garden.

    So how do you keep deer out of the garden?

    There are several ways to keep deer out of your garden, some of these deer repellents you may not even be aware of. In addition, there are many plants that deer will usually avoid. One of the hottest products to hit the market to protect your plants from deer is the Scarecrow - a motion activated sprinkler that shoots a 3 second burst of water in the direction that triggers it.

    There are many home remedies that may be effective, but only for a short time. Fencing is expensive, labor intensive and needs to be at least six feet high - besides, who wants to hide their beautiful garden behind a fence - in some case a fence is not even an option. Planting deer resistant plants may deter deer until they get really hungry - kind of like kids and spinach. Dry weather will attracted deer to irrigated plants for the refreshing moisture.

    Overall, the final consensus amongst most gardeners is effective deer management requires a combination of deterrents to be effective. This includes commercial repellents combined with home made remedies as listed below. Fencing for most of us, is not an option and very expensive. As such, we won't cover fencing here. Instead we will focus on the known alternatives.

    Deer Repellents & Control:

    Use these known deer repellents and controls in combination for best results

    Dogs: A dog that will actively chase away deer is probably the number one, most effective deer deterrent there is. If your dog does not wonder, keep him out at night and you should have no further problem with deer. If fido is a little on the lazy side, other alternatives as listed below may warrant attention.

    The Scarecrow: The Scarecrow is a motion activated sprinkler that works both day and night. It not only scares away deer, but is effective for cats, dogs, rabbits, raccoons and larger birds. It sprays a maximum 35 foot stream of water for 3 seconds. One 9 volt battery will provide approximately 3000 bursts of water. Works on water pressure between 30 - 80 psi (use a pressure reducer at higher psi), is fully adjustable and comes with a 24 month warranty.

    The No Cost No Obligation Secret to Success
    Most people say they want to be successful, but beyond saying the word, they have no clear mental concept of what success is. Getting what you really want is one definition. Attainment. Not some abstract want, like it would be nice to have this or that, but a real emotionally charged passion for something specific that you know would give you pleasure or satisfaction.Ask yourself why you want this, list the reasons. Imagine you have what you want, how does it feel? Still feel convinced, or was it something you just thought you wanted? Success is attainment of whatever you really want. And true success is attainment without creating negative repercussions through deceit or short sightedness. But what is the mechanism for bringing about this success?The secret to achieving success is not actually a secret at all. It is a plan, a realization. Not wishful thinking or even faith, as these may work to some degree eventually over the long term, but are unreliable and imprecise. Most people will give up before actualization using this approach. To facilitate more direct results requires awareness of some basic truths and the formulation and execution o

    Commune With The Three Spheres For Successful Internal Communications
    Don’t be fooled by the title of this article. There is nothing mystical about achieving internal communications nirvana. What it does require is a clear understanding of how to successfully commune with the three spheres of internal communications.The First Sphere: Your EmployeesAll organizations -- large and small, for-profit and not-for-profit -- need to communicate consistently to their employees. Unfortunately, some organizations either neglect or mishandle this important task.Successful organizations engage in regular communication to their employees. They recognize that successful and engaged employees have a clear understanding of the organization’s values, objectives and milestones. In addition, employees that understand where an organization is going are in a better position to help it get there.The Second Sphere: Your External StakeholdersExternal stakeholders like investors, industry experts and others are also critical to your internal communications effort.

    How To Permanently Lose The Fear Of Approaching An Attractive Woman
    As a man I know this fear well. If you've read any of my other articles here in this ezine you'll know that I suffered from paralyzing shyness most of my life and of how I managed to release this destructive problem from my mind and body permanently.Well the fear of approaching attractive women was a significant component of this shyness.Each and every time I would notice an attractive woman who I wanted to get to know I would become very anxious at the thought of approaching her. My mind would become clouded with numerous negative thoughts such as:1. Don't even bother; you're wasting your time.2. She doesn't want to talk to you.3. What if she rejects you; you'll look foolish even stupid.4. Don't make yourself vulnerable to being embarrassed or humiliated in public.5. You're too emotionally vulnerable to risk being rejected.6. You just don't deserve having any kind of contact with such women.7. You're too ugly and unattractive.8. And so on.These, needless to say, caused me to abort the idea of saying anything and often left me feeling like a complete failure. This only re-inforced t

    Electric Fence: The electric fence is often overlooked by many gardeners. It is very effective for cattle and horses and offers some protection against deer - although if they jump over and never touch it, they will not be afraid of it. Fortunately, deer tend to graze and nibble as they feed and the odds are in your favor that they will touch your fence and flee, realizing this area is better left alone.

    Electric fences are best used for the vegetable garden in back yards, were public access is restricted. You do not want the neighbors kids running home and telling their parents they got zapped. Unless you live in a rural area, you may also find it difficult to find a supplier. This can be overcome by shopping online or traveling to rural or farming communities near you. Select a low powered fence designed for smaller livestock - after all, you are not trying to keep animals the size of horses or cattle out of the garden.

    Low lying electric fences (and low powered) can be effective for Rabbits and other smaller animals. They should be kept very low to the ground using two lines, set on an angle away from the garden - set the first line about 3" above the ground and the second about 8". Keep the lines clear of grass, shrubs or any other material that will ground the charge and reduce the effectiveness of the fence.

    A new electric fence for slugs is under development in Canada and should be on the market by 2007. We can not elaborate on this now, but testing is proving very successful and we will provide details when given the go ahead from the developer.

    Deer Repellent Plant Protec: A new product from www.deerbusters.com, this all natural green Deer Repellent plant protector clips easily on most plants. Emits a non-offensive garlic odor keeping deer and other unwanted pests away. Environmentally safe with no spraying and no mess. Plant Protec lasts up to 8 months.

    Egg Based Deer Repellent: A another product from www.deerbusters.com is the Deer Repellent egg based repellent, it has been tested and proven effective against deer browsing. This unique product repels by odor but, unlike some repellents, Deer Away will not be offensive to you. Tested in independent studies by the USDA and Penn State. Deer Away was originally developed for use in large reforestation projects. One application will last up to 2 months. This product is designed for pines, firs, fruits, citrus and ornamentals. Other names this product is known as include "Deer Away" & "Deer-Off".

    Human Hair: Human hair wrapped in a old nylon and hung on branches or tucked between plants will provide some protection against deer and various animals. The smell of a human indicates danger to most wild animals and should keep deer away from these areas.

    Tree Guard(tm) : Tree Guard with Bitrex(tm) is another deer deterrent. It is lightly sprayed on seedlings, shrubs, ornamentals, hedges and flowers to produce a lingering nasty taste that animals do not like - DO NOT USE on anything that you will be eating.

    The bitter tasting Bitrex is locked into the plant surface forming a "protective jacket" w
