Street Performer




We came across this guy yesterday morning, we went to the city to accompany my Son for a Job Interview. Probably the colorful costume caught my attention and he is a bit different from the usual Street Performer who most of the times are just playing Musical Instruments. At first I felt sorry for the Guy coz he needs to stand there the whole day just to perform and earn some money and after that realized that they can make double of what i'm earning and besides even his friend wouldn't recognize him, just so sad to realize that in any part of this world there is crisis.

Way Back Into Love

I'm not promoting the Film coz it has been showned already nor the Song has any connection to my present lovelife, just can't help but love the Song after watching the Film. :)




[Verse 1]

(Drew Barrymore)

I've been living with a shadow overhead,

I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed,

I've been lonely for so long,

Trapped in the past,

I just can't seem to move on!



(Hugh Grant)


I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away,

Just in case I ever need them again someday,

I've been setting aside time,

To clear a little space in the corners of my mind!



[Chorus]

(Both)

All I want to do is find a way back into love.

I can't make it through without a way back into love.


Oooooh.



[Verse 2]

(Drew Barrymore)

I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine,

I've been searching but i just don't see the signs,

I know that it's out there,

There's got to be something for my soul somewhere!



(Hugh Grant)


I've been looking for someone to shed some light,

Not somebody just to get me through the night,

I could use some direction,

And I'm open to your suggestions.



[Chorus]

(Both)

All I want to do is find a way back into love.

I can't make it through without a way back into love.


And if I open my heart again,

I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end!



[Middle-eight]

(Drew Barrymore)

There are moments when I don't know if it's real

Or if anybody feels the way I feel

I need inspiration

Not just another negotiation




[Chorus]

(Both)

All I want to do is find a way back into love,

I can't make it through without a way back into love,

And if I open my heart to you,

I'm hoping you'll show me what to do,

And if you help me to start again,

You know that I'll be there for you in the end!

Does sports or energy drinks good for weight loss?




I was researching about Energy Drinks side effects and i accidentally bumped into this article and found out not only the side effects of Sports and Energy Drinks but Water that is the key to weight loss,keep on reading to find out why....

There is a plethora of drinks on the market seemingly available for any particular focus. With words like isotonic, electrolytic, taurine, aspartame-free and others, it's no surprise that people often make the wrong choice for their chosen exercise. There is no doubt that sports drinks are beneficial to certain people, but be wary as they do contain significant carbohydrates which if not utilised for exercise, will hinder weight loss. There is certainly a place for energy drinks but consumers must be aware of possible side effects that are all too often ignored. Sometimes water is the best answer, so here's why.

Unless you are an athlete, it is unlikely that you will require sports drinks every day. Athletes lose valuable body salts (sodium, potassium, etc.) during heavy, endurance based exercise and sports drinks help to rapidly replenish these salts, reducing recovery time. It is true that using sports drinks after occasional exercise (less than 4 times per week is occasional exercise) will aid recovery time. But if your exercise is for a program helping you lose weight, the sports drink will negate some of the good work you have just done. A typical sports drink might contain just under 200 Calories which is roughly equivalent to an 80kg person running for 15minutes! Check out our diet profile to see how this was calculated. This extra energy is no problem for athletes who are using all of these calories and do not need to lose weight, but if you are trying to drop a few kilos, it is better just to drink water. What little salt you do lose during moderate exercise will be regained at your next meal time.

The new energy drinks out are exceptionally high in sugar (they border on being syrups) and hence contain huge amounts of energy; a problem for weight loss. Nonetheless, it has been shown that the caffeine and taurine in these drinks can help heavy weightlifters with a small energy burst for such things as weightlifting competitions. Because the osmolarity of these drinks is very high (osmolarity means the amount of water a substance absorbs from another), they actually dehydrate you. In addition, the caffeine in these energy drinks is a diuretic (which makes you want to pass urine more frequently), and this can be a dangerous combination for endurance athletes or regular people who do not drink enough water. Even the sugar free energy drinks contain stimuli in them that can adversely affect your nervous system in the short term for sensitive people. So our advice is to use these drinks very sparingly on special occasions!

So is good old water the answer? For most people, yes. And it does not even have to be bottled water either - tap water is fine. Plus, tap water is better for the environment, the fluoride in it promotes healthy teeth, and it's almost free! Nevertheless, try to always carry a bottle of water (that can be refilled) with you throughout the day to ensure that you remain hydrated. Hydration is the key to weight loss as it promotes a more rapid metabolism, which in turn helps you to burn energy more easily.
