Recovering faster than a speeding asthmatic on steroids.
2009-06-11 20:11:00 Ive only been out of the hospital for 4 days now , and despite being still quite sick, I’m actually starting to feel more and more normal again (thats a scary thought huh). Though very limited, today I was able to resume my daily walks. I don’t think healthy people realize just how much of an impact a single severe asthma exacerbation can have on the rest the body…It takes a lot out of you and sometimes the treatment is as bad as the disease. All the IVs and tubes they insert in you, and all the drugs they pump through them , effect not only your lungs, but the all the other body systems as well. I always come out of the hospital majorly bruised and beat up. This time in particular, it did a number on my arm and leg muscles. In just 10 days I went from having moderate upper body strength, to having absolutely none at all. Just 3 days prior to this last hospitalization, I was lifting weights in the 80-120 lb range on the weight training machines at the gym. T...

Speeding Impacts Car Insurance Premiums
2008-06-04 00:48:00 A lack of knowledge about basic road rules - including the national speed limit - is driving car insurance premiums through the roof.A comparison website put 2,500 drivers to the test on basic road rules and found that an incredible one in three (33 per cent) do not know the national speed limit despite the fact that exceeding the speed limit causes more than 7,000 accidents - 14 per cent of which are fatal.A further 14 per cent rely on signs to know how fast they should be driving - with 16,000 accidents caused by drivers going too fast for the road conditions.As if the accident statistics aren't bad enough, car insurance premiums are soaring as a result. It is estimated that customers collectively pay an extra 854million a year for car insurance just by making one claim as insurers are forced to pay out 23million a day in claims - the equivalent of nearly 1million an hour.Being involved in an accident will have a knock-on effect on your individual car insurance too - typically on...

more blink- visual perception- faster than a speeding bullet
2008-05-24 00:13:00 Our minds process visual information at a rapid rate, which makes it tough for designers who need to create both instant impact and depth. However, if people get the chance to click their mouse and move away because their perception tells them there's no point to going deeper, it means impact is everything. Recent research conducted by the University of Vienna shows just how fast people process visual information. Its study focused on art and asked subjects to compare similarities and differences in various pieces. Researchers found that subjects could register content in less than 1/100th of a second. Within 1/20th of a second subjects had already started to interpret style. All this happening before recognition of the whole object. It shows that art directors and designers have less time than we originally thought to capture attention and stop people from clicking away with their remote button or mouse. Posted by Ed Cotton

Fast unsecured loans: speeding the approval of your loan
2008-05-05 17:59:00 By Robert Langdon It may seem to most of us that not providing collateral may act as an impediment in the approval of our loan application. But ironically, sometimes not providing the collateral can benefit us all the more. With fast unsecured loans, the urgency in the requirement of money can be solved easily. The main benefit here in obtaining fast unsecured loans is that by doing so, a lot of time of the borrower is saved as no assets are to be checked for disputes or have to be evaluated for equity. When an asset is pledged as collateral, then the lender before approving the loan goes through these processes for the asset. All this takes up valuable time of the borrower and he may not receive the money when he requires it urgently. Since fast unsecured loans do not require any collateral for pledging, any borrower can take up these loans. However, the borrower has to be employed regularly for getting approval and should have a regular monthly read more
