What is church for the atheists?

Q. What is church for the atheists?
A. Church is the brainwashing and money making machine using God and Jesus Christ as a highest level of placebo.
From the Bible: God forgives freely anyone that comes to Him if he (she) believes in God.
It means any believer can commit a crime (or sin) everyday and get forgiveness from God and be happy after that.
 That is very dangerous.
Many believers live like that and church doesn't punish for that.
Only non-believers in God live according to the state law. If you commit a crime you will punish for that without any forgiveness from the law. That is absolutely right.

IE back button doesn't work properly with Google search. How can I fix it?

Q. IE11 back button doesn't work properly with Google search. How can I fix it?
A. If any attempts in IE11 Internet Options cannot help we have only one way to fix it.
      Install Google search tool bar and now back button will work properly (no double-click to go to Google search result).
     Old PCs with average speed cannot save cookies fast enough to store Google redirected search links.
     New faster PCs store these cookies and when you click back button you will go to redirected link but not back to Google search result.
     IE11 is very fast browser. Other browser have slightly less performance and skipped redirected cookies.
     Installation of the Google tool bar makes IE11 works differently. Now back button will work on any fastest PC.
     If you highlight any words on your webpage Google search bar will automatically copy its.
     If some websites still don't go back with Google search, download Firefox web browser and you will never get trouble with back button.
    My last research shows that we should abandon any IE version, especially for Windows 10, and make Google Chrome as a default browser. No more headache.
   I like to remove everything when I close Chrome. You can do it easy:
   Go to Settings/Show Advance Settings. You will see 2 buttons: 'Content settings...' and 'Clear browsing data'. For 'Content settings...' /Keep local data until you quit browser. For 'Clear browsing data' /check all boxes. Also you can create desktop shortcut (like IE): 'More tools'/Add to desktop...'

What is the best healthy salt?

Q. What is the best healthy salt?
A. French Salt.
     From the company:
French sea salt, also known as Celtic sea salt, is naturally harvested in Brittany, a city in France that is close to the Celtic Sea. In addition to the salt adding exceptional flavor to food and keeping meats and vegetables fresh, the seasoning provides a number of health benefits as well.
Celtic sea salt has the ability to lower the blood pressure and normalize the heart beat. While processed salt raises the blood pressure, salt in its purest form purifies the blood and promotes circulation. French sea salt can also help to raise blood pressure for individuals whose levels are too low.
Daily intake of French salt in moderate amounts can also boost the function of the brain. The salt helps the central nervous system to function properly and enhances the ability of the cells to properly process information. Excess acid and other toxins are also extracted from the brain cells when sea salt is consumed.
Individuals with diabetes should use Celtic sea salt instead of regular table salt for its ability to balance blood sugars. Adding the salt to a meal will keep glucose levels steady and help to prevent hypoglycemia hours after consuming a meal.
Celtic sea salt is also used as a natural beauty treatment. A facial mask made of the salt with help to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The salt also removes toxins from the face for a glowing and youthful complexion. Adding French sea salt to a bath can also draw impurities from the body. The salt can reduce inflammation in the joints as well, which is why people with conditions like arthritis and fibromyalgia often use sea salt for its healing properties.

How can I spot the fake products (well-known brand)?

Q. How can I spot the fake products (well-known brand)?
A.
1. Example:
If somebody bought from DHgate.com (China) Samsung 64GB microSD card,
and after 3.7GB all files become corrupted, your SD card is fake. You can see http://fake-electronics.blogspot.com/2013/12/fake-samsung-64gb-microsd-card.html about that fake card.

Don't buy any electronic items from DHgate.com if they have well know brand name. With well-known brand name all items are fake:
SD cards have wrong volume or reading/writing speed.
SD card readers have very low transfer rate speed.
Headphones will be broken after 2-3 weeks.
Cellphones will have half of original functions.
Auto electronics will show wrong measurements.
And so on...

2. Example:
   If you use trusted websites (e.g. Amazon) to buy the same microSD card you will see the different prices for the same items on the same account. Why? Because somebody hacked  trusted websites account to sell fake items under the trusted  user account.
Beware!

What are the difference between a power in VA and Watt?

Q. What are the difference between a power in VA and Watt?
A.
VA (Volt- Ampere) is input power of any electrical device, e.g. 120V*5A=600VA.
It means that device takes from electric line (120V) 5A.
Watt is output power of the same device (e.g. UPS, Transformer, Power Supply), 120V*3A=360Watt.
Different is 360/600=60%. 60% is Power Factor or Power Efficiency of the electrical device. For e.g. Transformer has input 1000VA and 800Watt output. Power Factor is 80%.
20% lost inside transformer on a heat.

Why do I have headache after drinking a wine?

Q. Why do I have headache after drinking a wine?
A.
I was in Paris and tasted some red and white wine. I was surprised that there was no any headache with any wine. Now I understand why I have headache after drinking any wine in US? The answer is simple: any US wine has chemical preservative sulfites.
I've found online that the biggest complaint about sulfites is the side effect of headaches.
My advice is if you don't want the side effect from sulfites drink organic wine or go to Europe (France, Italy, Spain).

BlackBerry Storm customers complain

I had Blackberry Storm. Now I have other because this is the worst touch web enabled cell phone. My friends have iPhone and G1. If you open Yahoo main page from iPhone or G1 you can see everything like from laptop. You can click on any link and go. But Blackberry works with javascript enabled may be 50% from iPhone and G1. You cannot click on many links with Blackberry. I have account Adsense and I cannot open it. iPhone and G1 works. Blackberry works only with the links as a string. Another problem is freezing. Many times and you will crazy. Touch screen is terrible. If you'll try to touch with finger and after that hit the same place 50% will be the wrong entry.

What is maximum memory Windows 32bit can utilise?

Q. What is maximum memory Windows 32bit can utilise?
A. The maximum amount of memory that your system can use is actually limited in two ways — not only is there a maximum amount of memory that your computer motherboard can accept, there is also a maximum amount of memory that your operating system (OS) can accept.
For instance, when you install 4GB of memory in a 32-bit Windows system (the most common version; 64-bit systems are typically used only by high-end users), your system will see (and utilize) only 3GB or 3.5GB.
Is the problem bad memory?
Relax, there isn’t a problem with the memory. Windows allows for 4GB of memory to be addressed, but this isn’t 100 % the same as having 4GB of physical memory.
What happens is that some of the addressable memory (regardless of how much you have physically installed) is reserved for use by page files or by some of the devices that you are using, such as a graphics card, PCI card, integrated network connections, etc., so it’s unavailable for use as normal main memory.

Which color bell pepper is the best and why?

Q. Which color bell pepper is the best and why?
A.
Choose red bell peppers for their high levels of antioxidant vitamins A and C, which help protect cells from free radicals. One cup of chopped red peppers contains three times the minimum amount of vitamin C and nearly 100 percent of the vitamin A recommended for a typical 2,000-calorie-a-day diet. Green and yellow peppers fall short in vitamin A. All peppers are naturally fat free and low calorie, and they contain three grams of fiber per chopped cup, making them excellent snacks or mealtime fillers.

How can I hide my public IP address for anonymous surfing?

Q. How can I hide my public IP address for anonymous surfing?
A.
When you connect to the internet, your home computer is assigned a public IP address.
As you visit Web sites or internet servers, that public IP address is transmitted and recorded in log files kept on those servers.
To hide your IP address (surf web anonymously) you need to run an anonymous proxy server.
That server will assign different from yours public IP address.
For example, if you live in one country, your new IP address will be visible like you are in the other country.
I've found one free an anonymous proxy server program ProxyWay 5.0. The best way to download this program from softpedia.com (Softpedia guarantees that ProxyWay 5.0 is 100% clean, which means it does not contain any form of malware, including spyware, viruses, trojans and backdoors). Save the file and run, follow the prompt. Next click ProxyWay Auto Configuration button, follow the prompt. Done.
Note 1: first time search on Google will stoped with warning: We're sorry... To continue searching, please type the characters... It's OK because your new IP address is not from your country. Just type characters and next time everything will be OK. Yahoo search works without additional warnings.
Note 2: only use button proxy On/Off from main screen ProxyWay when your browser is closed to change your surfing mode. If you will exit ProxyWay program and your web browser cannot connect to the internet, just resart browser or computer. To enable again anonymous surfing (if you exited program) go to main screen of ProxyWay and click Proxy button to run auto configuration.
Note 3: ProxyWay program will run on start-up. To disable it go to msconfig-> Startup-> uncheck proxyway->Apply.
Note 4: Make sure every time when you restart your computer you need to click on Proxy button to run Auto Configuration and choose your browser for surfing.
You can check how it works. First, before installation the proxy server open proxyblind.org . That website will show you on left top your IP address and country. Then install ProxyWay 5.0 and open again proxyblind.org . You will see different IP address and country. It means you are in anonymouse mode. Open proxyblind.org every time if you want to check your new IP address.
Your real (static) IP will be invisible but your location (visible IP) will be different every time when you'll make Auto Configuration.
To check your real (static) IP address go to (for WinXP) Start->Run-> type: cmd /k ipconfig
->OK. You will see your static IP address is different from visible on proxyblind.org

How to make money online: tips for beginners

Q. How can I make money online?
A. First create your own free blog. Blogger is a free blog publishing tool from Google for easily sharing your thoughts with the world. WordPress blog is slightly complicated but also is free.
Second insert into your blog Google AdSense or/and Amazon Ads:
1. Google AdSense.
Google AdSense is a fast and easy way for website publishers of all sizes to display relevant Google ads on their website's content pages and earn money. Read more...
Tip #1 Ads can work well in-between other stuff.
Tip #2 Put too much emphasis on AdSense and your site may be linked to less.
Tip #3 Even if you get huge traffic, the AdSense income from the site is more dependent on the site type and audience.
Tip #4 Image ads can be relevant and work for you, but they might also apall some visitors.
Tip #5 When it comes to context sensitive targeting, you can increase or lower the importance of certain parts of your page.
Tip #6 Use competing ad systems when AdSense doesn't seem to work for a site.
Tip #7 Consider using AdSense even when the page doesn't get any traffic yet.
Tip #8 Making money with AdSense takes time.

What is more efficiently: switching the light ON and OFF or leaving it ON?

Q. What is more efficiently: switching the light ON and OFF or leaving it ON?
A. If your lamp is 100W and voltage is 120V the lamp impedance will be 144 ohm.
First 0.1 sec (start up) after turning the light ON the lamp impedance is about 10 times less (~15 ohm) and power will be about 1000W (0.1sec) or 100W (1sec).
It means turning the light ON equal to leaving it ON for 1 sec.
This is a minute amount and no efficiency at all.
So it makes sense to always turn the lamp (an incandescent bulb) off when you leave a room, even if it's only for a few minutes.
But frequently switching ON and OFF will make shorter the bulb life.
Energy Star recommends installing florescent bulbs (CFLs) in fixtures that are used for at least 15 minutes at time. Read more...
So it doesn't make sense to use them in places where you'd need to switch them on and off constantly.

What does green tea smell like?

Q. What does green tea smell like?
A. If there is no smell to the dry leaves they are very suspect. Green tea should have a light, fresh, soothing fragrance, from a light orchid to a chestnutty smell.
Black tea should have a sweet, floral fragrance.
The tea industry still uses lower quality tea for teabags, and for mixing with fruits, herbs and other flavorings. The best teabags you can find at Generation Tea and David's Tea , who use their excellent organic loose leaf teas to make teabags of real character and quality. If the smell of your green tea is like Manure or Fish choose other brand.

What is the best bit rate for MP3 music?

Q. What is the best bit rate for MP3 music?
A.
96kbs: The sound clearly lacks definition: as an example, hall's noises are perceived as some breath. The result is comparable to a good FM radio.
112kbs: The sound seems less present and less natural than the original. The definition is a bit less good, the voice is less clear. Attacks are less spontaneous. The spatialization is different from the original recording: the sound seems to be located more far and more lower. There is however a very noticeable improvement compared to 96kbs.
128kbs: Hall's noises are slightly less defined than the original. The violin is a bit less present and the piano attacks a bit less sharp. The voice is nearly identical to the original recording but sibilants are less pronounced. We can notice the same spatialization problem as with the 112kbs's one although there is again a good improvement compared to the 112kbs rate.
160kbs: The sound is more natural than 128kbs but the improvement is less spectacular than during the two preceding stages. The sound is different from the original, without however being possible to tell in what. I think that the difference resides more in what we feel rather than in what we hear.
192kbs: The sound is not felt as the original recording. It is however totally impossible to tell in what.
256kbs: The sound is indiscernible from the original. It is impossible to make the difference with the original recording.
320kbs: The sound is indiscernible from the original. It is impossible to make the difference with the original recording.
CD Audio: The sound of the burned CD is strictly identical the manufactured CD. This test, although it could appear useless, is however necessary so in order to insure that it is impossible that the burning step introduces differences, that would have falsified tests.

It is clear that the 128kbs rate does not produce a quality equal to a CD on a good quality Hi-Fi installation. We can wonder if Fraunhofer's institute has not made an error by limiting its ACM pro codec to 128kbs. However, in the context of a computer use, the quality is equal to the one obtained by reading an Audio CD on a CD-ROM reader. The quality at 128kbs is also indentical to the one obtained with the original CD on a mini or midi Hi-Fi installation, and on the vast majority of Hi-Fi installations in separated elements. The test equipment is indeed better than the majority of Hi-fi installations.

Conclusion : For a computer use, the 128kbs rate produces a quality equal to an audio CD. But in the case of an MP3 use in advanced Hi-Fi, it is necessary to use a 256kbs bitrate to reach an identical result to the CD sound.

How can I lower my cholesterol?

Q. How can I lower my cholesterol?
A. Cholesterol 3 main components:
HDL (good) cholosterol,
LDL (bad) cholosterol,
Triglycerides.
Everyone with high cholesterol needs to keep it under control, but it may be even more important for some groups of people, such as
People with a family history of early heart disease
People with high blood pressure
People with diabetes
Males over age 45
Females over age 55
Smokers
“Good” cholesterol is high-density lipoprotein. High levels of HDL protect you from heart attacks. HDL levels less than 40 mg/dL for men and less than 50 mg/dL for women may increase your risk for heart disease. HDL levels higher than 60 mg/dL may help protect you against heart disease.
"Bad” cholesterol is low-density lipoprotein. High levels of “bad” cholesterol in your body can clog your arteries and increase your risk of heart attack and stroke. Once there, it can combine with other substances to form plaque, which can narrow your arteries and make them less flexible. This is a medical condition called atherosclerosis. So for good health, keep your LDL low—below 100 mg/dL.
Triglyceride is a form of fat that’s made in your body. Triglyceride levels of 150 mg/dL or higher may increase your risk for heart disease.

There are some people who may not be able to lower their cholesterol through diet and activity alone so it's important to work with your physician.

To help lower blood cholesterol is soluble fiber.
Foods that are high in soluble fiber are: oats, oatmeal, barley, beans, peas, strawberries, apple pulp, rice bran and citrus fruits.
There is also some evidence that plant sterols and stanols are also able to assist with lowering cholesterol: most grains, vegetables, fruits, nuts, and in foods that have had them added to them (cereals, orange juice, and margarines like Benecol).

You should limit or omit the foods with high amounts of saturated fat and trans fat.
The sources of saturated fats are: whole milk, cheese, ice cream, butter, lard, meats, creams, palm, palm kernel and coconut oils. Buy two percent milk. Try to eat no more than two eggs a week. If you like eggs a lot save your two eggs for Sunday breakfast. Instead of butter use a vegetable margarine.
The sources of trans fats are: commercial baked goods (cake, cookies, crackers, donuts), vegetable shortening, fried foods, some margarines, and anything made with partially hydrogenated oil. Broil your meats instead of frying. If you must use cooking oil buy Canola oil or olive oil.
The trans fats and saturated fats have a greater impact on raising our blood cholesterol level than cholesterol from food.

What should I know about metabolism to lose and maintain my weight?

Q. What should I know about metabolism to lose and maintain my weight?
A.
Metabolism refers to the way -- not the speed – that your body processes and uses the food you eat.
Rather than "faster" or "slower" metabolism, it's most accurate to describe metabolism as efficient or functional versus inefficient or dysfunctional.
60-65% (basal metabolism) of calories you eat daily are spent providing basic energy for life support.
25% (activity) of your calories are for the physical activities.
10% (thermo effect) of calories are spent processing the food you eat.

To lose and maintain your weight you should:
1. Increase your Basal Metabolism by building muscle.
- Muscle cells are up to 8 times more metabolically active than fat cells, and muscle burns more calories than fat.
- An efficient metabolism also requires the smooth running of many complex body processes that rely on sufficient antioxidant vitamins such as vitamin C and the B vitamins.
- Dehydration can contribute to an inefficient metabolism. Making sure you drink enough liquids, preferably at least 64 ounces of water per day, to avoid this metabolic pitfall.
2. Increase Physical Activity.
3. Increase the Thermo Effect of Food.
Resting metabolic rate typically increases as much as 2 to 3 times more after eating proteins versus carbohydrates and fats.

Do you Know: 1 pound of fat burns only 2 calories a day while 1 pound of muscle burns 50 calories a day !!! The more muscle you build, the more efficient your metabolism will be, and the more calories you will burn while at rest. When muscle mass decreases, the metabolic rate also drops. Take apple cider vinegar+honey+garlic, chili, mustard, green tea, water, dietary fibers. It is good for the efficient metabolism.

You can not turn fat into muscle. If you want to lose fat and build muscle, you’re going to have to do both.

Green Tea is said to be an excellent fat burner. It regulates the glucose level in the body by keeping a check on the blood sugar level. It hampers the function of amylase, which is an enzyme that converts starch into sugar leading to cut on the excess availability of sugar to body. Green Tea also enhances the metabolism rate and thus, leads to fat burn. A component called catechins in the Green Tea is also said to lower the surplus cholesterol level. Green tea is also said to inhibit fatty acid synthase and controls appetite, which overall helps in drastic weight loss.
