Paid reviews can boosting your site traffic

To review something means to evaluate it. An evaluation generally relies on the reviewer’s personal knowledge or experience concerning an item. Paid reviews are those in which the person giving the evaluation has been paid to do so. Some people question this practice, wondering if people who write paid reviews are able to remain impartial.

There are a lot of paid to reviews program around the Internet. They have several ways in attracted the reviewer and advertiser to join with them.

Licensed practical nurses (LPNs), or licensed vocational nurses (LVNs) (in California and Texas), or registered practical nurses (RPNs) (in Ontario, Canada). It does take about 9-12 months to become LPN, usually no degree earned, many just have a certificate and not a degree, trained to take vital signs, i.e., height, weight, blood pressure, temperature, respiration, and pulse. pass certain medications, can do certain skills like treating bed sores and other wounds / dressing changes, etc..

17 Mixed Beans & Turkey Soup

Here's a little concoction that I came up with, super easy, very hardy, and very little to it! This is a different soup with chunks of ground turkey in it or try it with left over turkey chunks if you're feeling adventurous! The red wine in it gives it a really great flavor, making it taste different than most typical bean soups. **Warning, you need to soak your beans the night before, so this isn't a last minute guy!

Ingredients:

2 TBSP Grape Seed Oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 large (or 2 medium) yellow onions, chopped

5 stalks celery, chopped

2-3 carrots, chopped

1 bag of mixed beans (I buy mine at TJ's)

1 package of ground turkey

1 28 oz. can of diced tomatoes

2 (32 oz) cartons of Vegetable Broth (also from TJ's)

3 handfuls spinach, rinsed

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1/2 tsp oregano

1/2 tsp marjoram

1/8 cup red wine

Here's the bag of Beans & Barley I used...

Directions:

This recipe does require a little fore-thought, you need to soak your beans over night in a large bowl or pot of water. When you are ready to cook, use a slotted spoon and remove and floating ]extras and drain and rinse your beans. Then, in your biggest pot, add your oil and all your chopped veggies. Let those saute while you brown the ground turkey in a separate pan, adding some salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the turkey while it's cooking. When the turkey is browned and the veggies are sauteed, combine them and add your drained beans and veggie broth. Dump in your tomatoes and add your seasoning and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce and let simmer for 1 hour. Add spinach for the last 5 minutes and serve with french bread or solo- you choose.

Beans soaking over night...

Drain your beans and rinse in a collander...
All the ingredients before the broth...

Pumpkin Pie- (not from scratch!!!) and Homemade Whip Cream

Now, I know a lot of you out there are working hard at gettin' food on the table... so here's a little something you can do to cut some corners. With the holidays coming up, kids running around your ankles, and the calendar overflowing, there are some short-cuts that I prefer to take... especially when I am bringing more than one dish (more like 4!!!) to our Thanksgiving Feast! If you want that yummy pumpkin pie that everyone will ohhh and ahh over, here's your ticket- and they'll be amazed, it's still warm in a homemade dish not a store bought container!!! The secret, it's on the back of "Liby's" can!!!

1 can Liby's pumpkin (& follow her recipe plus 1 secret ingredient!)

3/4 cup sugar

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground ginger

1/4 tsp ground cloves

1/4 tsp nutmeg ** the one thing I add to the mix

2 large eggs

1 can evaporated milk

Pie Crust- if you have the necessary tools, make your own crust, if not, go out and get your self a premaid, prerolled, uncooked refrigerated pie crust by Pilsbury.

Directions:

Mix sugar and spices together in a small bowl. In a larger bowl, beat eggs, add sugar mixture and pumpkin and gradually stir in the evaporated milk. Lay your pie crust in a pie dish and push it to the sides of the dish, pour the mixture and bake for 15 minutes on 425 then turn your oven down to 350 and let it bake another 40 -50 minutes until you can stick a knife in towards the center and it comes out clean. Let it cool about 2 hours before serving.

TIP To save your crust from getting too brown, cut strips of foil and cover the crust all the way around the pie, then 20 minutes before it's done, remove them and they will turn a beautiful golden brown!

Don't forget the homemade whip cream!!!

Ingredients:

1/2 pint heavy cream

3 TBSP powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla

Directions:

Pour ingredients in a glass bowl and beat on medium-high until it's fluffy! Refrigerate and serve a dollup with your pumpkin pie!

Homemade Apple Pie

Just in time for the holidays.....

My dad is by far the BEST APPLE PIE MAKING MACHINE OUT THERE! Without fail, his pies turn out beautiful and delicious everytime, no buts about that! I love going up for a visit during apple season, you can bet he'll be in the kitchen whipping up one of his famous crispy, warm, toasted, sweet yet a little tart- apple pies... you droolin' yet??? I am!

Ingredients:

6 thinly sliced apples (I do 4 tart, 2 sweet)

3/4 cup sugar

1/4 cup flour

1/2 tsp. nutmeg

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 tsp. salt

2 TBSP butter

1 TBSP lemon juice

pie crust, homemade or refrigerated, uncooked like Pilsbury

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 425. Lay your pie crusts in your pie dish and let sit. Stir together your sugar, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, lemon juice and salt. Peel, core, and slice your apples and add them to the mixture, gently mixing them. Pour the mixture into the dishes and cut your butter into slices and lay them on top of the apples. Cover it with the top crust, seal and flute it. Cover the edges of the pie with foil so that it doesn't burn and remove the foil for the last 15 minutes so it can turn a golden crispy brown. Cut a few slits in the top to let air and moisture escape. Bake it for 40- 50 minutes until the juice begins to bubble through the slits in the crust. Remove, let cool for a bit, but serve warm solo or a la mode!

Need some help choosing the right apples? Try these: Granny Smith, Gravenstein, Pippin, Fuij, Braeburn, and Pink Lady

Spinach Salad with Nuts, Crans, & Apples

This is a great salad to make this time of year, apples are at their peak and it looks festive in fall colors of green, red, and cranberry. It's easy with minimal chopping, therefore great to prep before hand and bring along to large gatherings (it's what I am taking to Thanksgiving Dinner!). **You can also substitute the spinach for romaine if you prefer.

Ingredients:

spinach

candied pecans (or walnuts)

apples chopped

cranraisins

goat cheese (or feta if you prefer)

balsamic dressing (use fresh garlic, it's wonderful!!!)

Directions:

Wash and spin your spinach and refrigerate until ready to eat. Candy your nuts with this recipe, the cinnamon in it gives the salad a wonderful flavor! Chop your nuts and store them in a ziplock until serving. You can prepare this salad ahead of time and then put it all together right before you eat. At the last minute, chop you apples, throw in your cheese & nuts, and pour on the dressing. Toss and serve.

Meal Plan for Nov. 22- 28

Here we go, nice and easy for this Thanksgiving week....

Sunday: heat up a frozen soup

Monday: Lime Chicken Tacos & Green Salad

Tuesday: Mixed Bean & Ground Turkey Soup

Wednesday: Gremolata Mahi Mahi & Baked Sweet Potatoes

Thursday: Thanksgiving Feast!!!

Friday: left over Turkey Dinner

Saturday: Black Bean Chili (Crock Pot)

Baked Chicken....

So when it starts to get colder, I find myself not wanting to BBQ as much and instead wanting to heat up the oven- so in that case, try this simple recipe for baked chicken, using whatever seasoning you are feelin' up for!

Super simple, here's what to do: take out a Pyrex dish, I spray a little Olive Oil spray on it then I wash and pat dry my chicken breasts, and sprinkle some salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Then pop them in your preheated oven at 400 degrees and let them bake for approximately 40 minutes (depending on how thick they are). I stick my thermometer in them and when it reads 170 I know it's done, or cut one of them in half and make sure it's no longer pink and the liquids are clear. The last 5- 10 minutes you can add some BBQ sauce if so desired! Enjoy!!! *** Picture: Served with simple asparagus and Harvest Grains from Trader Joe's****

A New Favourite Book - The Urban Vegan

I have been a fan of Dynise Balcavage's blog The Urban Vegan for years. I love reading about her daily life, her food, her cats, and trying out her delicious Vegan recipes.

Dynise describes herself as having been cooking since the age of seven. She lives in a large city with it's variety of food and has travelled to 30 countries with their special local foods. This is probably why she has many ideas to choose from when she decides to create or adapt a recipe for Vegans.

I was therefore thrilled when Dynise decided to publish a cookbook as I knew I would enjoy it. The book is called The Urban Vegan - 250 Simple, Sumptuous Recipes from Street Cart Favorites to Haute Cuisine. My copy of the book arrived on Friday.

The large format paperback and the fact even the longer recipes fit onto one page, will make it easy to work with in the kitchen. An added bonus to the tasty recipes given are that each one is accompanied by an interesting description. I have one word to describe the dishes...scrumptious. They will be loved by both Vegan and Omnivores. There is even a Happy Hour or Sundowner section as I call it.

The first couple of recipes I tried out were the Sweet Potato Gnocchi with the Basil-Fennel Cream and the Easy Passion Fruit Mousse. They were both delicious.

I suggest you pop out and get this book or order online as I am sure, like me, you will add it to your favourite cookbooks.

Important information about swine flu

Swine flu is the common name given to a new strain of influenza (flu). It is called swine flu because it is thought to have originated in pigs, but this is not certain. Swine flu (swine influenza) is a respiratory disease caused by viruses (influenza viruses) that infect the respiratory tract of pigs and result in nasal secretions, a barking-like cough, decreased appetite, and listless behavior. The viruses name is H1N1 virus.

Swine flu produces most of the same symptoms in pigs as human flu produces in people. Swine flu can last about one to two weeks in pigs that survive. Swine influenza virus was first isolated from pigs in 1930 in the U.S. and has been recognized by pork producers and veterinarians to cause infections in pigs worldwide.

Symptoms

So far, most swine flu cases have been mild, with symptoms similar to those of seasonal flu. Only a small number of people have had more serious symptoms.

If you or a member of your family has a fever or high temperature (over 38°C/100.4°F) and two or more of the following symptoms, you may have swine flu:

• Unusual tiredness,
• Cough
• Headache,
• Runny nose,
• Sore throat,
• Chills
• Shortness of breathes or coughs,
• Loss of appetite,
• Aching muscles,
• Diarrhea or vomiting.

How dangerous is it?

It is difficult to judge this at the moment. Like any other type of flu, people can die from swine flu if they develop complications, such as pneumonia. There have been deaths, but for most infected people the symptoms have not been severe. It appears that early doses of antiviral medicines such as Tamiflu and Relenza are effective in helping people to recover.

Pandemic

The virus was first identified in Mexico in April 2009. It has since become a pandemic, which means it has spread around the globe. It has spread quickly because it is a new type of flu virus that few, if any, people have full resistance to.

Flu pandemics are a natural event that occurs from time to time. Last century, there were flu pandemics in 1930, when millions of people died across the world.

In most cases the virus has proved relatively mild. However, around the world hundreds of people have died and it is not yet clear how big a risk the virus is. For this reason, and because all viruses can mutate to become more potent (stronger), scientists are saying we need to be careful.

Can novel H1N1 swine flu be prevented with a vaccine?

The best way to prevent novel H1N1 swine flu would be the same best way to prevent other influenza infections, and that is vaccination. The CDC (The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the US agency charged with tracking and investigating public health trends) has multiple recommendations for vaccination based on who should obtain the first doses when the vaccine becomes available (to protect the most susceptible populations) and according to age groups. The CDC based the recommendations on data obtained from vaccine trials and infection reports gathered over the last few months. The current (October 2009) vaccine recommendations from the CDC say the following groups (Swine Flu High Risk Groups) should get the vaccine as soon as it is available:

• Pregnant women,
• People who live with or provide care for children younger than 6 months of age,
• Health-care and emergency medical services personnel,
• People between 6 months and 24 years of age, and
• People from the ages of 25 through 64 who are at higher risk because of chronic health disorders such as asthma, diabetes, or a weakened immune system.

Although five companies are making H1N1 swine flu shots, including Sanofi Pasteur, Novartis, GSK, Medimmune and CSL, doctors won't be able to directly order swine flu vaccine from them. Instead, the federal government is purchasing all of the swine flu shots and then is distributing them via a centralized distribution program. Pediatricians and other health care providers can order swine flu vaccine if they want to receive swine flu vaccine to give their patients.

As with ordinary flu, people who come down with swine flu should take lots of rest and use standard paracetamol-based cold remedies to reduce their temperature and help relieve symptoms.

Some of the over-the-counter treatments used by adults can be given to children for the relief of the symptoms of flu, in line with the instructions supplied with each medicine. However, children under 16 must not be given aspirin or ready-made flu remedies containing aspirin. It is important to always read the label or check with the pharmacist that a medicine is suitable for use in children.

How to prevent from swine flu?

Preventing the spread of germs is the most effective way to slow the spread of diseases such as swine flu. You should always:

• Ensure everyone washes their hands regularly with soap and water,
• Clean surfaces regularly to get rid of germs,
• Use tissues to cover your mouth and nose when you cough or sneeze, and
• Put used tissues in a bin as soon as possible.
• Cleaning hard surfaces, such as door handles, often and thoroughly using a normal cleaning product

That is the little explanation about Swine Flu. I hope this information be useful for everyone whose read it. Simple things to do are healthier life and don’t panic.

Meal Plan for Nov. 15th- 22nd...

Here she is, this weeks meal set up. I am really trying hard to get more out of our meals, so I am doubling and freezing where I can to save me time.

Sunday- BBQ Marinated Flank Steak, Asparagus, Harvest Grains

Monday- Black Bean Soup (doubled, freeze half)

Tuesday- Big Green Salad with left over steak on top (maybe with a slice of Parmesan Toast if needed!)

Wednesday- Roasted Veggie Pasta with Chicken (doubled)

Thursday- Santa Fe Pizza

Friday- left over Pasta

Saturday- out

I will buy the big chunk of mozerella cheese and use half of it in the pasta dish and the other half on the pizza (but shred it all at once on Wednesday to save on time and clean up). Also, you can change up the beans on the Santa Fe to Pinto Beans if black beans twice in the same week is too much for you- you make the call!

Black Bean Soup

Okay so this soup actually turned out really great, so different and totally not what I was expecting. I found the recipe on someone's blog (sorry can't remember where!) it didn't have a picture so I didn't know what to expect, but I thought I would give it a whirl! And I am glad I did! It made lots (maybe because I always add more than what's called for) so I froze it and heated it up on a day when I didn't feel like cooking. If you do the same, serve half of it and pour the other half in a freezer bag, lay it flat to freeze, and once it's frozen, you can stand it up right and store lots of frozen entrees like little books in your freezer!

Ingredients

1 large yellow onion, chopped

1 large green bell pepper, chopped

4 stalks celery, chopped

2 cans black beans

1 jar salsa

3 cups vegetable broth

1/2 cup barley or cous cous

2 cups frozen corn

2 shredded carrots

2 tsp. cumin

4 tsp. fresh lime juice

2 cloves garlic, minced

Directions:

In a large pot, drizzle your grape seed oil, saute your onion, green pepper, celery and garlic for about 5 minutes, turning every once in a while. While that is cooking, drain 1 can black beans and dump them in the pot and add 1 can of black beans to your blender and puree until smooth and dump that in as well. Next, add your salsa, veggie broth, barley (I used whole wheat cous cous cause that's what I had on hand), carrots, corn, cumin, and lime juice. Stir everything together, bring to a boil, and cover on low to simmer for 30 minutes.

Peanut Clusters

These remind me of my childhood, our sweet neighbor would make them every year for Christmas and bring us a bag of them. They are so so so simple, even the non-baker can whip these up--- and let your kids join in, they are error proof!

Ingredients

1 lb. white chocolate

2 cups rice crispy cereal

2 cups Spanish Peanuts (they have red skins on them and are salted in the snack isle)

Directions

I like to buy the chocolate in chips (Trader Joe's sells white chocolate chips) because they melt faster and more evenly verses a bar, so put your chocolate in a glass bowl (if you are using your microwave) or your double boiler (if you are using your stove) to melt them. Melt them to a smooth consistency (if you are using your microwave, do in increments of 30 seconds and stir in between, should take around 1 minute 30 seconds to melt them). Next add your nuts and cereal, stir lots until everything is evenly mixed and then get out your cookie sheets lined in parchment paper. Using a spoon scoop them in dollops onto the sheet, you will probably need 2 cookie sheets. Stick them in the fridge for about 1 hour to firm up. Package them in cute cellophane bags, Chinese take out boxes, or something of the like and share them with those you love!

** Side notes: I have tried them with milk chocolate and dark chocolate, and I have to be honest, white chocolate turns out the best.... but the others are good too so feel free to mix it up if you want to!

Chocolate & Carmel Turtles

Here the are before going in the oven, all laid out on the cookie sheet...

Close up

Finished Product!!!

Here's something quick and easy, great for a last minute gift- fill up a tin or a jar with these for the holidays- or use them as favors for a shower--- or heck, just eat 'em, they are SOOO good and literally take minutes!

Ingredients:

pretzels, the twisted kind

rolos

pecan halves (you can use different nuts, but pecans turn out the best!)

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 200. Place twisted pretzels on the cookie sheet, unwrap your rolos and place them on top of the pretzel. Fill up the cookie sheet. Pop them in the oven for 4-5 minutes, pull them out and push a pecan half into the center of the rolo. Let them chill in the fridge for about 1 hour, pop them off with a spatula and package them up to share with others!

The last time I made these, my sister-in-law and I packaged them up like this for a baby shower!

Asparagus Dipping Sauce...

8 apples (4 sweet, 4 sour)

salt

cinnamon

Topping

1 cup sugar

1/2 brown sugar

1/2 butter, soften

3/4 cups flour

3/4 cup oats

Directions

Preheat oven to 350. Take out a 9 x 13 pyrex dish. Wash, peel and slice your apples (the most time consuming part) making sure your apple slices are the same so they bake the same. Put them in your pyrex as you go, once you have enough apples to fill your dish to the top, generously sprinkle your cinnamon and give a shake of salt evenly over the dish. Mix it all up, add more cinnamon if needed, then start on the topping. Mix all those ingredients together, spoon it over the apples evenly and bake it for 45 minutes until it's golden brown on top. Let it cool for 5 minutes before cutting. Serve it solo or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Hot Apple Cider

This is a staple for a holiday party, or anytime you see fit after fall begins. I remember as a kid my mom would make this on Halloween and it would be wafting through the door when we came home all chilly from Trick-or-Treating. It's the perfect thing to warm up your insides! Welcome fall!

Ingredients

3 qt. apple juice

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 tsp. cloves

1/4 tsp. nutmeg

slices of orange *** optional

Directions:

Pour everything into a big pot, warm over medium heat (don't bring to a boil) but heat it enough to let all the ingredients combine. Then turn it to low and serve with a laddle straight from the pot. You can reheat and reserve this if you have left overs.

Sepakbola bukan hanya cabang olahraga untuk kesehatan

Kalau berbicara mengenai dunia bola memang tidak akan pernah ada habisnya. Sepakbola masa kini telah berubah. Sepakbola tidak hanya sebuah permainan bola tangkas dan bukan lagi sebuah cabang olahraga yang sekedar untuk menyehatkan badan.

Pada awal mulanya sepakbola diperkenalkan sebagai cabang olahraga. Dari asal kata olah raga. Olah artinya mempergunakan atau memanfaatkan, dan raga yang artinya badan atau fisik. Nah menurut hal tersebut tentunya kita bisa ambil kesimpulan bahwa olah raga artinya memberdayakan badan untuk suatu usaha. Usaha disini pada awalnya adalah usaha untuk membuat badan tetap sehat, fit, segar dan bugar. Tetapi lama kelamaan olah raga (dalam hal ini sepakbola) telah berubah. Olahraga berarti memanfaatkan raga untuk mendapatkan sesuatu materi (belum tentu uang lho?).


Bahkan ada orang yang memanfaatkan sepakbola sebagai lading untuk mencari keuntungan tanpa terlibat langsung dalam kancah sepakbola. Siapakah mereka? Yah .. mereka adalah penggemar sepakbola sekaligus penggemar betting bola. Seperti di AGENBOLA misalnya. Ada beribu-ribu anggota didalamnya. Mereka mendapatkan kemudahan-kemudahan untuk mengikuti betting bola. Agenbola bahkan melayani pembukaan account bola di SBOBET dan IBCBET yang mana sbobet dan ibcbet adalah website betting bola terbesar di ASIA saat ini.

Lalu seperti apakah sepakbola menurut Anda?
