2. Try Forefoot Running, It Might Just Reduce Your Injuries November 03, 2008 I feel as if I have just emerged from the dark ages. After many years of being told that I run incorrectly, I found that there is nothing wrong with running on the balls of your feet. In fact, most of the top runners are forefoot strikers. Not that I fall in the “top runner” category. After running for about 15 years and suffering from virtually every injury ever recorded for the leg from the knee downwards, I stopped running seriously for about 10 years except for the occasional jog. The beginning of this year I decided that it is time to seriously start running again. I reckoned that ... (read more) Author: Pete Little

3. Quick And Easy Ways For Starting a Successful Membership Website October 27, 2008 In the last few years, I have seen membership subscription websites take the Internet by storm. Most subscription sites offer their subscriptions for a fee; however, a handful offers their information for free to anyone who will provide an email address and name. The focus of this article will be on the fee-based membership subscription websites. Back in the Internet dark ages in 1997 or so, everyone expected everything online to be free of charge. For a few years, as more and more people purchased computers and chose to be online, that philosophy worked quite well. Around the year 2000, ... (read more) Author: Pooja Gupta

4. Cheap Web Hosting is No Bargain October 07, 2008 Ever heard the saying “Penny-wise and Dollar-foolish”? Well bargain priced website hosting may just represent the perfect example of watching a jar full of pennies while bucket loads of dollars fly out the window! When I launched my first website way back in the “dark ages” of 1997 I paid almost $150 a month in hosting and data transfer charges. My web host watched how many files I uploaded like a hawk and always seemed to send their hefty invoices earlier with each passing month. I’m obviously not the only one who felt that way, because suddenly a whole industry of ... (read more) Author: sriram naik

5. Body Cleansing Why Everyone Should Be Doing It September 16, 2008 It is a very sound theory that during the Dark Ages, when the plague ravaged so many people in many parts of the world, the two primary suspected culprits behind it are poor hygiene and poor immune system. Bacterial infection was rampant because living conditions were horrible and no one really knew how to keep bodily cleanliness among the masses. Cleanliness was, in fact, a luxury only afforded by the wealthy (and they were certainly not about to share.) It should be noted that during that time, the words "shampoo" and "body soap" were not really particularly en vogue yet. When diseases set i... (read more) Author: Robert Melkonyan

6. The Truth to Conquer Emotional Eating September 08, 2008 The Truth to conquer emotional eating is to manage your emotions. Yet managing emotions is not such an easy thing to do. With all the practice we as humans have had--that's centuries and centuries, we're still pretty much in the dark ages. And it just doesn't make sense for we are emotional beings. In fact our limbic emotional brain was developed before the reticular analytical brain. What is known is that all through out history, man has tried to "control" his emotions. The reticular portion of the brain has attempted to suppress the emotional limbic brain. There hasn't been to... (read more) Author: Richard Kuhns

7. Western saddles and Evolution on Saddles August 20, 2008 The western saddle has a remarkable history and development. While it is presently well thought-out as an exclusively American style, its origin can really be traced back to warriors of the Dark Ages and Moorish Horsemen. During 700's when Spain was invaded by Moors, they brought with them their exclusive style of riding and tack. Their saddles were specially intended for battle, with high forks and cantles for security and protection and longer stirrups for accommodating riding with armor. This was considered to be the saddle of the knights and the crusades. The Spaniards modified this sadd... (read more) Author: jessica thomson

8. The Significance of the Celtic Cross July 30, 2008 There are many places in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland where you will see large numbers of Celtic crosses. Many people confuse the Celtic cross with the High Cross and the Irish Memorial Cross, but it is completely different. The image of this cross is that of a conventional Latin cross with a circle connecting the stem and the arms. One usually associates this as a symbol of the Irish missionaries, but since they are found in England, Scotland and Wales as well as Ireland, it is really seen as a symbol of early Christianity. During the Dark Ages all of these locations did hav... (read more) Author: Ling Tong

9. Five Good Reasons You Shouldn't Put Down the Chocolate Bar July 24, 2008 1. Antioxidants: Dark chocolate is high in antioxidants which destroy the free radicals your body digests or is exposed to in the environment. Free radicals come from pollutants in the air, medicines and processed food. It’s no wonder we haven’t been taught more about free radicals as they are the cause of heart disease and different types of cancer. 2. Healthy Heart: Are you getting to the middle ages in life and worried about your blood pressure? Well if you eat dark chocolate on a regular basis you can actually lower your blood pressure. This beats taking blood pressure medication ... (read more) Author: Alexine Laurel

10. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder July 21, 2008 I find it very strange that in this day and age there are still wars going on all over the world. When will the leaders of the world wake up and realise that going to war never ever sorts world issues out? All war does is create pain and suffering especially for those families whose brave sons and daughters put their life on the line for their country. Why the hell haven’t we as a nation evolved enough to realise that war is not the answer and it will never be the answer. We are still living in the dark ages in my opinion and until world leaders leave their greed and ego at home nothing is... (read more) Author: carolyn clayton

11. Anti Wrinkle Eye Cream: Peptides and Honey July 24, 2008 First Notice The eyes are often the first to show the signs of age. And nothing ages a person more than the skin surrounding the eyes: dark circles, puffiness or bags, and those darn wrinkles. Clinical research proves that there are effective ingredients that in fact can diminish dark circles, reduce and minimize bags and wrinkles, giving the eyes a more refreshed and youthful look. The challenge is finding a single product that will effectively address all three conditions. Most of what is available to help “de-age” the eyes only measures a temporary solution. Gels or serums th... (read more) Author: Heather Fields

12. The Business Limitations To Entrepreneurialism June 27, 2008 From a business perspective, entrepreneurialism is vital to commercial success and the health of the economy. We need individuals with bags of entrepreneurialism to drive forward business and to innovate to improve the way we live our lives, and without this entrepreneurialism, business would struggle and new ideas would never get off the ground. Entrepreneurialism is, in a nutshell, the primary driving force behind our lives as we know it, and without it we’d be living in the dark ages. But for all that entrepreneurialism is important, it certainly isn’t the be all and end all, and there a... (read more) Author: Nazeer Daud

13. Marketing Your Printing Business June 23, 2008 The first printing press was unveiled almost 600 years ago. Shortly thereafter, the first commercial printing business was most probably born. Maybe to fill a large order for pamphlets claiming the end to the Dark Ages. That first commercial printing business most also probably puzzled over how to increase business. Just like you are today. Traditionally, purveyors of color printing services have relied upon bulking up the sales force as the only solution to lagging revenues. However, there are many other creative paths that can be taken. Use the Mail to Announce That Sale On... (read more) Author: karen grahams

16. How to Stop Emotional Eating to Lose Weight May 24, 2008 Emotional eating is by far the single largest reason people over eat. Yet, there is very little focus on how to handle emotions. It's like we are still in the dark ages. Just because we all have emotions, we're expected to know how to handle them. And what little training we do receive is more about how to avoid emotions than how to deal with them. We are told that emotions like happiness, joy, excitement are good and that emotions like anger, upset, depression are bad. And then boredom, confusion, uncertainty, malaise aren't even discussed as emotions, but more so as uncomfortable feeli... (read more) Author: Richard Kuhns

17. Information on plague-an infectious disease May 05, 2008 Plague is a term applied to an infectious disease that spreads easily and, without antibiotics treatment, can be fatal. The plague has caused more fear and terror than perhaps any other infectious disease in history. It has killed nearly 200 million people and has produced monumental changes, such as marking the end of the Dark Ages and causing the advancement of clinical research in medicine. Causes of plague: Plague is caused by the gram-negative, nonmotile, nonspomlating bacillus Yersinia pest. It's usually transmitted to humans through the bite of a flea from an infected rodent ...

18. Migraine - Causes, Symptoms and Treatment of Migraine April 09, 2008 A migraine can be disabling — with symptoms so severe, all you can think about is finding a dark, quiet place to lie down. Up to 17 percent of women and 6 percent of men have experienced a migraine. More than 29.5 million Americans suffer from migraine, with women being affected three times more often than men. This vascular headache is most commonly experienced between the ages of 15 and 55, and 70% to 80% of sufferers have a family history of migraine.

19. Explore the wonderful world of mobile broadband! April 03, 2008 It's the new technology that's shaking up the world; it's mobile broadband and it's AWESOME! The evolution of mobile broadband Who remembers the dark days of the internet? Who remembers dialup, waiting for ages to get a connection (at something like 36kbps), only to get disconnect again after you'd been connected for 3 nanoseconds? Oh, how we all breathed a collective sigh of relief when we got broadband access, and didn't have to go and make a toffee (no, not a coffee, a toffee... that'd kill an hour) while web pages loaded. Honestly, I'm not kidding, the day I first got broadband, and wa... (read more) Author: Michael Sharp

21. New Age February 07, 2008 New Age philosophy may be the vehicle to move people from the dark ages to the next step, but it to does not go far enough - it's just another stepping stone that is moving very slowly and is destined to box itself in. There were centuries of life on the planet before religion came along where man fought to get a foothold on dry land and survive the elements. As he became more comfortable with his life out of the ocean, he began to organize his random thoughts into cohesive sentences so that others may understand what he was thinking. Communication between tribe members brought about c... (read more) Author: Roy Klienwachter

22. Fashion Options For Plus Sized Women February 03, 2008 Fashion for plus sized women has come a long way since the dark ages. More companies are meeting the demand for sizes over 12, but are you stifling your own fashion sense by donning black material day after day because you want it to slim you down? Even though there is a lot more plus sized clothing, in all colors, to choose from today, you may find yourself still choosing black, because you feel it's more figure-friendly than brighter colors. Black is usually the top picked color when it comes to women and fashion if they are going for the "skinny" look. Everyone knows that black makes ... (read more) Author: Eric Menzies

23. Choosing Penny Web Hosting January 27, 2008 Many people heard saying “Penny-wise and Dollar-foolish”? Choosing cheapest web hosting is not a good deal. If the user will only consider the money factor then he will have to regret later on as he will not get all the required facilities and the package he has chosen will then prove havoc. If any user launches his website earlier in the “dark ages” of 1997 at that time he was charged $150 per month for hosting and data transfer charges. Then his web host keeps a close eye like an eagle over the number of files he uploads and always sends their heavily built invoices earlier with e... (read more) Author: Web Hosting

25. The 'New Dark Ages' November 19, 2007 The 'New Dark Ages' is a blatant attempt to implicate its followers down the deadly wrong path to un-enlightenment and everlasting perdition. I am quite sure that many adults are completely unaware of all this. Because what I write of is just so 'unbelievable' and/or so totally strange and foreign to most adults, many will think I am exaggerating things to make a more exciting and readable article. Unfortunately, I am not, but I truly wish I were. I call to mind, and would put ‘The New Dark Ages’ into the very same unbelievable and ridiculous category of the last fad our kids were drawn to, ...
