Miami Heat's winning


http://visual-eyes.ca/en/
The Miami Heat's extraordinary winning steak is capturing the attention of basketball fans across the country, and the team's merchandise is flying off shelves.

The sales of Miami Heats Items are up to 30% year-to-date compared to 2012, according to SportsOneSource, a research service that tracks sales of licensed sports merchandise. Sales of heat items on the NBA's online store , which are not tracked by SportsOneSource, are up 40% since the starts of the steak, according to league spokeswoman Amanda Thorn.

Miami Heat won its 24th straight game last Wednesday, coming back from a 27-point deficit in the secong half to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers. If the team keeps winning through its April 9 game, it would break the league record of 33 straight wins, which was set by the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1971-72 season.

The Heat's sales spike has come even as overall sales of NBA merchandise have fallen by 25% to $675 million so far this year.

Seven simple rules to avoid obesity


http://visual-eyes.ca/en/
In today' world it's really hard to keep your weight under control. So I will give some tips to avoid obesity. These seven rules are simple enough that most can follow them.

By dieting , you're setting yourself up to gain more weight than ever.

Fat doesn't make you fat, you need fat in your diet to help you process certain nutrients.

Eating more slowly and savoring your meal boost levels of two hormones that make you feel fuller.

Planning your responses to hunger helps you shed pounds faster.

Those who eat moderately high levels of protein( including organic animal protein) are twice as likely to lose weight and keep it off as those who don't eat much protein.

Fit people stay fit by having fun.

Nearly 30 percent of people who watch more that four hours of TV a day have a BMI of 30 or higher.

Whole Internet probed for insecure devices


http://visual-eyes.ca/en/
A surreptitious scan of the entire internet has revealed millions of printers, webcams and set-top boxes protected only by default passwords.An anonymous researcher used more than 420,000 of these insecure devices to test the security and responsiveness of other gadgets, in a nine-month survey.Using custom-written code, they sent out more than four trillion messages.

The net's current addressing scheme accommodates about 4.2 billion devices. Only 1.3 billion addresses responded.The number of addresses responding was a surprise as the pool of addresses for that scheme has run dry. As a result, the net is currently going through a transition to a new scheme that has a vastly larger pool of addresses available.
The scan found half a million printers, more than one million webcams and lots of other devices, including set-top boxes and modems, that still used the password installed in the factory, letting almost anyone take over that piece of hardware. Often the password was an easy to guess word such as "root" or "admin".
"Whenever you think, 'That shouldn't be on the internet, but will probably be found a few times,' it's there a few hundred thousand times," wrote the un-named researcher in a paper documenting their work.HDMoore, who carried out a similar survey in 2012, told the Ars Technica news website the results looked "pretty accurate".
He added he had seen malicious hackers exploiting the security failings of these devices to run criminal networks known as botnets that are used to send out spam, mount phishing attacks and bombard websites with deluges of data.

French Macaroon


http://visual-eyes.ca/en/



Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.

Beat egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment until whites are foamy; beat in white sugar and continue beating until egg whites are glossy, fluffy, and hold soft peaks. Sift confectioners' sugar and ground almonds in a separate bowl and quickly fold the almond mixture into the egg whites, about 30strokes.

Spoon a small amount of batter into a plastic bag with a small corner cut off and pipe a test disk of batter, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter, onto prepared baking sheet. If the disk of batter holds a peak instead of flattening immediately, gently fold the batter a few more times and retest.

When batter is mixed enough to flatten immediately into an even disk, spoon into a pastry bag fitted with a plain round tip. Pipe the batter onto the baking sheet in rounds, leaving space between the disks. Let the piped cookies stand out at room temperature until they form a hard skin on top, about 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 285 degrees F (140 degrees C).

Bake cookies until set but not browned, about 10 minutes; let cookies cool completely before filling.

Eye Relaxation Technique



Eyestrain is a common complaint these days. No wonder , many of us look at the computer all day long. But it's not only computers that cause eyestrain. Any repetitive prolonged use of eyes, such as readingdriving and doing crafts may lead to eyestrain.
Your eyes get tired from the intense work that they do for you. Many of us asking what can you do to relax your eyes.
In the early part of this century, an opthalmologistWilliam Bates, developed a system of relaxing the eyes and improving vision.
In order to relax your eyes. Bates had his patients visualized anything they loved – peaceful scenes from nature , clouds drifting across the sky or winning card hands.
To achieve deeper eye relaxation. Bates devised a technique that involved swinging an imagined black dot.
This technique is called “Shutting the O” and has been found to relieve pain , increase blood flow circulation to the eye and clearing the eye of debris.
    visual-eyes.ca
  1. Close your eyes and visualize a big black round O.
  2. On the left side of the curve , put a black dot, on the right curve put another black dot.
  3. Point your nose from one dot to another , from side to side until the “O” seems to shuttle out of the way as you go from the dot to another.
Naturalvision is a right brain activity and is based on relaxation. So many people experience vision problems in our society as a result of too much stress and tension. Our vision problems reflect our imbalanced living. We are predominantly a left brain society with a little regard for right brain activity.
