How to overcome hangover

You're lying in bed, and the little man in your head is pounding away with a jackhammer; your stomach feels like you just rode a roller coaster 15 consecutive times; and you feel like you haven't slept in weeks. While lying there, staring at the ceiling that has finally stopped spinning, the only question that comes to your mind is: "Did I really have to have that last drink?" Well, you did have that final drink -- the one that put you over the top - and now you're paying for it. Not to worry though, there are ways to relieve the headache, nausea and fatigue experienced after having one drink too many. Before going to bed after drinking ad nauseam, there are ways for you to prevent the symptoms of a hangover, besides not drinking in the first place.

Water before bed will also help wash out your system from the alcohol. Drinking water between drinks is also a great way to prevent the ailing morning-after effects.

crunch and munch>> To help avoid a hangover, try to eat or snack before or while drinking.

Now if these suggestions didn't work or if you didn't follow these tips, here's how to handle the morning-after hangover:

water>> The symptoms you're feeling post-drinking are signs of dehydration caused by the alcohol. That's why you must rehydrate yourself by drinking a lot of water when you get up. Rehydrating your body is the key to recovering from the hangover, and this cannot be stressed enough. You can even put some lemon in your water, it'll help soothe your stomach and will add vitamin C. When drinking water, avoid water that is extremely cold or hot; drink water at room temperature.

coffee>> Even though you're extremely tired and a cup of coffee seems like the best way to wake you up, try to stay away from it. Caffeine will only dehydrate you more, and since it's also a diuretic, it will not help your stomach. Milk and other dairy products are also not a good idea; they may make you feel more queasy.

ginger ale>> If you don't want to drink water, try a glass of flat ginger ale, which helps soothe your stomach.

juice>> Juice is also a good idea; vitamin C will help give you the energy you'll need.

obey your thirst>> Sports drinks such as Gatorade have been known to work for some people.

feels like honey>> Have some tablespoons of plain honey, or add some honey to your water or cup of tea. It'll help soothe the dryness in your throat.

make a toast>> After drinking to just about every toast that could be made the night before, some slices of plain toast could be a good idea - avoid putting jam or butter on them.

fruity fixes>> Eating some fruit is also a good idea. It'll be refreshing and give you the vitamins and energy you'll need to replenish your body.

pills>> Have an over-the-counter painkiller such as aspirin or ibuprofen, to help ease the headache. Do Not have acetaminophen-based pills; these can be dangerous when mixed with the alcohol in your system. Take the pills in the morning, not before going to bed when the alcohol is still prominent in your system.

sleep>> Either sleep in, or wake up and take any of the above-mentioned measures and go back to bed. This is assuming, of course, that you have the luxury of sleeping in for that particular day.

wash cloth>> Another effective way to alleviate the pain is to lie in a dark room, with a cool compress on your head.

Remember that these are all ways to alleviate the symptoms usually associated with a hangover. If there seems to be a more serious problem as a result of alcohol consumption, go to a doctor. These are things that have been known to help treat that dreaded feeling that comes after a night of drinking and partying. You may discover your own method to help you overcome a hangover. Enjoy the night, know your limits, and if you have one drink too many, you may want to try these quick remedies so that you don't end up staring at ceramic all day long.

Make the most money with niche markets

Affiliate marketing and working with niche markets is the way to go today if you are young and eager to make a lot of money. I’m not saying that affiliate marketers never have to work a single day in their lives and just rake in the cash while sitting out by the pool, but there are tremendous perks to this job. Do you hate going to work every day? Commuting, whether by car or mass transit, is an absolute bore. The hours you spend every week commuting are lost hours that you will never get back before you die. So why not choose something better?

The best thing about affiliate marketing is the freedom to work in a relaxing environment. The “office” could be your home desk, the kitchen table or, why not?, a table by the pool. Every day is “casual Friday” and all your tools are concentrated in the computer. No paperwork to shift around from one desk to another. And the earnings are on par with the setting. The more effort you’re willing to put in building a maintaining a nice website, the more money will come in every day. If this isn’t a good deal, then I don’t know what a good deal could be.

Some people think that affiliate marketing is too much work and that splashing some AdSense ads on a page is far easier. It might be so, but how much money can you get out of AdSense? Two or three dollars a day? Come on, that’s not money but loose change. Affiliate marketing may be a bit harder than AdSense, but this is where people actually spend money. If you play with the big boys, you could make as much as $175 out of every sale. That’s the equivalent of 58.3 days of AdSense at $3 per day you can make in one day.

What many people don’t realize is that the global economy is going through a huge spending period. Across the world people are willing to pay good money for all kinds of products and the Internet has made it easier than ever to spend money. eCommerce has made it possible for people to buy things they had never had access to before. Orders pour in and products and services move across countries because people can search the Internet for answers to their problems and are willing to pay for solutions, regardless or where they come from.

It’s like a river of money moving across the planet and you can become one of those who help connect the buyers with vendors and cash in commission while never leaving their armchairs. The gap between offer and demand is huge nowadays because there are far more people with money out there than there are people who sell things. The key is to find products that are underrepresented, highly demanded and pay high. Until now affiliate information packages do not address this. Many of the marketing programs out there are about re-selling the program you have just purchased.

But things are about to change for you because help is on the way. MakingYouRicher is a comprehensive guide on niche marketing that teaches you how to make thousands a month by learning where to find the highest paying products that are searched for by millions.

Hooliganism: The Untold Story

Hooliganism is unruly and destructive behavior.
Such behavior is commonly associated with sports fans, particularly supporters of professional football and university sports. In some countries, the hooligan elements of a group of supporters are known as Category C. The term can also apply to general rowdy behaviour and vandalism, often under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The term has been used since at least the 1890s, to describe the behavior of street gangs.

The real reason google bought YouTube

Now that YouTube has money behind it, Google can expect legal action from a whole bunch of people... some of it justified.

That was truly insightful, at least for me.

Google's core business model revolves around "fair use" and similar provisions of copyright law. I think they are most vulnerable in this area-- look at Belgium. So Google needed to buy YouTube for a couple of reasons related to this.

The first is because YouTube's business model also revolves around many of the same "fair use" provisions, and if YouTube loses its upcoming court cases, the fallout could fatally poison Google's business model. It would be very hard for Google to immunize itself from any judgments against YouTube that changed the interpretation of copyright law. Purchasing YouTube allows Google to directly counter such an attack with all its resources. It also decreases the likelihood of such an attack, since all the ambulance chasers who were smacking their lips in anticipation of an easy meal from YouTube's carcass are now slinking away, looking for easier prey that won't be able to fend them off for years with delaying tactics.

The other reason that occurs to me is that the most important part of strategizing any conflict is choosing your battlefield carefully. Google is under constant threat of serious litigation over copyright concerns. Google has just bought a battlefield where these litigations can be played out, that is comfortably distant from the fields of green where Googles' cash cows graze.


I expect that Google is developing the muscles it needs to directly influence copyright legislation, and I expect it is also going to be increasingly influential in copyright litigation as well (intervening with friend of the court briefs, etc). This all seems to be part of Google's mission statement: [google.com] "Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful."

How to Draw a Rabbid

Rabbids (often simply called "bunnies") are a fictional species of maniac anthropomorphic bunnies, who serve as the primary antagonists in the video game Rayman Raving Rabbids. They are rather limited intellectually, but very aggressive. The Game Boy Advance version of the game says that the Rabbids used to be cute, friendly creatures, but they trusted nearly everybody, which made them the target of many jokes. After taking this for a long time, they went mad and are now trying to get their revenge on everybody who tricked them.

Radiohead

Radiohead is an English rock band from Oxfordshire, initially formed in 1985 under the name On a Friday. Radiohead's lineup has remained the same since their inception, with Thom Yorke (vocals/rhythm guitar/piano/electronics), Jonny Greenwood (lead guitar/ondes martenot/keyboards), Ed O'Brien (guitar/backing vocals), Colin Greenwood (bass/synthesizers) and Phil Selway (drums/percussion).

Among the band's earliest influences were post-punk acts such as Joy Division and Magazine, and 1980s alternative rock bands such as R.E.M., Pixies, and Sonic Youth. Radiohead released their first single, "Creep" in 1992, followed by their debut album Pablo Honey (1993). The song was an unexpected worldwide hit, and the band were widely branded as a one-hit wonder. However, Radiohead met with success at home in the United Kingdom with their second album, The Bends (1995), earning fans with dense guitar atmospheres and frontman Thom Yorke's falsetto singing. Radiohead's third album propelled them to greater attention; popular for an expansive sound and themes of modern alienation, OK Computer (1997) was named a landmark record of the 1990s by many critics.

With their polarising albums Kid A (2000) and Amnesiac (2001), Radiohead reached their peak global popularity even as their musical style changed, drawing on diverse experimental, electronic, jazz and modern classical artists ranging from Can and Autechre[11] to Charles Mingus and Olivier Messiaen. Their latest album, Hail to the Thief (2003), mixed guitar-driven rock, electronic influences and topical lyrics, and was seen to blend styles from throughout the band's career. Radiohead are currently without a label, and are working on their seventh studio album, expected for release sometime in 2007.
