The Ice Cream Diet

New research suggests that the nutritional makeup of ice cream when eaten as part of a balanced diet may help burn fat faster than if you had not eaten the fat and calorie rich indulgence. A serving a day may help in other ways such as keeping bones strong, burning fat more efficiently, lowering high blood pressure, decreasing cravings, easing PMS symptoms, fighting colon cancer, lessening the risk of stroke, boosting immunity, preventing kidney stones. The key to the Ice Cream Diet is moderation. Too much of a good thing is not a good thing.

The Ice Cream Diet Plan:

You must stay within within your calorie budget. As long as you do, you are free to eat that ice cream. Women get 1 cup and men get 1 1/2 cups of ice cream every day. You'll still lose weight because the ice cream is factored in to a nutritious diet of 1,500 calories a day for women and 2,000 calories for men. To keep calories in check, you should choose a reduced-calorie ice cream.

The best way to make sure your ice cream is good for you is to make it yourself. So grab a ball and get rolling!

Ebay Neighborhoods

Recently ebay added something called "Neighborhoods". It's kind of like the "groups" feature and the "blogs" featured mixed together. People with like interests can join Neighborhoods and post topics for the other members.

You can suggest to ebay new Neighborhoods. I recently suggested "One of a Kind". Be on the lookout for it! I'll be joining it as soon as it's created.

Survival in a Bottle & Student in a Bottle Kits

Lifeline makes some great "in a bottle" kits. We've picked up two types we think you'll enjoy. They come in various colors: red, blue, purple, green, or pink.

Each kit contains several items. Check out my ebay store or www.valzone.com for more details.

Hands Free Umbrella Holder

Let's face it -- you only have two hands. Now you can use an umbrella and still have both hands free!

It's a patented nylon bag designed to hold an umbrella, while giving you a "hands free" ability for all your needs. The Brella Bag can be worn when carrying your baby, groceries, pushing a walker or while in a wheelchair or scooter. It is also very useful at sporting events to stay dry or shade you from the sun. There are many advantages to using the Brella Bag to hold your umbrella for you so that your hands are free.



You can find the Brella Bag in my ebay store or on www.valzone.com.

What are you wearing for Halloween?

Halloween and duct tape-it's a marriage made in nutty heaven. Presenting the loopiest duct tape book of them all: a guide to using the universal adhesive for disguise, decoration, tricks, and treats on the holiday where everyone's encouraged to act a little crazy.

The Original Duct Tape Halloween Book is a four-color, fully illustrated holiday sourcebook offering more than 101 clever costume ideas, plus dozens of other creative and mischievous uses for duct tape. There are costumes that are quick and easy-Shaving Accident Guy: apply a short strip of red duct tape to your face, and attach a disposable razor to one end. Off-the-wall-Floor of a Movie Theater: Make yourself a sticky-side-out duct tape vest, and cover with popcorn kernels,candy wrappers, and crushed paper cups. Batty-Chia Pet: cover yourself in duct tape (sticky side out) and roll around on freshly mown grass. Ambitious-Marilyn Monroe: Use a tight wrapping of white duct tape over your upper torso and a wire-rigged fly-away dress on your lower half. And congenial-Siamese Twins: Duct tape yourself to your best friend or spouse. Plus how to make giant bats and spiders to scare the kids; holiday pranks (duct tape down the trigger of an air horn and toss it on someone's roof); even a dieting tip: wrap candy in duct tape before eating-all the calories are trapped inside! Halloween will never be the same.

Biography

Jim Berg, with Tim Nyberg, started the duct tape craze in 1994 with the publication of their bestselling The Duct Tape Book. They are relentless proselytizers for duct tape and host the hugely popular, mega-award-winning ducttapeguys.com Web site.

So cute & realistic!
