Grieving the loss of a pet

If  you have lost your best friend here is a book worth reading called Good-bye My Friend by Mary and Herb Montgomery.

"Grief is the price we pay for having loved. Through all the tears and the sadness and the paid of grief comes one thought that can make us smile again; we loved a particular animal dearly and that love was returned manyfold."

"when the time is right you may feel that you have love to share with another pet. Not a pet to replace the one you had, but another animal to welcome into your home and into your heart."

How to Make the Switch from iOS to Android

 Andrew Tarantola

You've been hanging back, waiting for the dust to settle around the iPhone 5 debut. Now that the reviews are in, you're out. It's time to trade in the Cupertino Kool-Aid for some Jelly Beans. Here's how to do it right.

Contacts and Calendars

Migrating your contacts and calendar dates from iPhone to Android is as simple as setting up Google Sync. As long as you're running iOS 3.0 or above, and already have an active Google or Gmail account, you can do it directly through your phone:

• On your iPhone select Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
• Set up a new "Microsoft Exchange" account (yes, even if you're trying to import from Gmail).
• Input your email address and login info. Enter a domain if you have one for an actual ME server; Gmail users can leave it blank.
• Select "Server" then either input the ME server address or "m.google.com" for Gmail.
• On the final screen, select what you want to import—Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and/or Reminders—then hit Accept.

FORMULATION

Nuun branded products’ formulation is based on years of research and feedback from some of the world’s top academic and practicing experts in the field of sports medicine—specifically in dehydration and hyponatremia. Nuun's development is focused on the three most important aspects of proper hydration:

SPEED OF ABSORPTION

One of the most important characteristics of what you drink while you're active is the speed at which your body can absorb it. The concentration of dissolved salts and sugars (osmolarity, for those more technically inclined) determines how fast the drink can cross from your digestive track into your bloodstream, where it can re-hydrate and replenish you. Nuun branded products produce a hypotonic solution, so your body absorbs Nuun faster than the leading “sports drinks” or even water alone. This gives your body the ability to restore optimal water and electrolyte balance quickly and efficiently.

ELECTROLYTE CONTENT

The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that people who are active for more than one hour get 500–700mg of sodium for every liter of water they consume. This is up to three times the sodium amount that traditional “sports drinks” provide. Some experts in the field believe that sodium concentrations should be closer to the 700–1000mg range. In addition to other critical electrolytes, Nuun Active Hydration provides 700mg of sodium for every liter of drink to ensure that you are adequately replenishing your body to help you perform at your best and stay healthy. U Natural Hydration is an all-natural line of electrolyte and vitamin-enhanced drink tablets with half the sodium as Nuun Active Hydration. U Natural Hydration is sweetened with stevia and contains only 7 calories per tab. It is ideal for less intense activities, a perfect way to stay balanced and quenched.

CARBOHYDRATE CONTENT

Nuun branded products contain virtually no carbohydrates (less than 1g) for a couple of reasons. Ingesting drinks containing high levels of carbohydrates can slow the rate at which your stomach empties, delaying the absorbance of the water and electrolytes. Carbs also increase the osmolality of what you're drinking, delaying absorption beyond the stomach.
If you're participating in intense exercises lasting more than 60 to 90 minutes, you should consume carbohydrates to ensure energy levels for working muscles. But how you do that is up to you. Everyone manages energy consumption differently, whether it’s with sports bars, gel or other sources of calories and carbohydrates.
