19 Jan 10 What Is The Best Source For Omega 3 Fatty Acids? – Little Known Secrets Revealed By An Expert
The right intake of Omega 3’s in your daily health regimen can work wonders for your health. What is the best source for Omega 3 fatty acids? How are fish and Omega 3 fatty acids connected? Find out the expert answers to these important questions in this article.
Undoubtedly, the best source for Omega 3 fatty acids is fish. But, not all fish species are equally high in omega 3’s; some have a higher content as compared to others.
So, how are fish and Omega 3 fatty acids connected? What makes it the best source for Omega 3 fatty acids as compared to other sources such as flaxseed oil?
The answers lay in the type of omega 3 fatty acids that are contained in flaxseed oil. Flax seed oil is rich in a type of omega 3 called ALA, while fish oil contains omega 3 fatty acids in the form of DHA and EPA.
Now, our body has to convert ALA into EPA and DHA to meet its Omega 3 requirements. This conversion does not take place efficiently and smoothly in all cases; for example, in persons with sub par health such as elderly and convalescents.
This means that in case you rely only on plant-based sources of Omega 3 such as flaxseed oil, you might not get adequate amounts of DHA and EPA if your body does not convert high amounts of ALA into DHA and EPA Omega 3s.
The DHA and EPA omega 3 fatty acids play a vital role in the development and functioning of the brain, as well as our cardiovascular health. Around 60% of our brain mass is made up of fats and approximately half of this is in the form of DHA fats! This goes to show how important omega 3 fatty acids are for our overall health.
Fish as the Best source for Omega 3 fatty acids
Let us look at the role of fish and Omega 3 fatty acids in the current environment. A lot of things have changed in the past few years. Although fish is one of the best source for Omega 3 fatty acids, they also contain high levels of toxins and contaminants such as mercury, lead, PCBs, etc. which are the result of excessive industrial pollution.
Therefore, consuming large quantities of fish to meet the Omega 3 requirements is no longer a safe alternative. It poses greater risk on our health as compared to the health benefits that it offers. This is the prime reason why a majority of the people are now opting for pure fish oil supplements as an effective and the best source for Omega 3 fatty acids.
But, make sure that you use only molecularly distilled supplements. It is a process which removes toxins and contaminants from the fish oil. What remains is pure fish oil that is rich in omega 3 fatty acids and which is encapsulated into soft gels. This is one of the best ways to reap the benefits of Omega 3s without the risk of contaminants. It offers the best of both worlds — nature and science.
Hoki is a fish species found in the cleanest waters of New Zealand. It is naturally high in DHA and EPA omega 3 fatty acids. It is used in the best fish oil supplements due to its high content of Omega 3s and due to its purity from toxins and contaminants.

10 Jan 10 Indiana Jones Returns – Too Little, Too Late?
For those who came of age in the 1980s during a time of sleek consumerism and homogenous globalization, Indiana Jones was something of an idol. Harking back to a time when the jungles of South America and the Pyramids of Egypt were truly a world away, the Indiana Jones trilogy excited in us a feeling of adventure that has been rarely seen before or since.
The popularity of the Indiana Jones movies stems not just from the fact that they were directed and acted by some of the greatest Hollywood talent of the day, but also from the fact that the movies were classic adventures. They were swashbuckling epics that found an ideal mix of adventure, intrigue and mystery, steeped in myth and mysticism.
This formula was clearly successful. The first Indiana Jones movie, Raiders of the Lost Ark, was the highest grossing movie of 1981 and was nominated for eight Academy Awards (of which it won four). The following two instalments, Temple of Doom and The Last Crusade, fared almost as well, each winning an Academy Award and grossing hundreds of millions of dollars.
Since 1989, though, all has been quiet on the Indy front. Despite regular calls for a fourth movie there were no developments for years. Rumor and hearsay surrounded plans for the fourth Indiana Jones movie since 1995, when Last Crusade writer Jeffrey Boam was asked to write a script.
Since then, several screenwriters and directors have attempted to take on the project—including Chris Columbus (Home Alone), M Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense) and Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption)—without success.
Finally, though, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Harrison Ford have accepted a script written by David Koepp (Spiderman, War of the Worlds). As of July 2006 Spielberg and Koepp were fine-tuning the screenplay in advance of pre-production, expected to begin in early 2007.
The question that will be repeatedly posed by fans of the series over the next couple of years is this: will it be possible to recreate the magic of the original trilogy? Hollywood has moved on since the 1980s, and audiences have come to demand big budget CGI and dazzling visual effects. Despite winning the Academy Award for Visual Effects with Temple of Doom, the appeal of the Indiana Jones movies was never in their special effects. In fact, Temple of Doom—admitted by Lucas and Spielberg as the most visual effects-heavy of the trilogy—saw the most disappointing box office performance of the three.
The main concern, though, is Harrison Ford’s age. Already in his 40s in Raiders of the Lost Ark, Ford will be at least 65 when filming begins on the fourth movie. Even with the use of makeup, camera trickery and stuntmen, how can it be possible to remain faithful to the original trilogy when the star is old enough to draw a pension?
Despite these worries, however, one thing is certain. Come the release date a couple of years from now we’ll see a sudden surge in the sales of fedoras and bullwhips. He may be old enough to qualify for a buss pass, but there’s something about Indiana Jones that brings out the child in us all.

09 Jan 10 Get More Business Results by Having a Little Fun!
Do you think it’s appropriate or professional to have fun in the workplace?
Research has shown that fun at work generally results in an increase of productivity, creativity, loyalty, and morale. Appropriate workplace fun is a key method for energizing workers and putting some life back into their routines.
Here are some additional benefits of having fun at work:
1. Fun fulfills the basic human need to be social
2. Fun can instill a sense of teamwork
3. Fun usually improves communication
4. Fun breaks up boredom that comes from doing repetitive work
5. Fun can dissolve conflict and tension
6. Fun can foster a positive company culture
7. Fun creates an opportunity for networking
The best type of workplace fun creates congratulations and “high fives” among coworkers. It might be a non-competitive ice breaker event scheduled in the office before a company meeting. Or it could be a sporting event that takes place after work with departmental teams that compete at the bowling alley or on the ball field. Lots of different activities can teach employees how working as a team can be fun as well as productive.
Social interaction among coworkers allows for an opportunity to improve one’s “Soft Skills”, or people skills. Soft skills are the compliment to Hard skills, which are the technical requirements of a job.
When having fun, we get to see our coworkers and managers in a more casual light. This glimpse into their non-business personality may make them seem more human and foster an improved, genuine relationship.
Matt Weinstein, author of the book, Managing to Have Fun, says that many bosses and entrepreneurs find it difficult to have fun at work. He feels they need to learn how to build more fun into the workday and to celebrate successes. If that doesn’t happen, Weinstein warns that bosses can drive away the top employees who are responsible for those company successes.
But management can’t just mandate that everyone else celebrate and enjoy themselves. The boss must participate, especially in smaller companies. Top management always sets the tone for the entire company, so if their fun isn’t genuine or sincere it’ll be obvious to everyone else.
Let’s be clear that the following behavior should not be considered fun:
