6 THINGS THAT INFLUENCE YOUR DREAMS

When we’re sleeping, our bodies do everything they can to stay asleep. So rather than waking us up, outside stimuli  smells, sounds, sensations often become woven into our dream narratives.  Which means that there are a lot of influences that can shape how your dreams play out. Just keep in mind that your natural dreams, i.e. those that aren’t at the mercy of what’s happening around you in the real world, help you process your thoughts and feelings about your day. Lauri Loewenberg, a certified dream analyst explains this; 

1. SOUND
   If you’ve ever incorporated the sound of your alarm clock into your dream -- maybe it became a fire alarm or a whistle -- you know that real-life sounds can find their way into your dreams’ storylines. Loewenberg attests that

BARACK OBAMA  SAYS HE HASN'T SMOKED IN YEARS

 

President Barack Obama says he hasn't had a smoke in years – thanks in no small part to first lady Michelle Obama. Obama was chatting privately with a U.N. official Monday and said he hoped the official had quit smoking. The exchange was caught on camera and aired on CNN. After the official appeared to ask Obama about his own cigarette use, Obama said he hadn't had a cigarette in probably six years.
He added, with a broad grin, "That's because I'm scared of my wife."
Obama has acknowledged over the years struggling with tobacco use. Mrs. Obama said in 2011 that her husband had finally kicked the habit. Good job Mrs Obama.

INDIAN DESCENT WINS MISS AMERICA, RACIST TWEETS FLOW

Nina Davuluri              Nina Davuluri, representing New York, is crowned 2014 Miss America by 2013 Miss America Mallory Hagan. 

No sooner had the tiara been placed atop her head than a barrage of racist tweets flooded the Internet.
"If you're #Miss America you should have to be American," said one.
"WHEN WILL A WHITE WOMAN WIN #MISSAMERICA? Ever??!!" screamed another.
Nina Davuluri is American. She just happens to be of Indian descent. In fact, she's the first Indian-American to be crowned Miss America.
But the tweets that followed the 2014 pageant in Atlantic City on Sunday night didn't focus on how it's the second consecutive year that a Miss New York has taken the crown, or about the judge's questions (including ones about Miley Cyrus and Syria). They were about Davuluri's heritage.
"Well they just picked a Muslim for Miss America. That must've made Obama happy. Maybe he had a vote," vented one person.
Not that it bears pointing out, but Davuluri's not a Muslim -- and the president didn't have a vote. The 24-year-old Davuluri, who's from Syracuse, competed on a platform of "Celebrating Diversity through Cultural Competency." For the talent portion, she performed a classical Indian dance fused with Bollywood moves.

  

      




 BABY ELEPHANT CRIES FOR HOURS AFTER BEING ATTACKED AND REJECTED BY ITS MOTHER

baby elephant  Awwhh, how sad. A baby elephant cried for five hours after his own mother attacked and abandoned him at a zoo in China. Shortly after the mother elephant gave birth to the calf in August at the Shendiaoshan Wild Animal Nature Reserve in Rongcheng, China, she stepped on him, according to Metro U.K. Veterinarians hoped it was an accident and treated the baby before returning him to the mother, but he was attacked again. So they removed him from her. 
 ''The calf was very upset and cried for five hours before he could be consoled," an employee said. "He couldn’t bear to be parted from his mother and it was his mother who was trying to kill him."
 The University of California, Santa Barbara has delved into the question of whether elephants really cry, stating that it depends on which definition of "crying" is being used.
If "crying" is defined as shedding tears, then it is a "yes" since nearly all land mammals produce tears for eye lubrication. If "crying" is defined as shedding tears in response to an emotion, then the answer is a little less clear. It all depends on whether or not elephants actually experience emotions. And there is evidence they do, They are known to show a wide array of emotions, from joy and rage to grief and compassion.
Elephants show joy when playing and greeting others by trumpeting and flapping their ears. When a baby is born, females can sometimes be heard bellowing and blaring, according to PBS. Elephants are widely known for expressing grief after the loss of a loved one, similar to humans. They mourn the dead by touching the bones or circling the body. Some researchers have suggested they may even relive memories and equate such an interest in the dead with evidence they have a concept of death itself.

MILEY CYRUS UNFOLLOWS FIANCE LIAM HEMSWORTH ON TWITTER

Miley Cyrus, Liam Hemsworth   Talk about a wrecking ball. Miley Cyrus has stopped following her fiancé Liam Hemsworth on Twitter. The move comes after Liam was linked to January Jones. And although Liam's rep denied the rumors, it hasn't stopped tongues from wagging.
And while Miley and Liam have remained quiet about their relationship, her Twitter move just adds to the speculation that the couple of four years may finally be headed for a breakup. Not to mention the duo's been more distant than ever as evidenced by Hemsworth's Los Angeles premiere of Paranoia last month, where the two were last spotted together. The couple have put even more distance between them lately with Miley promoting her upcoming album Bangerz in Europe while Liam's is apparently living it up in Las Vegas, as his latest tweet reveals.

10 FOODS THAT DAMAGE YOUR TEETH

Most people know candy and other sugary foods wreak havoc on their teeth, but how about fruit? You’ve probably heard brushing and flossing twice a day is the best way to keep your teeth healthy. But some foods cause enough damage to warrant extra cleanings.

 10 Foods That Damage Your Teeth

 1. Apples - Apples are high in acid, are surprisingly hard on your enamel. While a daily apple may keep the doctor away, the acid might keep your dentist on speed dial. Eating apples is fine, just be sure to rinse your mouth with water or mouthwash shortly after.

2. Hard candies - Though you probably know the sugar in candy is a problem, hard candies are especially harmful because we tend to hold them in our mouths longer. Also be aware that cough drops are often made with sugar, so opt for the sugar-free brand if available.

3. Pickled vegetables - Pickles are made with vinegar, which is acidic, and often sugar as well. While the vegetables are healthy, the brine is can damage your teeth. Drinking water with your meal helps wash away acids and sugar, but remember to brush an hour later.

4. Bread - Many breads contain sugar—especially processed white breads. It’s best to check the labels for any added sweeteners that will breed mouth bacteria. Bread is also sticky and gets between and behind your teeth.

5. Popcorn - Popcorn is notorious for getting stuck in your teeth, and the areas between your teeth will cultivate more bacteria for that reason. It’s okay to treat yourself to a bag of popcorn as long as you rinse with water and remember to floss and brush after.

6. Peanut butter - Sticky and often made with sugar, peanut butter not only feeds bacteria but makes it easier for them to adhere to teeth. Look for natural peanut butters with no added sugars to lessen the problem.

7. Jelly - Along with peanut butter, jelly or jam is loaded with sugar and quite sticky. Even the all-fruit brands contain natural sugars and encourage plaque and bacteria if not washed away soon.

8. Meat - Meat tends to get stuck between your teeth, and some meat products contain sugar as a preservative. While the amount may not be very high, any food that sits between your teeth can promote tooth decay. Try chewing sugar-less gum after eating if you can’t brush right away.

9. Diet soda - Just because it doesn’t have sugar doesn’t mean your teeth are safe. The acidity of diet sodas is still extremely high, making it one of the worst products for your teeth.

10. Salad dressing - More of a condiment than a food, salad dressings use vinegar and sugar for flavor. Salads should be a staple in anyone’s diet, but be careful of the dressings that can harm your smile.

WHAT KIND OF WOMAN ARE YOU ACCORDING TO THE TONE OF YOUR LIPSTICK

Choosing the color of lipstick that will really complement you is a challenge for every woman. Selecting the right color is hard enough when you have to consider combining it with your make up and complexion. This task is not made easier by the knowledge that the tone of your lipstick can also be used to define the type of woman you are. On the other hand, knowing what your lipstick says about your personality can be valuable information that you can use to your advantage in sending out subtle messages.
Peach tones
Lipstick in these tones reveals an up-beat, lively and passionate woman; a vibrant, active person who enjoys life to the fullest. The golden fiery tones of this lipstick color speak of a free spirit with a positive outlook on life and a generally happy disposition. 
  Rose tones
Lipstick in pink tones is very energizing and quite an effective attention-getter. This gentle and feminine color denotes a gentle and feminine nature, but with a passionate twist. The woman wearing rose lipstick is like deep waters – once you fall for her, there is no coming out of it.
Wine color
This is the color of a true lady. It is usually the choice of exquisite, classy women with overwhelming charm and charisma. Usually ambitious, these women know what they want and how to get it and the wine-colored lipstick is their faithful ally.
  Dark cherry tones
This is probably the most seductive shade of lipstick you can imagine. The woman wearing it is an expert temptress, a passionate coquette, who has mastered the arts of flirting and seduction. Confident and with a high self-esteem, this woman is the true femme fatale.

   
so ladies, what woman are you and men, what kind of woman do you prefer?
