You can not lose weight with liposuction. It is not as easy as diet or exercise. Liposuction is a serious operation. If you accept the operation, generally not all the fat is removed, removing too much is risky. You can have more than one operation if it is required.

The main aim of liposuction operation is taking fat cells rather than fat itself.  The fat cell of a human does not change after adolescence. While gaining weight, the fat accumulates where these cells are. For instance, if you have fatty belly, and have liposuction operation, if you gain weight again, the fat does not appear here. The cells were taken and there is no place for fat production any more.

For Whom Liposuction is Suitable
Liposuction is applied for the problematic parts of body. These parts are problematic because diet or exercises do not solve the problem.  People who are overweight do not lose weight with liposuction. It is a fact. Some amount of fat can be removed. However, losing weight is something different.

Liposuction affects the skin. After operation, skin repairs itself. If it was in bad condition before surgery, it can look worse after liposuction. Briefly, liposuction is suitable for people whose skin is tense. The best results are taken if the operation takes place early. After having damaged skin, having fatty areas, liposuction has nothing to do.

Where Liposuction is Applied
From every part of body, fat can be removed. However some parts are more suitable for the operation. For women, belly, waist, thighs, inner sides of knees, foot wrists, and back; for men, waist, belly, and jowl are suitable.

Possible Problems of Liposuction
The major problems that can occur during operation are bleeding and infection. Bleeding is not expected to be much, but there is possibility. If there is infection problem, fever, swollen points are the signs. Skin loss is another risk of liposuction. This problem generally occurs when liposuction is applied more than twice to the same area.

The medicine used in the operation is important. Surgeon should be careful about the amount of medicine. The liquid medicine consists of local anesthetics. Excessive usage can cause neurological problems.

Aesthetic is one of the major problems. On the surface of skin, there can be asymmetric lines. If these are very serious, a cosmetic surgery is necessary. If the surface is not equal, the process is harder. Patient may want another operation for equality. This means taking fat and giving fat to some parts. After operation, you can not feel anything on the operated parts. This is normal until a certain time. However, it can take long time. Even after 9 months, not feeling is not extraordinary. Permanent feeling loss is very rare.

Effect of Sun Rays on the Skin
Some amount of the sun rays reaching to your skin is reflected, but some of it is absorbed and conserved by the skin. These absorbed and conserved lights cause spots on the skin, freckling, skin cancer, wrinkles, getting old before time, burning and pain. These are just major effects of sun rays, they change according to your skin types, your exposure time etc.

Suggestions for Sunbathing
Never ever sunbath between the hours 11:00 and 16:00, this is the time that sun rays come directly, it is much more harmful than other times. If you want to know which time is suitable for sun tanning, watch your shadow, when your shadow and your height are equal, it is the time; the sun rays are not so harmful.

Wear hat, sunglasses, and use suntan cream. There are many types of suntan creams, choose a suitable one for your skin, it can be for sensitive skin, normal skin, first of all, learn your skin type. During sunbathing and going around under sun, cloth choosing is an essential point; try to wear light colors, dark ones such as black, and dark blue keeps sun rays more, light colors such as white, yellow reflect the light.

Pay great attention to children, they are more sensitive to sun lights, their skin is lighter than us, do not expose a baby directly to sun.

Keep your sunbathing time as short as possible, do not try to have a tan just in day, if you want to have a tan, try to get it with sunbathing from time to time, this will reduce the risks of over exposure to the sun.

Periodically, control your moles; if they are becoming more and more, or just existing ones change in shape, there is something extraordinary, consult to a doctor without losing time.

You can get a tan even in the shade if your skin is sensitive, so take required precautions before going out. If you have to go out on sunny days, try to be in shade.

There are current searches trying to find whether excessive exposure to the sun light damages DNA or not, it is not a valid thought, but there is not also a proof showing that it does not damage, so think this point.

The only place to be exposed to the sun rays is not beaches, the surfaces like snow and water also reflect sun lights and give harm to your skin, so when you are in such a place, take precaution.

After taking precaution, the sun is not harmful; on the contrary it is a source of D vitamin for us, vitamin D is necessary for bones, with it the bones becomes stronger. Another benefit of sunbathing is that it is useful for acne treatment; researches show that sun tanning reduces acne and new acne forming. If you feel safe with precautions, enjoy the sun!

Google Earth

Google Earth was released by Google in 2004, and since then many developed versions of it have been released. There are three main types of Google Earth, the first one is Google Earth, it is free, the second one is Google Earth Plus which is 20$ per year, and the last one is Google Earth Pro, 400$ per year and it is generally used for commercial purposes.

The program Google Earth is multilingual, that is what makes it so popular and all over the world there are people using it. Resolution is a debatable subject, for every part, house, state building, military area and geographical place are showed with different resolution. There are also different symbols of these different places. Updating photographs is an important process; generally the latest images taken from satellite are used; however you can not always find the current situation of an area.

As the program Google Earth was developed more and more, new features are added to it and the view from it consists of more details. The photographs you see, shows even cars on a street with bird’s eye view. For instance, with Google Street View feature, you get a view with 360° panoramic street view, but this feature is not available in every country, it can be used only for USA, France and Italy.

Points Google Earth Shows
When Google Earth was first released, it was showing only the USA; but after a year, it was capable of showing nearly every city of the world. Islands, mountains, city centers, statues, streets, borders, bars, clubs, airports, railway stations, shopping centers, libraries, hospitals, pharmacies, schools, churches, mosques, synagogues, temples, sport centers, parks can be seen with Google Earth if the photographs of them are available.

Security and Google Earth
With release of such a program giving details of cities, people, groups, authoritative people criticized Google Earth. They said that the program will make easier the job of terrorist, it is against privacy and people with bad intentions can use the program for undesired reasons. Especially military areas, state buildings were found under risk; however Google is sensitive about that issue. If required application is made with logical reasons, Google Earth uses pixilation system to reduce the resolution of a special area. Anyway, there are even sites selling satellite images of cities, buildings.

Google Sky
Google Sky is a feature of Google Earth released in 2007. It shows the sky with telescope photographs. The user can go around in the space, see stars, nebulas and galaxies. In addition to this, the development of stars and galaxies can be watched with Google Sky.

Causes of Anorexia
The exact cause is not known. But some researches think that a combination of factors contribute the illness. Here is a list of some possible causes of anorexia:

- Genetic and Biological Factors
Medical communities are examining both genetic and biological factors of anorexia by searching for genes and some gene candidates. The results of these studies have shown that genetic and biological factors may play a role in the developing an eating disorder. According to some researchers women whose biological mother or sisters have the disorder are 12 times more likely than others.

- Psychological factors
People with some personality disorders (panic, obsessive compulsive or sensitivity disorder) are more vulnerable to anorexia than others. They are not happy and always feel uncomfortable.
a. Perfectionism: It is a psychological disorder. It plays an important role in anorexia. People with anorexia (anorexic) criticize themselves excessively. These people do not like themselves. They want to have a perfect body. They think that being overweight is equated with ugliness. They see themselves inadequate, helpless and worthless. They starve themselves to lose weight.
b. Low self esteem: People with anorexia have low self esteem. Their low self esteem is closely tied with their physical appearance. Being thin becomes a means of overcoming the low self esteem for them.
c. Depression: Generally depression leads to eating disorders. Up to 80 percent of women with anorexia have depression.

- Social Influences
In some cultures people think that being thin is the most important part of beauty. Thinness is equated with success, money and beauty.
a. Media Factor: Most of the famous people are underweight. People with anorexia want to look like models, actresses or dancers. Researchers think that the media play a part in the development of the illness. Most of the TV network characters are very thin. Media emphasize thinness as part of the ideal appearance of an attractive woman.
b. Family Factor: Some parents criticize their children’s bodies and appearance. If the family members repeatedly diet, the development of an eating disorder in an adolescent is not a surprise.
c. Peer pressure: The other important factor is peer pressure. It affects especially pre-teens and adolescents. Generally eating disorders begins in adolescence with strict dieting and rapid weight loss. About 1 in 100 adolescent girls suffer from anorexia in the world.

House for Everybody: Mortgage
House loan system was firstly used in the United States of America, and now in many countries, people buy house with mortgage. It is a system which gives you the chance of having a house with regular payments; you have a house like you are paying rent every month.

The price of the house is paid by mortgage system, in other words by money lender. The persona who buys the home pays an amount of money in cash, and the rest of money is paid in the frame of agreement for periods.

Saving money is a way of buying property, however it takes a long time, and you are not sure that you will certainly buy a house. With mortgage, first you buy, then you pay, and with the agreement between lender and you, the conditions are clear. In addition to buying a house to live, mortgage system can be used for investment.

With mortgage not only people own house, but also building sector becomes livelier, real estate agencies play key roles. Waiting for buying house will no longer be an idea of future, no need to wait, if you provide required conditions, anyone can get mortgage credit. If there is thought of buying a house, it means you have some amount of money already, rest of it is provided from banks, friends etc., mortgage ends this process.

A negative side of mortgage is that with this system prices increased, or sellers began to wait for it. So before buying a house, compare the previous price of it with its current price. If the difference is not so much, it is reasonable to buy.

As time passes, mortgage is becoming more and more popular all around the world, this makes it more functional and the laws about lending and borrowing are passed, this is the guarantee part of mortgage.

Security and Mortgage
Of course, not every application is accepted by money lenders, security is an obligation. Money borrower has to fulfill requirements and first of all, the money lender has the right over property, until all the credit is paid, the title belongs to money lender. When money borrower fulfilled every requirement and paid all the debt, the situation changes. If a problem occurs and the loan is not paid, the property belongs to credit giver.

Money borrower accepts the things in the agreement, it is agreed that the necessary obligations will be fulfilled, otherwise, borrower is aware of the fact that credit giver has the right over property.

Importance of Public Relations
Public relations is a currently popular field, it is an old field but it gained importance only recently. As it became more and more important, new specialization fields emerged. Organizations separated the PR department as internal and external ones, they can be named differently by different organizations, but the idea is the same. While internal one deals with organization, employers and products, the other one deals with consumers, press etc.

Think public relations as an art, it is a way of serving product and making your consumers feel satisfied and happy. With good public relations an organization becomes stronger, advertisement and marketing departments are supported, the plans of organization comes true, briefly both the seller and the buyer are content with the product, idea.

Ways used for Public Relations
Public relations uses different ways to reach its goal, to reach public. First of all, written tools are used, newspaper, magazines, books, bulletins, posters, reports, interviews are suitable ways for public relations. In addition to these, television, radio, movies, CD, internet and other audiovisual things are widely used in this department. Competitions, fairs, meetings, conferences, symposiums, festivals, and sponsorship are other ways used for public relations. While choosing a way, experts should look for the availability of it, its effectiveness. It should also be permanent and be suitable for reader or audience profile.

Public Relations in different fields
Nowadays, public relations became more important and with this change, PR also became an inseparable part of many fields. It is a supportive department of marketing organizations, civil associations, schools, companies, groups, state establishments and some other fields. For all these fields, there is not an exact product, for instance in school there is public relations department and it is used to have a good relationship with parents. Every day, new fields are added to this list.

Public Relations – Advertising – Journalism – Communications
Public relations, advertising, journalism and communications are all different disciplines; however they are closely related to each other. A new product is produced, firstly it should be presented to press, public, then there is advertisement part, and journalism and communications department support these. If one of them fails, the main goal can not be achieved, they are so closely bound to each other.

Link building is not one of the fancy internet words and it is pretty easy to understand. Building links: Ingoing links and outgoing links. 

What is ingoing links?
Ingoing links are the fact search engines as Google measures the value of your website. If other websites have chosen to link to your website, search engines see your website to be rich on information. This is like the best way of branding, as we all know it; from mouth to ear. A potential customer has more confidence in a company, whom has been recommended from a person near to us. In this case the “Customer” is the search engine. The “Person near to us” is the website linking to your website and the “Company” is your website. The winner in this case is your website. The search engines value the recommendation (the link) and gives your website higher rank. The more ingoing links you get, the more search engines value your website = higher ranking.

Are all ingoing links valuable?
No, definitely not. Some links might even give you lower ranking. Here is a list of accepted and unaccepted ingoing links, and ingoing links of not particular value:

Which ingoing links?
- When the text that links to your website is chosen carefully and tells about your service/products. If you sell cookies in your website, then the text of the link should not be “yourwebsite.com” but “delicious cookies”. This text is called the anchor text in SEO language. This means, if a website links to you with the name of your website as the anchor text, it doesn’t have any value. All search engines will rank your website in the top, when the search is “yourwebsite.com”.

- Links from websites ranking well in searches similar to your content.

- The pagerank and the pagestrength numbers of a website linking to you, is of an important matter. And so is the lifetime of the website/domain linking to you. Pagerank and pagestrength is given to websites during some time and the higher these values are, the more search engines value them. These sites have existed for a while and links from websites will have a greater benefit for you.

- If you are able to control receiving an ingoing link from a website, make sure that it is indexed by e.g. Google. You do that by searching in Google like this: site:www.sitename.com. If the website is not indexed, then no search result will show. In this case either it is a brand new website or worse; it is banned from Google. You definitely don’t want links from those websites.

- Links from sites using redirects, rel=nofollow and JavaScript are definitely waste of time. They are harmful, but don’t have any value. Links must be linking directly to your website.

- Links from websites, with content similar to your website, are the most valuable ingoing links.

- Links from websites, that you don’t link back to, are again the most valuable ingoing links. My best advice to you is to start another serious website (C), with content subject to your main website (B). When you get a link from a link partner website (A), then you can offer a link back to B from C, never from A.
Please note that the content of website C has to be different from B. If you paste the same content from C to B, one of them will be “punished” by search engines because of duplicate content.

What is outgoing links?
Outgoing links are the links you have in your website to other websites. Outgoing links also have a big value for your website. Search engines will have a picture of your website as an informational website referring to other websites.

More about outgoing links will follow.

What is Cholesterol?

What is a healthy level of cholesterol?
As I mentioned before, all people have cholesterol. In fact, having cholesterol is not that bad as we think. However it is important to know that there are two types of cholesterol: bad cholesterol (LDL) and good cholesterol (HDL). If one of them is too much in the body, this will lead you to the risk of heart disease and stroke. You can see the healthy level of cholesterol in the following table:

The Sources of Cholesterol
There are two sources of cholesterol in our body: from the body and from the foods. Our body produces about 75 percent of blood cholesterol and other 25 percent is produced by the foods we eat.

Bad cholesterol (LDL) is produced naturally by the body. However we can also inherit genes from our family. Too much LDL in the body can lead us a cardiovascular disease. You can reduce your risk of heart disease by taking responsibility for managing your cholesterol levels.

How to manage cholesterol levels
All people know that stress is the main factor of all disease, so you should try to get rid of stress. Stress reduction will help you to manage your cholesterol levels. You should change your lifestyle and do physical activities. You need to eat a healthy diet. You should remember that all foods that are of animal origin have the highest amount of cholesterol.
I know that giving up smoking is not easy but you have to realize that cigarette smoking lowers HDL cholesterol levels.

However for some people these changes will not be enough to reach healthy cholesterol levels. In this case if you need to lower your cholesterol level, you should consult a doctor and set up a plan. It is also recommended by the American Heart Association to test your cholesterol every 5 years for people aged 20 years or older.

SEO is a method used by webmasters to improve the internal and external aspects of a website and to reach billions of searchers. The higher ranking a website gets, the more visitors are sent to their website through search engines – Thanks to SEO.
Ranking is the search engine position of the website, when the search is made. The higher position the website has the more visitors it gets. The competition between websites is on targeted keywords and phrases.

Search engine optimizers
Webmasters, who have a great skill and understanding in both the way a website should be build, programmed and designed and how different search engines crawl the websites, is called “search engine optimizers”. In another word: Experts in how to optimize a website in a better way towards search engines’ rules, systems and bots.

Search engines
The most used search engine in the world is Google, which is the reason why most of the SEO experts mostly optimize according to Google. Most of the search engines, as Google, Yahoo, MSN, AskJeeves, AOL etc., work with the same procedure, but a website isn’t necessarily placed at the exact same ranking in two different search engines.
Search engine bots (the spiders) daily crawl websites and index the contents. A lot of facts are relevant for the bots on how to rank the websites.

SEO-crooks
A lot of rules have to be followed by search engine optimizers. Some SEO-crooks (whom indeed are experts as well), sometimes manage to “break the law”. Just like hackers manage to hack huge websites and professional servers, the SEO-crooks also find a way to cheat the search engines to reach higher rankings. Some of the results are even amazing and impossible to believe, but luckily bigger search engines are fast to find out about these crooks.
