Bizarre Locations 10. Why are dogs committing suicide by jumpingoff the Overtoun Bridge? The Overtoun Bridge is an arch bridge located near Milton, Scotland, overthe Overtoun Burn. The long leap from the bridge onto the waterfalls of the Overtoun Estatealmost always results in immediate death. There have been a number of theories as to why dogs are choosing to endtheir lives by jumping off the bridge, ranging from the bridge being hauntedto the canines suffering from depression, or even picking up depressed orsuicidal feelings from the bridge. It has been suggested that the height of the bridge’s granite walls significantlyimpairs the dogs’ sense of sight and hearing, so when they go to investigatethe smell, they are unaware of the massive fall that awaits them. 9.

Lose weight the French way | Herald Sun - StumbleUpon Attack phase ... Protein like meat and fish is the focus of the first stage of the Dukan Diet. Source: The Sunday Telegraph HAVE you ever wondered why most French women appear to be effortlessly slim? When French nutritionist Dr Pierre Dukan introduced his Dukan Diet there 10 years ago, the book rushed to the top of the French bestseller list and spawned a dieting revolution. Today, more than 1.5 million French women swear by its dramatic and long-lasting results. Politicians, film stars and high-profile models, including Gisele Bündchen and Jennifer Lopez, live the Dukan life, all of them seduced by its promise of permanent slenderness while eating what you like. The basic rules The Dukan Diet starts with a short Attack phase, where you eat nothing but protein – just meat, fish, eggs and non-fat dairy products. This is the kick-start that gives you the initial impetus and sets the tone for the other phases. After one to 10 days in the Attack phase, dieters move on to the Cruise phase.

Chocolate Guinness Cupcakes with Whiskey and Baileys The only way a good stout beer, whiskey, and Irish cream liquor could be better is if they were mixed together - a la an Irish Car Bomb. Better still though, would be mixing it all up with some chocolate in the form of rich Guinness chocolate cupcakes, filled with Jameson chocolate ganache, and topped with Bailys buttercream frosting. Variations on this recipe can be found on loads of amazing food blogs like Smitten Kitchen, the Busty Baker, and others! Note: These do contain some booze that isn't cooked off, so please be careful (no heavy machinery, etc.) and keep them away from the youngsters. Also Note: "Irish Car Bomb" is a pretty horrible thing to call a drink or a cupcake.

CheapCooking.com: Cheap Quick Easy Recipes for your Family, Cheap Healthy... The 5 Most Mind-Blowing Things That Can Be Found Underwater Exploring the depths via scuba or free diving is one of those things that seems really cool in theory. Then you swim around in a pool for 36 hours, go to the man-made lake you heard had a flooded town and discover a bunch of muddy brick foundations. It turns out that lakes in the Midwest are about as full of adventurous treasures as the towns around them. #5. A group of amateur cave explorers discovered a river in Mexico with banks, trees and leaves just like an ordinary river, but with an additional metric shit ton of "WTF," because they were hovering 25 feet over it in scuba gear when they discovered it.

Now, when you write that your stomach feels awful, what do you mean exactly? Are you hungry? Do you feel stomach ache? I remember that the first 3 days were difficult because the change was pretty radical from my previous morning habits. So my advice is to take a solid breakfast, it doesn’t have to be exactly like mine (2 eggs, 2 slices of bacon, 1 tomato, 1 piece of cheese, some hazelnuts), but I think you should have proteins (eggs+bacon), some moderate fat(cheese+bacon), fibers (tomato) and a small treat (nuts). I don’t drink coffee, sometimes tea, and sometimes milk. When you’re out of phase 1, you can add a couple fruits, like an apple or an orange. Finally, to answer your question about low-fat fruit yogurt, yes it has too much sugar. By the way, most low-fat products replace fat with sugar.
