birthstone meanings birthday stone The wearing of birthstones is thought to bring good luck and good health. Astrologers long ago attributed supernatural powers to certain gemstones. The birthstones we associate with certain months now are not necessarily the same ones as in ancient times. Once, color was the most important feature of a stone. Ancients did not distinguish between a ruby and a garnet, for example. The names used in history may not relate to the stone we think of with that name today. For example, a sapphire in the Bible was probably what we know today as lapis.Diamonds were probably a white sapphire or white topaz.The stones originally assigned to each month related to the stones appearing on the breastplate of a Jewish high priest. January's birthstone, the garnet, is thought to keep the wearer safe during travel. February's birthstone, the amethyst, is said to strengthen relationships and give its wearer courage. May's birthstone, the emerald, was one of Cleopatra's favorite gems.

bodyweight Are all calories equal for weight loss? ‘All calories are not created equal’ according to new research that suggests certain diets help to burn more energy than others. The study challenges the notion that ‘a calorie is just a calorie’ from a metabolic point of view by suggesting that a low-glycemic load diet is more effective than conventional approaches at burning calories at a higher rate after weight loss.

Writing in JAMA, the team of US-based researchers examined the effects of three different diets – differing widely in macronutrient composition and glycemic load – on energy expenditure following weight loss. The researchers suggest that a strategy to reduce glycemic load rather than dietary fat may be advantageous for weight-loss maintenance and cardiovascular disease prevention. The study

Originally the idea was to count how many calorie I spend working for two hours on the PC (between the obligatory breaks I make) and bicycling on a stationary bike for half an hour (my favorite indoor sports activity). With the help of this tool I found out that both activities require approximately 300 Calorie. But what do I have to eat to get these Calorie? The process of making pictures took several weeks, and only after I made about half of the pictures, I found out that similar idea has already been realized.
