shame its coem to this and im a tad confused, but i will say that we all make spelling msitakes and yes if its in the title it can make it hard for people to find especially on say google where we are trying to get a good name.
As admin on another site and probably in the rules on there ( not sure about here) it does state that team members have the right to cancel/edit posts etc without the knowledge of the origional poster. This may be done for several reasons. But it is the job of the admin and mods to make sure that all posts are polite and clear for others to be able to read. As long as the title of the thread is correct it can be picked up by members and search engines - which helps bring in new members
But as i do not understand exactly what has happened due to not being on at the time all i will say is moh shame you feel that way and you will be missed by a lot of members. Id like to think you will reconsider and as said let bygones be bygones.
we are all here to help each other - is that not why the forum was born?? on here peeps are much friendlier than other sites.
so come on show some love! (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((BIG CYBER HUGS)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) to all!
moh we want you back!!!

Do You Suffer From Tired Looking Eyes?
Just follow some of these guidelines listed below;
The general remedies that will help you get rid of the dark circles under the eyes consist in drinking at least 1,5-2 litres of water daily, having a healthy diet in which vegetables and fruits should prevail, getting enough rest and sleep, avoiding cigarette smoking etc. In a nutshell, leading a healthy life from A to Z. But sometimes this is quite hard for us, while the instant methods are most at hand and not that demanding.
Therefore, try using one of the following natural recipes in your spare time. It only takes a minute, but the effect on our appearance will be worth it.
The most common home-made remedy against shadowy circles under the eyes is applying thin slices of cucumber exactly on the dark area the bothers us. The slices should be left under the eyes for 5-10 minutes. Besides the fact that they will chase away the problematic circles, cucumber slices also sooth and cool the eyes. It is a very efficient method that gets you rid of the redness of tired eyes after a night of hard work on the computer (especially on TKs), for example. After removing the slices from under the eyes, rinse with cold water.
Cold teaspoons applied on the skin under the eyes also do wonders. Put two clean teaspoons in the fridge and when they are cold lay on your back and put the spoons on the dark circles. They will refresh both the area and the eyes.
Cool empty teabags on the skin under the eyes are also a very efficient remedy they calm the skin and prevent it from swelling. Of the full herbal teabags the most recommended in treating dark circles are the ones that contain chamomile. Chamomile tea is a natural anti-inflammatory that will leave your face brighter and less swollen.
Besides the remedies applied on the skin under the eyes there are also simple massage techniques that can be performed on your own at home. For example, place the ring fingers at the inner corners of the eyes and press gently for a few times; then move the fingers towards the outer corner of the eyes (the temples). Mildly press the skin with the middle fingers all the way from the inner to the outer corner of the eyes. This will calm down the inflamed areas under the eyes.This is what i do if i have had a night out which went on longer than expected and off to work with blood shot eyes the next morning, buy Murine drops from a chemist their about 4 Euro will last ages and definitely remove the blood shot eyes and restore the white of the eye to its natural colour "white" trust me it work brilliantly 👍

Nicotine :smoke:
Changes Your Body Goes Through When You Quit
Smoking
What is Nicotine?
Nicotine is the substance found in tobacco which creates mild intoxication. It is found in all tobacco products such as: cigarettes, pipe tobacco, chewing tobacco, and cigars. When a person smokes a tobacco product, they inhale the smoke which contains nicotine as well as over 500 chemicals. Nicotine is the drug in tobacco that causes addiction. When a user is addicted to nicotine, they feel as if they need nicotine in order to function normally. The smoke from tobacco also contains tar which is damaging to the mouth, throat, and lungs. Nicotine reaches the brain within 10 seconds after intake.
Within 20 minutes of last cigarette:
Blood pressure drops to normal
Pulse drops to normal rate
Body temperature of hands and feet increase to normal
Within 8 hours:
Carbon dioxide level in blood drops to normal
Oxygen level in blood increases to normal
Within 24 hours:
Chance of heart attack decreases
Within 48 hours:
Nerve endings start to regrow
Ability to smell and taste enhances
Within 48 - 72 hours:
Nicotine leaves the body
Within 72 hours:
Bronchial tubes relax, making breathing easier
Lung capacity increases
Within 2 weeks to 3 months:
Circulation improves
Walking becomes easier
Lung function increases up to 30%
Within 1 to 9 months:
Coughing, sinus congestion, fatigue and shortness of breath decrease.
Cilia regrow in lungs, increasing ability to handle mucus, clean the lungs and reduce infection .
Body's overall energy level increases
Within 5 years:
Lung cancer death rate for average smoker (one pack a day) decreases from 137 per 100,000 people to 72 per 100,000 (after 10 years, rate drops to 12 deaths per 100,000 - or almost the rate of a non-smoker).
Within 10 years:
Pre-cancerous cells are replaced
Other cancers, such as those of the mouth, larynx, esophagus, bladder, kidney and
pancreas decrease (there are 30 chemicals in tobacco smoke that cause cancer) :smoke:

Having a curry once or twice a week could stave off Alzheimer's disease, it has been claimed. Skip related content
Curcumin, an ingredient in turmeric, which is used widely in Indian cuisine, is believed to prevent changes in the brain by blocking the spread of amyloid plaques - toxic protein deposits thought to play a key role in Alzheimer's.
Members of the Royal College of Psychiatrists were told at their annual meeting in Liverpool that laboratory and animal studies have already produced strong evidence that curry combats dementia.
A clinical trial is now under way in California to test the effects of curcumin on a group of Alzheimer's patients.
Indian-born American expert Professor Murali Doraiswamy said: "You can modify a mouse so that at about 12 months its brain is riddled with plaques. If you feed it a curcumin-rich diet it dissolves these plaques. The same diet prevented younger mice from forming new plaques.
"The next step is to test curcumin on human amyloid plaque formation using newer brain scans and there are plans for that."
Prof Doraiswarmy said rates of Alzheimer's are known to be low in Asian communities with turmeric-rich diets. One study in Singapore showed that regular curry eaters were at least half as likely to develop the disease as people who avoided curry.
Curries from southern India are richest in the spice, with it mostly found in Indian dishes with a "gravy" - not necessarily the hottest ones - including chicken and lamb tikkas.
"If you're not a fan of curry you can try putting mustard on your food," said Prof Doraiswamy. "I'm not a big fan of supplements in general but if they're from a responsible store then that might be another way to go."
He continued: "Studies looking at populations show that people who eat a curry meal two or three times a week seem to have a lower risk for dementia.
"Those studies seem to show that you need only consume what is part of the normal diet - but the research studies are testing higher doses to see if they can maximise the effect. It would be equivalent of going on a curry spree for a week."
Curcumin's effects are not well understood but it is believed to reduce inflammation - an immune reaction thought to play a key role in Alzheimer's - in a number of different ways, he said. It is thought to inhibit an enzyme called cox-2 which is also the target of anti-inflammatory drugs.
Prof Doraiswarmy added: "It is considered one of the three or four essential spices that are good for longevity. I eat curry at least three or four times a week and even when I make western dishes I often use curry spices to flavour them."
Meanwhile, an Essex restaurant claims it has created the world's hottest curry.
The Polash Restaurant in Shoebury has made the Polash Meltdown - which measures more than 1 million on the Scoville Heat Units scale - to celebrate its 30th birthday.
Anyone wishing to try it must first sign a disclaimer.
