How to add social buttons to blogger post?

Yeah..Help your visitors share, save and subscribe to your content with sweet sexy social buttons below your post. I really like the concept of this button. Very cute and clean. By adding social networking icons to your blog you will definitely boost your blog's traffic, if it done properly. It should be attractive, correctly placed, aligned and also visible separately from the post. Here's an attractive bookmarking widget, that by default partially hides the buttons and shows them only when a visitor hovers his mouse cursor over the icons.



Follow below easy step and keep smiling..:)

1) Log in to Blogger, go to Layout -> Edit HTML and mark the "Expand Widget Templates" box. Please make sure backup your template.

Auction Tips, You Must Do..

BUYING AT AUCTION:
The most important thing to remember is that under the Auction system, when you buy a property, there is no cooling off period as there is when you buy ‘for sale’. The Auction sale is legally binding on the day. These guidelines should help you with understanding the Auction process.

BEFOREHAND:
1. Do your Research
When you are looking in an area, whether buying ‘for sale’ or through an Auction, research the prices in that area for the type of property that you want. Find out about the good and bad features of the area, and comparative prices to other areas. Look at similar properties to the type that you are seeking.
2.Attend Local Auctions
It is valuable experience to attend as many local Auctions as you can to see how the Auction proceeds. Observe how people bid, and who is at the Auction. Work out people’s style of bidding. The same people may be bidding against you for your property in the near future.
3.Arrange your Finances
Ensure that you have your Finance in place prior to the Auction. Establish you bidding limit. Make sure you allow for all extra costs, eg legal, stamp duty, finance fees etc.

WHEN YOU HAVE DECIDED ON THE PROPERTY:
1. Register your Intent with the Agent
Advise the Real Estate Agent if you are interested in a property. They will advise you if the Vendor would consider sale prior to Auction, and whether any offers have been received prior to the Auction Day.
2.Establish your Bidding Limit
It is important that you set your own bidding limit. Decide what the property is worth to you based on what you can afford. To make sure you can afford a property work out the limit on your loan and add 3% to the interest rate. If you could still make the payment then that is a very safe limit.
3.Set an Uneven Limit
Wherever possible, it pays to set an uneven limit, rather than stopping on a round number. For example, rather than stopping at 410,000, try going to 411,000. A small $500 bid could make the difference if the other bidder is close to their limit.
4.Check the Paperwork
If you are seriously interested in a property and intend to bid you should have your Solicitor inspect the Contract of Sale. It is a good idea to have a good read through all the paperwork related to the Auction beforehand. Wherever possible, contact the Agent handling the sale and ask them to provide you with a copy of the documentation. This is normally possible in the week prior to Auction. Read through all of the documents and always ask if you are unsure of anything. It is important to clarify details such as settlement terms, deposit and fixtures before the auction commences.
5.Inspections
Get building and pest inspections done before the Auction. It is not possible to make an Auction purchase conditional on inspection results. Make sure that any reports or inspections have been carried out to your satisfaction before you attend the Auction.
5.Ask for Help
Many people find the Auction process daunting. Don’t be afraid to ask a friend, relative or Real Estate Agent, to assist you with your bidding. Many people ask someone else to bid on their behalf as they may be less inclined to bid emotionally and will not exceed a predetermined limit. Make certain that they have very clear instructions in writing on what they can and can’t do on your behalf - remember, there is no cooling off period with an Auction.

ON AUCTION DAY:
1.Presentation is Important
If you look like an affluent, confident property buyer, this will help convince your competition that you won’t stop until the property is yours. Remember that it isn’t always the person with the most money that wins at auction. It is the person who convinces everyone else to stop bidding.
2.Check the Contract of Sale again
On the Auction Day you should always check that your copy of the Contract of Sale is exactly the same as the original Auction Contract and that there have been no late changes.
3.Bidding
Remember how an Auction looks from the Auctioneer’s perspective. They are often looking at a large number of people who are invariably turning around, whispering etc. If you are standing at the back of this scene, or hidden in the shade of a tree, the Auctioneer may well miss your bid, particularly when you are bidding for the first time. Stand in clear sight of the Auctioneer and make your first bid obvious to them.
Make sure the Auctioneer understands what you are doing. Bid early, clearly and confidently, and avoid unusual sign language that may be misunderstood. Buyers are usually reluctant to start bidding at Auction but the best policy is to bid loudly and confidently signalling to all other bidders you intend to purchase the property or should the reserve price not be reached that you are given an opportunity in any further negotiations.
4.Keep Control of your Bidding
If the bidding is increasing in larger denominations than you are comfortable with, consider offering a lower denomination as your bid. The Auctioneer does have the right to refuse it, but there is absolutely no harm in trying.
It is important not to be drawn into a bidding war on a property you want. Emotion can lead to you paying more than you can afford and there is no cooling off period with an Auction.
5.Making a Deposit
When the property is sold at the Auction you are required to sign the Contract of Sale and pay a deposit of usually 10% on the spot. This can be paid by Personal or Bank Cheque or subject to prior approval with the Agent by Deposit Guarantee.
6.The End of the Auction
Hopefully, now you are celebrating your successful purpose. Time to break out the champagne!

15 Top gym mistakes

Even experienced pros make mistakes in the gym. But you don't have to with our comprehensive guide of what not to do

Change your programme after four to six weeks, otherwise you get into a pattern and you stop producing results because your body has hit a plateau

You may be new to the gym, or you may have been going for years, but there are some mistakes that even seasoned trainers make again and again. If you’ve reached a plateau in your training or you’re not getting to where you want to be fast enough, there’s a good chance that you’re making at least one of these mistakes.

Maxim has recruited Lee Archer, personal trainer and director at Pro Fitness in Bristol, to help you avoid the many pitfalls that are waiting to trap unwary gym-goers.


1 You always stick to the same workout
We all tend to repeat the things we like doing, so it’s no wonder that once we find a workout that suits us we stick to it. Archer advises against this. ‘Change your programme after four to six weeks, otherwise you get into a pattern and you stop producing results because your body has hit a plateau,’ he says. As well as changing your workout, you can mix it up by cross training – try a circuit or kickboxing class once a week.

2 You copy the hardcore gym members
It’s easy to think that to get as ripped as the guy in your gym who wows all the female instructors with one-armed press-ups, you have simply to follow his lead. ‘People see someone lifting a heavier weight or using a certain technique and rather than ask them what they’re up to they just copy them,’ says Archer. The problem is that without knowing what someone else’s fitness aims are, copying them could land you with unexpected results or an injury. ‘The best solution is to read magazines and do your homework before you hit the gym. Be careful who you take advice from, because some fitness instructors are not highly qualified and won’t necessarily know what is best for you.’

3 You go every day
You may be someone who can’t do anything by halves, but working out every day is not sustainable – either physically or mentally. ‘If you go every day you won’t be able to maintain a useful intensity and you’ll get bored,’ says Archer. ‘It becomes a chore and you’ll start missing sessions, beating yourself up about it and losing motivation.’ Incorporate proper rest days into your schedule. ‘Take the dog for a walk, or go to the gym but use the sauna and Jacuzzi to chill out,’ he suggests.

4 You use the gym for socialising
Go to your gym often enough and it starts to feel like a second home. This is a dangerous moment. ‘For a lot of people who go every day it becomes their social life,’ says Archer. ‘They chat for half an hour and their training suffers, then they go to the restaurant afterwards and suddenly they’re at the gym every night – but how much work are they actually doing?’ So get your priorities right. The gym is there to burn calories and get you fit and looking good.

5 You exercise aimlessly
Exercise is enjoyable for its own sake. But once the high of bashing out monster reps on the bench press wears off it can seem a bit pointless. Keep short-term and long-term goals in mind to keep you motivated, and chart your progress. ‘A short-term goal might be to improve your treadmill speed by a notch. It’s a good way to keep yourself working towards your long-term goal,’ says Archer. ‘If you can’t think of a long-term goal, it’s the gym staff’s job to help you find one.’

6 You only train on your own
Single-minded focus is commendable, but all top athletes use training partners to keep them going and push them to the next level of performance. ‘Ideally you want someone who’s got the same goals as you and whose strength and fitness levels are just a bit better than yours,’ says Archer. ‘You’ll be pushed in every session and each will make sure the other goes to the gym.’

7 You never take a break
Slavishly following a workout plan for a whole year is likely to lead to burnout. ‘If your training is getting stale and you’re not getting anywhere, take a break – but do it properly and have a couple of weeks off,’ says Archer. ‘It gives you what you need for a total recovery of your body and your mind, because boredom is the biggest killer. If you go on holiday, you don’t have to pack running shoes. Treat it as a way to reward yourself and help you reach your goals.’

8 You beat yourself up when you have a bad session
Even the most motivated and energetic gym-goer can have a really crap training session. There’s often no real reason: your body just isn’t up for it. Don’t imagine that you’re going backwards. ‘Sometimes you don’t feel great, but just being there is enough,’ says Archer. ‘People who are hard on themselves and start to feel negative about it tend to eventually stop going to the gym altogether.’

9 You confuse a tired brain with a tired body
A tough day at the office leaves you shattered and in no mood for the gym, so you go home and try to get an early night but end up with a bout of insomnia. If that sounds familiar, you may need to separate mental and physical fatigue. ‘People think they’re tired when all they’ve done is sit at their computers. Their brain is knackered but their body is keyed-up and ready for exercise,’ says Archer. ‘By going to the gym, you’ll get your energy levels surging and de-stress yourself in the process.’

10 You work through colds
It’s often said that if you exercise when you have the beginnings of a cold, you’ll work it out of your system. This is nonsense. ‘When you train you weaken your immune system because you ask it to repair the muscles you’ve damaged in order for them to get stronger,’ says Archer. ‘If you’ve got a cold already, lowering the immune system is going to bring that cold on even more.’ If you’re feeling ill, eat well and take two days off to recover so you’re fully fit to begin training again.

11 You stick to the machines
You’ve reached a plateau and are struggling to move that pin on to heavier weights on your favourite machine. But your body knows its limits better than you do and has shut down growth in the muscle group you’re targeting because its supporting stabilising muscles aren’t strong enough. The best way to work stabilisers and make your other muscles work harder at the same time is to replace the weight machine with dumb-bells. ‘You can get a lot more from dumb-bells because their movement is not restricted and they work both sides equally,’ says Archer.

12 You don’t warm up specifically
Running on a treadmill for ten minutes won’t warm you up for a set of chin-ups. ‘Try matching the warm-up to the muscle group – rowing is good for the upper body. Then do two light sets of 12-15 reps before you do your work sets,’ says Archer. ‘The same applies to cardio workouts. Warm up at 30-60 per cent of race pace.’

13 You don’t time your rests between sets
Between sets, you wander around or sit staring into space until you sense that the guy waiting for your station is getting wound up and you launch into the next set. This is likely to sabotage your workout. ‘Your recovery time is important when looking at how much you are going to be able to lift later on,’ says Archer. ‘Too short a rest and your muscles won’t have recovered; too long and you won’t get the benefit.’ Wear a stopwatch and don’t be intimidated into starting your next set too early.

14 You only ever use heavy weights to build muscle
When you hit the weights room, you always lift the heaviest weight possible. This may limit your growth because you’ll hit your muscles in a very predictable way, and it’s hard to control large weights precisely. ‘Now and then, go light and do extra reps with a greater range of motion. People don’t always lock out on biceps curls, for instance, and you can end up with short biceps. If you go heavy you have to make sure that your technique is spot-on first,’ says Archer.

15 You do too many workouts
You hammer yourself into the ground with weights and cardio training until you end up breaking down your body faster than it can repair itself. ‘When I train my clients I go for three or four sessions in the gym a week with three days off within that,’ says Archer. ‘When you rest is when you grow, and people don’t realise how long they have to rest. Listen to your body and if a muscle is aching don’t work it until it stops.’

Wifi

Coverage Area

The coverage pattern of most Wi-Fi gear is omni directional (360 degrees) and assumes a home, office or coverage area with a symmetrical footprint and centrally located dsl or cable internet connection. However, no two locations are exactly the same, varying both in dimension and size, with a primary internet connection in the corner of the structure. As a result, the radiated Wi-Fi signal covers only part of the area intended, spilling out into the street or a neighboring structure. Compounding coverage problems further, many locate their routers, access points or desktop Wi-Fi cards in a closet, against the wall or under a desk,diminishing signal strength and limiting bandwidth.

Interference and Security

The secondary consequences of a device located on the boundaries of a home or office are unintended interference with neighboring networks as well as an increased security risk. By design, WiFi devices must share radio spectrum, allowing co-existence of other devices in the same physical space. With limited bandwidth available, abutting WiFi devices will decrease the performance one another. Moreover, as ones WiFi network radiates beyond the physical space of their own home or office, it is at an increased risk of piggybacking or intrusion by unauthorized users.

Community WiFi

These networks are providing a number of services to they communities they service, including, free or pay internet access for citizens, authorized public worker access to key content, surveillance and traffic cameras and public access to community content. And while these networks provide access to many areas, they are not total coverage solutions. In addition, as more subscribers come on line, network capacity must be upgraded or made more efficient to ensure sufficient bandwidth. Providers are offering unequal levels of service to users and leaving money on the table in the way of would be subscribers and services that are just out of the effective range of the network.

The Best Ways to Boost your Wi-Fi Signal

1-Use a Wi-Fi Antenna Extension Cable
Remove your existing antenna, connect it to a wi-fi antenna cable
2-Replace your stock antenna with a high gain directional antenna.
By far, the most well known and widely used antenna for wi-fi is the Cantenna

Travel Tips

It's always important to take care of your health, but there are additional concerns to keep in mind when you're traveling.
Whether you're taking a quick trip with your family or studying abroad for several months, it's easier to get sick when you're in a new place because your body hasn't had a chance to adjust to the food, water, and air in a new environment. Traveling can bring you in contact with things that your body isn't used to.
Here are some tips on keeping your travel experience as healthy as possible.
Don't Take a Vacation From Health
The stress and excitement of travel can make you more likely to get sick, but if you follow a few simple tips, you're more likely to stay healthy throughout your trip — and your trip will definitely be more enjoyable. The good news is that as a teen, your immune system is as strong as an adult's, but lack of sleep and a poor diet can make it easier for you to become sick.


The first thing you should do if you're heading overseas is to find out what kinds of vaccinations you'll need in advance because different countries have different requirements. In the United States, contact your doctor or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for a list of necessary vaccinations. You'll want to allow plenty of time for this step in case you need to get vaccines that require more than one dose.
Common Travel Troubles
Three of the most common health problems that you may experience when traveling are jet lag, altitude sickness, and diarrhea. When you fly across time zones, the differing amounts of light can change your internal body clock, resulting in a condition known as jet lag. Jet lag may cause some symptoms that are bummers on a fun trip, including upset stomach, insomnia, and tiredness.
There are some things you can do to combat jet lag; for example, if you're traveling from west to east, you should stay out of the sun until the day after your arrival. If you're flying from east to west, go for a brisk walk as soon as possible after you arrive.
Altitude sickness is caused by dry air, a decrease in oxygen, and low barometric pressure when you travel to a higher altitude than you're used to. As a result, you may have problems, such as headaches, dehydration, and shortness of breath. Some people are affected at 5,000 feet (1,524 meters), but others aren't affected until they reach altitudes of 10,000 feet (3,048 meters) or more. Find out what altitude you're traveling to before you go to see if altitude sickness could be a problem.
The best prevention for altitude sickness is to gradually increase your altitude every day to get used to it. If that isn't possible, a drug known as acetazolamide can help relieve and even prevent symptoms of altitude sickness. If you think that you might get altitude sickness, talk with your doctor before you leave home.
The topic of diarrhea may seem gross, but it can be a serious problem. Traveler's diarrhea, known as turista, often occurs when a foreign type of bacteria enters your digestive tract, usually when you eat contaminated food or water. The best way to prevent turista is to be very careful of the food you eat and the water you drink on the road.

Safe Eats and Drinks
So what foods are safe to eat? Any foods that have been boiled are generally safe, as well as fruits and vegetables that have to be peeled before eating. Avoid eating uncooked or undercooked meat or meat that is not cooked just prior to serving.
Stay away from foods that require a lot of handling before serving. Here's an example: Nine friends ate at a restaurant when on a school trip overseas; eight had diarrhea the next day. The one who didn't get sick was the only one who had ordered a dish that didn't need to be touched by human hands right before serving.
One of your favorite foods at home is on the safe list on the road — pizza! Pizza dough, sauce, and cheese are foods that are less likely to spoil than others, and the high heat of a pizza oven tends to kill any harmful bacteria in the food.
You've probably heard that you shouldn't drink the water in some countries overseas, but did you know why? Water supplies in many developing countries are not treated in the same way as water supplies in developed countries; various bacteria, viruses, and parasites are commonly found in the water. Many experts suggest you drink only bottled water when traveling. If you need to use tap water, you should boil it first or purify it with an iodine tablet. Even if you're brushing your teeth, rinsing contact lenses, drinking a small glass of water to wash down pills, or adding ice to your drink, first take precautions to ensure the water is safe.
You Can Take It With You
When you're packing, you'll want to include any medications and other medical supplies you use on a daily basis because they may be hard to find in another country if you run out. Even if you can find them, there's a good chance the formulations will be stronger or weaker than the ones you're used to. These may include any prescriptions you already take, such as inhalers, allergy medication, and insulin, as well as contact lens cleaners and vitamins.
Packing an over-the-counter pain medication like acetaminophen and diarrhea medication is also a good idea. It's a good idea to pack some over-the-counter allergy medication even if you don't take it at home. People sometimes unexpectedly develop allergic reactions to the pollens and other allergens found in a new environment. Those with asthma or other allergies can unexpectedly react to these new substances.

Write It All Down
Even if you watch what you eat and drink and get enough rest while you're traveling, you may still get sick. The good news is that you'll probably be able to find competent medical care. The key is knowing where to go. Most travel guides suggest you go to a hospital where English is spoken or U.S.-trained doctors can be found. For this reason, it's a good idea to always carry a written copy of your medical history with you.
Having such important information available in one place can help health care workers make appropriate decisions, and you won't have to worry about forgetting important information at a time when you're likely to be upset and not thinking clearly.
Before you leave your home sweet home, create a medical history form that includes the following information:
your name, address, and home phone number as well as a parent's daytime phone number
your blood type
immunizations
your doctor's name, address, and office and emergency phone numbers
the name, address, and phone number of your health insurance carrier, including your policy number
a list of any ongoing health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes, or AIDS
a list of current medications you are taking and pharmacy name and phone number
a list of allergies to medications, food, insects, and animals
a prescription for glasses or contact lenses
the name, address, and phone number of a relative other than your parent
It also helps if you have some basic emergency medical knowledge, not only for yourself but for helping others you may be traveling with. A great way to prepare for your trip is to take a first-aid or basic life support course before you go; if you're traveling with a group, you should know where the first-aid kit is and what's in it.
Basic Safety
It's easy to let your guard down when you travel. After all, you're more relaxed and there are so many new sights to focus on. In addition to paying attention to your personal safety (avoiding secluded places and not walking alone after dark), you'll need to reset your thinking when it comes to traffic safety, too. The rules of the road aren't the same overseas as they are at home. In some countries, people drive on the opposite side of the road and you'll need to be aware of this before you cross the street — look in the opposite direction from the one you're used to. Pedestrians don't always have the right of way overseas, either. Be sure there are no cars coming when you step into the street: If there are, they may not stop for you!
If you practice these healthy hints you can focus on the scenery — not medical emergencies — and return home with nothing more troubling than some tacky souvenirs!.
