Some Easy Ways To Lose Weight
Drink
Extra layers of clothing, warm offices and centrally heated homes can lead to dehydration. Studies show that even small losses in fluids can lead to tiredness and lethargy which in turn can result in excess weight gain, as when tired we feel less inclined to exercise. Research also shows that thirst is often confused with hunger so being dehydrated could actually cause you to eat more too. To avoid that happening drink at least eight glasses of water a day or for a more appealing winter warming drink try herbal and weak teas or hot water with lemon.
Wash
There's nothing like a cold to wipe out your workout, bring activity levels to a standstill and turn your healthy eating habits on their head - all of which can lead to excess weight gain. Experts agree that the single most effective thing you can do to reduce your risk of picking up one of the 200 common cold and flu viruses is to wash your hands regularly throughout the day.
Sleep
Women who sleep for five or fewer hours a night are 32 percent more likely to gain weight and 15 percent more likely to become obese than women who sleep for seven or more hours. Why? It is believed that lack of sleep may slow metabolism or decrease the calories burned by spontaneous activities such as fidgeting. What better reason could there be to dive under that duvet this winter?

Gardening DIY Safety Tips
# Always pay attention when using garden equipment, especially if it is electrical. Make sure cables trial behind the equipment, never cut towards a flex or use in the rain or wet conditions and always use an RCD with any electrical garden appliance.
# Never clean, lift, adjust or even check electrical garden tools while they are still connected to a power supply. Always switch off and unplug first. Only clear grass from a power mower once it is switched off and the spark plug cap has been removed.
# Don't clean electrical garden equipment with water - switch off first, unplug and then wipe it with a cloth.
# Always protect your feet by wearing strong shoes or boots. Hover mowers and trimmers can easily drift and injure a foot.
# If you have materials such as asbestos and lead in your garden, seek advice about handling it from your local authority or call in a professional.

Everything You Ever Wanted To Know...
About Coronation Street! It's all here in one fantastic little book.
The Complete Saga: An Epic Novel of Life in 'the Street' from 1960 to the Present Day, starts from the time when Rovers Return landlady Annie Walker first cast a disapproving glance at Ena Sharples gossiping with Minnie Caldwell to the traumas caused by the tangled love lives of the Websters and the McDonalds. Just like any other street in the country, the locals living there have changed dramatically over the years since the rest of Britain first paid the area a visit in 1960. There have been many marriages, births and deaths, with characters such as Elsie Tanner, Hilda Ogden, Alf Roberts or Mike Baldwin fading into the past as new faces move into the street. The one man who has remained ever since we first saw him there all those years ago is, of course, Ken Barlow. Despite the changing nature of its residents and the many disasters and tragedies that have befallen them, one thing in the street always remains the same. Defying all the dark intrigue and neighbourhood squabbles, the people who live there maintain a close-knit community, supporting each other through the tough times and celebrating the good times. This is the complete story of Coronation Street.

How To Win X FACTOR
Since it was first screened in 2004, the X Factor has become essential weekend viewing, with regular TV audiences of over 12 million - but the question remains, how do you win? How do you impress the judges, the cruel Simon Cowel, the twinkly Louis Walsh, the beautiful Cheryl Cole. Is it the singer or the song? Is it the presentation? The support from your friends? Your background? Your attitude? Or is it the hairstyle or the well timed tears? TV writer Keeley Bolger takes a light-hearted look at the show, the controversies over vote rigging and the supposed rivalry between the judges and contestants and offers her tips - not all of them obvious - on how to win the coveted title. She also delves into the history of TV talent shows and profiles the judges and previous winners of the X Factor.

True Compass: Senator Edward M. Kennedy
In this landmark autobiography, five years in the making, Senator Edward M. Kennedy tells his extraordinary personal story, of his legendary family, politics, and fifty years at the center of national events.
The youngest of nine children born to Joseph P. Kennedy and Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy, he came of age among siblings from whom much was expected. As a young man, he played a key role in the presidential campaign of his brother John F. Kennedy, recounted here in loving detail. In 1962 he was elected to the U.S. Senate, where he began a fascinating political education and became a legislator.
In this historic memoir, Ted Kennedy takes us inside his family, re-creating life with his parents and brothers and explaining their profound impact on him. For the first time, he describes his heartbreak and years of struggle in the wake of their deaths. Through it all, he describes his work in the Senate on the major issues of our time - civil rights, Vietnam, Watergate, the quest for peace in Northern Ireland - and the cause of his life: improved health care for all Americans, a fight influenced by his own experiences in hospitals.
His life has been marked by tragedy and perseverance, a love of family, and an abiding faith. There have been controversies, too, and Kennedy addresses them with unprecedented candor. At midlife, embattled and uncertain if he would ever fall in love again, he met the woman who changed his life, Victoria Reggie Kennedy. Facing a tough reelection campaign against an aggressive challenger named Mitt Romney, Kennedy found a new voice and began one of the great third acts in American politics, sponsoring major legislation, standing up for liberal principles, and making the pivotal endorsement of Barack Obama for president.
Hundreds of books have been written about the Kennedys. TRUE COMPASS will endure as the definitive account from a member of America's most heralded family, an inspiring legacy to readers and to history, and a deeply moving story of a life like no other.
