Change one habit Change your life


How to permanently change a habit (even one you thought you couldn't change) in just six weeks! You're human, just like me. (At least I'm assuming you are. As far as I know, we're the only creatures on the planet that access the Internet.)

And since you're human, you've got a habit you want to change. Maybe it's something you want to start doing, like exercising or meditating. Maybe it's something you want to stop doing, like playing video games or overeating. But no matter what it is, you've haven't gotten around to changing it yet. Something, or several things, are holding you back.

Don't feel bad. At any given time, only about twenty percent of us are ready and able to successfully change a habit. Perhaps you don't have the time or energy, or haven't made the commitment to changing that habit yet. Perhaps you've tried before and failed, and you're afraid of failing again. Perhaps you just don't believe you can really do it.

Well, you can. The Change One Habit, Change Your Life program can help you become one of that elite twenty percent.

This proven and effective program pumps up your motivation, desire, and commitment, and provides the tools and support you need to make a lasting change.

And the Manage Your Muse website is a great place to start.

What's Stopping You? Wouldn't it be great if there were an easy answer to that question? It seems like there should be - just look at the self improvement books at the bookstore - or on your own bookshelves. And yet none of them seem to do the trick. That's because while the themes are universal, the mental, emotional and physical issues that hold you back are as unique as you are. And that's what makes personal life coaching such a valuable tool in your quest for a boundless and fulfilling life

No need for dissection as see-through frogs jump in

TOKYO (AFP) - Japanese researchers have succeeded in producing see-through frogs, letting them observe organs, blood vessels and eggs under the skin without performing dissections.

"You can see through the skin how organs grow, how cancer starts and develops," said the lead researcher Masayuki Sumida, professor at the Institute for Amphibian Biology of state-run Hiroshima University.

"You can watch organs of the same frog over its entire life as you don't have to dissect it. The researcher can also observe how toxins affect bones, livers and other organs at lower costs," he told AFP.

Dissections have become increasingly controversial in much of the world, particularly in schools where animal rights activists have pressed for humane alternatives such as using computer simulations.

Sumida said his team, which announced the research last week at an academic conference, had created the first transparent four-legged creature, although some small fish are also see-through.

The researchers produced the creature from rare mutants of the Japanese brown frog, or Rena japonica, whose backs are usually ochre or brown.

Two kinds of recessive genes have been known to cause the frog to be pale.

Sumida's team crossed two frogs with recessive genes through artificial insemination and the offspring looked normal due to the presence of more powerful genes. But crossing the offspring led to a frog whose skin is transparent from the tadpole stage.

"You can see dramatic changes of organs when tadpoles mutate into frogs," said Sumida, whose team is seeking a patent.

Such frogs could theoretically exist in the wild but it is "virtually impossible" they would naturally inherit so many recessive genes, Sumida said.

The transparent frogs can also reproduce, with their offspring inheriting their parents' traits, but their grandchildren die shortly after birth.

"As they have two sets of recessive genes, something wrong must kick in and kill them," Sumida said.

While the researchers relied on artificial insemination, they said that genetic engineering could also produce transparent and even illuminating frogs.

Sumida said researchers could also inject into the transparent frogs an illuminating protein attached to a gene, which would light up the gene once it manifests -- for example, showing at what stage cancer starts.

Sumida said it would be unrealistic to apply the same method to mammals such as mice as their skin structure is different. by Miwa Suzuki Thu Sep 27, 3:24 AM ET
