HEALTH IMPORTANT TIPS: LIVER / BRAIN DAMAGE, TOP CANCER CAUSING FOOD

The top five cancer-causing foods are:

1. Hot dogs  Because they are high in nitrates, the Cancer Prevention Coalition advises that children eat no more than 12 hot dogs a month. If you can't live without hot dogs, buy those made without sodium nitrate.  

2. Processed meats and bacon Also high in the same sodium nitrates found in hot dogs, bacon, and other processed meats raise the risk of heart disease. The saturated fat in bacon also contributes to cancer.  

3. Doughnuts Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble. First, they are made with white flour, sugar, and hydrogenated oils, then fried at high temperatures. Doughnuts, says Adams , may be the worst food you can possibly eat to raise your risk of cancer.  

4. French fries Like doughnuts, French fries are made with hydrogenated oils and then fried at high temperatures. They also contain cancer- causing acryl amides which occur during the frying process. They should be called cancer fries, not French fries, said Adams .   

5. Chips, crackers, and cookies All are usually made with white flour and sugar. Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of trans-fats generally contain small amounts of trans-fats.

5 NEW YEAR'S CAREER RESOLUTIONS FOR 2011

There's just something about opening a calendar for a new year that inspires us to improve our lives. So it's no surprise that New Year's career resolutions often focus on big goals--such as a promotion or a new job.

And that's why many resolutions get tossed aside by the second week in January, according to Tracy Brisson, founder and CEO of The Opportunities Project. "We get overwhelmed when we realize that outcomes are not always in our control," she explains. But Brisson says that there are plenty of attainable goals--such as adding people to your network or committing to read one business-related book per month--that can add up to career success.

SALARY SECRETS YOUR EMPLOYER DOESN'T WANT YOU TO KNOW

In down economic times, companies seem to have carte blanche to limit salaries and make low-ball offers. But that shouldn't be the case.

Below are the top salary secrets your employer doesn't want you to know. With this information in hand, you'll be in a better position to get the pay you deserve.

Employers don't always offer a fair salary

Some employers think they're being fair, but they're not up-to-date with the latest salary information. Others may try to pay less than the market value because they're financially strapped. That's why it's important that you know exactly how much money you should be making. A free salary report can help you calculate how much you should be earning in any job.

You can negotiate your salary in a tight job market

In a recession, many people would rather take a pay cut than lose their jobs. Raises are hard to come by and new hires may feel they have less negotiating power. But that doesn't mean it's impossible to bump up your salary; it's just a little more challenging.

30112010 YOU & The LAW (KSA / KUWAIT / QATAR / UAE)

KSA – I have been working for a company for four years. I want to know how would my end-of-service benefits (ESB) be calculated if I resign now. Secondly, what is the rule for returning to Saudi Arabia to work for another company in the same or a slightly different profession? Is there a need for a no-objection certificate (NOC) for the new visa?

As you have worked here for four years the end of your contract is the expiration date of your work permit, not the period of time written in your contract. Therefore,  for legal termination you must wait until the expiration date of your work visa.

The ESB is calculated on the basis of the last monthly wage (LMW), which is salary plus all other allowances. You get half of your LMW for each of the first five years of your employment. You get a proportional amount of your LMW for any incomplete year.
