TIPS: 5 tips for summer fun
Let’s face it summer wouldn’t be summer without the smell of sunscreen, salt air, beaches, BBQs and the indescribable scent of sunshine and warmth. But how do we make sure we take care of our health and wellbeing during this energetic time?
Because let’s not pretend here, summer can also be a time for overindulging, sunburnt skin and sheer exhaustion!
We have a few simple tips to keep you on top so you can truly enjoy every bit of good summer fun!
Tip One: Water is Your FriendDrink plenty of water.
On average we need 8 glasses a day. When it is hot or you’re exercising chances are your body will need more like 10-12 glasses. Carry your water bottle everywhere you go.
Tip Two: Keep it FreshEat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.
Summer is the perfect time for eating lightly. Take advantage of all the gorgeous berries on your cereal or with yoghurt as a dessert. Salads are the ultimate so create a masterpiece and add your protein with fish, chicken, cheese or eggs.
Tip Three: Don’t Forget SunscreenUse a natural high quality sunscreen.
Protect your skin with a sunscreen that not only shields you from the sun’s rays but also contains no harmful ingredients.
Tip Four: Get BusyGet into it! Exercise and take part.
Go for walks after the evening meal, get into the backyard for a bit of cricket, swingball or get down to the beach or into the pool and have a swim! The body releases feel good endorphins when exercising and there is less chance of wanting to fill it with poor food choices if you do. Take a good quality anti-oxidant to help the body recover from exercise and repair sun damaged skin.
Tip Five: Stay SmilingSunshine makes you smile. Enjoy it.
Live in the moment and embrace a good healthy attitude - regardless of what is presented to you. Take care of yourself, your friends and family over this relaxed time. Treat your body and skin with the utmost respect – indulge, pamper and enjoy! Most importantly, make the most of the warmer weather and have a good break from the stresses of everyday life – you deserve it.

FACTS: HOW *blablabla* is the sun?
Q: How big is the Sun?
A: The Sun is HUGE!
Even though it looks small in the sky it is actually bigger than you might imagine. It only looks small because it is 93 million miles away. (That's about 150 million km.) The Earth is very tiny compared to the Sun. In fact, if you think of the Sun as a basketball, the Earth would only be the size of the head of a pin -- a mere speck. The Earth is about 13 thousand kilometers (8000 miles) wide, whereas the Sun is roughly 1.4 million kilometers (900,000 miles) across. This means it would take more than 100 Earths to span the width of the Sun! If the Sun were a hollow ball, you could fit about one million Earths inside of it!
Q: How far away is the Sun?
A: The Sun is very FAR from Earth
In fact, it is 93 million miles away. (That's about 150 million km.) If the Sun were the size of a basketball, and Earth the size of the head of a pin, the basketball and the pin would be separated by about 100 feet -- a third of a football field (30.5 meters). If you were standing at the basketball (and didn't have a telescope to help you), you wouldn't even be able to see the pinhead Earth.
Another way to understand the distance is to think of driving to the Sun in a car. If you actually could do this, and drove really fast, say 60 miles an hour (80 km/hr), it would take you 176 years to get there! Light from the Sun takes about 8 minutes to reach the Earth. If you understand how fast light travels, you can recognize that the Sun must be very far away.
Q: How heavy is the Sun?
A:...
Although we cannot actually weigh the Sun with a scale, we can compute its weight by studying the way it affects other objects, like the Earth. We do know that it contains virtually all the mass in our solar system! We can also understand this better by making some comparisons. Since the Sun is so much more massive than the Earth (over 300,000 times heavier) its gravitational pull is also much larger. A child that weighs 75 pounds on Earth would weigh about a ton on the Sun. The weight increases by a factor of 30. (Of course, we cannot really stand on the Sun, for it is too hot and has no solid surface
Q: How old is the Sun?
A: The Sun is about 4 1/2 billion years old.
Humans have only been around for a tiny, tiny fraction of this time. As a comparison, if you think of 4.5 billion years as the length of a 12 inch ruler, then the time humans have existed wouldn't even be the width of the lines marking the inches. (Metric equivalent is 30.5cm and it would still be just the width of the markings.)
The Sun will remain more or less the way it is now for about another 5 billion years. After that, it will exhaust the hydrogen it currently "burns" and will enter a new phase of existence. During this phase the Sun will begin "burning" helium and will expand to about 100 times its current size and become what is called a red giant. Once it runs out of helium it will collapse into a much smaller object called a white dwarf.
Q: How hot is the Sun?
A: The Sun is extremely HOT!
The middle of the Sun is at least 10 million degrees. The "surface" of the Sun (what we see) is only 5800 degrees. This is cool for the Sun, but is actually about 16 times hotter than boiling water (ouch!). The outer atmosphere of the Sun (which we don't really see with our eyes) gets extremely hot again, about 1.5 to 2 million degrees. These huge temperature changes are very interesting to scientists.
FACTS: What is the sun?
Believe it or not, the Sun is just a star, just like those we see twinkling at night.The Sun, however, is so much closer to us on Earth that it looks much bigger, much brighter, and we can even feel heat coming from it.
Scientists know great deal about the stars that shine at night. Compared to these other stars, the Sun is actually quite average. Many of the stars that appear so small in the night sky are actually much bigger than our Sun. Others, however, are quite tiny in comparison. Some are much hotter, and some are so cool and dim we can barely see them. But for us on Earth, the Sun is just right!

"I am sure the mascots and their names will become a vital part of the understanding of the whole event," said Christian Mutschler, who is the tournament director for Switzerland"
FACTS: Goodbye sunshine
Each year less light reaches the surface of the Earth.
No one is sure what's causing 'global dimming' - or what it means for the future. In fact most scientists have never heard of it.
By David Adam (guardian.co.uk)
In 1985, a geography researcher called Atsumu Ohmura at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology got the shock of his life. As part of his studies into climate and atmospheric radiation, Ohmura was checking levels of sunlight recorded around Europe when he made an astonishing discovery. It was too dark. Compared to similar measurements recorded by his predecessors in the 1960s, Ohmura's results suggested that levels of solar radiation striking the Earth's surface had declined by more than 10% in three decades. Sunshine, it seemed, was on the way out.
The finding went against all scientific thinking.
By the mid-80s there was undeniable evidence that our planet was getting hotter, so the idea of reduced solar radiation - the Earth's only external source of heat - just didn't fit. And a massive 10% shift in only 30 years? Ohmura himself had a hard time accepting it. "I was shocked. The difference was so big that I just could not believe it," he says. Neither could anyone else. When Ohmura eventually published his discovery in 1989 the science world was distinctly unimpressed. "It was ignored," he says. It turns out that Ohmura was the first to document a dramatic effect that scientists are now calling "global dimming".
Records show that over the past 50 years the average amount of sunlight reaching the ground has gone down by almost 3% a decade.
It's too small an effect to see with the naked eye, but it has implications for everything from climate change to solar power and even the future sustainability of plant photosynthesis. In fact, global dimming seems to be so important that you're probably wondering why you've never heard of it before. Well don't worry, you're in good company.
Many climate experts haven't heard of it either, the media has not picked up on it, and it doesn't even appear in the reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

* Girls are time and money: girls = time * money;
but, time is money: time = money;
which implies: girls = money * money;
which implies: girls = money^2;
but, money is the root of all evil: money = (all evil) ^1/2;which implies: money^2 = all evil;
therefore, all girls are evil: girls = all evil.
That's above only one from million summer jokes
