Attention- Beyond this point you may see NUDE Bathers-Haulover Beach, Miami, Florida


    ATTENTION : BEYOND THIS POINT, YOU MAY SEE NUDE BATHERS


Are you getting ready for your last beach blowout of the weekend this upcoming Labor Day? So excited you’re already packing? Suntan lotion. Check. Sunglasses. Check. Umbrella. Check. Beach blanket check. Cooler with beer and other necessary provisions. Check. Bathing suit? You’re not going to need that where you’re going!
South Beach, Virginia Beach, South Padre Island, and Malibu may be great places for many, but they don’t offer what you need – nude sunbathing and/or swimming. Besides, who wants to deal with the insane crowds and traffic. You not only seek to “get away from it all,” you want to “take it all off.”
While you may think this requires dusting off your passport and wondering if three days is enough for a jaunt on a European riviera or the Brazilian coast, many opportunities to beach bathe in the nude exist in the United States. And not just in Florida, the nudist resort capital of the country, due to its hefty older population and um, warm weather.

Part of the larger Haulover Beach Park, Haulover Beach is a rarity in the U.S. in that it’s a government-run clothing-optional beach. The clean beach features lifeguards, public restrooms and changing rooms and concessions. There’s also an unobtrusive police patrol, although the beach-goers tend to self-police and look out for each other as well. The beach can see as many as 7,000 visitors a day from all over the world and from every walk of life, and it’s consistently named one of the best nudist beaches in the world due to its pristine white sand, year-round perfect weather and family friendly, safe atmosphere.

7 Things You Do In Your Sleep









1. Roam the House
Sleepwalking is one of the prototypical parasomnias that occur during non-REM sleep, says Gehrman. "One of the common misconceptions about sleepwalkers is that they're acting out their dreams." But because sleepwalking occurs during that deep Stage 3 sleep, it's not associated with dreaming. Because of this, it may be tough to wake or redirect a sleepwalker—and they might become agitated—but it's unlikely that the situation will turn dangerous.But the consequences the next day could be more serious: A 2013 study published in the journal Sleep found that adult sleepwalkers had a higher frequency of daytime sleepiness, fatigue, insomnia, and anxiety symptoms than those who stayed tucked into bed.
2. Talk or Scream
Sleepwalking and sleep-talking are very common in kids, and episodes usually end around puberty, says Gehrman. Night terrors—when you sit up in bed screaming or yelling—is also often seen in children. "Night terrors are activations of the fear response during sleep," he explains. "Kids may sit up in bed with their eyes wide open, but they're actually fast asleep." Perhaps not surprisingly, studies have shown that children who have been bullied are more likely to suffer night terrors by the age of 12. And these events aren't unique to kids: According to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, 6.5% of children and 2.2% of adults experience them.
Night terrors are often mistaken for nightmares; the difference is that nightmares occur during REM sleep when the brain is more active, and people generally remember them the next day, while night terrors happen during Stage 3 sleep and people have no memory of them when they wake up.
3. Send Text Messages
Sending text messages while sleeping may seem strange, but it not surprising considering the number of people who snooze right next to their phones. One survey from Villanova University found that out of 300 students, 25 to 35% had sent text messages while they were asleep. This non-REM parasomnia is harmless—but it could be embarrassing.
4. Drive
A few non-REM parasomnias can be dangerous, and they usually happen when sleepwalkers leave their house. "I recently had a patient with RLS who was treated with Ambien," says Michael Howell, MD, associate professor in the department of neurology at the University of Minnesota. "The first night he took the medication he drove in his sleep and woke up in a snow bank after plowing his car into a tree."
Taking a sleeping pill like Ambien can contribute to non-REM parasomnias, because, according to Howell, the drug will keep you asleep even when your body knows it should be awake. A better solution might be getting to the root of the problem. According to Howell, depending on the severity of RLS—which is a movement disorder associated with a creepy-crawly sensation in your legs that makes it hard to sleep—it can be treated with exercise and diet, iron pills, or medications.
5. Prepare and Eat Food
"I know of a woman who used to go to the kitchen in the middle of the night and eat raw onions like they were apples," says Gehrman. "She'd wake up with bad breath and have no idea what had happened." Because it occurs during deep Stage 3 sleep, sleep-eating also falls under the category of non-REM parasomnia. As for who's likely to chow down in the middle of the night, some evidence shows that people on restricted diets are more likely to sleep-eat. And Howell confirms that it's mostly highly caloric foods that sleep-eaters make a beeline for, but they'll often eat non-nutritious substances, too. They may chew ice or, "we see people put butter on cigarettes and eat them." Not surprisingly, sleep-eating can cause weight gain, dental problems, or injuries from preparing the food.
6. Have Sex
Sexsomnia, or "sleep sex" is another example of a non-REM parasomnia, and it includes intercourse, masturbation, and groping. According to research from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, sexsomnia was reported by almost 8% of patients at a sleep disorders clinic, and is nearly three times more prevalent in men than in women. "I think that sleep related sexual activity is far more common than people realize," says Howell. "It's not really information that people volunteer," but, he notes, when he presses patients who have displayed other non-REM parasomnias on the topic, they'll usually admit that they've done it.
7. Act Out Their Dreams
This is where sleep behaviors can get dangerous. Normally during REM sleep—the stage of sleep when we do the most active dreaming—our muscles are paralyzed, which is thought to protect us from acting out our dreams. But in some cases, there's a failure of paralysis, so people do act out their dreams—and that's called REM behavior disorder. According to The National Sleep Foundation, these types of episodes usually occur in men over the age of 50, but can happen to anyone, especially people taking sleeping pills or antidepressants.
While the other non-REM parasomnias can be a nuisance, REM behavior disorder can actually be harmful because sleepers can hurt themselves or their bed partner. For example, a common dream is that you're being chased or attacked, so people might wake up choking whomever is sleeping next to them. "I had a patient who was dreaming he was playing basketball and was clutching the ball," says Howell, "Except that he was really gripping his wife's head." Howell has also treated a patient who dreamed he was Spiderman and tried to leap out the window, and has seen many other examples of sports-related dreams, such as when the dreamer will slide into a piece of bedroom furniture, thinking it's home base

HOW TO USE DSLR CAMERA- A BIGGINER GUIDE


A BEGINNER’S GUIDE TO YOUR DSLR CAMERA


Let’s start with some vocabulary.
DSLR stands for digital single-lens reflex camera.  Basically, this means that when you use the viewfinder on your DSLR, you are seeing through the camera’s lens (by way of a mirror).  Many DSLR’s now allow you to use the LCD screen to frame your shots, but I highly prefer to use the viewfinder.
Shutter speed – How fast the camera’s shutter opens and closes to let in light.  This is measured in a fraction of a second.  1/15 = one fifteenth of a second, etc.
Aperture (f stop) – How wide the shutter opens.  The aperture controls how much of the photo is in focus. The lower the f stop number, the more light the sensor will receive.  The picture will be brighter, but a smaller area will be in sharp focus.  The higher the f stop, the more area will be in focus.
Shutter speed and aperture work hand-in-hand.  They both control how much light the camera’s sensor receives, but in different ways.
ISO – How much light the sensor absorbs.  A higher ISO setting will allow the camera’s sensor to absorb more light, thus allowing you to get away with a higher shutter speed.  However, the higher the ISO, the more grainy the picture will appear, especially if you plan to crop the photo.
Your camera’s modes will depend on which model you have, but here are the basic ones:
Tv mode – Time value.  You choose the shutter speed, the camera sets the other values to “match.”
Av mode – Aperture value.  You choose the aperture, the camera sets the other values to “match.”
M mode – Manual mode.  You choose it all!
Here’s an example of how aperture and shutter speed work:
This photo was shot with a shutter speed of 1/40 and an aperture of f = 4.5.  The shutter speed was too fast for the amount of light in the room, so the photo is too dark.
Getting Started with Your DSLR
This photo has the same aperture, but I slowed the shutter speed down to 1/8.  The photo is brighter, but since the shutter was open longer, the subject needed to hold still longer.  Hard to do with kids, hence the blurry hand!
Getting Started with Your DSLR
Your DLSR is heavily dependent on your lighting, especially when taking photographs of kids.  The first two photos were taken using the overhead room light.  This next photo was taken in front of a window on a bright sunny day, so the light is natural and pleasant.  The f stop is 1.8 (shutter open very wide, less area in sharp focus) and the shutter speed was 1/30.
Getting Started with Your DSLR
The type of lens you use can make a big difference in the quality of your photos as well.  Last year, I received a 50 mm fixed focal length lens for Christmas.  This lens allows me to use a low aperture (down to f stop 1.4) which creates a very sharp (but small) area of focus and a nice artistic looking blurry background.  The other morning, I shot this photo of Janie dressed up for church:
Getting Started with Your DSLR
The combination of this lens (often referred to as a portrait lens) and wonderful natural light from the windows in our game room allowed me to get some fantastic shots.  Notice how the focus is on her eyes, and the background is nicely blurred.
Getting Started with Your DSLR
But what about less-than-ideal photo situations?
We had one of those this past week.  Jordan’s sister and her family were in town, and we had a precious day together – and one shot to get pictures of all the cousins together.  The light in our living room was poor (the overhead light makes photos look very orange, which can be corrected to some degree by changing the white balance from “auto” to “tungsten lighting”) and we do not have windows in that room that face toward the sun.  Plus, we had 7 kids to photograph, and it was next to impossible to get them all to stand still at the same time!
I managed to pull off this photo with a f stop of 4.5 and a shutter speed of 1/25.  A faster shutter speed would have been better, but this was not possible with the amount of light in the room (unless I used the flash).
I sharpened this photo slightly using picmonkey.
Getting Started with Your DSLR
For gift opening, I gave up on not using the flash!  My best photos were in Tv mode (shutter mode) with a shutter speed of 1/50 or 1/60 and the flash ON.
Bad photo: (too blurry because the shutter speed was not fast enough)
Getting Started with Your DSLR
Good photo:

If you must use the flash, turning up the ISO speed will increase the range of the flash, which helps to eliminate the dark background.

This also allows you to use a higher shutter speed, which means a sharper image.  The downside is increased grain to the picture.  For example, here is a picture with a shutter speed of 1/50, aperture of 4.5, and ISO at 100.
How to take better pictures with your DSLR
This one is the same settings (1/50 and 4.5) with ISO at 800.  I also did some editing – brightened slightly, color temperature adjusted – cooler, and photo sharpened.
How to take better photos with your DSLR
But the best photos are still the ones with natural light.  Not direct sunlight, but good ambient light.

How to take better photos with your dslt
To wrap up, here are some troubleshooting tips:
  • Too blurry?  Increase the shutter speed.  A shutter speed of at least 1/125 is ideal for sharp photos.  If you must use a slower shutter speed because of lighting, ask your kids to “freeze!” or use a tripod.  UPDATE:  I upgraded cameras to a Canon 6D, and I am LOVING the higher shutter speeds!  Because this camera has a larger sensor, I can take pictures in low light with a much faster shutter speed than my old camera.  This makes a huge difference, especially indoors.
  • Too dark?  Slow down the shutter speed or lower the f stop number (aperture).  OR, move near a window, open the blinds, or go outside.
  • Increase the ISO to compensate for low light.  How high?  I think it depends on the camera.  My camera gets grainy at 800 and noticeable grainy at 1600.  However, I’ve heard from friends that a better camera can handle a much higher ISO setting without causing a grainy picture.  UPDATE:  My new Canon 6D can go up to an ISO setting of 12,800 without grain.
  • Avoid taking photos in direct sunlight during the brightest part of the day.  You will end up with harsh shadows on faces, and squinting kids.  An hour after sunrise or an hour before sunset is really ideal for the portrait look you see on Pinterest.
  • Check out this post on Click it Up a Notch for tips on shooting in manual mode.  I love shooting in manual mode!  This article was so helpful for making the switch.
  • Make sure your subject is facing the source of light.

CHEST EXCERSICE FOR MEN


Chest Exercises For Men

The best chest exercises for MEN focus on growing chest muscle as quickly and efficiently as possible and at the same time, widening the chest to give you that unstoppable masculine look.
When it comes to burning chest fat and losing man boobs, while at the same time, growing muscle and sculpting an unstoppable masculine chest, this one exercise is perhaps the best I’ve ever known. It’s far better than bench presses, pushups, cable crossovers, dumbbell flys and the like.
I was first convinced about using this exercise when I learned about a guy called Vince Gironda. Now let me tell you a little about Vince. Vince was a bodybuilding legend. He was known as the ‘Iron Guru’, and known for getting his clients big and ripped in record time.
For 50 years, Vince trained more champion physique competitors than anyone in the business. He trained some of the most famous bodybuilders, as well as some of the world’s best actors and actresses. He was also known to get great results with regular joes like you and me.
Vince was the “go-to” guy for absolutely anyone who wanted to get into shape. Now you could argue that there were and are plenty of other guys around who know a lot about training, but Vince was different.
Back in the day, Vince came up with a lot of weird and controversial ideas about exercise and nutrition, a lot of people thought he was crazy and avoided taking his advice, or even going to his gym. But what we’re finding now, is that new scientific research is showing us that Vince was right all along!
One of Vince’s most controversial ideas was that the bench press is a poor exercise for the chest. In fact, he threw out all the benches in his gym and replaced them with dipping stations. Vince believed that when it comes to developing the chest, the chest dip is a far superior exercise to the bench press, and guess what? Electromyogram (EMG) studies today, reveal that he was right!

Chest Dips

If you could do just one chest exercise to carve out a set of pecs that you see on the statue of a Greek god, the Hulk or a mythological beast, it would be chest dips. Not the bench press, not pushups, and certainly not dumbbell flys.
Chest dips work the entire upper body, and really give you that hormonal boost you need to grow muscle, tone your chest and lose those man boobs. They work your arms, your shoulders, your chest and your upper back.



Chest dips are a powerful exercise for building a muscular chest. They also work your entire upper body including your back, arms and shoulders.
When it comes to both performance and sculpting your body through muscle-growth and hormonal stimulation, bodyweight exercises always come on top. This is largely because unlike weight-training, which tends to isolate one particular body-part, bodyweight exercises require you to stabilize your entire body as it moves through space.
When you use your core stabilizers and other muscles throughout your body, not only do you get a bigger testosterone boost from the workout, you also lose more fat, and gain a more even distribution of muscle throughout the body, which means better posture, less injuries and a better more attractive appearance.
Since most guys rely almost completely on the bench press for building chest muscle, let’s discuss…

Why Dips Are FAR Better Than The Bench Press For Building A Hurculean Chest

Disadvantages Of The Bench Press

1. A Poor Exercise For The Chest
Now don’t get me wrong, many bodybuilders DO use the bench press to build some huge muscles. But did you ever stop to think how many people fail with the bench press? Almost every guy who goes to the gym spends time on the bench press – but how many of these guys end up getting a huge, wide, stone-slab-like chest that gets women weak at the knees?
See, the trouble with the bench press is that it is more an exercise for the front deltoids of your shoulders, than it is an exercise for the chest. EMG studies reveal that the front deltoids receive the same stimulation as the pectoralis major of the chest during the flat bench press.


The front deltoids are very small in comparison to the pectoralis major muscle of the chest.
Since the front deltoids are a very small muscle compared to the huge pectoralis major of the chest, it stands to reason that during the bench press the deltoids of your shoulders will fatigue way before your chest even starts to get a proper workout. As a result you will end your workout before fully involving your chest.
2. The Most Common Cause Of Shoulder Injuries In The Gym
Due to the rising popularity of the bench press, rotator cuff surgery is at an all time high.
The bench press places too much strain on the rotator cuff muscles of the shoulders, and very commonly leads to injury, damage and wear & tear of the rotator cuff over time.
For this reason, the bench press is widely reported as being the most common cause of shoulder injuries in the gym.
3. Kills Shoulder Flexibility, Leading To More Injuries
The bench press kills shoulder flexibility. The massive strain on your shoulders from this exercise makes your rotator cuff muscles tighter and tighter over time. The first sign of this is when you start to find it difficult to reach behind your back as if to do up a bra (not that I have ever tried one on, but you know what I mean ðŸ˜‰ ).
Contrary to popular belief, it isn’t having big muscles that makes you inflexible, but rather, incorrect training. If you have read ‘Stretching Scientifically’ by Thomas Kurz, you’ll know that big muscles actually make you MORE flexible.
4. Torn Pecs (Pectoralis Major Rupture)
Yet another common injury with the bench press. Here’s a video of a guy tearing his left pec during a set of bench presses. Warning: this video is NOT for the faint hearted.
Watch as this guy tears his left pec with the bench press… Youuch!
With this injury, the tendon that attaches your pectoralis major muscle to your upper arm bone, is torn right off the bone. It can be extremely painful and in most cases requires surgical repair. It will take many months before you are lifting anything again.

Advantages Of Dips For Developing The Chest

1. Faster And Better Development Of The Chest
When doing dips, you are moving your arms in a downward motion. This downward motion ensures that you bypass the shoulders and isolate the chest muscles far better than any other compound exercise for the chest. Although your shoulders are still involved to a large extent and get an excellent workout, they are not as engaged and overloaded as they are during the bench press.
Studies have shown that the deltoids are much less involved during the decline bench press, compared to the horizontal bench press. Since chest dips are a bodyweight variation of the decline bench press, this means that more focus is placed on the chest than on the shoulders while doing dips compared to the bench press.
Wide Chest

Chest dips give you wider chest development than the bench press.
2. Wider Chest Development
I’ve seen guys with 6-pack abs who look like scrawny wimps when they have a shirt on. The key to looking like an unstoppable alpha-male is to work on widening that upper body, namely your chest and upper back.
Chest dips performed with a wide grip and the elbows flared to the sides, target the outer chest better than pushups, bench presses, or any other exercise for that matter. In doing so, they give you that huge, wide chest that resembles a set of stone slabs set on your chest sideways.
This is yet another reason why chest dips are one of the most powerful chest exercises you can do.
3. Increased Shoulder Flexibility
At the bottom of the movement your shoulder muscles are both strengthened and stretched, giving you improved flexibility.
Do be careful however, since if you already have inflexible and/or weak shoulders, you can still suffer shoulder injuries while doing dips, especially with weighted dips. The key is to only go as low as you feel comfortable. Over time, your shoulders will get stronger and you’ll be able to descend write the way down, thereby fully stretching those pecs.
4. Dips Are Functional – They Give You Strength That You Can Use
Dips require you to lift and move your entire body through space. You need to keep your body tight so you maintain your posture, and as a result you not only involve your chest, upper back, shoulders and arms, but also your legs, abdomen and lower back. It is a true whole-body workout that trains your body to function as a unit as opposed to targeting individual sections of the body.
By working your entire body in this way, dips will help you to lose weight, look better and build strength all round. They will help make you a better athlete, better able to handle yourself in a fight, better able to manage your body weight, and even help you bench more.
5. Hormonal Stimulation – Better For Weight Loss And Man Boob Reduction
Because dips engage your entire body, they result in a greater release of testosterone and growth hormone both during and after the workout. Increased levels of these hormones help to reduce man boobs, burn fat and pack on extra muscle.
Boosting the male sex hormone testosterone is particularly important if you want to get a more manly figure. Whether you want to lose man boobs, lean up by torching body fat, grow chest muscle or grow more muscle all over your body, it’s important to ensure you have optimum testosterone levels.

How To Do Chest Dips

Dips can be modified to focus on the triceps, upper back or chest. Here I will tell you how to do chest dips to target the chest.
Place your hands on the handlebars of a dipping station. If you don’t have access to a dipping station, you can also use the tops of two level surfaces at waist height or higher, e.g. two tables, or the back-rests of two chairs. If you are using the chair option, it helps to wear a set of training gloves to take the pressure off your palms.
1.Prop yourself up with your arms straight and your elbows locked out.
2.Bend your knees so your feet are behind you. This helps to balance your weight as you lean forward. Leaning forward is necessary to target the chest.
Chest Dips Upper
3.Bending at the elbows, lower your body in a slow and controlled fashion, without ever touching your feet or knees to the ground. Breath in while doing this.
4.Stop when your shoulders are level with your elbows, then while breathing out, slowly raise yourself back up to the starting position.
5.Repeat steps 3-4, always making sure to maintain good posture and a forward-leaning position.
