The Walking Dead


When the dead attack the living,

there are no easy choices
Publisher: Telltale Games
Developer: Telltale Games

Surviving is one thing, but living with yourself is another in Telltale Game’s The Walking Dead. Its survivors skirt around the comic and television series, telling a new story of the zombie apocalypse come to Georgia. A smattering of adventure game puzzles and action segments bow to its adaptive narrative—this game is all about making choices. Characters live and die by your words and actions; who appears and what happens in each episode depends on who you help and who you forsake. It’s up to you to decide what’s most important, but remember, a little girl is watching and learning about how to live in the new world.

Payday 2


Pull off the perfect heist

Publisher: 505 Games
Developer: Overkill Software

A good heist needs a bit of planning, plenty of communication, and a touch of intimidation to end with duffel bags full of cash. A bad heist just needs ample ammunition and body bags to clean up the mess. Robbing a well-secured institution involves many moving parts—not just squirming hostages. Keep in mind that Payday 2’s extended scenarios track your performance over multi-mission arcs, rewarding your team for precision strikes with less police interference, friendlier criminal cohorts, and more cash.

Kerbal Space


Program Build, fly, and watch the fiery demise of custom rockets

Publisher: Squad
Developer: Squad

Ever looked at a space shuttle and thought, “I could do better?” Well, it’s time to put your rocket science where your mouth is, buddy, because Kerbal Space Program is all about putting adorable little green dudes on the moon. Or at least in orbit. Or at least somewhere above the... oh, nope, they just crashed into a plume of fire and broken dreams again. KSP is goofy and challenging; chances are, you’ll fail dozens of times before finally building a space-worthy rocket. But that doesn’t mean you won’t feel like Neil Armstrong and Elon Musk rolled into one when your Kerbal crew leaves its first boot prints on an alien world.

Amnesia:  The Dark Descent


Hide for your life and sanity

Publisher: Frictional Games
Developr: Frictional Games

There are jump scares, and then there are dark, quiet horrors that tie stomachs in knots and submerge their sufferers in nauseating suspense. Amnesia: The Dark Descent generally
goes for the latter. Despite inspiring a renaissance of firstperson horror, Amnesia’s penchant for producing boundless dread remains unmatched. Players must balance physical health, mental fortitude, and all-important lantern oil as they explore a dingy castle full of unsettling sights and freakish monsters. Fighting its native horrors is out of the question, so you’d better keep an eye on the nearest closet or dark corner to hide in... and hope you’re alone in there.

Counter-Strike:Global Offensive


An old dog learned some new tricks

Publisher: Valve
Developer: Valve

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive doesn’t fix what isn’t broken. The original CS helped propel competitive PC gaming to its industry-defining state today, so a graphical overhaul, a few
equipment tweaks, and some new modes are more than enough to modernize the lethal classic. Veterans of de_dust and bomb-defusing neophytes alike can find a lot to love in this
update. Classic modes like hostage rescue and bomb defusal remain intact, but an official Gun Game mode (called Arms Race here) should be enough to get anybody on board. Don’t let the terrorists win. Unless you spawn as a terrorist.

Mark of the Ninja


Stylish sidescrolling stealth honed to a shuriken’s edge

Publisher: Microsoft Studios
Developer: Klei Entertainment

When a guard sees his partner strung up from a chandelier just in time for the lights to go out and 180 pounds of ninja to land on his chest, you begin to wonder why stealth sucks so much in every other game. Mark of the Ninja takes the simple act of sneaking around in a 2D environment and builds, polishes, and simplifies until it’s more or less a lifestyle choice.
You don’t have to stay quiet in Mark of the Ninja if its gratuitous combat beckons, but you seldom need to bloody your blade if you prefer wearing the shadows. Whichever path you decide to take, a generous checkpoint system and ample replayability means each scenario can (and should) play out a dozen ways. This is easily one of the best ninja games ever made.

Rogue Legacy


Each ancestor’s grave is just a stepping stone to success

Publisher: Cellar Door Games
Developer: Cellar Door Games

In this brilliant fusion of lethal Castlevania-inspired exploration and persistent RPG advancement, you can get rich and die trying. Every hero that delves into Rogue Legacy’s sidescrolling dungeons will find a treacherous new layout to map and plunder. But death is just an intermission: you can begin again as one of your character’s descendants, who benefits from all the cash, equipment, and abilities his or her forebears found and
purchased. Each descendant has a distinct class and genetic quirks like color blindness or gigantism, so getting to know your new character is almost as fun as exploring the ever-changing environment.

Metro 2033


Post-apocalyptic Moscow’s horrors mostly don’t go in the subway

Publisher: THQ / Deep Silver
Developer: 4A Games

You need to do a few things to survive in the tunnels under Moscow: scavenge everywhere and everything, always keep a few gas mask filters on hand, and try to save the good bullets for special occasions. Metro 2033’s wrecked tunnels and brief, terrifying surface interludes make a unique setting for a grim first-person shooter. Its story of tenuous survival in a nuclear winter (which destroyed the surface world and produced scads of
deadly mutants) is based on a Russian novel, but this ain’t no Tolstoy.

Teleglitch


Build guns and set traps in this top-down shooter roguelike

Publisher: Paradox Interactive
Developer: T3P

Teleglitch looks like Doom fan fiction. Instead of a first-person romp through a moon base, it’s a tense top-down shooter with scarce ammunition and plentiful enemies. Fortunately, your lone survivor is clever, and junk like tin cans and nails can be crafted into deadly weapons. Teleglitch’s randomly generated environments are pixelated, but subtle
perspective shifts and distortion create a surreal sense of motion. Mind your woeful line of sight and you just might make it to the exit.

The Witcher 2:Enhanced Edition
 
Enter a dark and memorable fantasy world

Publisher: Warner Bros. Interactive
Developer: CD Projekt Red

The Witcher series has a complex story with many significant characters and compounding player choices. But main character Geralt of Rivia is an amnesiac, anyway, so it’s not like
anybody can expect you to remember them if you didn’t play the first game. You, on the other hand, will remember The Witcher 2’s intricate towns, deep plotlines, and intense,
fight-for-your-life battles. You’ll also remember how good it is to be a PC gamer when you get all this for just shy of $20.

Raise Your Fitness Game

Raise Your Fitness Game
HIITtraining?That’s so last year. Bikram? Been there, wore the small pants.We asked the experts for the hottest fitness trends of 2014 and howthey’ll transformyour body forever

1. SPEEDFLEX
The new cross training
WHAT IT IS: Fear not. This high-intensity interval training isn’t half as scary as its predecessor. It is based around a free motion bar, where the more force you apply to it, the more resistance you have pushed back against you from the machine. “This form of training reduces micro tearing of the muscles so you don’t get muscle soreness and will still want to train the next day,” says physiotherapist Stuart Ayles. Steady on now.
CALORIE BURN: 800-1,200 per 45-minute session.
GREAT FOR: Arms and overall fitness levels.

2. ESSENTRICS
The new Pilates
WHAT IT IS: It might sound like the latest wigheaded indie band, but Essentrics is, in fact, a Pilatesinspired workout based on stretching muscles before strengthening them in the elongated position to create a longer, leaner, more toned shape. “It makes your waist thinner, stomach flatter, legs leaner and bum more toned. Most people see resultswithin a month,” says celebrity fitness
expert LauraWilliams. Now that’smusic to our ears.
CALORIE BURN: 276 per 30-minute session.
GREAT FOR: Posture and sculpting lean muscle.

3. SOULCYCLE
The new spinning
WHAT IT IS: The wait is over. SoulCycle, a cycling and body-sculpting class, has a cult following in the US and now it’s coming here. As riders mount stationary bikes, the lights are dimmed, candles are lit and the instructor cues a playlist that’s timed to give you motivation and energy just when you need it. “Giving encouragement directly with motivation means you’ll keep going back,” says
David Stalker, CEO of UK Active. Count us in.
CALORIE BURN: 500 per 45-minute session.
GREAT FOR: Thighs, bum and cardio fitness.

4. BOKWA
The new Zumba
WHAT IT IS: If you have two left feet then Bokwa might be the dance workout for you – as long as you knowthe alphabet. The South Africanborn cardio-dance craze focuses on drawing letters
and numbers with your feet. Then you add shoulder shakes, jumps and… well, whatever you want really. “You’ll end up drippingwith sweat by the end, but it doesn’t even feel like exercise because you’re having fun,” says trainer Giancarla Pozzo. Shimmy on down.
CALORIE BURN: 530 per one-hour session.
GREAT FOR: Intense cardio and flexibility.

5. SANDBELLS
The new dumbbells
WHAT IT IS: These neoprene sand-filled weights are a cross between a sandbag, dumbbell, grip bag, medicine ball and kettlebell. In weights from3kg to 12kg, you can slam, smash, drop and throw them – ideal for circuit training. “You get a diferent workout every time and surprising your body boosts weight loss,” says Lee Matthews, head of fitness at Fitness First. Just don’t try ‘smashing’ a kettlebell now.
CALORIE BURN: 300 per one-hour session.
GREAT FOR: Arms and core.

6. AQUA CYCLING
The new aqua aerobics
WHAT IT IS: If you love spin but your joints don’t, there’s a workout that’s just as efective – and kinder to your body. The bikes at aquAllure rest on the pool floor and use waist-high water for resistance. “The low-impact cardio improves aerobic endurance, increases breathing capacity and improves blood flow and flexibility,” says Stalker. Pedal power indeed.
CALORIE BURN: 200 per 30-minute session.
GREAT FOR: Saddlebags.

7. BARRECORE
The new Balletcise
WHAT IT IS: Barrecore is a hybrid of Pilates and ballet, with cardio, light weights, isometric movement and, of course, moves at the barre. “The isometric movement drives insulin into the cells,” says Williams. “It helps your body utilise sugar in your bloodstream instead of storing it as fat.” But it’s not all about weight loss. “Ballet improves posture so your waist looks smaller.” Legwarmers optional.
CALORIE BURN: 500-600 per one-hour session.
GREAT FOR: Bum, core and overall toning.

class – we know your tricks.
CALORIE BURN: 300 per 30-minute session.
GREAT FOR: All-over toning.

9. ANTI-GRAVITY YOGA
The new inverted yoga
WHAT IT IS: It looks like a baby bouncer, but don’t worry, no-one’s going to burp you. In anti-gravity yoga, you use a hammock to do yoga, Pilates and dance moves. Converts, including Gwynnie,
say the technique allows them to get into advanced inverted poses other exercises can’t reach. “AntiGravity yoga relieves compressed joints and aligns the body, so you can stretch further,” says
fitness expert Brett Hoebel. No spitting out your dummy.
CALORIE BURN: 600 calories
per one-hour session.
GREAT FOR: Your back.

The new Bikram

SUP yoga is for all levels, even if you haven’t mastered every pose on dry land. “There’s a calmness to being gently rocked by the water so even though you’re working harder than on a yoga mat you adapt to the board quickly,” says
paddleboard yoga instructor Jana Olenio. Worth checking the shipping forecast first.
CALORIE BURN: 276 per
30-minute session.

What is Coconut Oil?

What is Coconut Oil?
Coconut oil is classified as saturated oil but differs from other saturated fats because of its medium-chain fatty acis composition. The medium-chain-fatty acids (MCFA) are easily digested and broken down to create a healthy digestive system, which enhances the absorption of nutrients and minerals like magnesium, calcium and fat soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) and amino acids (proteins). Coconut oil is considered a "functional food" which means it acids specific bodily functions beyond its nutritional content. Study shows that it prevents stroke and hardening of arteries, detoxifies the liver, improves thyroid health and strengthens the immune system.

Coconut Oil as a Cellular Food
- Consuming food containing coconut oil can provide your cells with quick, easy nourishment. MCFA can give the cells a much needed energy boost, increase metabolism to help it expel toxins and utilize life-giving oxygen to help it perform at top efficiency.
- A healthy cell means a healthy you.
- Once your cells absorb MCFA to produce the energy needed to power biological function, metabolic activity increase, stimulating healing and repair.

Coconut oil as Anti-microbial
- One characteristic of medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) is its ability to kill germs and parasites. The MCT are transformed inside our bodies into monoglyceride of lauric acid (monolaurin) and MCFA, both of which possess powerful anti-microbial properties capable of destroying lipid-coated bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites.
- The lauric acid derivatives is the same lauric acid babies get from mother's milk to keep the infants from getting viral, bacterial or protozoal infections.
- Examples of viruses and bacteria that are inactivated or destroyed are those that cause measles, herpes, HIV, influenza, rubeola, leukemia, streptococcus, listeria and many more.
- Advocates from health sectors call for a study of its potential as a first line of defense against bird flu.

Virgin Coconut Oil "Superior Weapon Against Deadly Cancer"
- It is a sad truth that so many people are afflicted with this fatal disease. Cancer ranks second in the leading cause of death statistics of the United States. It is said that approximately one million people acquire cancer each year.
- But thanks to Virgin Coconut Oil, there is after all a way out of this seemingly hopeless situation.
- Cancer cells keep on growing and dividing and create abnormal cells. Cancer cells may spread and cause problems to other parts of the body. This is triggered by a damage to DNA. Unlike nomal cells, cancer cells cannot repair damaged DNA. Damaged DNA can be acquired through hereditary means or environmental exposure. Most cancers (But not all) are manifested by a tumor.
- The chance of a cancer patient to survive depends largely on how soon the disease was diagnosed and given necessary treatments. Radical change in one's diet and lifestyle is also prescribed.

The Miracle Cure
- Virgin Coconut oil can be uses as a weapon to fight cancer and save precious lives. This statement is proven not only by numerous testimonies of cancer survivors but with the results of medical studies.
- Regular consumption of Virgin Coconut Oil will strengthen the immune system. Only a strong immune system can defeat the formation of cancer cells before they can create major damage. Developing a strong immune system is the first step in prevention and treatment of cancer and other diseases.
- Virgin Coconut Oil can also cure skin cancer as proven in a study where coconut oil is applied on the skin of mice which were applied with cancer causing chemicals.
- Several applications of virgin coconut oil stopped tumor development.
- Therefore, virgin coconut oil can alter the composition of tumor tissue and and thus inhibit tumor growth.

The Virgin Coconut Oil of Youth (Fight Aging Effortlessly!)
- Aging is inevitable. Something we all can't escape. But who wants to grow old? Everybody wants to preserve their is absolutely nothing wrong with that. Aging is all in the mind. Virgin coconut oil is here to let you defy the laws of nature and reverse the passing of time.
- The reason why a lot of people dread old age is the fact that it is associated with a lot of unpleasant things like failing health, memory loss and wrinkles.
- For Some, it  can be a very inconvenient and miserable phase.
- To grow old gracefully, start making necessary changes in your lifestyle now!

Why do You Grow Old?
- Free radicals are the culprit! These are highly reactive molecules missing an electron. In an effort to achieve stability, they steal electrons from other molecules causing other molecules to become free radicals.
- It produces a chain reaction that affects thousands of molecules. Free radicals attack the cells and this may lead to cell mutation and death. Some reseachers consider it as the main cause of aging.
- A lot of diseases are also assocoated with free radicals. To prevent aging and sickness, free radicals should not be permitted to enter our body.
- This however is impossible as it is produced as a part of a normal cellular respiration. Pollutants and other environmental toxins also cause free radicals.
Load Your Body with Antioxidants.
- Antioxidant is your body's natural defense against free radicals. It can stop the chain reaction of free radicals. The amount of antioxidants inside your body depends upon the nutrients we consume.
- However, antioxidants can also be applied on skin to prevent sagging and unsightly wrinkles. If you are already experiencing signs of aging on your skin, chances are the same free radical damage is happening inside your body.
- To prevent premature aging, eat foods rich with vitamins C and E and of course use Virgin Coconut Oil regularly. This will slow down the aging process and will keep you looking and feeling young all over.
- Don't let the years shown on your face. Make your retirement years worthwhile and fulfilling. Use virgin coconut oil!

Lose Weight With Virgin Coconut Oil
Losing hope?
- You have probably tried every diet method there is to shed those extra pounds but it seems like all your efforts are in vain.
- And now just when you are ready to give up, you are about to receive an advice that every nutritionist and dietitian have told you to avoid...eat fat! it may sound ridiculous but the result is far from funny when you use virgin coconut oil.
- There are a number of reasons why you should desire the ideal weight. Aside from the wonders it will do to your physical appearance, being overweight increase your risk to develop a host of diseases.
- If your weight exceeds 20% or more of your ideal weight then you are considered obese. Getting rid of this excess weight is the best gift you can give yourself.

What Makes You Fat?
- You've just finished a whole bag of salty potato chips and drank two bottles of soda. You ordered and extra cup of rice to your dinner or roast pork a while ago. You nearly finishes a whole box of donuts and chocolates.
- And while you are reading this, you are eating ice cream and munching peanuts. If you still have the guts to ask the question, then realized that the things just mentioned are the answers.
- Ideally, you should only consume the amount of food your body needs to produce energy. Eating more than what is necessary will make you bigger. All that extra food you just consumed will be converted into fat and directly goes to fat cells. It produces cellulite which you can now feel around your legs, belly and arms.

How Can Coconut Oil Help Lose Weight?
- The diet using Virgin Coconut Oil is the perfect diet.
- The only one that will allow you to eat fat!
- The fat of Coconut Oil had fewer calories than other fats and promotes good health.
- Unlike other fats, they are not packed into lipoproteins and circulated in the bloodstream.
- The MCFAs are sent directly to the liver and immediately converted to energy. This digestion process speeds up metabolism and will make you lose weight.
- Substitute other vegetables oil with coconut and include it in your daily food intake.
- MC Gill University researchers (based in Canada) discovered that doing this (consuming virgin coconut oil alone) can make you lose up to 36 pounds per year.
- But of course, it doesn't mean that you can overeat. To maintain that healthy figure, combine the use of coconut oil with a balanced diet.

Prevent Autoimmune Diseases with Virgin Coconut Oil
- Crohn's disease, lupus, multiple sclerosis, thyroid problems, and allergies. Wondering what they all have in common?

- Once diagnosed with AIDS, a person is expected to live only for 3 years.
- This virus is usually transferred through sexual intercouse, sharing of needles, or any other blood exchange.
- A MOTHER WITH hiv can also transmit the virus to her unborn child.

The Search for Cure
- It was in the 1980's when the ability of medium chain fatty acids like capric and lauric to fight HIV was first discovered.
- Antiviral drugs that are currently being prescribed fail to save lives and restore the health of Aids victim.
- Aside from the fact that the virus can develop resistance to these drugs, it also has lots of adverse side effects.
- Medium chain fatty acids is said to be a more effective cure as it attacks the virus in a different way than other drugs.
- Instead of targeting the genetic material of the virus, MCFA's simply breaks the virus apart. The absorption of MCFAs by the virus weakens the lipid membrane of the virus and will eventually kill the virus.
- This mechanism of action makes it almost impossible for the virus to develop resistant strain to MCFAs.
- Dr. Conrado Dayrit, a medical doctor from the philippines did the first study on coconut oil for treating AIDS patients.
- His study tested the effect of monolaurin and coconut oil in 14 HIV patients, ages ranging from 22-38
- Four grams of monolaurin a day was given to four patients while five of them received 7.2 grams of monolaurin.
- The last group was given 3 1/2 tablespoons of coconut oil per day.
- At the end of the study (six months) the viral count of nine patients decreased.
- Two of them were from the first group, four from the second, and three from the third group.
- Eleven of them showed health improvements.
- This research proves that monolaurin and coconut oil can be used to treat Aids patients.

To prevent rancidity early you need to store it in a cool place, away from light and heat sources.Grapeseed oil are attributed to cholesterol-lowering properties.

Essential oils: how to use them and where they came from?
As we know in a product that meets and usually with a good Inci what a heavenly scent will find that it will not be nothing synthetic, but essential oils. Have you ever stopped to wonder what they are and where they come from?
This evidently is supposed, even without knowing anything, is that they are natural, but they are very concentrated, so use with caution here, and some are even advised if you are pregnant, nursing or children under 12 years.
That said allarmiamoci not, but Let us be aware of: essential oils are extracted from plants, leaves, stems and flowers as early as 4000 years ago ', so is dating one of the oldest laboratories found by archaeologists near Cyprus.
They are useful in cosmetic preparations DIY, in foot baths or baths in natural environments fresheners or candles, candy or sweets, and again, coming to our limbic system, help to acquire relaxation phases or solving problems of insomnia.
But what are they?
Are complex mixtures of organic substances of different chemical nature, extracted from plant material; liquid oily substances are lipophilic with high volatility and perfumed like plants from which they are derived.
Are usually immiscible in water and soluble in organic solvents instead as alcohol.
But how do you get?
The main methods are pressing, extraction with fats, the extraction with volatile solvents and finally the distillation for extraction with supercritical fluids.
One most commonly used, although give a less valuable to the product obtained, is the distillation in steam current which, however, in contrast, allows a higher speed of the process and a reduced use of steam.
The technique rather than produce a better final product is certainly that extraction by CO2 used for example in obtaining extracts such as vanilla, cinnamon or cloves.
In the vapor stream is the force of the steam that is created within the system that carries out all the work: the cellular membranes of the flowers, swollen with water vapor break pouring so the substances contained in them, oils precisely, in the water vapor . The vapor then condenses, droplet after droplet door inside the container at the end of the circuit such oily substances causes it to "float" on the water in the container.
At the end what you will get will be a solution of water insoluble and oil in suspension to which will then be necessary to follow a series of additional steps required to obtain the final product as we all know.
The oils are natural and also very expensive because this serve up to 200kg of flowers to obtain 1 liter of essential oil, variable quantity depending on whether you use leaves, flowers, bark, or, depending of the botanical species in question and depending on the extraction method used.
Some oils are very useful to Tea tree also called malaleuca or medical plant, antibacterial and antifungal natural to lavender, with a strong sedative power, the power of mint with the opposite hand, energizing or cypress, by the strong anti-cellulite.
Finally, how can we forget that a good perfume unique and natural at the end only a few drops of essential oils carefully chosen placed in alcohol and then in water.


Cosmetics: marine ingredients in increase to the detriment of the ecosystem

The beauty secrets of the moment would result from the use of shells, fish and fish eggs, shells, plants coast, sea mud, algae and minerals, which are used for the construction of the formulations of creams "miraculous."
Attention, therefore, the power of marketing related to beauty products. Compounds in cosmetics with ingredients of marine origin may not be present really effective ingredients, such as shark cartilage, which, in addition to cosmetic properties, were attributed anti-cancer properties, not related to a real beneficial effect, but to a ride billionaire businessman.
The massive use of ingredients in cosmetics from the coasts and waters of seas and oceans unfortunately risks jeopardizing their delicate ecosystem. The cosmetics industry, having identified this new direction for the manufacture of its products, however, would not give it up, which is why some of them have decided to turn to methods suitable for marine ingredients they need.
According to the study by Organic Monitor report, the cosmetics industry is more careful they would be already turning to alternative producers of marine ingredients, derived from farming systems and aquaculture. However, it remains to understand if what has been obtained by such systems is to be considered truly effective and does not give rise to cosmetic products actually very little performance, but simply unable to attract the public and easy to sell.
Due to the growing demand from the cosmetics ingredients of marine origin, a new focus on the supply of these resources has been raised worldwide, so much so that on 21 November in Paris will be discussed at the Forum for Sustainability in Cosmetics, which will focus on the environmental implications of the use of ingredients of marine origin and best practices implemented by companies more careful.
Some of them, for example, can make use of algae created in the laboratory, as already occurred in the United States, a practice which allows to avoid the removal of the same from the seabed, obtaining algae rich in vitamins and minerals, suitable to be used by the cosmetics industry, which is hoped to embark on a path that is truly sustainable and environmentally friendly.
