In the continuing debate on whether over regulation has the potential to throttle the corporate sector or if businesses will always manage to beat the regulator at ways to skirt the rule book, a perspective from inside the Reserve Bank of India offers an insight into how tough it is to enforce financial regulations in the country.
Speaking at a recent conference on corporate governance in Mumbai, G Padmanabhan, executive director, RBI recounted how companies responded to attempts by the central bank in 2007-08 to tweak the regulatory framework to discourage foreign currency borrowings by companies as a means to contain the rupee volatility.
In the preference hierarchy of capital inflows, equity inflows dominate debt inflows and as such India has a stricter regulatory regime for debt in comparison with equity.
According to Padmanabhan, companies responded by using at least three different ways to try and skirt the regulation.
Some companies issued convertible debentures, which, till 2007, were a permitted instrument for equity investment. But such debentures were structured in such a way that they were predominantly debt rather than equity. As an example, in a convertible debenture of Rs 100, only Rs 10 were convertible to equity on maturity.
Others adopted a slightly more sophisticated approach and issued equities, with a put option at a specified strike price in favour of the investor, thus camouflaging the debt nature of the instrument.
As an example, suppose an equity instrument valued at Rs 10 were to be issued with a put option after five years with a strike price of Rs 20. At the appropriate time, the investor exercises the option and sells back these shares at Rs 20 to the issuer, thereby getting a fixed return of close to 15 per cent. The economic essence of the whole transaction is that the company has borrowed the funds at a cost of 15 per cent.
Then there were others who adopted an innovative approach, whereby a company issued a share valued at Rs 10 at a premium of Rs 25,000 and entered into a shareholders agreement promising a guaranteed dividend of 8 per cent on the face value of the share as well as the share premium.
Regulations thus are supposed to modify behaviour of those covered by the regulation and ensure that they behave in a socially desirable way. But whether the regulations will have to be in the nature of a nudge or a

The Bachelorette: Jillian Harris Spruces Up Ed's Condo
September 14, 2009 01:09 PM by Britteny Elrick
Ever since they announced their engagement, Bachelorette couple Jillian Harris and Ed Swiderski have planned on living in Chicago together. Ed, who is originally from the Windy City, already had a bachelor pad of his own – but will that be good enough for his interior designer wife-to-be?Â
Jillian plans on moving into Ed's place by today. According to PEOPLE, Jillian described her fiance's one-bedroom condo as a "total bachelor pad." "When I first saw it, there was a lot of brick and dark brown leather and wood,â€Â she said. "There were socks and underwear lying around the place.â€
So where did Jillian go shopping? "Pottery Barn, Z Gallerie and Bed, Bath and Beyond. I tried to keep it masculine, but I replaced some of his dark brown cushions with some cream and light green to lighten it up a bit.â€
"I liked it,†Ed commented on the new look. "There are things I like but would never go out of my way to shop for like pillows. I just don't do that. But I like it a lot.â€

Apparently there is a huge crack cocaine problem in Toronto. Luckily, it's just confined to the mayor's office.
As I'm sure you're heard by now, the mayor of Toronto, a man named Rob Ford, has admitted to smoking crack cocaine. People should have seen this coming. There were signs, like his campaign slogan: "Just say yes."
I was thinking about Thanksgiving and I realized who we should put in charge of the Obamacare website — the Butterball hotline people. Have you ever called them? They always pick up. They're friendly. They have all of the information you need. And they're used to dealing with big turkeys.
According to CNN, they're now developing a new spy plane that can travel six times the speed of sound and can launch missiles. They said it could really help us with our spying. In fact, this plane is so good President Obama is already denying knowing anything about it.
Editor's Note: Video Exposes Dangers of Obamacare Law
Today Matt Lauer and Al Roker had prostate exams live on the "Today" show. So the "Today" show has finally cracked the code on what people want to see first thing in the morning.
In Colorado, voters have approved a tax on marijuana to fund the building of schools. So kids, don't do drugs but stay in the schools funded by them.
Happy birthday to the Lamborghini automobile company. Lamborghini is now 50 years old. You can tell Lamborghini is 50 because it bought itself a Porsche.
Editor's note: 3 Signs You're Close to a Heart Attack
Mayor of Toronto Rob Ford's approval ratings have skyrocketing since he announced that he's smoking crack cocaine. Is EVERYBODY up there on crack? Is that the deal?
They had prostate exams on the "Today" show this morning. I can't argue with the importance of having your prostate checked. The idea of doing it during breakfast, I don't know. The last thing you want to hear during breakfast is the snapping of rubber gloves.
The "Today" show did the prostate exams live. This really is the golden age of TV.
This is not the first time Matt Lauer has had a surgical procedure on the "Today" show. About a year ago he had Ann Currie removed.
Editor's Note: Warren Buffett's Secret to Wealth — The Bible?
Did you see the "Today" show this morning? Matt Lauer and Al Roker got their prostates checked. On TV! This wasn't a typical broadcast of the "Today" show. It was more like an episode of "Bad Morning America."
Matt Lauer and Al Roker got prostate exams on TV. I want to know whose idea this was. Who gave it the thumbs up? I'll get to the bottom of this. We need to finger the culprit.
The prostate exams only took 30 seconds at the very end of the show. You didn't actually see the procedure. Matt Lauer and Al Roker just disappeared into offices. All you saw was a closed door. I felt so cheated.
You know what NBC should have done? Brought in a magician to perform the examination. He could pull out a never-ending string of handkerchiefs.
Editor's Note: Over 50? Check Out These Free Government Giveaways...
Blockbuster announced that it will close all of its remaining stores in the U.S. by sometime early next year. Blockbuster's going out of business. So it looks like I'm now the proud owner of a VHS copy of "True Lies."
I'm not sure why Blockbuster is losing so much money. Maybe I'll watch a documentary about it on Netflix.
Russian President Vladimir Putin will travel to the Vatican this month to hold talks with Pope Francis. The Pope even offered to hear Putin's confession — or as Putin calls it, "bragging."

11 WVC teams set for Cross Invitational
Fourteen of the 15 teams entered in the 18th James Cross Invitational are from District 2, giving the final tournament weekend before the District 2 Championships a local flavor.
The field events begin today at 1:30 p.m at Miner Park, and the track events start at 2 at Wilkes-Barre Memorial Stadium.
The Coughlin quartet of Mary Tona, Carly Ray, Tamar Bourdeau and Nathaniela Bourdeau broke the school record in the 400 relay Thursday in a time of 49.8 second.
Nathaniela Bourdeau broke school records in both the 100 and 200 dashes this past week, although Dallas' Catie Gawlas is the defending champion in both events.
Dallas' Bryanna Dissinger (3200) and Wyoming Area's Haley Stackhouse (100 hurdles) are among the other returning champions.
On the boys side, Coughlin's Anthony Khalife will defend his shot put and discus titles.
Khalife a senior committed to play football at Colgate, had a pair of top three finishes at the Jack Roddick Invitational in Shippensburg two weeks ago.
Northwest junior Tyler Burger is slated to compete in the 110 hurdles, 300 hurdles, triple jump and high jump. He cleared 6-2 in the high jump last Friday to win the Wyalusing Lasagna Invitational.

The chef and the staff always strive to make meals memorable. Excellent cuisine, discreet service and pleasant atmosphere are top most priorities. Wines that both compliment the food and excite the taste buds are recommended with every meal, thus allowing visitors to explore and discover more about South African wines.
Blue Gum has an imaginative cellar of great South African wines and concentrates especially on wines of the surrounding Stanford and Hermanus areas.
With a motto like "Life's too short for bad food." B's Steak House in the seaside town of Hermanus certainly lives up to its claim. B's has won and been runners up for the Steak House of the Year Award (1999, 2000 and 2001). So, what to expect? Steak prepared to perfection.
The relaxed atmosphere of the restaurant has a 'Sante Fe' feel with its orange and blue colour scheme which is enhanced by the solid wooden furnishings and airy double volume ceiling.

The cheating thing is only specualtion. I've heard many different stories why he was held from practice and now suspended. Some from reliable sources. KF is keeping the reasoning behind this under wraps.
If not cheating on their courses, were they working at Hawkeye Gold Auto Sales in Iowa City and failed to report for work?
Bad luck for them - the Montana Iowa game was to be shown on ESPNU at noon on 2 Sep

In this smarter world, retail stores need a dynamic infrastructure
Rapidly changing consumer dynamics, growing competition and the growth of technology is making it hard for retailers to keep up. Out-dated or ineffective infrastructure and store systems compound the problem. Today it is not enough for checkout systems to collect sales data. To use the valuable information to its full potential requires store technology that is connected to the business.
A dynamic infrastructure gives the business visibility to all company assets – down to a store device -- control to turn on a dime in the face of change, and automation to:
- Deliver a Superior Shopping Experience: A personalized shopping interaction enables customers to engage on their own terms, while creating excitement and the motivation to act.
- Create smarter merchandise and supply chains: Transaction data used to optimize inventory, and to predict and respond to market changes, keeps sales flowing.
- Drive Operational Excellence: Efficient management of people, processes and technologies -- and the services they provide -- reduces cost and improves business performance.

Applied Sensor Technology
Applied sensor technology is now used in a variety of electronic products. This technology is essential to achieving high-performance "intelligent" functions. In recent years, applied sensor technology has gained increasing popularity from an eco-friendly standpoint for deducing power consumption. By monitoring peripheral activities and providing fine-grained control of product operation, overall power consumption can be significantly reduced. The importance of such functionality continues to grow. Systems employing a variety of sensors require multichannel A/D converters and timer inputs in order to control the many sensors deployed. In addition, device control is essential, for example to operate motors linked to sensors.
Renesas' RL78/G14 and R8C/3x Series of microcontrollers provide multiple inputs and outputs at low cost and are ideal for flexible product configurations. They combine multifunction timers, multichannel A/D converters, and low-power operation suitable for applied sensor applications.

CORNELIUS – N.C. Rep. Thom Tillis has bought $300,000 in television ads comparing his conservative values to those of U.S. Sen. Kay Hagan, whom he's trying to unseat in the November 2014 election.
The ads will run in western and coastal North Carolina, as well as the Piedmont Triad.
"The way to beat Kay Hagan is to start exposing her record of 96 percent support for the Obama agenda right now," Tillis wrote to supporters. "Once North Carolinians are reminded of that record of shackling our economy with Obamacare and more debt, she doesn't stand a chance."

Gainsborough Old Hall and All Saints Church.
Gainsborough is essentially a midland red brick 19th century town with a very nicely preserved half timbered old hall of 14th and 15th centuries and later. In 1760 it became a linen factory and has subsequently been a theatre, a corn exchange and a sale room. The first floor room in the east wing was used in 1773 for worship by Congregationalists and later as a ballroom. Before 1952 it was used as a Masonic Lodge. Rather than give much information here of the details of construction it is best if you come and see it.
In the late 17th and 18th centuries the town became an important inland port. It declined from 1849 onwards but was saved by the setting up of an engineering works.
This has a medieval tower and the nave is a rebuild of 1736 to 1744, by Francis Smith the designer of All Saints church Derby. It was last redecorated in 1967-8 by Lawrence Bond.
Stained glass in all the apse windows by Wailes in 1859. In the In the north chapel the east window, 1872, by Ward and Hughes and the north window 1904 designed by Bodley and made by Burlison & Grylls. In the nave on the south wall second from the west is a subject of Christ disputing with the doctors in the Temple. By Morris and Co (The artists being Titcomb, Stokes and Edge.) and the easternmost 1870 by C. E. Clutterbuck.

Dornsife begins experimental online poll to gauge residents
Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences announced last week the start of an experimental online survey, which polls L.A. residents' opinions on political issues and candidates.
The online poll is based on the success of the USC Dornsife/Los Angeles Times Poll, a cooperative phone survey undertaken three years ago by the Los Angeles Times and Dornsife College experts to gauge public opinion. Unlike the phone poll, however, the new online experiment will ask for in-depth answers to political questions independent of the Los Angeles Times. Read more>

Dan Schnur enjoys getting students involved in politics
Dan Schnur dreamed of becoming a journalist, so he did what any aspiring reporter might do: enroll in a Minnesota college as a political science major and become the newspaper editor.

At 19 years old, he traveled from his Wisconsin home to Washington, D.C., to volunteer for Ronald Reagan's 1984 presidential campaign over the summer. Read more>

After posting this in response to a question from a user on the Profantasy Forum, Gandwarf suggested that I post it here as well.
Here's a quick and easy way to generate a floating landmass using simple sheet effects in CC3. This is very rough and basic and is only to be used as starting settings for anyone trying to accomplish this effect.
Floating Landmasses can best be acheived through the use of SHEET EFFECTS. Regardless of which style pack you choose, you'll need to create a SHEET EFFECT that produces the result you're looking for. The 'Drop Shadow' effect will produce a shadow under your continents to give the appearance of floating. You'll need to experiment with the settings to get the right distance under your landmasses.
If you want every Landmass to be floating at the same elevation then I would suggest using any of the map templates that start with an Ocean Background color and then adding the 'Drop Shadow' effect to the LAND SHEET. I would also apply a 'Blur' to the Background SHEET to make it look less like water. I used the Ice.bmp fill style with a Blur of 20 for my example map.
If you want the Landmasses to be floating at different elevations then you simply Add SHEETS called anything like "Landmass Low", "... Mid", "... High" or "...1", "...2", "...3" whatever makes sense to you and then use the "Move Up" button to position them directly under the BACKGROUND SHEET in the SHEET order list.
You can add as many as you wish, however it's VERY important to remember a few things. First is that CC3 draws things in your map in SHEET order from the TOP of the LIST to the BOTTOM. In our example above, everything on the BACKGROUND SHEET is drawn first. Everything on the LANDMASS 1 SHEET is drawn next. Then comes "...2" and "...3". IF I were to put a Square on my Background, a Circle on Landmass 1, a Triangle on Landmass 2, and some text on Landmass 3 the result would be Text on top of a Triangle on top of a Circle on top of a Square.
Here's a great thread that may help you to understand the way CC3 utilizes SHEETS
The second thing to remember is that SHEETS with nothing on them are deleted when you Save your map. If you erase a landmass from LANDMASS 2 (and there's nothing else on that SHEET) then the next time you Save your map, the LANDMASS 2 SHEET will be erased from your list resulting in a SHEET ORDER that looks like;
This has happened to me on many occasions after spending quite a bit of time getting my SHEET EFFECTS just right and then deleting the objects on the sheet right before a save.
For the landmass examples below I used 5 different LANDMASS SHEETS and varied the x,y DROP SHADOW effect 10,20,30,40 and 50 for each sheet.

FPL president Eric Silagy says, "This is one of the most ambitious projects that has ever been undertaken in the country and definitely one of the most ambitious projects that FPL has undertaken. Completing the installation of the 4.5 million smart meters and the deployment of smart grid technology throughout our service territory is making it possible for us to improve our service reliability, prevent outages and detect problems, while giving customers more control over the energy they use."
Four years ago FPL was one of just six American utilities to receive a $200 million grant from the Department of Energy (DOE) to help fund a comprehensive grid modernization project. The utility also invested an additional $600 million.
Silagy recounts, "In 2009, we began the deployment of state-of-the-art smart grid technologies as part of our commitment to building a smarter, more reliable and more efficient electrical infrastructure. While we celebrate the installation of 4.5 million meters nine months ahead of schedule, at FPL we never stop working to deliver reliable, affordable electricity for our customers."
Patricia Hoffman, the DOE's Assistant Secretary for the Office of Electricity Delivery and Energy Reliability, adds: "Situational awareness plays an important role in improving the reliability and resiliency of the grid. DOE funding of this FPL project and others is helping utilities and system operators across the nation get a faster, more accurate picture of the status of the grid, allowing them to respond more quickly and efficiently when disruptions occur."
FPL says the smart grid's benefits include real-time information; ability to identify outages and diagnose their causes; verification that power was restored; early warning of power issues; remote communications with FPL; and more information for FPL customers about their energy use.
Silay adds: "This technology truly is transforming how we create, transport, and deliver electricity. While we're marking important milestones today, this is just the beginning. We're continuing to find new ways to use this technology to enhance the everyday value we provide our customers for many years to come."

Kimberly A. DorsettBrown County State's Attorney 22 Court Street, Suite 2Aberdeen, SD 57401
Use of Tax Increment Financing Districts for the Development of Residential Property
Dear Ms. Dorsett:
You have requested an opinion from this Office based upon the following factual situation:
The City of Aberdeen is considering whether to grant two requests by local developers to create tax increment financing districts to help fund infrastructure placement, including road and curb and gutter work, in planned residential housing developments. Individual landowners would be able to purchase lots within the developments and build their own homes once the needed infrastructure is in place. Brown County is concerned about the potential tax implications should the requests be granted.
Based upon the above facts, you have requested an answer to the following question:
Whether, pursuant to SDCL 11-9-42, the City of Aberdeen may establish the requested tax increment financing districts.
SDCL 11-9-42 states that "[n]o tax increments shall be used for the construction of residential structures."
The purpose of statutory construction is to ascertain the intent of a law from a review of the language expressed in the statute. Martinmaas V. Engleman, 2000 S.D. 85, ¶ 49, 612 N.W.2d 600, 611. The intent of a statute is determined from what the legislature said, rather than what the reviewer thinks it should have said. Benson v. State of South Dakota, 2006 S.D. 8, ¶ 71, 710 N.W.2d 131, 158 (quoting Martinmaas, 2000 S.D. 85, ¶ 49). "Words or phrases in a statute must be given their plain meaning and effect." Martinmaas, 2000 S.D. 85, ¶ 49.
While neither "residential" nor "structure" is specifically defined in statute, the terms are not unclear or ambiguous. "Residential" is commonly defined as "used as a residence or by residents." Merriam Webster's New Collegiate Dictionary 996 (10th ed. 1993). "Structure" is defined as "something that is constructed." Id. at 1167. The terms, when used together, plainly refer to something constructed for use as a residence.
It is my opinion that the plain and unambiguous language of SDCL 11-9-42 only prohibits the use of tax increment districts for the construction of residences, and the statute is not applicable to the construction of infrastructure in a residential development. A clear distinction exists between the two situations. A review of the legislative history of the statute supports this conclusion.
South Dakota's tax increment financing provisions were originally enacted in 1978, and codified as SDCL ch. 11-9. 1978 S.D. Sess. Laws ch. 91. The original language of SDCL 11-9-42 stated that "[a] tax incremental district shall not be used for development of residential property." In 1985 the Legislature passed Senate Bill 133, which was entitled "An Act to permit use of tax incremental district for development of residential property." 1985 S.D. Sess. Laws ch. 102. The bill amended SDCL 11-9-42 to its current language. The Legislature's intent to allow the use of tax increment financing districts to aid in the development of residential property – while prohibiting their use in the construction of residences – is clear.
According to the plain language of the statute my answer to your question is yes; the City of Aberdeen may establish the tax increment financing districts as proposed.
Very truly yours,
Larry LongATTORNEY GENERAL

Hundreds of beer kegs stolen from Ilford's The Great Spoon pub
08:00 21 February 2013
A staggering 200 empty aluminium beer kegs have been stolen from a pub in Ilford, even though it is illegal to sell them in the UK as scrap.
Bonnie Smith, manager of The Great Spoon, Cranbrook Road, Ilford, said that she believes they were stolen to be sold off for scrap metal.
The latest burglary saw two men get away with between 25-30 of the kegs, worth about £600.
Miss Smith said: "It's happened quite a few times, so I'm not surprised.
"It's illegal to sell them to scrap yards as they are all pressurised.
"The brewery own them but we will lose the money in the end, as they will start to take it off us."
The most recent theft was by two men who pulled up to the pub in a white Ford transit van at about 4.45am on February 4.
They can be seen entering the pub's car park on the CCTV footage before they go into a storage shed and take the empty kegs – capable of holding 11, 18 and 22 gallons. They then drive off.
Miss Smith said: "It's the scrap metal price – I think they might find some scrap yard that might taken them as not all are legitimate.
"It's happened at a few of the pubs, and happened lots of times at my last pub. They're worth about £50 a keg."
She said there was one incident in which so many kegs were stolen that the brewery hired a private investigator.
A spokesman for Redbridge Police said: "The theft is being treated as an isolated incident and the police in Redbridge are not aware of it being linked to organised crime. There is no proof in Redbridge of that."
Anyone who witnessed this incident or believe they may know something about the men should call Ilford burglary squad on 020 8345 2680.
If you wish to remain anonymous call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

So, my wife and I have done an overnight ride from Old Town Alexandria to Leesburg VA going outbound on the W&OD then back on the C&O Towpath. Nice, scenic, good mileage.
So now what?
We live in Arlington and I was considering riding out to Harper's Ferry via MacArthur Blvd, out River Rd, and then hooking up with the Towpath at White's Ferry out to Harper's Ferry. At about 60 miles, it's probably the maximum we'd want to do. The weather variability with the Towpath surface could be an issue.
Any other suggestions? My sister-in-law wanted to go to Annapolis, but I'm not sure how nice a ride that would be. Ditto for riding to Baltimore.
I probably wouldn't object to a short (30 minute?) drive to the ride start, but it'd be nice to avoid that?
Suggestions please?
thanks in advance

Just watched the 07 season, and Kimi won like 5 or 6 races, and was more often than not in podium positions. He was pushing Hamilton and Alonso. What did Massa do to deserve the title? He outbraked himself twice in the same corner trying to pass a rookie in his 3rd ever race, the second time losing 3 positions.
Yeah, a real champion. As soon as those pole positions disappeared, so did his wins.

COLFAX TOWNSHIP, Mich. – A man says he shot and killed a neighbor`s cow after mistaking it for a coyote.
Authorities and the owner are skeptical.
The undersheriff in northern Michigan`s Benzie County says he doesn`t see how anyone could confuse a 1,400-pound, pregnant cow with a coyote, which typically weighs 20 to 45 pounds.
Shooting coyotes is illegal during deer-shooting season, and authorities asked the county prosecutor to bring charges.
The 42-year-old man told authorities he was out to shoot coyotes near his home Saturday when he killed the cow, Undersheriff Rory Heckman said. Heckman said the man tried to drag the cow home.
"The part of his story he his holding to is he shot at a coyote. I don`t know how he hit a several-thousand-pound cow mistaking it for a coyote," Heckman said.
"My husband thought that he should go through some therapy looking at repeated pictures of cows and coyotes, because they look nothing alike," owner DeAnn Mosher said.

I would assume Saffron is a girls name. Archer Grace as a boys name has less potential for teasing in that he would mostly go by Archer, but Grace is such a girl's name that you'd have to explain it in that context of why you gave him such a middle name. I think it unlikely he would get through school without it coming out, or family saying something etc.Chelsea

Welcome to My Colon Cleanse Reviews!

On this site, you'll find a ton of both, so hunker down and get ready to learn everything there is to know about colon cleansing!
We've got a lot of information locked up in dozens of pages around the site. The best way to navigate things is through the menu above, the sidebar to the right, and this page below. Here you'll find direct links to our colon cleanse review articles, as well as other articles that have been written or contributed to the site in order to help provide you as much information about colon cleansing as is possible.
What is Colon Cleansing?
According to the folks at Wikipedia, Colon Cleansing is the act of utilizing supplements or hydrotherapy to remove backed up waste and toxins from the large intestine, or colon. The idea is that by helping the body in its natural waste removal processes, your intestinal tract will stay in its healthiest possible condition and will be able to perform its digestive functions at maximum performance.
Colon cleansing is used for everything from losing weight to helping relieve constipation and bloating. Below, we'll take a look at some of the various colon cleansing supplements on the market today, uses for these products, and offer a selection of articles that have been written by professionals to share their insight about colon cleansing and why it can be beneficial to your health.

Colon Cleansing Articles
The intestinal tract – and especially the colon – is one of the most complex set of organs and tissues in the body. Your colon handles most of the absorption of water from the food that you eat, as well as the reabsorption of water that is released as part of the digestive cycle each day. In addition, it plays host to trillions of bacteria, who work hard to assist the body with its many various tasks and help to prevent us from infection. To learn a bit more about the colon, the process of colon cleansing, and why it can be beneficial to one's health, we've written a number of articles here on the site. Please browse through these links below to find information which can help you in your quest for perfect colon health. Enjoy!

Does Colon Cleansing Work?
In terms of removing waste from the colon and promoting regular intestinal movement and health, colon cleanses from reputable sources most definitely work. However, the debate has been raging for years about which particular ailments or diseases colon cleansing is best used to treat. As with any other health supplement, colon cleansing works best when added on to a healthy diet and regular exercise. After all, you can't expect your digestive system to function at its peak efficiency if you are throwing in nothing but junk foods and sugary sodas. As the old saying goes… "garbage in, garbage out!"The three main uses for colon cleanses are the prevention or relief of constipation, weight loss, and general health.
Colon Cleansing to Prevent Constipation
If you are suffering from regular constipation, feelings of being bloated a few hours after meals, straining on the toilet or other dysfunctions in passing your waste, you might want to give a colon cleanse a try. Most of the good colon cleansing supplements include a number of natural and bulk-forming laxatives in low doses, which means that they will help to support your natural passage of waste without leaving you running for the bathroom shortly after taking your daily dose.
Colon Cleansing for Weight Loss
Weight loss is one area that colon cleansing has received a lot of attention throughout the past few years. Thanks to recommendations from a wide variety of health professionals, doing a one-month or longer colon cleanse has now become a regular occasion for those who are looking to shed a few additional pounds here and there. It's important to note that doing nothing but taking a colon cleanse supplement each day is unlikely to produce significant weight loss; like any health supplement, your colon cleanse is best paired with healthy eating and an exercise program.
For this reason, many of the colon cleanse manufacturers include some form of "thermogenic" or fat burning herb in their formulation, in order to promote additional caloric burn and to help speed up weight loss.
As an added bonus, most are also offering free memberships to their weight loss programs to all of their customers. The reputable colon cleanse manufacturers realized that many of their clients are looking for every possible means to assist them with losing weight, so offering additional help in the form of free eBooks, forums, calorie tracking resources and diet managers was a natural fit.
Colon Cleansing for Good Health
This is the area where most of the debate occurs in regards to colon cleansing; if you aren't sick and the body is capable of handling things on its own, why would you do a cleanse? Proponents of colon cleansing suggest that taking the natural herbs found in high quality colon cleansing products on a daily basis does more to promote colon health than simply eating food and praying for the best. To complicate matters, medical studies and clinical trials have shown both benefits and no effects at all from certain colon cleansing supplements.
As to whether or not you need colon cleansing products to maintain daily colon health – the decision is up to you. If you are a fit, healthy individual who doesn't ever experience any regular constipation or other issues with passing feces, you probably aren't in need of a colon cleanse. However, if you do suffer from constipation or if you are looking for a supplement that will help with your weight loss, a colon cleanse is worth a shot.
What about Colon Cleansing Scams?
Unfortunately, there have been a number of shady supplement companies and operators that have come in to the market in the past few years, offering "free trials" and then ripping their customers off by charging them massive fees for monthly colon cleanse shipments. This has done nothing but cause problems for those who are genuinely interested in the potential health benefits of colon cleansing, and how maintaining colon health can ward off a number of illnesses.
While we cannot guarantee that any supplement will or will not have the effects that you desire from it, what we CAN guarantee is that we will do our very best to protect you from shady "free trial" offers that end up being nothing but a scam. As you can see in the sidebar, there are a number of cleanses listed under the "discontinued cleanses" column, and we do not recommended making use of any of these products if you do find them.
Rest assured – if we come across any scams in the future, they will be posted up on this blog for everyone to see and so that you can avoid them.
Thanks for Visiting!
Thanks again for visiting My Colon Cleanse Reviews! We hope that you find all of the information you are looking for here on our site. Good luck with improving your colon health and/or meeting your weight loss goals in 2012!
