This post has been sponsored by PicJoke.com via SponsoredReviews.com

Hello,friends,we all know,how important pictures,are to our blog.Adding,some good,interesting pictures yo your blog posts and also to your forum posts,e-mails adds a different dimension to it.One of the best way to attract your reader's attention,to a particular blog post,is perhaps,adding a related photo to it.If you take into consideration even the best of the blogs,like Mashable,Techcrunch,Boing Boing and many others,you would notice,that almost all of their posts are associated with a representative photo.I think,we all have noticed very attractive RSS Feed icons,displayed at thousands of blogs,in order to attract new subscribers.Yes,if you ask me writing substantial,focused content is probably the most important criteria for increasing the visitor and subscriber count,but when it comes to pictures and photos,there is also no alternative to it.Let us take the example of this blog,in the initial days of my blogging,i was not aware of this important tool.After some time when i started adding photos to my blog posts,i found a substantial increase in the visitor count to my blog.I started getting, bulk of visitors even from Google Images.

In case of forums,i mean there are so many posts,so in order to attract readers to your posts,and thereby to your links,perhaps the best tool is to add a customized photo to your forum post.

Now,it's not only about adding a photo or icon,to your blog.The more you can customize it,more the better.And here comes PicJoke.com,this may be taken as a perfect Fun photo maker.Everyday,this fun photo editor,adds many picture effects to their site,and you can simply add an effect,by selecting a particular effect,and uploading,your photo.The whole process takes less than, half a minute.Automatically,HTML code for posting the new customized photo,to your blog,forum or even mails,is generated.Then it's just a cut and paste job.One of the best feature,i found out was that  many new effects are added everyday,to choose from.

Below,I have showed a demonstration,how easy it was,to customize some social bookmarking icons.

Addiction:An Overview

Leave a Comment


In this present day world of intense pressure and competition,Addiction of several substances has reached an immense proportion,both in developed and developing countries.

It is a tip of the iceberg situation,what we see is just the tip,a lot remains unrevealed.

For better explanation drug abuse disorders may be classified into four overlapping classes,that is acute intoxication,withdrawal symptoms,dependence state and harmful use of a drug.

The substances that are commonly abuse are alcohol,cannabis,opioid,cocaine,hallucinogens like LSD,phencyclidine etc.sedatives like barbiturates,volatile solvents,nicotine and many more.

Addiction problems are prevalent in all age groups and fairly common in adolescents.

Acute intoxication may be defined disturbance in consciousness,alternation of behavior due to excess consumption of different psychoactive substances like alcohol.

Withdrawal symptoms are those usually short lasting symptoms,that arise on partial or complete withdrawal of a drug.

Dependence state,can be defined as a state where there is difficulty in controlling substance taking behavior,there is a strong desire to take the substance,along with appearance of withdrawal symptoms,when the substance abuse have been ceased.

Addiction treatment can be broadly divided into detoxification,that is the treatment of withdrawal symptoms,treatment of drug overdose,treatment of drug dependence.Last but not the least,maintenance therapy,forms an integral component of any drug rehab program,which primarily attempts to keep the individual out of the addictive behavior.

Finally to conclude this overview i would like to at least present the drugs and protocols used in the management of common substance abuses.

The drugs used in the treatment of alcohol addiction are chlordiazepoxide,diazepam for treating withdrawal symptoms.Treatment of alcohol dependence consists of behavior therapy,group therapy,psychotherapy,anti craving agents like acamprosate etc.Vitamins like thiamine also form an important component.

Management of opioid addiction mainly consists drugs like naloxone,naltrexone for treating opioid overdose.For maintenance therapy drugs like methadone,naltrexone are used.Other drugs like LAAM,synanon and psychosocial therapy also form a part of the regimen.

I have explained the management of nicotine addiction in one of my previous post,you can check here

Now,an overview about addiction can not be concluded,without mentioning a few words
about the drug treatment of cannabis addiction.Management of cannabis addiction predominantly comprises of supportive and symptomatic therapy.Family therapy and psychosocial therapy also forms an important component of the treatment protocol.

Endometrial Stromal Nodule

Leave a Comment
Endometrial stromal tumors are rare uterine tumors comprising 2 % of uterine tumors and occurs primarily in the 4th to 5th decades.The affected individual often presents with vaginal bleeding.

Stromal neoplasms are of three types---

endometrial stromal nodule: a benign tumor

low grade endometrial stromal sarcoma: malignant tumor with generally indolent behavior.

high grade endometrial stromal sarcoma: fully malignant tumor,unfavorable prognosis.

Endometrial stromal nodule is a rare mesenchymal tumor that accounts for one fourth of the endometrial stromal tumors. It is sometimes difficult to distinguish endometrial stromal nodule from stromal sarcoma.

Differential diagnosis depends on microscopic findings.
Endometrial stromal nodule being characterized by lack of infiltrating margins,lack of vascular/lymphatic invasion,minimal cytological atypia and mitotic activity.
DNA flow cytometric,ultrastructural,immunohistochemistry may also help.
Endometrial stromal tumors are commonly coexistent with leiomyomata and/or adenomyosis.

If the diagnosis is a endometrial stromal nodule, hysterectomy or local excision is recommended.

HAS GOOGLE UPDATED THE PAGE RANK?0ctober 30,2009

Leave a Comment

Grey PageRank Google ToolbarImage by rustybrick via Flickr



From today morning some interesting events are happening,over the web.First it was the turn of the Twitter,which released it's new feature The List(beta)--you can read it here.

And then,it was the turn of Google,that perhaps has updated it's page rank.Although,as of now i am not quite sure.From today morning the page rank checker of my Google tool bar is showing a Page rank of 2 for my new blog ONLINE ADVENTURES.I have checked and re-checked it a number of times.

Moreover one of the page rank checking sites,checkpagerank.net,is also showing similar results.

So,perhaps among all rumors of abolishing the page rank,perhaps Google has updated the page rank,yet again.

So,the page rank stays on.

Please note,that this is my observation,as of now i am not fully sure about it.

Common warts are usually caused by HPV-2.These warts usually present as a elevated,round,greyish colored growth with rough surface that may occur anywhere in the skin,but more commonly over the hands,knee etc.

FEELING A BIT LET DOWN BY .....

Leave a Comment


Bob DylanImage by Stoned59 via Flickr
For a few days,i have been feeling a bit let down by the actions of some individuals,whom i once regarded as my closest .These are the days when i like to hear one of my favorite song,i think everyone has heard this ...One of the Immortals  by Bob Dylan.

Blowin' in the Wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes 'n' how many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

WAYS TO QUIT SMOKING

1 comment


Unlit filtered cigarettesImage via Wikipedia

Hi friends.In continuation with my previous post,today i'll like to post a review on how to quit smoking.

Let,s take a step by step approach.


First and most important,the individual himself or herself should first decide to STOP SMOKING.I believe applying restriction on an individual doesn't help.One should decide individually,that this is the last cigarette he or she smokes.But this decision is perhaps the most difficult part to achieve.


To achieve this we require an internal urge to leave this harmful addiction.Help may also be taken from trained counselors in this field.Psychological & behavioral support has a great role to play in this respect.Help from family members,co-workers,friends is also required.Politely tell your friends who smoke,not to smoke in front of you.
