You might notice your teeth look a bit yellow from all that cigar smoking, coffee or life in general, so here is how you can whiten your teeth for free, without forking over $20 for a new teeth cleaning set.
Some easy household ingredients to whiten your teeth for nearly free include:
Hydrogen Peroxide and Baking Soda.
What you’ll need for this home made teeth whiten kit?

Apply this to your teeth with a toothbrush and notice how they already look whiter. I’ve read that using this teeth whiten strategy, people have noticed very white teeth in only 3 months.

Ask your dentist before applying this mix. Those with sensitive teeth might not be able to use this.
ONLY APPLY THIS ONCE PER WEEK.

Efficiency is key, and many businesses have learned that anything in excess is just waste. Thus, if you’ve heard of Toyota’s original Kanban system, you know all about how effective Toyota is in eliminating it’s wastes.
According to Jeffery Liker, author of Toyota Way “Toyota has identified 7 primary types of non value-adding waste in its business: over-production, motion (of operator or 
machine), waiting (of operator or machine), conveyance, processing itself, inventory (raw material), and correction (rework and scrap). Liker included an 8th waste—untapped employee creativity. ”
Consider production to be producing more than you need, Walmart has done great with having exactly the right amount of inventory, anymore would be a business waste. If you yourself sell a product you don’t want extra inventory hanging around do you?
Other wastes that are typical include having too much labor, these people end up sitting around, wastes your money, which in turn adds unneeded costs onto your product.
Finally having processes that are inefficient, having to correct your work, or even having lots of access product left over. Say for instance you create wooden shoes, but after creating the shoe you have tons of left over scrap wood that can’t be used left over. That is lots of wasted shoe material, yet another waste.
How do they 7 wastes of Toyota apply to you?
Think about your daily life. Do you use more water than necessary, drive an inefficent route to work? Maybe you pay for an expensive landline phone where as a voip phone would be much cheaper and efficient for you? There are plenty of ways to improve the efficency of our own lives and looking at the 7 wastes of a Toyota is a good place to start.

This is a follow up post to the earlier post about how to rip music from Deezer written earlier. Since then I’ve found a new solution that allows me to rip music from sources such as Deezer, and even last.fm. This however does not work with Deezer, but hopefully you are satisfied enough with Imeem.
1. Download Free Music Zilla. This will allow you to rip the files.
2. After you have launched free music zilla. Go to Deezer or Last.Fm and start playing a track. A new file will show up in your free music zilla. Click download. The song has to continue playing until the download is finished (usually it downloads extremely fast).
3. Now you’ll have a track labeled something like f4saedsadd
4. Download DVDsoft video to mp3 converter.
5. Find the file with DVDsoft. Now is a good time to rename the output file to the track name so you won’t forget what you ripped.
6. Enjoy!
Sometimes we can’t be happy with what we have and go out and try to make our site layout better. Well Propeller got a new site layout and word is out, it sucks! The new propeller site layout is hard to use, navigate and we can’t use our easy submitter. What were you thinking propeller!
The Original Propeller site has become this crappy layout:
Maybe we just need to adjust to the new layout? But for now my opinion about the new propeller site remains… it sucks!
Since I started syndicated full feeds with BustaBlog.com I see many blogs that simply don’t earn money online. Why? There are plenty of factors and reasons why a blog won’t earn money online. Of course we need to keep in mind not everyone cares about the ability to earn money online. They make webpages for fun and leave it at that. But, I think everyone deserves something for their work. Work should be fun, but you deserve to earn money for your work too…
1. Poor Ad Placement = Earn Less Money Online
The biggest factor I’ve noticed is the ad placement of google advertisements. Sometimes I have to actually look to find them. If you have one ad at the bottom of your page or just an ad on your sidebar, almost no one is going to click them! Some of my website are pratically landmines of ads. I have in text advertising, in post ads on the top left, bottom and a big picture ad on the sidebar.
2. No traffic = No money?
So many blogs out there do not social submit their websites that no one ever ends up finding their websites. Use Propeller, Digg, Reddit, and spread the news. This will give you additional backlinks and of course… traffic!
3. No Site SEO = Earn Less Money Online?
How many no traffic sites, don’t use some of the SEO golden rules? So many people wrote titles to their post that have nothing to do with the content of their post? If you remember back to grade school, the title of your paper should be a good overall sumary of what is contained within the article. Hey Guys! Is a terrible way to title a post. How about, how to have a great Saturday?
Ok there really is no purpose or reason to flip text upside other than to confuse your friends or your readers. What about writing an entire post with upside down text? Well you can now flip your text upside using a simple code.

Lately it seems as if the Google Trends is actually getting “gamed” with people forcing such top results as “how to poop at work” or my favorite ““ǝlƃooƃ noʎ ʞɔnɟ.” Clever? Just look at this Google Trends result for “how to poop at work”:
Other results have included a swastica at the top of the google search trend. Some might think it’s funny, but it’s causing Google quite a problem, especially when they had to temporarily shutdown to remove that swatistica. (Swasticas are included in Chinese Characters).
More and more people are turning toward staying home for their vacation. Of course we all know the reasons why we might need to stay home for vacation. Here are the top 5 reasons according to fool.com:
5. You just outsourced the family dog for meal money.
4. Filling your gas tank costs the same as a weeklong pass to a theme park.
3. Foreign tourists just offered pocket change for your house.
2. All of your ATM receipts read, “You’re kidding, right?”
And the No. 1 sign you’ll be taking a staycation this summer … You frequently mistake your energy bill for your mortgage payment.
Of course more and more people are staying home for vacation simply because it would cost them too much to drive anywhere. I face the same question myself as I pay my student loans off, but at the same time want to fly over to Europe or South America. How much is too much and what is your breaking point before you decide this year’s vacation is going to be a stay at home vacation?
