The Christmas Tree: Instead of thinking about a decorated tree with many gifts underneath it, think of 1 Corinthian 1:18, The cross of the Lord Jesus Christ where the price of our redemption was paid for all eternity. The gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord [Romans 6:23]. ... Read more

You may think that you decide how much food you eat, but you don't.

A recent study has discovered two ways that your mind tricks you into eating more (or less) without you knowing it. If you're looking to shed a few pounds, then understanding these insights could offer a painless way to do it.

1. Let Your Plate Control Your Portion

When it comes to eating less, researchers have long known that a simple way to cut calories is to use a smaller plate. In one experiment, conducted by Brian Wansink from Cornell University and Koert van Ittersum from the Georgia Institute of Technology, it was discovered that a shift from 12–inch plates to 10–inch plates resulted in a 22% decrease in calories. Assuming the average dinner is 800 calories, this simple change would result in an estimated weight loss of more than 10 pounds over the course of one year.

While studies have proven over and over again that smaller plates lead to smaller portions the reason for this reduction had been unknown until recently. Wansink and van Ittersum have concluded that smaller plates cause us to eat less thanks to a powerful optical illusion known as the Delboeuf Illusion. The illusion works because we think things are smaller when we compare them to things that are larger.

If you put a small piece of food on a large plate, your mind will tell you that you are eating a small portion and you will automatically put more food on the plate. However, if you put that same piece of food on a small plate, your mind will tell you that you are eating a large portion and you'll stop adding food. The image below depicts the Delboeuf Illusion and how it applies to food.

2. Pick a Color That Makes Life Easy

The size of your plate isn't the only thing that determines how much you eat. Wansink and van Ittersum have discovered that the color of your plate matters too.

The two men conducted an experiment where they examined the relationship between plate color and serving size. The researchers instructed one group of participants to serve themselves pasta pre–mixed with a red tomato sauce and a second group to serve themselves pasta pre–mixed with a white Alfredo sauce. Each person was randomly given a white plate or a dark red plate.

The researchers discovered that when the color of a participant's plate matched the color of their food, they served themselves almost 30% more. In other words, if you ate pasta with red tomato sauce on a dark red plate, you ate almost 30% more than you would if you had used a white plate. The same was true for eating pasta with a white Alfredo sauce on a white plate compared to a dark red plate.

The reason behind this drastic difference in serving size is that when the color of your food blends in with the color of your plate, then the amount of food doesn't appear to be as large. The result is that you will end up scooping more food onto the plate. Look at the color contrast in the image below to get a sense of this effect.

Picking the best travel buddy is certain to be a tough decision. There are many different things that can be considered to create the happy, relaxed and friendly atmosphere for the duration of a trip. Let's take a look at a few of the important things:

Personality

A great place to start in the search for a travel buddy is to find someone with the same or similar type of personality. Whether you are the relaxed type or those that are constantly on the go and energetic, you will find it benefits to travel with the like-minded companion. Also, the type of activities in the travel plan can influence the travel buddy.

Additionally, it is important to make sure the travel itinerary is able to complement both parties. It will certainly help if the personalities match in this area because a happy-go-lucky person and an organization junkie may have difficulty getting along.

Budget

Many travelers prefer to stay in a decent hotel on their travels and eat at restaurants in the evenings, while others will have no issue with moving from one cheap guest house to the next and eating out or even enjoying the street food scene in certain countries. Instead of getting frustrated with a travel buddy about the cost of travel, it will benefit to have a proper conversation in order to come to a satisfactory agreement before getting on the road.

Shared interests

It will certainly help to travel with a travel buddy that has shared interests if you want to avoid long periods of awkward silence. The ability to keep a conversation going will be very difficult if both parties have completely different interests. For this reason, you will find it benefits to travel with someone who shares one or more of your interests.

Practice runs

A great way to decide if a travel buddy is the right fit for a long trip is to take a practice run. This can simply involve taking a short trip together for the day. It can help to travel to a completely new place for both parties and see if you can both agree on things like finding a preferred restaurant, activities, transportation, etc. It may be necessary to compromise at times, but the all-round experience should still be fun and enjoyable.

Overall, it can take time to find the travel buddy that matches the personality, so the entire process should be carefully planned to minimize issues when traveling.

There are so many weird and wonderful fun facts about chocolate, it's difficult to know which to include and which to omit because of space considerations.

First of all, the Mayans used cacao beans as currency as they believed that they were more valuable than gold dust. They controlled the production of beans so that their currency wouldn't depreciate in value.

White chocolate isn't strictly speaking chocolate. We have been labouring under a misapprehension for many years. Chocolate has to contain cocoa solids, but white chocolate doesn't have any in it. Instead, cocoa butter is used in the production of white chocolate.

Europeans are the biggest fans of chocolate, accounting for the consumption of nearly half of the chocolate that is produced globally.

Where was the biggest chocolate bar produced? In the UK; it was made by Thornton's for its centenary. It was a record breaker, weighing 5,792.50 kilograms.

Toblerone is so popular that if the number of bars sold each year were to be put end to end, they would stretch to 62,000km. That's more than the Earth's circumference.

Chocolate contains theobromine which s a very powerful stimulant. If you eat too much of it, it can prove fatal. However, you would have to eat around 22 pounds of the stuff in one sitting, which isn't really possible. Theobromine poisoning causes seizures, heart failure, dehydration, and acute kidney damage.

Chocolate chip cookies, adored by many around the world, came into being because of an accident which occurred in 1930. Ruth Wakefield ran out of cooking chocolate, but undeterred she used pieces of chocolate in her biscuit dough. The chocolate she used was Nestles, and she later sold her recipe to the firm in return for a lifetime's supply of chocolate.

A pound of chocolate contains 400 cocoa beans and a cacao tree will produce around 2,500 beans. The beans are the seeds of the cacao tree. These trees are delicate and cocoa farmers lose about 30 percent of their crop every year.

Most of the world's cocoa comes from West Africa, with Cote d'Ivoire accounting for around 40 percent of the world's cacao supply.

Ancient people fermented the pods of the cacao beans to make drinks other than chocolate.

Montezuma, the Aztec emperor used to drink 50 cups of chocolate a day. These were served to him in a golden chalice.

Every November in Germany, people celebrate Saint Martin's Day with sweets and mugs of steaming hot chocolate.

Are you one of those who claim that your dog is your best friend? Surely you also adhere to the phrase "when more I know men, more I love my dog".

And while some human beings give more than enough reasons to prefer dogs, among them the mistreatment that they profess to animals, it is also true that, from so much repetition, they are expressions that can end empty of content.

Dogs have been accompanying man for 40 thousand years, as the latest scientific findings seem to indicate. Much water under the bridge ran from those first wolves that were domesticated until today. Humans use and abuse dogs for both noble and despicable activities. The list is long and it is not the idea to display it here.

One day we discovered that these furry were also great as pets and thus became part of our families in a relationship that often makes us claim that they are our best friends. And we wield a number of reasons for this. For example:

Your unconditional loyalty
His permanent demonstration of affection.
They do not discriminate against us or make fun of us.
They do not judge us or question our mistakes.
They do not hold a grudge if we treat them badly sometimes.

Without wishing to contradict but to reflect, to think that a good friend should not judge or question us sounds quite self-serving. And while a dog can accompany us with his affection when we know we made a serious mistake, the ideal complement for this is the words of a faithful and great human friend to help us see what we did wrong and how to repair that damage.

And that of which we hold a grudge if we treat it badly, perhaps it has to do with the way in which a dog memorizes things. But in no way does it give us the right to mistreat it. What kind of friendship is that in which we allow ourselves to treat someone badly just because he is not spiteful?

Beyond all this, we must not forget that while the dog can be a great friend, we must never fall into the error of humanizing it and believing that it can replace the relationships we must establish with our fellow human beings. If we get to that, not only are we doing badly to ourselves, but to the little animal, which we both say we want.

We believe that it is a popular saying based on the good attitudes of the dog, such as his love and fidelity to his family. But it is nothing more than the wonderful conclusion of a story that fell into oblivion and we should keep in mind.

The origin of the phrase "The dog is the best friend of man" goes back to the year 1869, when the lawyer George Graham Vest represented in a trial Charles Burden, the owner of an old foxhoun, a hunting dog that was killed Cold blood for his neighbor with several shots. The speech delivered by the lawyer, where the sentence is framed, served to win the trial and also changed the judicial history of the United States in relation to animal rights.

Charles Burden was an animal-loving farmer, known in Warrenburg County, Missouri, for the wonderful relationship he had with his dog, Old Drum. His neighbor, on the other hand, did not like animals at all and threatened him several times with killing the dog. One night in 1869 Charles found his dog's body with several shots on his neighbor's fence. Before the evidence of what had happened, Charles promised his four-legged friend to do justice for his death.

The owner of Old Drum showed up at the Warrensburg Court. There they laughed at him for pretending to hold a trial because they had killed his dog. Then, the maximum penalty against what is now considered animal abuse was only $ 150. He lost the first trial, but appealed until the case reached the State Court.

The disadvantage of the farmer in front of the defendant millionaire, who was represented by two eminences of the moment, hindered the case from moving forward. Charles and the colonel who helped prepare the trial, took advantage of the visit to Missouri of George Graham Vest, a renowned lawyer and presidential adviser, to present his case. Vest accepted the challenge that no other lawyer had dared to take for fear of the ridicule that was supposed at that time to defend an animal in the United States.

In 1870, a year after what happened, the day of the trial was finally announced. The defendant's lawyers based their argument on the economic loss that the death of the dog involved. It was just what George Graham Vest expected to hear. After reflecting a few seconds, Charles's lawyer got up from his chair, and as he walked from one side of the room to the other, he talked about the only thing that really mattered: a dog had been cruelly murdered. As if it were a film, Vest gave a speech appealing to the good qualities of a dog towards his family, the fidelity that keeps him forever no matter what happens. His words served to win the trial, a fact that also changed the judicial history of the United States regarding the rights of animals. In addition, today in the vicinity of the Court of Warrensburg stands a statue in memory of Old Drum and this judicial battle that marked a precedent.

This was part of the allegation that Charles's lawyer made to do justice for the death of his dog:

"Knights of the jury: The best friend a man can have can turn against him and become his enemy. Your own son or daughter, whom you raised with love and infinite attention, can show you ingratitude. Those who are closest to our hearts, those to whom we entrust our happiness and good name, can become traitors.

The money that a man may have can also be lost, he will fly when he needs it the most. The reputation of a man will be sacrificed for a moment of madness or weakness. People are willing to fall on their knees to honor our successes, they will be the ones to throw the first stone, when failure places clouds on our future.

The only, absolute and best friend that man has in this selfish world, the only one who will not betray or deny it, is his dog. Knights of the jury, a man's dog is at his side in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold floor where the wind blows and the snow falls, only to be with his master. The hand that has no food to offer will lick the wounds and bitterness that the confrontation with the harsh world produces. If misfortune leaves his master without a home and friends, the trusting dog only asks for the privilege of accompanying his master to defend him against all his enemies.

And when the last act arrives, and death makes its appearance and the body is buried in the cold earth, it does not matter that all the friends have left. There next to the grave, the noble animal will remain, its head between its legs, the eyes sad but open and alert, noble and sincere, beyond death ".
