How to Cook Wahoo
Wahoo! I have to admit, I love the name of this fish. I also love how it tastes.
Wahoo is not exactly the cheapest fish in the seafood market, nor is it one that's always readily available. There are two reasons for this that I'm aware of:
1) Wahoo is in high demand from seafood connoisseurs who prize it for its delicate, white, high-quality flesh.
2) Wahoo is a real loner among fish. It rarely schools with others of its kind, so fisherman are lucky to ever find more than one or two in any given haul. Solitary individuals are generally taken as a "bycatch" with tuna and other large species.
As a side note, wahoo is a very fast running fish--some say the fastest fish in the world. A few people have claimed that its name comes from the shout of "Wahoo!" by those fishermen who manage to hook one. (Others say, though, that it comes from the name of Oahu, one of the Hawaiian islands.)
Wahoo can reach up to 6 feet in length, and weigh up to 100 pounds, so a single fish--if and when someone is lucky to find and catch one--can provide a good deal of meat.
You can bake or grill wahoo and it will make a fine meal either way.
Baked Wahoo
Ingredients
3 lbs. of wahoo
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon lime juice
1/2 cup pickle relish
2 tablespoons chopped chives
Directions
Mix mayonnaise, lemon and lime juice, pickle relish, and chives. Coat the fish all over with this mixture. Wrap fish in aluminum foil. Bake for 1/2 hour in oven preheated to 350 degrees F. If fish does not appear to be thoroughly cooked after 1/2 hour, bake for another 10 minutes.
Simple Grilled Wahoo
Ingredients
4 wahoo steaks
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
Directions
Whisk together olive oil, lime and lemon juice, paprika, and red pepper in a small bowl. Place wahoo in a dish. Pour the marinade mix over the fish, place in refrigerator, and let stand for half an hour. Remove wahoo steaks from fridge, remove from pan, and grill directly over charcoal for 15 minutes, turning once during that time. You can use the leftover marinade mix to baste the fish while it is grilling.

Everything You Need To Know About Fruit Salads
Most of the people know only one thing about fruit salads; and that is how to eat them. How could you eat something that you know nothing about? Well, aside from the fact that they are delicious?
A fruit salad is a delicious dish with different kinds of fruit, sometimes served submerged in their own fruit juice, or lathered with syrup. It is oftenly served as an appetizer, if not that, dessert. Eitherway, fruit salads are definitely delicious, you can have them for both appetizer and dessert.
Making your own fruit salad is not hard; you just need to prepare its ingredients. And the ingredients used are neither extinct nor hard to find, you can just whip out your wallet and make the march to the nearest grocery store.
It needs one pint of basket of fresh California strawberries, which you are supposed to stem and make into halves; a teaspoon of finely chopped fresh mint or a half teaspoon of dried mint; a half cup of light sour cream; lettuce leaves; a half teaspoon of honey; two cups of fresh fruits that are in season. See? These ingredients do not require you to go hiking up in the mountains, looking for exotic fruits.
For you to make a strawberry dressing, you must puree an ample amount of the strawberries in an electric bender, about a half-cup, to make a ¼ cup of pureed strawberries. In a separate bowl, stir the puree, together with mint and honey, into a sour cream so that they will all blend. In assembling your fruit salad, line individual salad plates that contain lettuce. Arrange the strawberries that you have reserved with the other fruits on the lettuce and top with the strawberry dressing. Sounds good, huh? You could bet that this tastes even better.
Yes, you now know how to make a fruit salad after knowing the necessary ingredients. But still, do you know where fruit salads came from? This is added knowledge, thus, it would be best if you keep this pieces of information in your memory.
The origin of fruit salads relies highly on what you initially mean by "fruit salad". Fruit salads that are made up of combinations of different fresh, dried, candied or sugared, and stewed fruits or vegetables. This type of fruit salad originated from the ancient times. The ingredients and the recipes that are used depended on what were available in the country, or if what ingredients were in season. They also depend on the socio-cultural attitudes of the people toward the ingredients, whether the fruits were socially considered to be healthy or not.
The fruit salad, as we know of it today, is a production of the mid-nineteenth century. There has been unearthed culinary evidence that confirms the saying that sometimes, fruits salads are purposely mixed with sugar and alcohol, thus, given the term "fruit cocktail". The non-alcoholic variation of this recipe, also the jellied fruit salad, was famous in the 1920s. In the period of the World War II, fruit salads were introduced to the world as a proper supplement of Vitamin C, and were, in fact, included in the American diet.
However, fruit salads in the European countries evolved quite differently. The recipes contained amounts of mayonnaise. Have you heard, or better yet, eaten a Waldorf salad? Well, this is the name of the said fruit salad that is lathered with mayonnaise.
Now is the time when you can say that you know everything you need to know that concerns fruit salads. Fruit salads contain one hundred twenty-three calories, two grams of protein, eleven milligrams of cholesterol, four grams of fat, and twenty-one grams of carbohydrates. What more can you ask for?

Steroid Alternatives
Steroids are not an option because you are a competitive athlete participating in a sanctioned sport that mandates drug testing, or you aren't fond about man boobs and shrunk junk, or because you actually respect the law. But with age testosterone does decline and that explosive strength and seemingly overnight transformation into the Incredible Hulk is now only a memory for many. Others want a little help to move with their goals and of course there is the hard gaining ectomorph who fears being mistaken for a flagpole on the beach come every summer. The most important step is a strong work ethic and training program, specific to you and your body. In addition to such a regimen there are an increasing number of products that actually deliver on their bold claims without setting off the pee detectors. Below are a couple natural alternatives to steroids:
Arachidonic acid (A.A.) is being blown up as if was the genome for Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dorian Yates, and Lee Haney fused. Arachidonic acid is an essential fatty acid located in the cellular membranes of the brain and muscles. A study at Baylor University opened the door for A.A. 31 male subjects were put on a resistance training program bench consisting of the following tasks: one-repetition maximum on bench press, leg press, and the Wingate anaerobic capacity sprint test. These were each performed after 0, 25, and 50 days of arachidonic acid supplementation. The subjects demonstrated greater peak power after just 25 days. BINGO! Not exactly... The study also reported that no significant gains in strength, size, or test levels. Molecular Nutrition's XFactor, Universal Nutrition's Animal Test, and Axis labs Hemodraulix all feature A.A and are all great natural alternatives to steroids.
Divanil is found in stinging nettle. One cannot get the same benefits from supplementing stinging nettle instead of divanil since the amount of stinging nettle one would need to ingest is unrealistic (think resveratrol supplements vs. drinking red wine). A familiar name, Dr. D (Dana Houser M.D.), tested divanil in 2007 using Activate Xtreme. His findings, which were confirmed both from personal observations and from a gauntlet of physiological tests, showed positive results for divanil despite his increased levels of dht after using Activate Xtreme. He tested Activate Xtreme's products more thoroughly, pinpointing divanil as being responsible for the gains he experienced. There have not been many other studies done on divanil so it is difficult to analyze it analytically. Most users have been satisfied with the divanil containing products: Activate Xtreme (Driven Sports), Animal Test (Universal Nutrition), Mass Addiction (Anabolic Addiction), Mass FX (Anabolic Extreme) and T Bomb II (MHP).
T Bomb II stands unique since it also stacks a zinc-magnesium-copper blend with other items like fenugreek, avena sativa, and mushrooms (cordyceps) in its blend. It all sounds like a salad but the reviews have been favorable. I'm not advocating its efficacy over the other companies but just noting it's additional use of more rare components. Tonkat Ali or Longjack Eurofloria has also finally been vindicated from the "no evidence group." Even still, the evidence pointing to increases in mass and strength from supplementing tonkat ali were conducted on a non-representative sample of the typical athlete. Many supplements use tonkat, but only a handful have garnered fair reviews. This could either be because of the blend or simply a condition of the number of people who tried a certain product and reported on it. Tonkat Ali is made by a myriad of companies. NOW Nutrition's TestoJack offers a great deal and adds ZMA to its blend. Xyience's Xtreme Test has garnered almost nothing but awful reviews but worked very well for me.
To round out the list of natural alternatives to steroids, I have to say something about Fizogen's offerings of 17-Bol and M1-Bol. Though the names and nomenclature sound like these are some kind of pro hormones they are not.17 Bol employs a trademark formula called "Cyclostanodrol." It's a plant sterol that scientists and non-pretentious companies like Universal Nutrition, call ecdysterone. But hell, cyclostanodrol sounds BAD ASS. Unfortunately, ass bad is more apropos. Users gave unfavorable reviews for the most part. Furthermore, ecdysterone has shown to be useful in clinical trials. Useful for lowering cholesterol not for raising test levels or for any anabolic activity it may provide.
Another option for natural alternatives to steroids an anti estrogen. Many in the sports world still see this as "cheating" since you are altering hormone levels even if it's not technically illegal. Hopefully, I'll write a future article discussing the benefits and pitfalls of products using aromatase inhibitors like 6 Bromo, 6-Oxo, Formestane, and ATD.

Grinders For Flax Seed
Flax seed is very beneficial to your diet, but to get the most benefits from it you should grind it. This allows it to digest easier and for more of the nutrients to be released into your body. There are several different types of flax seed grinders to choose from. Handheld grinders look very similar to a pepper grinder. One of the best is the OXO grind-it grinder. It holds up to 2.8 ounces of flax seed and offers five different grinding choices so you can get it from coarse to fine. The best place to buy it on the internet is Amazon.
Some people don't like hand grinders because they don't use electricity. There are plenty of electric flax seed grinders to choose from as well. Krup's Premium is a fast one that will quickly grind up to 3 ounces of flax seed from coarse to fine. It doesn't take up much counter space and has an easy to pour spout. A coffee grinder can be sued to grind fax seed. The Braun KSM2 Electric Blades grinder is a great choice. If you have a coffee grinder try it to see how well it works on flax seed.
Flax seed is a great item to add to your diet because it contains the essential fatty acids, Lignan, Mucilage, protein, vitamins, and minerals. You will get the most benefits from flax seed if you grind it, then add it to cereal, salad, and smoothies.
The market of flax seed grinders gives you many great options including hand held grinders, electric grinders, and coffee grinders. It is very easy to use these grinders so that you have ground flax seed for cereals, salads, and smoothies. This is a great way to get more essential fatty acids, Lignan, and Mucilage.

How to Clean a Suit Jacket
If you are a man there is pretty much no way you can get through life without owing a suit coat. The suit jacket is an extremely important part of your wardrobe even if you do not wear a suit to work, you will need to have quick access to one throughout your life. Weddings, interviews, funerals, special events; let's face it a suit is essential. Ideally, the best way to keep your jacket clean is by using a professional dry cleaner, sometimes expensive professional cleaning is not a option due to price and/or time constraints. This article covers how to clean your suit jacket at home without having to take it to the dry cleaners. Some of the key items you will need to get the job done yourself are;
* A clothes brush
* A stain removal stick, pen or spray
* A clothing steamer or iron with a steam feature
* A soft clean cloth (can be purchased at clothing stores or dry cleaners)
* A suit hanger
The first thing to do is take out your clothing brush and brush away any loose dust, dirt and lint from your jacket. After brushing, hang the coat on a hanger (wooden is better than plastic) now re-brush the coat focusing on the side panels and sleeves.
Next, use your stain removal pen or stick to take out any small stains that are on the jacket. You can get a stain stick at most grocery stores or drug stores in the same isle as laundry detergent. Be careful when using the stain removal pen if you use too much solution you can damage your jacket or cause a different type of stain.
Next, Steam your jacket using a clothing steamer or a iron with steam feature. Hang the coat on your hanger and hold the steam about 10 inches from your suit. If you are using an iron, you may need to hold it closer. Make sure you steam the entire suit on all sides.
Next, use your clean cloth to lightly dust off the jacket and buff up the surface of it. Try and rub the cloth in line with the nap of the fabric.
Finally leave the garment to hang in a room with very good air flow this will help dry the jacket from steaming and air it out, leaving it smelling clean.
