You may have always wondered how a supermodel like Gisele Bündchenmaintains her enviable slim and toned figure. Now, thanks to her and her husband Tom Brady‘s personal chef, you needn’t wonder any longer.

Allen Campbell has told Boston.com that the superstar couple’s diet is made up of 80 per cent vegetables.

“So, 80 percent of what they eat is vegetables. [I buy] the freshest vegetables. If it’s not organic, I don’t use it,” says the private chef, adding that he also cooks with “whole grains: brown rice, quinoa, millet, beans” for the famous Boston-based family.

If you’re wondering what the other 20 per cent of their diet is made up of, it’s lean meats: “Grass-fed organic steak, duck every now and then, and chicken. As for fish, I mostly cook wild salmon.”

“I make conscious decisions to buy local and organic, and to stay away from GMOs, and to think about the future of the planet and the future of humans,” Allen says. “My philosophy is that a plant-based diet has the power to reverse and prevent disease.”

“If you just eat sugar and carbs – which a lot of people do – your body is so acidic, and that causes disease,” he adds.

That means that Gisele, 35, her husband Tom and their two children Benjamin, six, and Vivian, three don’t eat anything made with white sugar, white flour, gluten or MSG.

Allen also cooks with coconut oil instead of vegetable or olive oil, and uses Himalayan pink salt instead of iodised salt.

Tom has another restriction on his diet: the New England Patriots quarterback star doesn’t eat nightshades (fruits and vegetables belonging to the family of Solanaceae plants of the Solanum genus) because they aren’t anti-inflammatory. This rules out tomatoes, peppers, mushrooms, and eggplants from his plant-based diet.

According to Allen, the handsome star couple are “really laid back.”

“If I was cooking for anyone else who didn’t respect and appreciate my food as much as they did, it wouldn’t be as gratifying for me,” he reveals. “I think that’s what makes me happy at the end of the day.”

tasha Corrett is the best-selling author of three alkaline cookbooks includingHonestly Healthy, which brought the alkaline diet into the spotlight when it won itself celebrity fans in the form of Victoria Beckham, Jennifer Aniston andRobbie Williams.

Now the nuritionist has teamed up with Dream, makers of a dairy-free rice drink, to create three breakfasts that will kick off the day the healthy way – and they’re all non-dairy and contain superfoods. We’re talking about a milkshake with almond butter, a smoothie with goji berries and porridge with avocado, so you’ve got no excuse to miss the all-important meal of the day…

Berry tahini smoothie
For those of us who run out the door without a spare minute, whizzing up a few ingredients in the blender is as quick and easy as it could be. Natasha adds that “This smoothie is a perfect post-workout drink,” adding that thanks to tahini, you’ll think it’s a naughty treat.

The alkaline diet came to fame four years ago when Natasha launched her hugely popular Honestly Healthy cookbook, website and meal delivery service based on the alkaline eating principles.

How does the alkaline diet work? It aims to keep the body’s pH between 7.35 and 7.45 to create harmony and reduce the strain on the body’s digestive system. How? By avoiding “acid forming foods” such as dairy, meat, sugar and coffee and replacing them with plant foods and wholegrains.

Sabemos que la buena base del maquillaje (aparte de la base normal) es el buen delineado. Lograr un buen delineado es una misión casi imposible dirás, pero la verdad es que simplemente tienes que saber cómo hacerlo para que resulte exitoso.

Verás que tu pulso de “maraquero” no será un inconveniente después de que te dejemos estas 5 formas de delinearte y que quedes perfecta.

 

Aquí van:

 

1.- Delineado pin-up

Es muy sencillo y no batallarás casi nada, pueda que sea el elegido para la mayor cantidad de días de tu semana. 

 

Para lograr este delineado maquillarás la parte superior del ojo, trazarás una línea encima de tus pestañas  y otra que marcará una franja mediana en el párpado. La clave es que salga una punta ascendente un poquito más allá del límite de tu ojo. Para finalizar sólo rellenarás con negro y listo.

 

2.- Delineado ojo de gato.

Se llama así porque das un efecto felino cada que lo usas, y como tal, resulta ser uno de los delineados más atrevidos que puedas aplicar. Es importante que lo acompañes con rímel y un poco de  sombras  para lograr el efecto deseado, pero recuerda no excederte.

 

Para realizar este delineado vas a contornear todo tu ojo con delineador negro, después irás engrosando  la línea poco a poco hasta que llegues al grosor parecido de la imagen. Para finalizar termina con una punta ascendente  hacia afuera y rellénala. Cabe destacar que este es el delineado favorito de los hombres ya que el efecto que logras en tu mirada al aplicarlo, crea una sensación de misterio a la que ningún hombre puede resistirse, en serio, ninguno 

 

3.- Delineado completo.

Si bien con este delineado utilizas la misma técnica que el del ojo de gato sí es más discreto, la clave es que no hagas la punta tan larga y que utilices rímel de manera sutil.

 

Como nota te dejamos que este delineado no funciona muy bien si tienes ojos muy pequeños o rasgados, ya que tu mirada se verá opaca y oscura, casi como si quisieras matar a alguien.

 

4.- Delineado fino.

Este es probablemente el más fácil de hacer, ya que no involucra tanto rímel ni puntas prominentes. Lo único que tendrás que hacer es maquillarte el párpado y pasar una fina línea justo arribita de tus pestañas, para terminar con una punta ligeramente curveada. Te verás perfecta para reuniones en el campo o salidas express.

 

5.- Delineado griego.

Indudablemente todas las mujeres son preciosas y poseen hermosos atributos que enloquecen a cualquier hombre; ya sean grandes o pequeños sencillamente ningún chico se resiste a un par de “teclas” sin embargo, hay cosas particulares en las chicas de “bubis” grandes que las hace altamente especiales ¿Quieres saber de  qué se trata?

Interesante: 9 enfermedades transmitidas por los besos

Estos son los 10 problemas que solo las mujeres de pechos grandes entenderán muy bien:

1.- Las blusas con sujetador incluido no funcionan

El sujetador nunca va a ser de la talla que necesitan, ya hasta tienes unas tijeras favoritas para contar esa parte de tus blusas.

2.- Olvídate de usar bolsas de asa cruzada en el pecho. 

El asa de las bolsas se mete en el surco de las “boobs” entonces hace que se vean completamente amorfas, separadas y además es incomodo.

3.- Todo lo escotado es digno de parecer una “chica de la vida galante” 

No es que pensemos que ser “chica de la vida galante” esté mal, lo que está peor es que ni por error puedan ponerse algo escotado y no puedas evitar parecer empleada de “teibol”

4.- No existe un traje de baño que les quede.

Comprar un traje de baño se puede convertir en la peor pesadilla porque si tuviste mucha suerte y encontraste uno, tienes que comprar 2, uno para usar la parte de arriba y otro para usar la parte de abajo, el mismo no va a funcionar.

5.- Medida exacta para el uso de collares.

No se pueden usar collares largos por que se pierden entre las montañas y lejos de lucir lindos se ve horrible.

6.- Siempre tienen que cuidarse de accidentes.

There is something magical about rolling up your sleeves and getting stuck into a custom PC build of your own. Every person has an interesting take on how to do it best and the greatest part is that there is no right or wrong way. That is what I personally love the most when I’ve done my own builds. I’ve shared them on social media and seen the praise and criticism. Nothing wrong with either.

I want to share a really interesting build for you today done by Hans Peder Sahl. I have to say, this video that I’ve come across is one of the finest looking works of custom PCs I have seen. If this doesn’t fire you up to try do something with your next PC build, I don’t know what will.

Not everyone has the same budget when they are building a PC. While some enthusiasts might have be willing to spend a lot to ensure that they have the best that money can buy, others are on more modest budgets that require some restraint when purchasing parts.

GIGABYTE understands and has a number of motherboards geared towards users on a budget. Recently TweakTown's Steven Bassiri has a chance to review one of these boards, the GIGABYTE Z170XP-SLI, and gave it top marks. 

For those that don't know, the Z170XP-SLI is a value-oriented board that has support for NVIDIA's SLI as well as AMD's CrossFireX technology. This means that the board will support more than one NVIDIA or AMD card, which is great for users that want the power that two video cards can provide.

Steven says he liked the SLI support on the board, solid memory support at 3600 MHz, upgraded audio, and Intel NIC on the board.

Here are his final thoughts on the board:

The Z170XP-SLI has a lot of the latest features I come to expect from a Z170 motherboard above the $150 price range; USB 3.1, upgraded audio, Intel NIC, solid performance, and decent overclocking capabilities. That being said, this motherboard only costs $136 on Amazon making it a very good deal for those on a budget.The Z170XP-SLI can perform like more expensive motherboards and even overclock like them in the right conditions, but producing those conditions might be difficult, and that is why people pay more for better overclocking.

We are always excited when overclockers break records, especially when it's on our hardware. Our friend 8Pack recently crushed a number of World Records and Global First Place with 3D Mark Fire Strike and 3D Mark Vantage on a GIGABYTE X99 Champion motherboard.

Let's take a look at at the records 8Pack crushed.

First up is his Fire Strike score of 44583, which is a World Record. Aside from his GIGABYTE motherboard, he hit this score using 4x NVIDIA GTX 980 Ti cards and a Intel Core i7-5960X CPU clocked at 5,860 MHz.

On FireStrike Extreme, 8Pack was able to attain equally impressive results. Check it out below:

Next up lets take a look at his Vantage score. This was done on the same hardware, and as you can see the result was nothing short of stellar.

Moving down to the 3x FireStrike Vantage category, you can see that 8Pack maintains his lead. For this entry his CPU is clocked slightly higher at 5,865 MHz.

Finally, in the 2x GPU category 8Pack was able to break two Global First Place records.

First on FireStrike he was able to hit 36498:

And on Vantage he was able to bring in another Global First Place score of P111069:

8Pack's phenomenal scores is just another example of why GIGABYTE motherboards lead the industry in overclocking.

The Z170X-SOC Force is GIGABYTE's overclocker-focused board for the Intel 100 series chipset.

While you can overclock on any of our boards, the SOC Force is specially tuned for overclocking and provides features like the OC Touch panel on the front which make adjustments easy for those that have the motherboard out on a test bench.

Recently Steven Bassiri from TweakTown reviewed the Z170X-SOC Force and gave it a rating of 93%. Steven said that he liked the 4-Way SLI and three M.2 32Gb/s Slots, the High-Quality VRM, and excellent overclocking features available on the board.

Here's a summarized version of his final thoughts on the board:

The Z170X-SOC Force is built to be the largest, and most equipped overclocking motherboard GIGABYTE has to offer for Skylake, and it lives up to its legacy. The Z170X-SOC Force is the result of a long line of predecessors that filled in the same price range and feature set, and while there aren't many people who might make use of all its features, many people still look at it as their dream motherboard. The aesthetics of the Z170X-SOC Force are possibly the best of any OC series motherboard from GIGABYTE thus far.The Z170X-SOC Force is aimed at two different segments of the enthusiast population; those who want crazy amounts of GPUs and M.2 storage, and those who want strong overclocking features and performance. The Z170X-SOC Force is currently one of the better options if you are going to go for Z170 multi-GPU world records on HWBot, or if you want to build a super equipped gaming rig with the latest in storage technology.

The GIGABYTE 100 Series motherboards have a number of exciting features, but one of the most interesting has to be the Killer Network Controller from Rivet Networks.

Now normally network controllers aren't a huge source of innovation. People simply don't think of them as they do the CPU, GPU, or memory connectivity like M.2 or PCI-E. But the Killer NIC, found in select GIGABYTE Z170 boards, isn't an ordinary network controller. Its proprietary software can classify and prioritize traffic ensuring that latency sensitive applications, such as multiplayer games, will not be impacted while other things like downloads run in the background.

Recently Mark Nelson from The Tech Report visited Rivet Networks' headquarters for a briefing and posted a great writeup on the Killer NICs, explaining how the controllers work and putting them through their paces on various benchmarks.

Here's a brief rundown of the advantages it brings gamers:

Killer tells us its driver has been tweaked to minimize latency, so as soon as it gets any amount of data to send, it puts that data straight onto the wire. In contrast, a driver that doesn't prioritize latency may hold off on sending to do a couple of things. Such a driver might wait to combine multiple small payloads into a single packet if the destination is the same, or it may queue up multiple sends at a time to minimize the number of interrupts taken. Games usually send out data in 128-byte chunks or less, so Killer's driver should minimize the amount of time that game data spends in the network stack. In fact, the Killer Networking folks claim the E2400's latency performance beats the competition by up to 50% during single-application usage.

Here's what Mark found out during his benchmarking. As you can see, the Killer NIC beats the competition by a healthy margin. Check it out:

Hey guys,

I have for you the GIGABYTE Tweak Launcher (GTL) software to use on the Z170 chipset GIGABYTE motherboards to help you overclock in Windows. We’ve tested it on all versions of Windows OSes and it operates well. You can change various frequencies including base clock, CPU and Uncore ratios, various volts and voltage related parameters.

Happy OCing and be careful with this software, don’t go setting crazy voltage because you can kill hardware (for example, the settings in the screenshot were done using liquid nitrogen so we could use high voltage such as 1.45vcore on CPU and 1.84v on memory). On air cooling, these settings are not advisable. I would stick to 10% overvolt at most for regular OC rigs.

Over at eTeknix, Ryan Leiserowitz posted a review of our GIGABYTE GA-X99-SOC Chamption motherboard. Ryan is a hardcore overclocker, and this was his chance to put the board through its paces.

Ryan mentions in his review that the board has enough features for pro-overclockers, and is priced competitively enough that amateur overclockers don't have to think twice about including one in their next system build.

“From pro-overclockers to enthusiast system builders, if you’re wanting to push your hardware to the limit, the GX-X99-SOC is the perfect tool for the job,”  Ryan writes. 

In the end eTeknix gave the board their "Overclockers Dream" award. Thanks guys!
