Have you ever had a pattern only to find the project has changed and the pattern colour need to be changed as well.

Here are some pattern generators that are a lot of fun to play around with:

For Twitter

Once you find the tile section you want to use upload it as your twitter background and be sure to click "tile background" before you save.

For Websites

  1. Edit your css adding this line to the element you want to stripe:

    background-image: url("path-to-stripe.png");

    If you want to only repeat horizontally your tile (as in the case of tiles with gradient), you must add this line too:

    background-repeat: repeat-x;

Pineapple beer recipe and health benefits

December 7th, 2010 PhoenixCOZA Posted in My Thoughts No Comments »

Glass of pineapple
Glass Pineapple beer

I recall making pineapple beer as a boyscout and to a group of adventurous lads well , it was beer woohooo. The impatient youth  led to less fermentation and less alcohol content for good reason. The African drink has health benefits which were unbeknown to me.

Bromeliad has been found to be useful as an anti-inflammatory, and the treatment of acute sinusitis, sore throat and gout. The other beneficial properties of bromelaid aid in the digestion of other food, and can be used to treat digestive problems.  Australian research has found the stem contains molecules which can aid in the defense against cancer such as colon, ovarian and breast cancer.

This tropical fruit contains the antioxidant Vitamin C. It also contains bromelian. Bromelian is a mixture of enzymes that help to breakdown the amino acids in proteins. So,it’s also great for indigestion.

It’s a good natural anti-inflammatory so it relieves arthritis. In fact, it used to be used in recovery from tuberculosis and as a cold and flu vitamin C booster. Pineapple will even relieve a sore throat and bronchitis.It is believed to speed up coagulation of the blood. This is good for your heart.
