IVR, or Interactive Voice Response: It's the scourge of the western world. And even if you don't know it by its official name, you certainly deal with IVR, probably on a weekly basis. IVR is better known colloquially as voice mail jail, voice mail hell, and other, less savory terms that I can't publish in this column. But whatever you call it, everybody hates "talking to the computer."

But just because IVR exists doesn't mean you have to take it sitting down... for hours on end. If you KNOW THE RIGHT CODE, you can bypass the computer and get right to a real person (or at least the queue to wait for a real person) with no trouble at all.

NEED HELP CHOOSING HEALTHY BREADS AND CEREAL?

When it comes to choosing a healthy breakfast cereal and loaf of bread, people are often confused.

Ideally, your bread and breakfast cereal should be whole grain and low-calorie. The BEST TOOL determining whether specific brands provide ample whole grains is to read their labels.

Check the food product's ingredient list and ensure one of the first ingredients starts with the word "whole" or "oats." Phrases without the word "whole," like stoned wheat, cracked wheat, and enriched wheat flour do not guarantee the presence of whole grain.
