You absolutely need to pay attention to your daily protein intake. Why? Because you are losing muscle mass at an alarming rate, even while you are reading this article, unless you are doing something about it. You should aim for about 50 grams of protein per day, as a rough guideline. In addition to the protein, make sure you are doing some resistance training (that ugly word, EXERCISE) several times each week. If not, one day you may pick up your prescription bottle and not have the strength... Read Full Story

I would really like to start a discussion here concerning vaccines and the possible connection to diseases. There has been much published online regarding the connection between certain epidemics and the vaccines administered to prevent them actually CAUSING outbreaks. I believe that this preponderance of evidence, some from proven experts in epidemiology or medical research, must be considered before you submit yourself to another needle. For my part I am focusing on just what I need to do t... Read Full Story

I know, when you read that title you probably thought that I was going to write something about ...well, videos. But actually, that's a new acronym I just learned recently. It stands for Vaccine Induced Disease Epidemic Outbreaks. I'm not going to attempt to convince you to take sides in this issue, but I hope you will take a few minutes to do a little personal research before you allow anyone to stick a needle in your arm to give you another vaccine for any reason.I was in one of the very ea...

I've signed up recently on the largest clearinghouse for employers and providers I've ever seen. If you are looking for ways to possibly supplement your retirement income with some work you can do online from home, you really must go check out oDesk.com.

The pay method for most of them is assured by oDesk, and I'm impressed with the details the buyers (employers) provide. At the mome... Read Full Story

I found myself last fall getting very busy at work, very busy at home, and just too busy to keep up with all the many writing projects I had set for myself. In addition to maintaining a steady stream of writing for several blogs, I had some projects I wanted to get done around the house and yard before winter set in. So I just had to step back and consider what plates I could keep in the air and which ones to let crash to the ground. This blog was one of the early casualties of my busy sch... Read Full Story

Life has become far more hectic since I retired last December. It is a bit surprising just how busy you can get when you don't have a job. I had visions of sleeping late, sitting by the pool with a good book, having a good meal with a glass of wine, staying up too late. Actually, I must admit that I have done all of those things since I retired, but only on a very few occasions. Fortunately I have been very busy with projects around the house and traveling with family, so that other boring li... Read Full Story

Last time I wrote, life was hectic, I was very busy, and frankly I could not make time in my life for my favorite hobby, writing. Thats not a good state to be in. But then the unthinkable happened and suddenly I had all the time in the world. My company invited me, and about 100 of my peers, to take early retirement. They invited me to fire myself, and they offered some nice incentives. Now this was just before the whole economic system fell off the edge. Things were slowing, there were some ... Read Full Story
