| Article Title :: It's a small world |
| |
|
Has anyone seen my extra digital camera battery? I'm that
desperate.
I am not adapting well to this world where valuable electronics
are growing smaller every year. Everything about my camera is
precarious.
Instead of a closet full of bulky photo albums which are
difficult to lose (or in my case, stacks of photos stuffed in
shoe boxes), the visual montage of my life over the last five
years is sitting on a perfectly fallible hard disk on my laptop.
None of the backup options work for me.
I was thinking about backing up all my photos on CDs, but with
CDs strewn randomly around the house and in the car, I'm worried
that my irreplaceable pictures from Penang and Santo Domingo
will be discar (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Laughter Really Is The Bet Medicine! |
| |
|
Did you know that according to research, children laugh about
400 times a day while adults only laugh about 15 times a day?
Some how, as we got older we lost the ability to laugh. Could it
be that putting more humour and laughter into our day will
improve our health and wellbeing?
In an article written by Drs. Gael Crystal and Patrick Flanagan
they stated that; "Scientists have found that laughter is a form
of internal jogging that exercises the body and stimulates the
release of beneficial brain neurotransmitters and hormones.
Positive outlook and laughter is actually good for our health!
More than ever, scientific evidence suggests that laughter
really is one of the best medicines."

| Article Title :: Chicken Rearing 101: How Not to Raise Chickens |
| |
|
Chick: A hatchling
Capon: A castrated male used for meat. (How much could that
yield?)
Pullet: A female chicken under one year old.
Hen: A female chicken over one year of age
Rooster: A male chicken over one year of age.
Raising Chickens for the first time can be intimidating. When I
first called the Feed Shop, I was trying to sound like a pro. I
asked, "Do you sell pullets?" "Yes", the man replied. "Are they
all females?" It's been an uphill battle ever since.
Pullet parenthood is an much of an adventure as child rearing,
only with more feces per pound of body weight. However, I've
been reading quite a bit on poultry matters. (Yes, my coolness
just turned over in its gra (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Reminisce and have fun with Refrigerator Magnets |
| |
|
It can be confidently said that a vast majority of refrigerators
here in America has at least two or more refrigerator magnets
attached to them. Every single person I know has them,
especially if there are kids in the household. Many special
memories, achievements, notes, photos and other mementos have
graced the refrigerator door and the refrigerator magnets are
what keep them in place. All of them are a constant reminder o
what binds the family together, special occasions that must
always be remembered to symbolize the core of the family. Each
piece that is brought upon on the refrigerator door represents a
part of our lives. A school work, art work, scribbling by a kid
is regarded as an (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Discovering Magnets and Their Many Uses |
| |
|
Magnets are very fascinating and interesting elements. They have
been used for so many functions as well as for having fun.
Toying around with magnets can provide entertainment for
children and adults alike. Playing with their incredible
capabilities makes one at awe; it's like magic how they cling to
metal and other magnets as well. Man has been engrossed with
their magnetic capabilities that they soon discovered how to
synthesize these capabilities bringing forth the electromagnet.
By simply coiling wires around into a loop, electric current is
passed through these coils and a magnetic field is created. This
can be very useful when natural magnets or permanent magnets are
not available or (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Show that you care with car magnets |
| |
|
How many opportunities can you get to do your part to help a
worthy cause and still make your car look beautiful?
Many groups now have been using car magnets as a fund raiser to
help finance their causes. Most of them are awareness program to
educate the people about their causes. They could b anything.
Some causes are for peace, asking for the return of American
troops to American soil, while some are for diseases, letting
the people know about the disease and at the same time gather
some funds for studies about the disease. Like the wristbands,
car magnets now are doing the same thing.
What was just a trend now has big social impacts. These car
magnets represent something beyond the de (read full article) |

| Article Title :: How to handle bad breath |
| |
|
We've all been there. You round the corner to your cubical ready
to start the day's work when you are suddenly accosted by the
familiar stench of a co-worker's bad breath.
"Here we go again...", you think. "Another 'H'-filled tirade
that won't ever permeate my ears because I'm too busy trying to
keep it from permeating my nose."
"So anywahhhhy," continues your co-worker, "Hhhhank
Hhhhenshhhhaaw from Hhhhuman Reshhhhourcess told me ouhhhhhr
401k plahhhhn is an outstahhhhnding invehhhhhstment
optiohhhhhn..."
Somehow, we'd like to think that our forced smile and wilting
eyelashes might tell the offending party that there's something
less than stellar about the way they are coming across.

| Article Title :: The Perks of Global Warming |
| |
|
Marya Mannes once wrote, "The earth we abuse and the living
things we kill will, in the end, take their revenge; for in
exploiting their presence we are diminishing our future."
Obviously Ms. Mannes preferred the status quo - health, sanity,
logic, blah, blah, blah. Why? Green House Roulette is so much
more intriguing.
In the country, weather affects everything. For five years my
home of Western South Dakota has been gripped by drought. Water
and hay are vanishing. Farms and ranches are blowing away. While
the government bails out victims from Hurricanes and says,
'South Dawho?' our cattle are pissing dust mites. Fortunately,
things are looking up.
There is some good news! Those pesk (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Bob Cratchit was a lousy Clark |
| |
|
I can never watch any version of a Christmas Carol any more
because I keep getting bugged by one nagging question: If that
damn Bob Cratchit thinks he has it so bad with Scrooge, why the
hell doesn't he get out there and get himself another job?
You hear so much in the story about how miserly Scrooge is with
his, but you know what? I'll bet Scrooge must have been paying a
competitive wage for his clark. If Cratchit thought he should be
getting more for his work, then he should have found the
employer who would have paid him more and treated him better.
But he didn't. And do you know why? It's because he was a
slacker. Maybe Scrooge was paying less for his clarks then
anyone around him - (read full article) |

What If My Third Eye Is Myopic? Yoga and Me
Zander Sprague
Yoga and Me
I've been doing yoga for quite a few years. And I really enjoy
it. I ended up taking yoga the first time with a girlfriend of
mine. And at first I was really scared because I'm not that
flexible a person, and I thought, "How am I ever going to do
that?" But of course the reality is, you don't do yoga the way
you see it on TV, with people who have been doing it for 25
years and are all bendy. But actually start off slow, and do it.
I've tried many different types of yoga. I find Bickram yoga to
be too hot. And I like Iyengar very much. But the funny thing
about yoga and me is that I'm not sure that we're ent (read full article) |
