You’ve probably noticed the escalating hype and hysteria surrounding the swine flu pandemic as colder months approach and the number of worldwide cases climbs. It’s true the virus is spreading.
Much more important, however, is the fact that reported cases continue to be symptomatically mild, requiring little or no medical intervention. And deaths from the H1N1 virus remain extremely low, at less than one half of one percent of…

Does this statement sound right to you?
“Vaccine makers and federal officials will be immune from lawsuits that result from any new swine flu vaccine, under a document signed by Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius,” reported the Associated Press last month.
How does this statement make you feel?
I find it unsettling. If I subscribed to a vaccine mindset, I'd feel like a human guinea pig, meaning I would feel as though my is health and well…

Seen near Durham, NC, on US Hwy 15-501 at Lamm's Grove intersection.
No doubt, Mr Obama has inherited a mess....and it takes time, careful planning and wisdom to fix problems -- especially big ones.
Not for nuthin', but didn't Mr Obama win North Carolina in the presidential election? Wow...it doesn't look like the people are so happy about that 'change' these days, now that they see where he's going with it.
My, how…

Writer/Director/Producer John Hughes died today in New York at the age of 59.
If you had a pulse in the 80's, you saw his films...."The Breakfast Club", "Sixteen Candles", "Pretty In Pink", "Vacation", "Planes, Trains and Automobiles", "Home Alone" and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". He launched the careers of many young actors and gave us a zillion memorable lines. The soundtracks were the sound of a generation and sold millions. And we all learned that…

I believe both parts are important.
Take the word "word" and write it down 5 or 6 times with no spaces....like this:
wordswordswordswordswordswordswords
Looks like "swords", doesn't it?
Our words can calm, comfort, create chaos and/or cut like a knife. Many people are not trained how to talk to others, so it's important that we are mindful of how our words will sound when they reach the ears that hear them and hearts that feel them.
When we…

"New homes are full of questions and possibilities. What color to paint the walls? How to arrange the furniture? What to plant in the garden? The Obama family must have asked a lot of those same questions when they moved into the White House. However, the first lady's dreams of growing an organic vegetable garden have been dragged down by a previous resident that refuses to leave: sludge.
Various sources within the Buzz are reporting that…

There are mind-boggling numbers of supplements available on today's market. In addition to the primary ingredients, many products contain other questionable ingredients in the form of fillers, additives, and excipients. An excipient is a substance added to the supplement as a processing or stability aid. One ingredient, magnesium stearate (also know as stearic acid), is a potentially toxic metal additive from pill production. Another ingredient,…

Men with stronger muscles from regular weight training are up to 40 percent less likely to die from cancer, according to new research.
The findings suggest that muscular strength is as important as staying slim and eating healthy when it comes to protecting your body against deadly tumors.
A team of experts tracked the lifestyles of over 8,500 men for more than two decades. Each volunteer had regular medical check ups that included tests of their muscular strength. The men…

Dr. Paul L. Williams
“In my own life, in my own small way, I have tried to give back to this country that has given me so much,” she said. “See, that’s why I left a job at a big law firm for a career in public service.“
-- Michelle Obama
No, Michele Obama does not get paid to serve as the First Lady and she doesn’t perform any official duties. But this hasn’t deterred her from hiring an unprecedented number of staffers to cater to her every…

Watershed event in history of mercury fillings coming this week
The turning point of our movement comes this week. Because of our landmark lawsuit, the U.S
Food and Drug Administration must now set the ground-rules for the use of mercury fillings, an
action that agency refused to take for 30 years until we filed the case of Moms Against Mercury et
al. v. Von Eschenbach.
Due to our years of work -- your work, my work, this movement’s work -- our moment has…

Complacency in America is coming to an end. Those who are complacent will not fare well through coming economic, cultural and political turmoil, as they will be forced to adapt and learn new skills. People who are adaptable, self-reliant and determined will find plenty of success in whatever follows our nation's upcoming changes.
You have more options than you may think. You are not stuck in any particular job or health status. You can change your circumstances by making new,…

Did you know you have near-total control over your own health? It's true.
Why wait for the government to mandate a new system of forced care coverage at rip off prices?
Create your own health care plan today by upgrading your diet, boosting your exercise and making high quality lifestyle choices.

There has been much discussion about childhood vaccines and their relationship to autism. Bobby Kenndy, Jr and Joe Scarborough discuss Thimerosal, a preservative used in (childhood) vaccines which is said to cause Autism and many learning disabilities, such as ADD, ADHD, speech delay, hyperactivity and other childhood disorders. Thimerosal breaks down to release neurotoxic ethyl mercury. Mercury causes neurotoxicity in humans, especially in fetuses and small infants whose brains are still…

Note: This is not my personal story, but it sure made me think about how tolerant we've become. Just switch out the location, characters, and particulars and insert your own - we all share a similar story.
We have acquiesced many times in the face of confrontation --- even at our greatest expense. And where are we now? Faced with challenges that seem too much to handle, so we expect someone else to come in a clean up the mess. Well, clean up costs big money. And in the case of our…

If you want to know why U.S. businesses increasingly outsource jobs to other countries, just add up the cost of doing business in America: As an employer, you have to pay not only higher wages than most other countries, but you also have to pay for the lost productivity and missed days due to the astonishingly poor health of the U.S. workforce.
Now, under the new Obama health care reform bill, you'll have to pay an additional eight percent of your payroll as a new tax to cover the…
