Family

Fitness

Ken presents You Are NEVER Too Old to Strength Train posted at Unstoppable Strength, saying, “Discover why age is NOT an excuse to avoid strength training. In fact, strength training can reverse aging and help you live longer!”

Charles Chua C K presents Be Enthusiastic Be Alive posted at All About Living with Life.

General

James Nara presents Happiness Golden Rule: The Secret of Socrates posted at The Secret to Be Happy and Feel Fulfilled, saying, “This post is part of a series of special articles about happiness, seeking what I call the happiness golden rules. These are the key guidelines, the conditions you need to satisfy in order to genuinely and instantly become a happier person. This post's happiness golden rule is based on a quote by Socrates, the famous Greek philosopher. "The secret of happiness, you see, is not found in seeking more, but in developing the capacity to enjoy less." – Socrates (469 BC–399 BC) It's amazing that almost 2500 years have passed since Socrates "revealed" his secret for happiness but we still don't seem to get it. And the majority of us simply don't follow it. I genuinely believe Socrates is right. Let me explain why.”

Health

Consumer Boomer presents Alzheimer's Insurance posted at Consumer Boomer, saying, “It is a good idea to think about having insurance to cover Alzheimer's care. It is one less thing to worry about should you or a loved one be stricken with Alzheimer's disease.”

Emilia Klapp presents Artificial Flavors Are Heavily Used in the Processing of Food posted at The Diabetes Club, saying, “Canning, freezing and dehydrating processed foods destroy their natural taste. This means these types of foods need to be "repaired" in order to provide the flavor, consistency, and aroma of the original food. And here is where "the flavor industry" comes into place. In fact, without the flavor industry, fast food will not exist.”

Humor

GoingLikeSixty presents What’s the phoner stoner aloner roaner boner? posted at Baby Boomer Going Like Sixty, saying, “Marriage communications counseling courtesy of Thrust and Parry.”

Laura Grace Weldon presents Healing Power of a Good Snort posted at Laura Grace Weldon, saying, “Sometimes we have to shed our pretensions of strength and act like a character. Yes, there are untapped healing powers in a finely tuned snort.”

Retirement

Mary Edwards presents 10 Tips for Building Relationships in Your Retirement Community posted at Best Dating Sites.

Joe Plemon presents How to Have a Good Retirement When Things Are Looking Bad posted at Personal Finance By The Book, saying, “It is possible that all of the bad news about retirement could work in your favor.”

Work

Ann Tucker presents Are you insane? posted at Creative Boomer, saying, “Is doing what you were told getting you what you want? My thoughts about wanting to leave the cubicle and become an entrepreneur.”
