Politics, News & Issues > Food & Agriculture Bio-fuels: Are they worth producing?

With the current price of a barrel of oil, coupled with the political unrest in the Middle East, it would seem that producing alternative means of fuel would be a widely accepted concept, embraced by both consumers and government alike. But surprisingly, it's not the clear-cut, resounding "yes" decision one would expect. In ...

Entertainment > Music Reviews (Other) Great lyrics of our times

I was always under the impression that YES, whose popularity peaked in the seventies, was the most creative and uniquely sounding band from that time period. The fact that they have sold over 30 million records and are still together today, reinforces that opinion. Regarding outstanding musical lyrics, their song, "Turn of t...

Health & Fitness > Fitness & Exercise Tips Simple ways to add exercise to your day

By simply taking notice of your daily "junk" e-mails advertisements from stores and websites you have visited, products and financial advice you will never use, bargains on vitamins and medication, endless humor, political satire, etc., you get the notion that today's world is consumed with meaningless and time-consuming dis...

Travel > Accommodation Tips & Advice How to get the most from your stay in a luxury hotel

Luxury hotels are all about that – luxury. They possess both the ability and the desire to cater to all of our needs – so allow them to do just that. While you may find yourself in unchartered waters, when it comes to being pampered, catered and spoiled to some degree (assuming that the majority of us are not roc...

Travel > Accommodation Tips & Advice How to choose a bed and breakfast

My preference for choosing a Bed and Breakfast is via the "new-fashioned" way. Before deciding on a B & B, I will employ several internet sites to begin my search for paradise those few days or weeks of vacation, so vitally important to one's general well-being. A realtor's familiar slogan "Location, Location, Location," bec...

Entertainment > Music (Other) Song lyrics: Open to interpretation

The late 60’s and early 70’s was the timeline of which many bands extended the rock and roll genre from previous decades. That music - music so impressionable, so diverse, and so unique, that, in today’s world, calling it “rock” or “rock and roll” simply does not do it justice. No, t...

Travel > Travel Planning & Advice Travel and the human function and needs

Most articles regarding travel are generally comprised of wonderful vacations, helpful travel tips and must-see destinations. However, the basis of this article is on tragedy and misfortune, and the moral and ethical questions that have arisen, as a result of an extended vacation incurred by someone who may not have been a p...

Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Summer

Summer, also known as the summer solstice, is the time of year when the earth's axis is tilted more towards the sun than at any other time in the year (as opposed to winter, when its axis is tilted the furthest from the sun). And, according to Wikipedia, the term solstice is Latin for the sun (sol) and for its apparent lack ...

Celebrations & Holidays > New Year's The psychology of New Year's resolutions

Of all the days in the calendar year to be one’s favorite – birthday, anniversary, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas - just to name a few, New Year’s Day remains the most desired and the most anticipated day of the entire year, for many. And it has little to do with having a compensated day off...

Health & Fitness > Fitness & Exercise Tips How to buy motion-control shoes

Having been a runner most of my adult life, and also during my childhood (we were seemingly ALWAYS running around as kids back then, which has become a lost art to many children today), I've become quite knowledgeable, by default, about athletic shoes in general.
