No home left behind...

When I read stories like this, I am reminded that the U.S. ain't all it's cracked up to be. Politics, money and beuracracy can be a lethal poison for any country, developed or "third world".

Adventist longevity on CNN.

ADVENTISTS AND LONGEVITY IN THE NEWS AGAIN — Terry Butler, Co-investigator of the Adventist Health Study-2, reports that CNN has been at Loma Linda University for two this week following up on National Geographic’s story about Adventists and longevity. They’ve been interviewing some of the older people there. The report will be shown on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360 degrees”, Wednesday, November 16, at 10 pm ET.


You can do anything - but not everything.

I hope as many people as possible that I know can read this article, I know for sure I need to read it! ( link at end of excerpt )


There is always more to do than there is time to do it, especially in an environment of so much possibility. We all want to be acknowledged; we all want our work to be meaningful. And in an attempt to achieve that goal, we all keep letting stuff enter our lives.The problem is that we also want to finish what we start. Much of the stress that people feel doesn’t come from having too much to do. It comes from not finishing what they’ve started. That’s why a lot of my work has to do with how people deal with their input — email, phone messages, reports, conversations. Everything that isn’t where it should be is an open loop, an incomplete, a distraction that slows you down.…if you allow too many things that represent undecided, untracked, unmanaged agreements with yourself and with others to gather in your personal space — that will start to weigh on you. It will dull your effectiveness. You’ve got to dig into the mess and put those things to rest. Productivity is about completion.

A great post from Kirk Franklin's blog

Get off the grid dang it!

THIS is the future of solar energy!

Shortly after dawn on a typical Arizona morning, a wave of photons born eight minutes earlier in the big yellow fusion reactor in the sky clears the Superstition Mountains and sweeps across Phoenix and the Valley of the Sun. On a fenced-in stretch of gravel at the edge of booming Mesa - the largest suburb in the US - the stream of newly minted light strikes what looks like a lunar lander, all bundled wires and glinting aluminum. The photons ricochet off 25 mirrors arranged in a 5- by 5-foot square and converge in a shaft of light brighter than the sun at high noon. The tightly focused stream crashes into 100 square inches of silicon suspended over mirrors, sending a spray of electrons dancing down a copper wire. A CPU revs and tiny motors whir. As one, the mirrors adjust their positions ever so slightly. And the latest attempt at keeping pace with humanity's epic appetite for energy begins another day of pulling power from the sky. read more

Is Technology Taking Over Your Life?

Is Technology Taking Over Your Life?: "Some Ways to Know That Technology Has Taken Over Your Life

1. Your stationery is more cluttered than Warren Beatty's address book. The letterhead lists a fax number, e-mail addresses for two on-line services, and your Internet address, which spreads across the breadth of the letterhead and continues to the back. In essence, you have conceded that the first page of any letter you write *is* letterhead.
2. You have never sat through an entire movie without having at least one device on your body beep or buzz.
3. You need to fill out a form that must be typewritten, but you can't because there isn't one typewriter in your house -- only computers with laser printers.
4. You think of the gadgets in your office as 'friends,' but you forget to send your father a birthday card.
5. You disdain people who use low baud rates.
6. When you go into a computer store, you eavesdrop on a salesperson talking with customers -- and you butt in to correct him and spend the next twenty minutes answering the customers' questions, while the salesperson stands by silently, nodding his head.
7. You use the phrase 'digital compression' in a conversation without thinking how strange your mouth feels when you say it.
8. You constantly find yourself in groups of people to whom you say the phrase 'digital compression.' Everyone understands what you mean, and you are not surprised or disappointed that you don't have to explain it.
9. You know Bill Gates' e-mail address, but you have to look up your own social security number.
10. You stop saying 'phone number' and replace it with 'voice number', since we all know the majority of phone lines in any house are plugged into contraptions that talk to other contraptions.
11. You sign Christmas cards by putting :-) next to your signature.
12. Off the top of your head, you can think of nineteen keystroke symbols that are far more clever than :-)
13. You back up your data every day.
14. Your wife asks you to pick up some minipads for her at the store and you return with a rest for your mouse.
15. You think jokes about being unable to program a VCR are stupid.
16. On vacation, you are reading a computer manual and turning the pages faster than everyone else who is reading John Grisham novels.
17. The thought that a CD could refer to finance or music rarely enters your mind.
18. You are able to argue persuasively the Ross Perot's phrase "electronic town hall" makes more sense than the term "information superhighway," but you don't because, after all, the man still uses hand-drawn pie charts.
19. You go to computer trade shows and map out your path of the exhibit hall in advance. But you cannot give someone directions to your house without looking up the street names.
20. You would rather get more dots per inch than miles per gallon.
21. You become upset when a person calls you on the phone to sell you something, but you think it's okay for a computer to call and demand that you start pushing buttons on your telephone to receive more information about the product it is selling.
22. You know without a doubt that disks come in five-and-a- quarter-and three-and-a-half-inch sizes.
23. You own a set of itty-bitty screw-drivers and you actually know where they are.
24. While contemporaries swap stories about their recent hernia surgeries, you compare mouse-induced index-finger strain with a nine-year-old.
25. You are so knowledgeable about technology that you feel secure enough to say "I don't know" when someone asks you a technology question instead of feeling compelled to make something up.
26. You rotate your screen savers more frequently than your automobile tires.
27. You have a functioning home copier machine, but every toaster you own turns bread into charcoal.
28. You have ended friendships because of irreconcilably different opinions about which is better -- the track ball or the track *pad*.
29. You understand all the jokes in this message. If so, my friend, technology has taken over your life. We suggest, for your own good, that you go lie under a tree and write a haiku. And don't use a laptop.
30. You e-mail this message to your friends over the net. You'd never get around to showing it to them in person or reading it to them on the phone. In fact, you have probably never met most of these people face-to-face.
