I love my travel mug. It keeps drinks hot or cold for a long time. Despite it looking like it is made of plastic, it is actually stainless steel; the white color is an enamel paint layer.

Don’t want a mug? How about a shirt?

A Quick Knife Cutting Tip

Knife danger
One of the biggest dangers when using a kitchen knife is having the blade slip and cut you. This often occurs when a piece of food gets under the knife tip, so when you rock the knife forward as you slice or chop, it slips.

To prevent this, here is a quick tip that can help:

Angle the top of the knife away from you. If you’re right handed, angle the knife to the right. If you’re left handed, angle the knife to the left.

Why does this help?
As you cut, the pieces of food tend to stick to the knife and get pushed upwards, eventually falling over the top of the knife. By angling the top away from you, they fall away rather than onto what you are still trying to cut.

This makes for faster chopping or slicing, plus reduced danger of knife slippage on a piece of food at the tip.

Try it and see! Just a slight angle will do.

From Service Dog Failure to Surfer Dog Success!

You’ve heard the expression, “Be yourself”?

You’ve heard that we should each develop those gifts and talents inherent within us in order to be the best we can be?

Richochet was born to be a service dog. His owner began training him from the day he was born. He was naturally gifted, and his future looked promising.

But as he grew, his instincts took over. He started chasing birds. He would be a danger to a disabled person. His life as a service dog would never be fulfilled.

Then his owner decided to nurture another one of his natural instincts…surfing!

Watch this heart-warming video to see how he was trained and how he is helping people in a different way.

Want to get off your medication?

Do you want to get off your medication?

89% of people in this country take prescription drugs for chronic health conditions. That’s almost everyone. Does that alarm you?

We start medicating children in this country, putting them on drugs to control conditions such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Autism. They become prescription drug users as early as age 5.

You are the exception to the rule if you do not take prescription drugs. You might feel abnormal. You might even wonder what’s wrong with you.

On the other hand, if you are taking prescription drugs, you might be sick of the high costs, the side effects, or the fact that you are destined to be taking them the rest of your life.

Want to do something about it?

The healthcare system is spiraling out of control. Costs are increasing, health is diminishing, and we seem to be getting nowhere, even with renewed efforts by the Obama Administration to reform the system.

Clearly you need to take matters into your own hands and make choices that make sense to you.

Ask yourself just one question: Am I getting better or worse?

If you’re getting worse, or not getting better, why continue to do what you’ve been doing?

Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
