Sunday, May 13, 2018

Of 493 people who took the survey, 316 provided enough information to be included in the analysis. For 138 of these participants, the researchers were able to confirm diabetes diagnosis, blood-sugar control measures, metabolic health measures and other outcomes with health care providers or through review of medical records. Forty-two percent of participants were children.

Follow the 5-to-1 Rule for Packaged Foods | NutritionFacts.org

Sunday, May 13, 2018

As fiber intake goes up, the risk of metabolic syndrome appears to go down, with less inflammation and an apparent step-wise drop in obesity risk. It’s therefore no surprise that greater dietary fiber intake is associated with a lower risk of heart disease: There is a 9 percent lower risk for every additional 7 grams a day of total fiber consumed, which is just some rice and beans or a few servings of fruits and veggies.

*** begin quote ***

1)  If you CONTROL YOUR MIND, you CONTROL YOUR LIFE.

This is the foundation of every success theory ever written. It’s the “eat healthier; exercise more” of self-help. It’s also where most people fail, because the mind is a fickle, petulant child that hates discipline. To clarify, “control your mind” means…

Doesn’t it always?

An “Audible Gasp” Was Heard When The Chicago Fed Unveiled Its “Solution” To The Pension Problem

Saturday, May 12, 2018

Submitted by Mark Glennon of Wirepoints An audible gasp went out in the breakout room I was in at last month’s pension event cosponsored by The Civic Federation and the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. That was when a speaker from the Chicago Fed proposed levying, across the state and in addition to current property taxes, a special property assessment they estimate would be about 1% of actual property value each year for 30 years.

This proposed tax would only address the five state pensions. What about the other 650-plus pensions in Illinois, particularly those for overlapping jurisdictions in Chicago which are grossly underfunded? The Fed was asked that at last month’s seminar and they, without explanation, said they didn’t bother to cover that.

*** end quote ***

“Steal” more from property owners to “solve” only a part of a problem that they have no role in creating?

Sounds like a “great” idea.

Wonder who will turn out the lights when the last property owner abandons Illinois?

What Reactions To A Maryland Sign Tells You About Anti-Gunners

Saturday, May 12, 2018

President Donald Trump may well be the most controversial president in history. Yes, much of that has to do with such a blatantly biased media that wants to make everything into a scandal ( remember when Trump got *gasp* two scoops of ice-cream?

The anti-gunners forget that next to the drug gangs, the American gun owners can be, are, would be the finest guerrilla army in world.

I hope that this case can be used to overturn the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee’s UNCONSTITUTIONAL gun ban.

Anyone feel treated by this fellow?

Where’s the GOFUNDME page for him?

Argh!

Can’t trust corporations to have their workers’ interests at heart. There’s only one person watching out for you and that’s you!  You need to be your own boss.

Success for future generations is: (1) ruthless financial discipline — no bad debt; (2) a life long interest in learning — education — a degree — they can’t take it away from you; (3) a NON-OFFSHORABLE white collar job in order to save big bux; (4) a blue collar skill for hard times — never saw a poor plumber; (5) one or more internet based businesses — your store is always open; (6) a free time hobby that generates income; and (7) a large will-maintained network of people who can “help” you.

Did the FBI plant an informant in the Trump campaign?

Sure sounds like they did.  And, where is the justification for it?

Were they “playing politics”?

If so, then the Agency has to be closed down.  Is the Praetorian Guard picking our next “Caesar”?

Are You a Satisfied “Customer” of the Federal Government?

Friday, May 11, 2018

“[A]ccording to the 2016 American Customer Satisfaction Index, the Federal Government ranks among the bottom of all industries in the United States in customer satisfaction;” Calling citizens customers is like calling slaves employees. “ Customer” implies that you could take your business elsewhere.
