Take care of your teeth - "You can't handle the Tooth"
Sep 15, 2008 - 8:49:43 PM
By Health Writer
I learned my lesson after 40 years of taking my teeth for granted. The other day I went to the dentist because one of my molars was hurting. He took an x-ray of my teeth and found that I had a cavity. I was not surprised and he quickly filled it.
I had not been to the dentist for over 2 years since that day and so I was really not surprised that I had a cavity. The visit cost me $127 since I had dental insurance. I went home thinking my problem was solved.

What I need to know about Erection Problems
Mar 3, 2008 - 10:35:23 PM
By NKUDIC
Erectile problems are not funny at all if you are the one with the problem. At our age, the likelihood of this happening is only increasing.
Erection problems used to be called "impotence." Now the term "erectile dysfunction" is more common. Sometimes people just use the initials ED.

School killings - the social proof we are creating

What is happening to our society. My daughter is a student at NIU and lives in the residence hall right next to the location of the tragic shootings. NIU, Virginia Tech, Columbine, on and on and on.
This time at NIU I hear people saying how unexpected it was. How he was such a smart person. How nobody saw it coming...even so called experts. Even her close friends. Or are they just denying they ever suspected something.
I am not going to judge these people, nor am I going to judge the killers. They did a terrible thing. This is undeniable.
Who is to blame? Let's see.

Meditation - A Great Way to Relax for men
Jan 15, 2008 - 10:51:53 PM
By Exercise Writer
If you have not tried meditation you may be missing something that could change your life. I have been meditating off and on for a couple years, but I recently read this book after attending a course in which we meditated. I highly recommend this straight forward book on meditation. It is available at Amazon. I borrowed mine from the library.
Posture of Meditation
In the book, the author explains the importance and relationship of alignment, relaxation and resileince. Even if you have meditated in your yoga class, this book can only help enhance your experience.
So what are you waiting for. Slow down and enjoy the silence.
