<span id="goog_463294672"></span><span id="goog_463294673"></span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/"></a>I personally don't feel a need to collect lots of guns but some people do. I believe that should be thier right, unless there's proof that they are a danger to others. Just having the collection alone should not be considered proof. For me, I would be happy with just one or two of these. Some people choose to be judgemental about this. There's lots of excuses people find to be judgemental. What kind of person rides a Harley? What kind of person l likes to go off roading? What kind of person likes to collect guns? Or that person is treehugger. That person's a liberal. That person is a Republican. I could go on and on but I'm on a Droid (patience tester) so I'd rather not. My point here is that I'd like to see more people looking for reasons to work together and fewer people looking for excuses to be judgemental with each other. Keep in mind one of the methods the status quo uses to keep us "in line" is to keep us divided.</div>
Whether you're running a business or even just advancing a cause, being judgemental can set you back. It can also damage relationships with friends and relatives. I have a challenge for you. If you are finding that almost everyone around is not measuring up to your expectations. Try evaluating your expectations. </div>sunandsage1@gmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07945768708483355175noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1182945519309084675.post-73599613434965676772012-07-05T11:15:00.003-07:002012-07-05T11:15:54.796-07:00More Prescribed Burns may be needed<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">There may be no immediate solutions
in sight for the droughts but there may be something that can be done to reduce
the fire danger. Fire is an important
part of many ecosystems. Years of fire suppression
have been a significant factor in the decline of the health of the forests. We now have forests that will go up in flames
with just the slightest spark. The
situation has placed many communities in danger. I don</span>’<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">t believe there</span>’<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">s any relief in the near future.
</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">If done carefully, a mixture of
logging and prescribed burns near all communities that are in danger could go a
long ways. Logging would have to be done in a way to encourage forest health. Logging does not replace fire. There are some plant and tree species that
require fire in order to germinate. Maybe
it</span>’<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">s about time to put together
controlled burn teams. That will cost
some money but maybe it can be done for less than many people think. Here</span>’<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">s my idea. Free courses in controlled burn certification
could be offered by the land management agencies. There could be an incentive offered as well
to those who complete the courses. Upon
receipt of this certification, they are available to be part of controlled burn
teams. They could then be part of a controlled burn team that operates near
their home or an area of their choosing. These teams would initially be supervised by
paid management personnel who know about fire. Further certification would be
based on experience and performance.
Eventually it could turn into a paid supervision position with a land
management agency. They could even be
allowed to do controlled burns on their own land if they own a large tract of land
with wildfire potential. </span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">This could take some of the pressure
off of the land management agencies and the smoke jumpers along with reducing
the threat fires that destroy communities.
It could even put some people back to work who are unemployed. The federal government often moves very
slowly so this may need to be started on a local level.<o:p></o:p></span></div>sunandsage1@gmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07945768708483355175noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1182945519309084675.post-48045280185808535472012-07-04T14:57:00.000-07:002012-07-04T14:58:45.428-07:00Almost like a dessert but very nutritious<div>

Government employees should be exempt from paying taxes to the government entity they are working for whether it's the Federal, State or a local gpvernment.  Instead of paying taxes to that entity, they should just have their paycheck reduced slightly.  If this is the only income they are receiving, they should not be required to file a tax return to the government entity they are employed by.<br>
People who make less of then poverty level income should be exempt from paying taxes.  Poverty level would need to be based on the cost of living in the area where the person lives.  Many of the people who are living on those incomes are going to end up applying for some sort of public assistance.  if they are not taxed that's less public assistance they have to apply for. </p>

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Alfalfa, called by one eminent biologist, </span><b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">"THE GREAT HEALER"</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">, has been enthusiastically backed by many noted doctors, biologists, food and health authorities, who tell us that it contains more of the needed essential elements than almost any other plant or substance. The lack of elements is now considered to be one of the principal contributing causes of most human ailments. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Along with its other amazing qualities, it has been found that alfalfa contains Vitamin U. Dr. Garnett Chaney, well-known food scientist of Stanford University, CA, has published his findings on Vitamin U, and asserts that it has great possibilities as as aid for peptic ulcers. In fact, according to the record, 80% of the ulcers so treated were healed. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Alfalfa is the richest land grown source of trace minerals. The roots of this perennial plant burrow deep into the soil and absorb the important trace minerals and elements such as calcium, potassium, magnesium, iron and phosphorous. Combined with chlorophyll and other organic salts, these factors seem to balance the so-called salt system of the body and act as a natural diuretic. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Alfalfa is most important for its Vitamin A and enzyme content. </span><b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Vitamin A is important in building healthy skin, both outer and inner skin.</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;"> The outer skin complexion improves, dryness is prevented and the skin becomes less susceptible to infection. The inner skin, or mucous membrane, is also greatly aided. The lining of the throat, nose, stomach and intestines are all improved with Vitamin A. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Enzymes are organic catalysts which promote chemical changes. Alfalfa contains the following seven enzymes: Protase, which acts in the digestion of proteins: Coagulase, Emulsin and Peroxidase, which have direct action upon the blood: Amylase and Invertase which act in the conversion of starches and sugars: and Lipase, a fat splitting enzyme. Hence, </span><b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Alfalfa greatly assists digestion both by promoting healthy mucous membrane tissue, and providing enzymes which convert foods into useable form</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">. As many or our enzymes are destroyed by routine cooking and food processing, it is beneficial to take a few alfalfa tabs before each meal. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">The use of alfalfa increases one's alkaline reserves and helps to offset the enervating effect of fatigue acids. It is beneficial to who have kidney or bladder trouble because it makes excretion of the kidney less acid and therefore less irritating to the urinary tract. </span><b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">The U.S.Dept. of Agriculture states that while the average fruit or vegetable is from one to ten units alkaline, alfalfa is 130 units alkaline</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">. This alkaline nature makes the use of anti-acid tablets for digestion unnecessary. </span><br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Chlorophyll is plentiful in alfalfa, and chlorophyll is known as a body cleanser, infection fighter and nature's deodorizer. </b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">This wonder of nature possesses the property of breaking down poisonous carbon dioxide, releasing oxygen in turn, thus inhibiting or reducing the action of anaerobic bacteria. Try this experiment. If your dog has bad odor or bad smelly breath try crushing a couple of alfalfa tabs on his food. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Alfalfa is rich in Vitamin K, which helps develop fibrin, which in turn protects against hemorrhaging by helping the blood to clot properly. It contains 20,000 to 40,000 units of Vitamin K for every 100 grams. </span><br />
<br />
<b style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;">Alfalfa is being used as a means of bringing relief to arthritis sufferers and there are approximately 10,000,000 arthritics today.</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;"> The estimate is that 97% of all individuals over 40 have some form of arthritic disease. These individuals would do their aching joints a blessed favor by consuming some alfalfa in the tablet form. Patients who have had 18 alfalfa tablets, six, three times a day and some extra B-COMPLEX are free from pain and hands are limber. (Catharyn Elwood's "Feel Like a Million".) </span>
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 20px; text-align: left;"><br /></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
For anyone who likes Cream of Wheat but is unsure of how healthy it is
here’s an option. All you need is a
grinder that can grind down to something about as fine as cream of wheat. With that you can grind brown rice, your own
wheat and even black beans to about the same consistency of the cream of wheat
that comes in the box. It is then
available to use. In this form rice and
black beans will cook in about 5 minutes instead of 45 minutes or longer. It cooks to something like the cereal.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
1 part ground wheat or which ever you are using to 3-4 parts water
depending on the desired thickness.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
Bring the water to a boil</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
Add the ground stuff and appropriate seasonings </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
Then stir frequently for about 2 minutes</div>

Possible Cure for Leukemia Found in Fish Oil<br />
by Press Release : Dec 29, 2011 : Pennsylvania State University<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/12/111222103112.htm">http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2011/12/111222103112.htm</a><br />
<b><i>"We have shown that some metabolites of Omega-3 have the ability to

<b>NOTE FROM FOUNDING EDITOR: I'm sorry for those of you whom this discovery
may be coming too late. Though it may take some time before the patent is
approved, if it is granted, its value will be beyond comprehension, both in
what it will accomplish and its monetary worth. -Steve Shultz<br />
</b><br />
(Pennsylvania) - A compound produced from fish oil that appears to target
leukemia stem cells could lead to a cure for the disease, according to Penn
State researchers.<br />
<br />
The compound - delta-12-protaglandin J3, or D12-PGJ3 - targeted and killed the
stem cells of chronic myelogenous leukemia, or CML, in mice, said Sandeep
Prabhu, associate professor of immunology and molecular toxicology in the
Department of Veterinary and Medical Sciences. The compound is produced from
EPA - Eicosapentaenoic Acid - an Omega-3 fatty acid found in fish and in fish
oil, he said. <i>(Photo: The compound shown above is D12-PGJ2, which

</i><br />
"Research in the past on fatty acids has shown the health benefits of
fatty acids on cardiovascular system and brain development, particularly in
infants, but we have shown that some metabolites of Omega-3 have the ability to
selectively kill the leukemia-causing stem cells in mice," said Prabhu.
"The important thing is that the mice were completely cured of leukemia
with no relapse."<br />
<br />
The researchers, who released their findings in the current issue of Blood,
said the compound kills cancer-causing stem cells in the mice's spleen and bone
marrow. Specifically, it activates a gene - p53 - in the leukemia stem cell
that programs the cell's own death.<br />
<br />
"p53 is a tumor suppressor gene that regulates the response to DNA damage
and maintains genomic stability," Prabhu said.<br />
<br />
Killing the stem cells in leukemia, a cancer of the white blood cells, is
important because stem cells can divide and produce more cancer cells, as well
as create more stem cells, Prabhu said.<br />
<br />
The current therapy for CML extends the patient's life by keeping the number of
leukemia cells low, but the drugs fail to completely cure the disease because
they do not target leukemia stem cells, said Robert Paulson, associate
professor of veterinary and biomedical sciences, who co-directed this research
with Prabhu.<br />
<br />
"The patients must take the drugs continuously," said Paulson.
"If they stop, the disease relapses because the leukemia stem cells are
resistant to the drugs."<br />
<br />
Current treatments are unable to kill the leukemia stem cells, Paulson said.<br />
<br />
"These stem cells can hide from the treatment, and a small population of
stem cells give rise to more leukemia cells," said Paulson. "So,
targeting the stem cells is essential if you want to cure leukemia."<br />
<br />
During the experiments, the researchers injected each mouse with about 600
nanograms of D12-PGJ3 each day for a week. Tests showed that the mice were
completely cured of the disease. The blood count was normal, and the spleen
returned to normal size. The disease did not relapse.<br />
<br />
In previous experiments, the compound also killed the stem cells of Friend
Virus-induced leukemia, an experimental model for human leukemia.<br />
<br />
The researchers focused on D12-PGJ3 because it killed the leukemia stem cells,
but had the least number of side effects. The researchers currently are working
to determine whether the compound can be used to treat the terminal stage of
CML, referred to as Blast Crisis. There are currently no drugs available that
can treat the disease when it progresses to this stage.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The researchers, who applied for a patent, are also preparing to test the
compound in human trials.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 16px;">The ticks that transmit Lyme Disease are spreading to more and more places. This increases the chances of getting it. If you or someone you know is unfortunate enough to get Lyme disease, please read the following story. </span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;">

During the past several years, after realizing that a debilitating arthritic ankle was due to Lyme disease, I changed strategies from focusing on controlling inflammation to fighting an infection and started to see immediate improvement. Without using "conventional" antibiotic protocols for advanced Lyme, I increased my <strong><a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=20962" target="_blank">Nutriferon</a></strong> to 4 per day, added d-Lenolate Olive Leaf extract, colloidal silver, Quantum biofeedback therapy and of course too many <strong><a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/welcome.html#/pop_productGuide.s.html" target="_blank">Shaklee supplements</a></strong> to mention. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;">

At my worst, I needed a brace and could barely climb stairs. The pain wasn't responding to any over the counter NSAIDS or Pain Relief. Over the course of a year I had improved dramatically, but still had some evening pain after a full day on my feet, and still needed to be very careful on the stairs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px; text-align: left;">

I added <strong><a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21200" target="_blank">VIVIX</a></strong> to my routine sporadically, and started to notice the lessening of pain. However, in January I started to take Vivix every day faithfully. Sometime in mid-January I had the urge to start “Spring” housecleaning and rearranging! I was sleeping much better and waking at 5:30 all set to begin my day! Lately, I've been able to come down the stairs in the morning carrying things in both hands without rails or leaning on the wall. I notice I am bordering on obnoxiously PERKY, compared to folks around me. I was even dancing vigorously with my 5 year old grandson last Saturday night after a big day at the shop. How FUN and pain free is that! I am so excited about VIVIX, I've been sharing my delight on a daily basis with friends and customers from my women’s retail store. Thank you Shaklee!</div>

The earth has been our home for centuries. Many of us believe it was created by God. Even though we haven’t always treated the
earth with the respect it deserves, it has still done a good job of sustaining
us for centuries. Celebrating the earth is
a good thing to do anytime –including Earthday.
</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
Earthday is only one day each year but that doesn’t mean you can do
nice things for the earth once a year.
It could be a good day to make some lasting changes that will lessen
your footprint on the earth. Maybe you
could make a vow to use public transit more if you’re in an area where it’s
offered. You could walk more and drive
less. Maybe now would even be a good
time to go buy a bike and use that for some of your errands, or even just to
get out. Maybe you could replace your
toxic cleaners with non-toxic cleaners.
Cleaners don’t have to be toxic to be effective. Imagine all the toxins that will no longer be
sent down your drain, or down to the water table. All these are changes that will help reduce
our footprints on the planet. How about
working at home and telecommuting instead of commuting to a workplace. That would also reduce our footprint. There are many jobs or work situations that
will allow for that. If you are in one
of those, talk to your employer about it, maybe start with one or two days per
week and then add to them. Maybe you
will ultimately end up working from home most of the time if not all the
time. Imagine that.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
I have a business where people that can be run from their home and it
also offers a way to eliminate many toxins in your home too. I can show you a way to improve the health of
your family, reduce your footprint on the earth, and allow you to work at home –
eliminating the daily commute. Those of you,
who truly want to make a bigger impact get in, <a href="http://bit.ly/FRKHiI" target="_blank">touch with me</a>.</div>

Hi Rita,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
I had a bone
density scan and I now have normal bone density. In 2007 I was diagnosed with osteopenia
shortly after I found out I had celiac. With the gluten free diet, <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/welcome.html#/pop_productGuide.s.html" target="_blank">Shaklee vitamins</a> and exercise I have been able to improve
my bone density. When I was diagnosed
with osteopenia I was told that the best I could hope for was to maintain the
bone density. I am so happy about these
results!<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">A quick update on my husband, Chuck, who has <b>Parkinson’s</b>. He celebrated his 81<sup>st</sup> birthday last
fall, still bowling (just not as good, but when he has a 'good' night it sure makes
him smile!), still taking only one prescription med (fairly low dose Sinemet for
Parkinson’s). He has no real issues with
Parkinson’s, his cholesterol or his heart.
He puts <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21200" target="_blank">Vivix</a> in his <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=20336" target="_blank">strawberry Cinch Protein shake</a> every morning and takes lots
of Shaklee food supplements morning and evening. He’s no longer biking and dancing,
and has slowed down some--‐but I'll tell ya, for an 81 year old man diagnosed with
PD 8 years ago, he's doing darn good! And his 'lights are still on'! He lost
that mask face symptom after starting <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21200" target="_blank">Vivix</a> in 2008, when this product was first introduced. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Last week for the first time in at least a decade, I got sick with
a nasty cold and congestive flu. I was shocked!
And this was so awful it put me in bed!
I think I caught it at my grandson's state basketball tournament. He was sick and playing with a 101 degree
temperature! I thought I'd let you know
what I did to get over it and maybe this will help others, too. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">When <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=20962">Nutriferon</a>
came out several years ago, I took it to keep my immune system strong while
teaching. That happened, but I was
surprised when taking it also eliminated the seasonal allergies and sinus
problems I'd suffered from for many years.
Since then I've faithfully taken two a day and have never had any more
problems with either of those conditions.
Plus, I haven't had any colds, and that's been a blessing, but I did
catch one last week. So, as I was in
bed, miserable and emptying a kleenex box, I thought that if a person can take
two Tylenol every four hours when sick, then I could surely take two <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=20962">Nutriferon</a>
every four hours. That's what I did and
by the next morning all of the symptoms were totally gone! I was really amazed and so happy that I could
get up and get going again! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">I was sharing this with you this morning, and you both told
similar stories of how <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=20962">Nutriferon</a>
has helped you and others you know with different health conditions. I think
the immune system, just like any part of the body, benefits from being fed what
it needs, and when it's overtaxed, it just needs more help. Sometimes, for me, it's been a matter of experimenting a bit to
discover which <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/welcome.html#/pop_productGuide.s.html">Shaklee
products</a> and what amounts of those products are needed.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">According to Robert Kiyosaki, <b>Business for the 21st century, </b>“Network
Marketing is a powerful business for women.
This may be due in part because it is uniquely compatible with the demands
of a family.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Mr. Kiyosaki also says that the U.S. statistics about women are startling. Here are two he stated: “47% of women over age
50 are single, and are financially responsible for themselves. Women’s retirement income is less than that of
men because as the primary caretaker for the home, a woman is away from the work
force an average of 14.7 years, as compared to 1.6 years for men. Add this fact to the lower salaries women still
receive, and you have retirement benefits that are only about one--‐quarter those
of men. (National Center for Women And RetirementResearch)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"> I am happy to have Shaklee
as mine and my husband's safety net. Because
Network Marketing issuch a powerful business for women it is important to align
yourself with a company with a proven strong and stable track record to invest your

one natural nutrition company, Shaklee has paid more than $5 billion in commissions
all the while helping people like yours and mine live healthier, richer and happier

diagnosed at age 16 with eczema, and at age 20 with lactose in-tolerance,
spastic colon, irritable bowel syndrome, anemia, menstrual problems. After having 3 children, I started adding to
my list of health issues including cervical dysplasia, fibroid tumors, chronic
sinus infections, neck problems, 2 lower herniated discs – causing foot
problems, nerve damage, torn rotator cuff, heart symptoms, rosacea, acid reflux

large baking sheets with parchment paper; set aside. Place raw sugar in a small bowl. To form each cookie, shape ½ Tbsp. dough into
a ball, and then roll in raw sugar to coat.
Transfer to prepared baking sheets, spacing cookies about 2 apart. Bake until just cracked on top, 8 to 10 minutes. (To make larger cookies, use 1 Tbsp. dough for
each ball and bake 10 to 12 minutes.) Set
aside to cool, then dust with powdered sugar if desired.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;">A woman shared with Debbie Garrison an amazing story about her mom
who had been diagnosed with Alzhiemer’s
5 years previous. She and her
sisters were taking care of her at home, and hated the results of the drugs, so
they discontinued them. Their Mom had
not dressed herself in two years, had to be fed all her meals and recognized
very few family members. She had little
or no interest in anyone or anything and rarely spoke. Then the girls started their mother on <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21200">Shaklee
Vivix</a>. One day during the second
month of taking <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21200">Vivix</a>,
their Mom began to talk, and one of the first things she said was “I want to go
to the kitchen and fix myself a peanut butter sandwich.” This, from a lady who had not fixed a meal in
years! After 3 months on <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21200">Vivix</a>,
their Mom was recognizing most of her guests, was feeding herself, and enjoying
her company.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

By Barbara Tucker<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">Don and I have always averaged a total cholestrol reading of around 300 for as long as doctors were testing for cholestrol. We felt that as long as the ratio was good, we didn't need meds.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">When i was 40 years of age, my DR. said if I didn't get my cholestrol down, that in 10 years I would be in deep trouble! I am 75 years of age now and within this past year i have been tested for artery blockage.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"> Both in my heart and in my carotid arteries, and it has been found that all is good . no blockages and a minimal of build-up.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">One of the reasons for not taking statin drugs (besides all the bad effects i read about) was the cost."WITH" our ins., it would cost $135 for each of us. Our budget on soc sec could not sustain $270 monthly.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">But both Don and I started to get concerned because the ratio's were changing.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">We changed ins. and are now allowed genaric meds free of charge.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">our DR was pressuring us, so we said yes, we'd try it. He gave us each a perscription which we filled. I put mine in the drawer and Don took his perscription faithfully every morning.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">I have always had Shaklee's "<a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21219" target="_blank">Cholestol Reduction Complex</a>" on the shelf.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"> the problem i as having was, it said, "take 30 mins. before your meal. </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">I could never get the timing right so gave up taking it most of the time.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">but this time i decided to take it regardless of the timing.. for lunch and dinner.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">My triglycerides went from 210 down to 144 and my diabetes is under control.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">i have never taken meds for it and don't plan to.......ever!</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">shhhh! Don wouldn't want me to say this but he has been in denial for a long time........</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">I asked the DR. quitely if he'd include the sugar test. He winked at me and made a note of it.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">The test showed that he is edging toward diabetes...........</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">his triglycerides went from 181 to 196 so now he listens to me and has cut way back on his refined carbs. and that is all i wanted. there is no need to have diabetes type 2 with a healthy diet.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">Since our results, we are both faithful in taking "Shaklee's <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21219" target="_blank">Cholestrol Reduction Complex</a>" I put it at our plates and we take it before we eat twice a day. we don't worry about the 30 min. wait.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">I carry plenty of it in my purse for those occasions when we decide, on the spur of the moment to have a bit out. We're looking fwd to an even better test next time. </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />

A FLORIDA COURT SETS<br />
ATHEIST HOLY DAY</span></b><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br />
</span><b><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 18pt;"> In Florida , an atheist created a case against Easter and Passover Holy days. He hired an attorney to bring a discrimination case against Christians and Jews and observances of their holy days. The argument was that it was unfair that atheists had no such recognized days. <br />
<br />
The case was brought before a judge. After listening to the passionate presentation by the lawyer, the judge banged his gavel declaring, "Case dismissed!"<br />
<br />
The lawyer immediately stood and objecting to the ruling saying,<br />
"Your honor, How can you possibly dismiss this case? The Christians have Christmas, Easter and others.<br />
The Jews have Passover, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah, yet my client and all other atheists have no such holidays..." </span></b><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br />
</span><b><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 18pt;"> The judge leaned forward in his chair saying, "But you do. Your client, counselor, is woefully ignorant." </span></b><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br />
</span><b><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 18pt;"> The lawyer said," Your Honor, we are unaware of any special observance or holiday for atheists." </span></b><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;"><br />
</span><b><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 18pt;"> The judge said, "The calendar says April 1st is April Fools Day. Psalm 14:1 states, 'The fool says in his heart, there is no God.' Thus, it is the opinion of this court, that, if your client says there is no God, then he is a fool. Therefore,<br />
April 1st is his day.<br />
<br />
Court is adjourned..."<br />

Very well worth reading ..<br />
<br />
The two biggest misconceptions that people have about supplementation;<br />
<br />
#1: Supplementation can cure disease.<br />
<br />
I don't know how many times I've been asked "I have<br />
"disease X". What supplements should I take? - as if<br />
supplements were drugs that can be taken to cure a<br />
disease.<br />
<br />
We shouldn't think of supplements as drugs that cure<br />
diseases. We should think of them as providing the<br />
nutrients that are the building blocks of health - or<br />
perhaps the ammunition that the body uses to fight<br />
diseases.<br />
<br />
Diseases, after all, are an abnormal state of being,<br />
and our bodies have an amazing capacity to fight those<br />
diseases.<br />
<br />
When we have infections or cancer our body activates<br />
its immune system to fight it.<br />
<br />
When we have inflammation our body tries to put out the<br />
fire.<br />
<br />
When we have damage to our DNA - our genetic<br />
information - our body tries to repair it. The list is<br />
almost endless. Our bodies are wondrously designed!<br />
<br />
Our immune systems require nutrients like protein, B<br />
vitamins, antioxidants, zinc and iron.<br />
<br />
The omega-3 fatty acids, anti-oxidants and polyphenols<br />
like resveratrol are anti-inflammatory.<br />
<br />
Nutrients like antioxidants and polyphenols support DNA<br />
repair.<br />
<br />
So proper diet and supplementation are not "magic<br />
bullets" that cure diseases. They are simply the<br />
building blocks that allow the body to do what it does<br />
best. And because no two of us are alike the nutrients<br />
that we need the most to allow our bodies to do their<br />
job efficiently may be different for each one of us.<br />
<br />
So while there is no magic food or supplement that will<br />
cure a specific disease, a healthy diet and a holistic<br />
approach to supplementation can often work wonders.<br />
<br />
#2) It doesn't matter what you eat.<br />
<br />
This is the flip side of the coin. I often come across<br />
people who have been told by the "experts" that the<br />
cause of their disease was not related to diet so they<br />
shouldn't worry about what they eat and supplementation<br />
will not do any good.<br />
<br />
Let's take the most extreme example - genetically<br />
caused diseases or serious degenerative diseases like<br />
multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's for which the causes<br />
are still not fully understood.<br />
<br />
It is generally true that these diseases were not<br />
caused by poor diet (MS may be the exception because<br />
there is some evidence that it can be caused by<br />
inadequate vitamin D during childhood). And I know many<br />
people who take the "expert's" advice to heart and eat<br />
whatever they like and consider supplementation a waste<br />
of money.<br />
<br />
Is that a sound approach? Let's consider.<br />
<br />
Any nutritionist will tell you that an inadequate diet<br />
can lead to malaise, low energy, inflammation, weakened<br />
immune system and impaired wound healing - just to name<br />
a few maladies. Even if you don't end up with the<br />
symptoms of a nutritional deficiency a poor diet can<br />
rob you of energy and vitality.<br />
<br />
If you layer the consequences of a poor diet on top of<br />
the underlying disease, your chances of being able to<br />
cope with the disease and function optimally are<br />
greatly diminished.<br />
<br />
I have come across many people with very serious<br />
diseases who are able to function at a very high level<br />
through proper diet and a holistic approach to<br />
supplementation.<br />

Diet and supplementation did not cure their disease as<br />
they quickly discover if they stop supplementing and go<br />
back to the way they used to eat, but in many cases you<br />
would consider them to be perfectly healthy as long as<br />
they keep doing what they have been doing.<br />
<br />
So what is the bottom line for you?<br />
<br />
1) There is no perfect food or supplement that is<br />
capable of curing disease, but if you give your body<br />
the nutrients that it needs it often has the ability to<br />
cure itself.<br />
<br />
2) Proper diet and supplementation can make a<br />
difference even if the disease was not caused by poor<br />
nutrition.<br />
<br />
3) Each of us have unique nutritional needs so in both<br />
cases a holistic approach to diet and supplementation<br />

Please read!<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">Just a couple short years ago, I went through one of the darkest times in my life. I’ve never really written about it in full detail, but I feel like there are many other people out there who struggle with this that need to know there IS Hope! It doesn’t have to be this way forever.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">After losing our son Hosea, experiencing a couple job losses, a move, and another pregnancy and birth, my body said, “All done!” It was bad enough to be walking through the deepest loss I could ever imagine when I found our one month old baby boy’s lifeless body in his baby bed, but now my body was manifesting all sorts of symptoms that left me pretty much dysfunctional in normal, daily life. With three other children to care for, a business to run, and a husband to love, I felt desperate for something to change!</span> <br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">It was immediately following the birth of our 4th child, Asher, that I started to experience unbelievable pain. I had pain from head to toe…so bad my hair even hurt. Light hurt. It was like the light penetrated through my body and would send shooting pain down my spine and through my skull. The pain was so intense that I lived in a constant state of nauseousness. I dreaded going to sleep at night because the sheets hurt and my pillow </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">hurt. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">I would wake up in worse pain</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;"> then </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">when</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">I laid down I felt so bad for my husband who patiently loved me through every morning episode of tears and working my feet to the floor to take the first painful step. The worst was waking up with a migraine after a full night’s sleep. I had somewhere between 15-20 days with a migraine every month. I would get one and it would last sometimes for 4-5 days. Nathan had to come pick me up from stores at times because I would have a</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px;">migraine so bad that I couldn’t see straight.</span><br />

I was only 28. How in the world was I going to be able to take care of an infant, play with him on the floor as he got older, play basketball with him as he grew up? I lived scared to death that I would never be normal again. I braced myself every time the girls ran to hug me. The pain shot through my body as their little arms wrapped around my neck. What in the world was happening to me and would I ever feel better? I was 28 and felt like I was 90! Doing normal, every day things were impossible. Physically I was a wreck, and this wreaked havoc on me emotionally and mentally.</div><div style="background-color: white; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">The label I received for all the pain was “Fibromyalgia.” This is basically what they tell you that you have when they can’t figure out what in the world is going on in your body.</div><div style="background-color: white; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">It was at this all time low in my life, physically, emotionally, and mentally, that I started to ask God if He was a healer. Does He still really heal people today? This was a question I was desperate to have answered….and I needed a “yes.” I knew if He didn’t heal me, I wouldn’t make it much longer. I really and truly felt at times like I would die from the pain.</div><div style="background-color: white; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">This was an important discovery for me on my journey with fibromyalgia: <strong style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Fibromyalgia is </strong><strong style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">really nothing more than a physical response of the body when you have had internal trauma (oftentimes suppressed) or intense stress or a long period of time.</strong> This is why a doctor can not just give you a pill to make it all go away. They can give you pills to MASK the pain but you will have to stay on it for the rest of your life. It doesn’t HEAL it or take it away because so much of this illness is an internal issue, I really believe. Others may have different experiences, but this is what my own personal experience was.</div><div style="background-color: white; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">In my case, my physical body literally held on to the stress and trauma at the cellular level and it manifested in my body through pain, fatigue, and migraines. We are 3 part beings…body, soul, and spirit. And what is happening in one part most often effects the other two parts. We can’t separate or compartmentalize our lives. It all functions together as one. It’s like if you have a stressful day at work…what does your physical body do? It may respond with a headache or exhaustion. What does your spirit do? You tend to be on edge, easily explode, ect. It all works together.</div><div style="background-color: white; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 24px; padding-bottom: 15px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><em style="border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">Below is how God personally DID heal me.

This is the easiest one to attach because it simply involves adding in high powered nutrients that will combat the stress, fatigue, and pain. The other two parts may take more time to work through, so my philosophy was, “While I’m working out the stuff in my head and heart, I’m going to start feeding my body the right things so I can get somewhere!” My “magic” concoction was actually very simple and surprisingly effective!! I was desperate and would have eaten a cow if you told me that would help me.

Ever heard the old proverb, “Bitterness rots the bones.” ?? Bitterness and unforgiveness have been scientifically proven to cause diseases such as arthritis and even cancer.

They come in very handy for those times when you need something to eat NOW and can't stop and cook something. Many people reach for the closest thing available to them and that often isn't a good choice.<br />

(NEW Cholesterol Reduction Complex) from a Shaklee Member<br />
I am so excited!<br />
I finally got my doctor off my back regarding my cholesterol. As you know it is in my genes and have been fighting this for years. My doctor kept telling me to increase my medicine and I wanted to get off it. I refused to use more than 40 mg and told her to give me a year and would get it down. Last March my numbers were high.<br />
<br />
Cholesterol was 271<br />
HDL 80<br />
LDL 169<br />
Past years the numbers were not much better. I was excited when they came out with the <a href="http://gethealthynaturally.myshaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=21219">NEW Cholesterol Reduction Complex</a> last year and thought that would help. Unfortunately it dropped numbers a little but still not enough.<br />
<br />
After we talked I was kicking myself. Shaklee is not medication and I could take more than the recommended dosage. So I increased my Cholesterol to two 15 minutes before each meal. [I learned from Barb's email that she was told taking 15 min before meal was ok and set my alarm on my phone so would remember].<br />
<br />
I continued the lecithin and added two stress tabs and increased my fiber and exercise. [all as you recommended] In the past I was eating really good and exercising 5-6 times a week and my numbers were still not great.<br />
<br />
Well it all worked because I just got my new numbers.<br />
Cholesterol went from 271 to 191<br />
HDL Cholesterol went from 80 to 70 and<br />
LDL Cholesterol went from 169 to 97.<br />
<br />
I understand my doctor being worried knowing my little sister had a heart attack 2 years ago. She also has the high Cholesterol issue. This worries my doctor thinking this will happen to me. Difference is I am taking Shaklee and she is not.<br />
