  • The Prison Mirror (part of Prison Series)
    The true measure of social consciousness is prisons. They tell more about society than any travelogue possibly could. They are the product of ignorance as a tradition and undeniable social regression. Send a law breaker to prison and convert him to a vicious vengeful beast. Then send him back where he came from. Let the taxpayer suffer from his crime. Let the taxpayer pay for his maintenance and conversion. Let the taxpayer support his family. Let his children grow up with no father. See if they dare follow in his footsteps. Let the taxpayer pay for any feeble attempt at his rehabilitation. Le ...

  • Weight Gain Principles

    It's an unfortunate reality that throughout the years there has been a growth of strength training techniques without any scientific proof to back them up. As in life, and in training the simplest is always the best. Have a look at the facts presented in this outline of weight gain principles and make up your own mind.

    Here are a few Scientific Guidelines for strength training that have always been around but are not followed by many training systems these days.

    1. Limited Energy Level

    A strength-training program should be short and simple as you only have a limited amount ...

  • RFID: A Smart Tag Primer
    Good things come in small packages. This familiar clich usually refers to precious stones, but today it's taken on new meaning, in that small things are now protecting items we deem valuable.

    Analysts estimate that the retail industry loses US $50B a year to theft and up to ten times that much to counterfeiting. High-end products such as cosmetics, fragrances and pharmaceuticals are most likely to be stolen or counterfeited. Many retailers and manufacturers believe that this big problem may have a tiny solution RFID smart tags.

    RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) is an autom ...

  • The Tibetan and Chinese health Secret: If you read one health report a year, this should be it!

    It seems as if the health of America is failing. One million Americans will die of circulatory disease this year. Six hundred thousand lives will be cut short by cancer as well. How did we get in such a mess? Im not sure. But there is a way out that is starting to generate a real buzz! Since CNN and the gang wont talk about it I decided to write is article.

    Dear readers, I want to introduce you to the most nutrient dense food on the earth; wolfberries, or more specifically Lycium Barbarum.

    The western scientific community have verified what Chinese and Tibetan health practitio ...

  • Controlling Acne
    Acne...it affects a majority of teenagers and many adults well into middle age. It is dreaded and despaired over by many who suffer from this common skin condition. Clearing acne begins by understanding what acne really is and what triggers it. Then we will consider how it can be controlled by lifestyle choices, skin care choices and wise use of make-up.

    Who suffers from it?

    Teenagers struggle with acne, but so do many adults. Acne breakouts can result from fluctuating hormone levels at various stages of life, such as puberty, pregnancy or menopause. Outwardly, acne can reveal internal s ...

  • Male Mid-Life Crisis

    Men notice that their former youthful exuberance and ravenous virility are slowly diminishing when they reach the age of 40 and onwards. This is when males experience hair loss, bone loss, insomnia or other sleeping problems, and problems with memory and calculation.

    They often feel cranky, fatigued, and less motivated. Or sometimes these are accompanied by sweating and flushing, loss of muscle mass and strength, aches and pains, increased fat, decreased sexual performance or erectile dysfunction, and depression.

    Most men who reach midlife will basically experience one or all of ...
