  • 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 ...

  • The DNA of Top Achievers

    Of course by now we are all becoming aware of DNA. It is the source code that determines who we are. When we look at DNA we can see what a person will look like, what diseases they may come down with, etc. This has been a tremendous breakthrough for scientists and will continue to be so for some time, I think.

    This got me to thinking about what makes up those who are top achievers. Is there a "DNA" to them? Obviously, all top achievers wouldn't have the same literal DNA but what about a figurative DNA? Is there a common "gene" that they all have? Are there common "genes" perhaps? I th ...

  • Genes and Work Ethic

    If you have good genes, you are blessed. If they are exceptional, you might be successful on that alone.

    Add work ethic and you will be successful and remarkable.

    On Thursday, Sept. 9, 2004, Linda Green retired after 23 years as a dancer in “Jubilee!” the longest-running production of its kind in Las Vegas.

    At 51, Green was the oldest continually working showgirl.

    A local columnist dubbed her the “Cal Ripkin Jr. of showgirls,” after baseball’s record holder for most consecutive games played.

    In certain respects, her achievement is more remarkable.

    In her ...

    An insecure role for Securin in chromosome segregation
    A paper published in the open access journal PLoS Biology shows that previously reported chromosome instability and loss due to Securin gene knockout is a transient effect; human cells may have compensatory mechanisms to overcome Securin gene loss.


    Y Chromosome May Not Be Doomed
    The human Y chromosome -- the DNA chunk that makes a man a man -- has lost so many genes over evolutionary time that some scientists have suspected it might disappear in 10 million years. But a new study says it'll stick around. By Associated Press

  • How To Invite Positive Change In Your Life

    Gnothi seauton,, said Socrates. “Know thyself.”

    These words remain as true today as in the days when the portly philosopher in his rumpled tunic sauntered through the dusty agora of ancient Athens and pondered aloud about the riddles of the human experience.

    “What is man?” he asked. “What can he become?”

    This is a fascinating question. Once we set out to know ourselves, we also pave the way to become more authentic and powerful in our lives.

    While we may appear predisposed, due to genetics or environmental factors, to certain character traits, we are, as far as I can ...

    Powering up hand held wireless devices in the field for Business Uses, Educational Issues, Monitoring Sensors for Security Purposes or Blue Force Tracking for military troops in the field for net-centric warfare is possible even in the most remote locations can be possible using simple principles which will provide small amounts of energy. There are a few new innovative ways to do this, which appear to have been overlooked. One is to have an inflatable sphere or beach ball with inner reflective skin, which is reflective on the inside, which can take on light waves or UV from the sun or ener ...
