Herbal Remedies.......

I have had the occasion to visit a health food store down through the years. They have many different products and can very well equip you with whatever your looking for in the way of health. I was interested in loosing weight and would look for natural remedies instead of those harsh diets or weight loss pills that can really attack your body. Recently, I came across a Herbal Remedies Elite Store which is online. Since I've always be wary of these online stores, I made sure to look around and see what they offered. I found them to have products for men's health as well as women's health. They even offer a lip plumper for women to use on their lips, and fill out the lines of aging.

Wet Weather

This week has really brought in the "fall" weather, with more rain than usual. It's been nice and crisp in the early mornings the last few days. I actually had to grab a cover last night. I've been sleeping with the windows partially open at night for the fresh breeze. I knew that when the State Fair started that the weather would change. I was glad to get the nice rain we got last weekend, it softened up the hard ground and kept my plants, from dying. Now here it is raining again this week, but I'm not griping, we need it.

Autopsies are planned for Monday.

Rare Coins......

Are you into to rare coin collecting? I'm sure you have a great portfolio, to back up your investments. A collection of rare coins can be handed down from generation to generation, and develop even great value. I checked out a site that has been in business for quite awhile now. They deal in precious metals and have a good supply of rare coins on hand. It’s got a scrolling marquee, with the precious metals and coins with their price’s listed. Look at the American Gold Eagle coin, available in units of 10 coins in the US at $50. face value, for personal delivery. If you deal in silver bars or rare coins then you should have a good supply on hand should this type of recession happen. Silver today, is in short supply and very hard to find making the rare coins even more desirable to collectors. You can buy these metals from Monaco Rare Coins and have them delivered to your bank or institution according to your specifications. It is a service that deals with some of the finest rare coins in the world.

Colon Cleanse........

I'm sure you've seen all the different advertisements, lately about cleansing out you body through a colon cleanse. The different products that are being offered are down right scary. I find that it's better to get more than one opinion about products like this. Going to different website's and doing research is the best thing, when looking for colon cleansing reviews . I suggest doing this before ever investing or taking any product that has such extreme effects on the body.

Thounsands Flee.............

Tens of thousands of people have fled Pakistan's lawless tribal region ahead of an expected army offensive, officials said Wednesday, as fighter jets pounded Taliban positions. However, a wave of Taliban attacks in Pakistan killing 125 people since last Monday has stoked fears that the long-awaited ground offensive is looming, sending more people fleeing to neighbouring districts.

Authorities have registered 90,000 people displaced from South Waziristan on the Afghan border since August, with a fresh exodus after a weekend hostage siege at army headquarters near Islamabad that deeply embarrassed the military.

Free Traffic/Links

I've been trying to get my blog's ranks up, to a decent level. Unfortunatley, once you get them up, it's hard to keep them there. I've used search engines, links and such, but the page ranks are still languishing. This free web directory offers free links to help get your website or blog's rank up. They also have paid links, if you are interested in them. I hope it will help me, with my blogs, because I could use the extra income, they help produce.

Bar chart showing the monthly US unemployment rate since Aug 2008. Finance chiefs said the global economic crisis was far from over as ministers from the Group of Seven leading rich economies met in Istanbul amid concern about the weak US dollar.
More than 80 percent of economists believe the recession is over and an expansion has begun, but they expect the recovery will be slow as worries over unemployment and high federal debt persist. The forecasters upgraded the economic outlook for the next several quarters. Forecasters now expect the economy, as measured by gross domestic product, to advance at a 2.9 percent pace in the second half of the year, after falling for four straight quarters for the first time on records dating to 1947. They expect a 3 percent gain in 2010.

A worker of the Afghan Election Commission counts the suspicious presidential ballots during the recounting possess at the main election office in Kabul, Afghanistan. Election workers began recounting ballots from the disputed Aug. 20 presidential election Monday, and a senior official said he expected to announce late next week whether President Hamid Karzai had won or would face a runoff with his main rival.

The U.S. and its international partners are anxious for a U.N.-backed commission to wrap up its investigation into fraud charges and determine whether President Hamid Karzai won or must face second-place finisher Abdullah Abdullah in a runoff. Efforts to resolve Afghanistan's fraud-marred presidential election suffered new setbacks Monday when one of two Afghans on the commission looking into alleged cheating resigned over "foreign interference" and U.N. officials acknowledged that errors and miscommunication had plagued the investigation.

Dig This........

 Nissan Land Glider
Nissan Land Glider

The Land Glider electric vehicle tilts from side to side, sashaying into curves by up to a 17-degree angle, as though showing off in a fashion statement that it's zero-emissions.

The wheel segments of the car can move separately from the cabin, allowing the car, still an experimental concept model, to sway and swerve, almost like a motorcycle. The car glided around on a test course at Nissan's design center, outside Tokyo, leaning slowly to one side, and then the other, as it turned tight corners. It is 43 inches wide, and has sensors to calculate speed and level of lean required for corners. It can maneuver through narrow streets and fit into tight parking spaces.

People aboard sit in a line, one behind the other, not next to each other as in traditional two-seaters.

Utility poles lie buckled in the wake of Typhoon Melor.

The storm stayed west of Tokyo, but still caused enough trouble to shut down trains for a time and snarl commuter traffic. Numerous flights were canceled and delayed at the city's two major airports. In western and northern Japan, Melor tore roofs off homes, downed power lines and flooded roads.

The storm contributed to the deaths of 54-year-old newspaper delivery man in Wakayama, who ran into a fallen tree, and a 69-year-old man from Saitama, who was crushed by a tree.

By late Thursday, Melor had weakened to a tropical storm and was heading out to sea.

Another Quake......

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center immediately issued a regional tsunami warning for 11 nations and territories, including Vanuatu, the Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea, Nauru, Fiji and Kiribati. A tsunami watch, a lower level of alert, was in effect as far away as Australia and New Zealand. There were no immediate reports of injury or damage from officials in Vanuatu, a chain of 83 islands. It lies just over 1,400 miles (2,200 kilometers) northeast of Sydney, Australia.

The latest warning comes just two weeks after a quake of magnitude 8.3 rocked the South Pacific near Samoa, sparking tsunami waves that killed at least 178 people and devastated coastal villages in Samoa, American Samoa and in northern Tonga.

I worry that this one will be just as bad as the other one..............

Tony Fein, an Iraq war veteran and NFL rookie linebacker, has died of unexplained causes after collapsing at a friend’s house in what his agent said appears to be “an accidental situation.” Fein, 27, an undrafted rookie free agent from Mississippi, was lying face down and unconscious, vomiting and barely breathing when medics arrived at a house outside Port Orchard on the Kitsap Peninsula just before 9 a.m PDT Tuesday. The medics put a breathing tube down Fein’s throat after he stopped breathing and administered medication, but he went into cardiac arrest during the drive to Harrison Medical Center in Bremerton, across Puget Sound from Seattle, and was pronounced dead at the hospital at 9:48 a.m. PDT Tuesday

Second Typhoon Hits........

Typhoon Parma slammed into the Philippines on Saturday, ripping off roofs, toppling power pylons and swelling rivers in the country's mountainous north. At least two people were killed. The storm — the country's second in eight days — cut a path across the northeastern tip of the main island of Luzon and was headed in the direction of Taiwan, where evacuations of southern villages were under way.

Chicago had long been seen as a front-runner and got the highest possible level of support—from President Barack Obama himself. But he only spent a few hours in the Danish capital where the vote was held and left before the result was announced. Former IOC member Kai Holm said that the brevity of his appearance may have counted against him. Now, Chicago can only rue what might have been. And Obama’s gamble of expending his own political capital on the bid backfired.

Loosing Weight

Looking at the recent events, I would say that most of the people in the tsunami areas hardest hit, won't be worried about loosing weight, but rather finding necessary food to stay alive. Those of us who are doing well and are not affected by the weather situations, will probably need some form of weight loss pills . They say that American's are among some of the fattest people in the world. We love to eat, and do so.
