Ever wonder why I’m able to post so frequently? Here’s part of the secret you may want to implement for yourself…
This week one of my eager beaver overachiever students is trying to implement something that I mentioned in class last week; namely, how you can send content directly from Google Reader to WordPress.com. I sent her a link from an article that I found that she’s having trouble implementing my suggestions. Despite the fact that we haven’t covered WordPress in class yet, I’m going to take pity on her [ :-D ] and do a screen cast with complete instructions. Here goes:

My first car was a 1972 Pinto. It had an 11 gallon tank that cost $5.50 to fill when I was making about $10 per hour!

Oopsie! San Diego set all its fireworks off at once
Ka-boom. That pretty much sums up San Diego’s July Fourth fireworks extravaganza. A technical malfunction condensed the entire 23 minute long fireworks show into one large explosion when all the devices went off at the same time. Instagram user Ben Baller captured a photo of the 15 second long blast that has racked up more than 10,000 likes.
Great fireworks show or greatest fireworks show?

Kick BPAs to the Curb
Dr. Frank Lipman writes:
Today we’re sharing crucial information about avoiding BPAs, a harmful chemical found in plastics and canned food. Armed with this knowledge, you can take simple steps to protect your health. Remember—your health is the greatest wealth!
When it comes to BPAs (bisphenol A), I really can’t say a good word about them. They’re bad for the earth and terrible for our bodies, so the less we ingest (knowingly or not) the better. When you feel as strongly about sustaining wellness as I do, the best way to deal with BPAs is to get them out of your life.
And how do I loathe BPAs? Let me count the ways. Biosphenol A is an industrial chemical, an endocrine disruptor, a suspected carcinogen, and proven synthetic hormone that mimics the effects of estrogen! BPAs have been linked to increased risks for heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, as well as liver and brain problems. BPAs are also credited with contributing to erectile dysfunction and the growth of breast cancer cells in adults plus developmental problems in children. Need I go on? Clearly, it’s time for all of us to kick it to the curb.” Get more here: Kick BPAs to the Curb « Positively Positive.
Seven Habits to Incorporate Today to Be More Successful Tomorrow
Habits are behaviors we choose both consciously and subconsciously. They define the outcome of our days. Positive, productive habits give us better outcomes than destructive habits, and the most powerful habits are those that begin with understanding and controlling your thoughts. Though the following habits are not often discussed in common dialogue, they have been critical in all of my work and personal transformation. Each can be quickly adapted and easily applied—so long as the ego does not overrule your desires.” Get the rest here: Seven Habits to Incorporate Today to Be More Successful Tomorrow « Positively Positive.

Claim Your Day of Rest for Improved Health and Productivity
Tabitha Green writes:
My parents were firm believers in honoring the Sabbath. Coming from the Christian tradition, this meant that we observed a day of rest on Sundays. On this day, no household chores (aside from cooking and washing the dishes) could take place. No knitting or mowing the lawn. And absolutely no shopping.
Now, the shopping part was not much of a choice during my childhood, because I lived in Sweden, where the stores were closed on Sundays.
However, as I grew older – and stores started being open on Sundays – these rules started to annoy me a bit. What’s so bad about going shopping on a Sunday? What if I need to do homework?
When I left for college, I rebelled against the day of rest. I sat in the library every Sunday from the time it opened until it closed at midnight (yes, I was a really fun college student…).
While I supported my husband through graduate school, I would often babysit on Sundays. It was a great way to get some extra cash, but not very restful.
And when I entered the management level in the corporate world, weekends didn’t really exist anymore. I used to joke about the fact that “it doesn’t really matter what day it is, because I’m always working.” Get the rest here: Claim Your Day of Rest for Improved Health and Productivity.
