Eye Exercises Video With Jane
I love this video of eye exercises. Very informative and effective and pretty quick, I think only about 8 minutes. Great especially, if like me, you spend way too much time looking at the computer.

The irony is that he was working as an alternative healer and psychologist right in downtown [...]
Avoid Mosquitos with Vit B1
Skip the DEET, the Deep Woods Off, and all the other toxic bug repellents, at least as far as avoiding mosquitoes goes. At least, that’s what some folks say. They say to bulk up on thiamin, which is also known as Vitamin B1.
Since DEET can cause skin cancer, it’s best to avoid [...]
Salmonella Outbreak Hits Below the Belt
